ABOUT THIS EPISODE OF OBSESSED PODCAST:
Television has long been called a mirror of society — but has it really reflected our families, or reshaped them entirely? In this fascinating episode of The Get Obsessed Podcast, host Julie Lokun, JD, sits down with Deborah Griffiths, creator of the powerful new show Bent Not Broken: Starting Over After Divorce, to explore how TV has shaped — and sometimes shattered — the image of the American family.
From Leave It to Beaver and Father Knows Best to The Brady Bunch, The Cosby Show, Roseanne, Modern Family, and even The Kardashians, Julie and Deborah journey through the decades — unpacking what each era’s most popular shows reveal about gender roles, family values, race, divorce, and cultural change.
This episode is a nostalgic, eye-opening trip through television history that will make you laugh, question, and maybe even rethink what “family” really means in the media age.
