FAMILY TRADE
Tuesdays at 8:00 pm ET/PT
At G-Stone Motors, a state-of-the-art car dealership in Middlebury, Vermont, the saying is, "We'll take anything in trade." And they mean it. Founder Gardner Stone will trade you a beautiful new car or truck for anything you've got that he thinks he can sellpigs, a hot air balloon, coffins, maple syrup, dolls, a shoe collection. But Stone's son Todd and daughter Darcy, who work with him in the business, usually have very different ideas about what makes a good trade, and they have the unenviable task of re-selling whatever their father has bought. Each 30-minute episode will feature the outrageous, hilarious, hotly contested barter stories at G-Stone Motorswith a simmering stew of family drama cooking alongside.
Family Trade is produced by Eli Frankel's
Rogue Atlas Productions in association with Lionsgate, with Frankel as Executive Producer.
