Our Favorite Things!

We're a podcast attempting to keep up with the pop culture references on Gilmore Girls. Each episode, we chose a new reference from the show, be it a movie, tv show, or work out guru, dive into the media, and explain to you and ourselves what Lorelai meant by it.

TV & Film

TV Reviews

Sorry if you thought we had a deep Rory and Lorelai thing—because we totally do! We're holding hands as we drive straight into our newest pop culture ref, the 1991 crime classic Thelma & Louise. What does this movie have to say about female friendships? What did we think of THAT ending? And is Rory totally a Thelma? 
We Wholeheartedly Recommend: The Sound of Music Sing-Along, Persuasion by Jane Austen
Other pop culture we ref: Hart to Hart, Frank Sinatra, Madonna, Happy Gilmore, Alien, Holes

ep 139: I'm sorry if you thought we had some kind of deep Thelma and Louise thing going

Because Barbra is queen! In the first pop culture ref of our final season, we finally watch and discuss The Way We Were. This '70s weepy features a Palladino-esque heroine, Robert Redford in a cable knit sweater, heartache, laugher, and Communism all in one neat package! We discuss the cultural changes in parenting since the 1970s, why the Gilmores reference this movie several times in the series, and, yes, Robert Redford in that cable knit sweater.
We Wholeheartedly Recommend: Adventure Time, The Fall Guy (Taylor's review)
Other pop culture we ref: The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel; Out of Africa; They Shoot Horses, Don't They?; Taylor Swift; Antonio Banderas

ep 138: Do you remember in The Way We Were...?
