On this episode of Excuse My Grandma, Kim and Grandma Gail catch up after the weekend—Grandma’s still going to themed parties, and Kim relaxed with her boyfriend after a stressful hacking incident. They also break down a few headlines from the week, including Tinder's new Double Date feature (read here) why young Americans are partying less. (Read the article here!)

They also break down the Coldplay cheating scandal and the latest from Bachelor in Paradise with the Golden cast. Later, they listen to a listener voicemail asking for advice after being ghosted by her boyfriend of 8 months, and Grandma gives her take—direct, honest, and exactly what you’d expect.

On this episode of Excuse My Grandma, Kim and Grandma Gail are joined by the iconic Candace Bushnell—the woman who changed the way we talk about dating with Sex and the City . Kim and Gail catch up on their July 4th weekends (including an unplanned dinner at the same restaurant), then dive into Sex and the City nostalgia: landlines, Manolos, cosmos, and breakups via Post‑it notes.

Later, they’ll ask Candace about her striking, candid essay in The Cut—“Sex After 60 in Sag Harbor”—in which she explores the sometimes bleak, often hilarious realities of dating in your 60s: age gaps, ghosting, male entitlement, and the bittersweet liberty of loving—or not needing—to love again. Read it here: https://www.thecut.com/article/candace-bushnell-dating-after-60-hamptons-love-sex-aging.html

Stay tuned for a conversation about what’s changed—and what hasn’t—when it comes to relationships in your 60s, writing your own story, and finding connection in places like Palm Beach, Manhattan, and beyond.

In this episode of Excuse My Grandma, Kim and Grandma Gail are joined by a very special guest: Broadway producer Henry Tisch! Henry is the co-founder of Key to the City Productions and just celebrated a huge win at the 2025 Tony Awards for The Picture of Dorian Gray. Naturally, Kim and Grandma had a lot of questions.

They chat all about Henry’s path to producing, his time at Disney Theatrical, and what it takes to bring a hit to the stage. They also dive into what the Tony Awards are really like behind the scenes, the excitement of awards season, and the making of Dorian Gray, which has quickly become one of the buzziest shows on Broadway.
