THE MICHAEL DOUGLAS TRILOGY: When Did We Have the Power? with guest Jasmine Bridges

This week we're getting into some cringe-rotic territory with a conversation about THE MICHAEL DOUGLAS TRILOGY: Fatal Attraction (1987), Basic Instinct (1992), and Disclosure (1994).

Spanning from the Reagan era into the Clinton years, this trilogy features so many flavors of feminist backlash. These films have different directors, writers, producers, and co-stars, but what they have in common is The Michael Douglas Character and his lady problems.

To help us understand all this, we called on Jasmine Bridges, Madeline's best friend since the 9th grade, to tell us about the erotic thrillers of this time, and much more.

Spoilers: Michael Douglas's butt, career women, family values, #believemen, virtual reality, Dennis Miller, sexy VHS covers, power mullets.

Jasmine Bridges' beige flag is having a background in psychology but forcing everyone she meets to take online personality tests. When it comes to TV, she lives for trash and aliens.
