Adam, Chad, and Jason host a preview episode for Season 2 of the Rental Return podcast series. First, the host share three of their latest VHS finds. Next, they discuss the skyrocketing market for VHS tapes and the insane prices common tapes that are sealed or graded are fetching today. Then, Jason reads some newspaper stories from the '80s which give insight into the early rental market, how studios tried to secure revenue for tapes, and the effect of VCRs becoming a household item. Finally, you'll get a sneak peak of Video Heroes for Season 2.
