Gilmore Gourds: A Yam in the Lettuce - Show Notes


This week on The Lettuce Podcast, Charlotte and Laura cover the new Netflix mini-series Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life. The girls are excited to revisit the characters of one of their favorite television series. They discuss many of the characters' new story-lines, whether or not the new episodes feel like classic Gilmore Girls, and the possibility of more episodes. Charlotte explains her feelings about Lorelai's new put-together life with Luke and how she empathizes for Lorelai during Richard's funeral. Laura chats about Rory as a difficult, but lovable character and her frustration with Logan. The girls also pick their most and least favorite of the four episodes and discuss those famous final four words. Is Rory bound for a new career after struggling with journalism? Has Luke been dumbed down? And why was Lane so underused in the revival episodes? All these subjects and more are discussed on this super-sized episode of The Lettuce Podcast! SPOILER WARNING: the final four words are said and discussed at length during this episode and repeated at the very ending of the episode. If you have not watched Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life and do not want to know what the final four words are, we recommend watching the Netflix series before listening.

For the Fun & Games segment, Charlotte and Laura both reveal what they think their final four words for their lives would be. They also compete head-to-head in a Gilmore Girls trivia quiz: How Well Do You Know Your Gilmore Girls?



For this episode's podtails, Charlotte sipped on a Lorelai-approved cup of coffee. Laura's podtail was inspired by Lorelai's Wild hike where she enjoyed boxed wine with fellow hikers.

Listen to this episode now!

Don't forget to join us next week for The Lettuce Beets! The next topic episode of The Lettuce Podcast will begin the The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo series. Laura will host this episode about one of literature's most kick-ass heroines, Lisbeth Salander!

Until then,
Arugulater!
