With special guest Sarah Schroeder, Anna and Derek talk about the success of Madonna as an actress and its relationship to her celebrity, if women today can still relate to Roberta's 1980s housewife malaise and much more during their discussion of Desperately Seeking Susan (1985).

Anna Keizer and Derek Dehanke are the co-hosts of ‘80s Movie Montage. The idea for the podcast came when they realized just how much they talk – a lot – when watching films from their favorite cinematic era. Their wedding theme was “a light nod to the ‘80s,” so there’s that, too. Both hail from the Midwest but have called Los Angeles home for several years now. Anna is a writer who received her B.A. in Film/Video from Columbia College Chicago and M.A. in Film Studies from Chapman University. Her dark comedy short She Had It Coming was an Official Selection of 25 film festivals with several awards won for it among them. Derek is an attorney who also likes movies. It is a point of pride that most of their podcast episodes are longer than the movies they cover.

Sarah Schroeder has called Los Angeles home for 22 years. She is a mother to a toddler and a pit mix, wife to a dude, lover of animals and television, friend to all. Professionally, she is the Director of Alumni Engagement for Columbia College Chicago. You can find her on Twitter (@Soignee) and LinkedIn (linkedin.com/in/sarahschroeder).
