We Have Notes with Abby Gardner

There was too much good stuff to edit down, so here’s a continuation of Abby’s conversation with her friend Bonnie Morrison where they get into Prince Harry, Spare, the timing of telling one’s story, the Anderson Cooper interview, the royal fairytale + our own role in perpetuating it, and more.

Abby’s back in LA for some shows with the British man—and some notes on Daisy Jones and the Six, Kaia Gerber, and Apple Martin’s fashion debut. Then she’s joined by her good friend Bonnie Morrison to talk about their obsession with terrible romance fiction podcasts, Austin Butler’s accent, storytelling for women in their 40s, the MTV of our youth, the uniqueness of Gen X's perspective, and so much more that there’s even a part two coming soon.

Abby’s got notes on the premiere ep of The Last of Us on HBO, the silly fun of The Traitors on Peacock, and the riveting novel Notes on an Execution by Danya Kukafka. Then she’s joined by her friend Amber Katz to discuss S2 of the Netflix show Ginny & Georgia, which is somehow a mix of Gilmore Girls, My So-Called Life, Mermaids, Hart of Dixie, and Dexter?!? They also get into the new Bernie Madoff docuseries on Netflix, some initial thoughts on Prince Harry’s Spare, and more.

Abby gets into the reactions to Taylor Swift, director, (also happy birthday blondie!), the return of the Golden Globes, this season of White Lotus and Meghann Fahy’s rising star, The Menu, Fleishman Is In Trouble, Riches, and more fun ramblings.

Abby’s got notes on Firefly Lane, My Unorthodox Life, and the premiere date for Daisy Jones & the Six. Then she’s joined by her friends Heather Cocks and Jessica Morgan of Go Fug Yourself to dive into their shared lifetime love of soap operas and melodrama in general. In what they’ve now decided will be the first of a series (complete with a cliffhanger!), they get into the ways ‘80s and ‘90s daytime and nighttime soaps shaped the culture—and their minds. Think Days of Our Lives, General Hospital, All My Children, One Life to Live, Dallas, Dynasty, Beverly Hills 90210, Melrose Place, and more.

You know Abby has some notes about how that Taylor Swift pre-sale went down on Ticketmaster this week. Spoiler Alert: It was traumatic and messy AF. Ticketmaster must be defeated and maybe Swifities and AOC can band together and do it. Plus: the new season of Grey’s Anatomy, The Crown, From Scratch, EmRata + Pete Davidson, the Jerry Falwell Jr doc God Forbid on Hulu, the great John Aniston as Victor Kiriakis on Days of Our Lives, and more.

Abby survived Harryween and lived to tell about the glorious night that featured Harry as Danny Zuko singing Olivia Newton-John’s “Hopelessly Devoted to You”. Then she’s joined by her friend Jamie Rosen to talk about lots of fun stuff including the intersection of beauty and pop culture, Gwyneth Paltrow, House of the Dragon, their shared passion for movie trailers, and much more.

Abby and fellow Swiftie Elana Fishman, the editor of Page Six Style, go deep on every single track of Taylor Swift’s new album ‘Midnights’—including the 3 AM bonus songs that were indeed a “chaotic surprise”. It's a long one, who is more deserving than Taylor Alison Swift? Spoiler alert: They love it.

This week the WHN sports trio is back! They’re talking football + why it’s hard to be a fan sometimes, sports tears (and fights and, um, arrests), Friday Night Lights and other sports-adjacent shows (Does One Tree Hill count? Abby says yes!), John Tesh, Tom and Gisele, and so much more. Plus, Amy has a special statement to read regarding her last appearance on the show and what it did to the Kentucky basketball program.
