Soap operas are known for drama, romance, cliffhangers... and outrageous moments. This week's edition of Soap Central Live has them all.

As Americans hit the roads, beaches, and mountains for the long Memorial Day weekend, we’re reminded that the hard-working actors and actresses of our favorite soaps don’t often get time off. Unlike the primetime shows, which have been wrapping up their seasons all month long, soap operas air Monday through Friday almost every week of the year. Buzzworthy Radio host Na’Vell Lee drops by to chat with Dan about the latest soap goings on. They’ll also take calls all hour long to find out what fans are looking forward to from their favorite soaps this summer – and find out what’s had fans talking over the past few weeks.
