Charlotte chats about her struggles with Sam and her fondness for Patrick. She also shares how reading the novel changed her experience after previously viewing the film.

Why was the nature of Charlie's mental illness changed from book to movie? Did Charlie need a more supportive family? And aren't we all just hoping to have a teacher like Bill?

The Fun & Games section was inspired by a classic high school game – MASH! Laura and Charlotte both endured the long, but rewarding process of choosing spouses, jobs, cars, and more. After a careful elimination process, the hosts were able to find out what their 100% guaranteed futures would be! Listen to find out which girl got to marry Jason Momoa!

This week's podtail was a double drink! Charlotte was inspired by Charlie's dislike of beer and enjoyed a local brew - Big Boss Brewery's Harvest Time. Laura was inspired by Charlie's dates with Mary Elizabeth and added some brandy to a mug of Wassel (a favorite fall drink similar to mulled cider)!

Gilmore Gourds (Season 1) - Show Notes

It's an exciting week for The Lettuce Podcast! Charlotte moderates this week's episode, with Laura in tow, about a shared favorite television show: Season 1 of Gilmore Girls. Both hosts were very excited to talk, talk, talk, and talk some more about this female forward series. The girls have a real gabfest about the townies, boyfriends, school frenemies, and the titular Gilmore family. They also reveal their favorite episodes and plots of the first season. Charlotte shares why she enjoys the character of Sookie, but still struggles with Melissa McCarthy as an actress. Laura makes a case for Dean as a decent first boyfriend, though she can't defend everything he does. The hosts also talk about who their favorite characters (Lorelai and Rory, duh!) and you may be surprised by some of the choices! Is Lorelai truly ignoring her feelings for Luke or is she simply not ready to accept them? Is Max a good fit for Lorelai? Are Charlotte and Laura Team Dean, Team Luke, Team Max, Team Lorelai, or Team Rory? Listen to find out!

For the Fun & Games segment, the hosts take a quiz to determine which Gilmore Girls guy is their soulmate. Then they play their favorite TLP game: Kill, Marry, Pity Date. This time around, the girls decided to play in the style of Lorelai and Rory's game "1, 2, 3... He's Yours!" and the result was a fun twist on an old favorite.

There is only one drink to have when talk about Gilmore Girls: coffee! For this week's podtail, Laura enjoyed a delicious cup of GG-approved coffee with a splash of Irish Cream to make it a true cocktail.
