I am all in. Oh, just you more. I am all in with Scott Pattison and I heart radio podcast. All right, everybody, We've got a special bonus episode for you. Uh. Some fans have have gotten in touch with us and they want they have questions, then I'm going to answer them. And we've invited them on and we're very excited to meet them and and we can't wait to get to it. So let's bring on the group. So first we have a Michael and Brandy, Um their husband and wife, and they actually used quotes from Gilmore Girls and their vows, so we'll bring them in. Here they come. It's Michael and Brandy. Hi, welcome to the show. How are you doing? Where? Where are you? Salt like? Are you? Are you getting ready for skiing? You do? Are you skiers? I'm really not a skier skiter, but as long as you're out in the cold weather, that's that's all that matters, Right Michael, how about you join the snow but not much ski in a snowboard? Alright? Alright, alright, I I come out to Park City and enjoy those glorious mountains over there. Um they are. So, how you guys doing you? You you use some Gilmore dialogue in your wedding vowels. From what I understand, which which particular pieces of dialogue did you use? So I actually used yours in mine, the name of your podcasts. Actually, at the end of mine, I said, well, like your other favorite man in plaid, I am all in. And then she used a little bit ahead in the series She's the t J a t J reference, um where she looked at me and she said, well, you know the great thing about dresses, they're all comfortable, but they don't have any pockets. And then and then she continue to say, and I love you so so romantic. Wow. Well that's great guys. Um, so you so what is what is your question nor questions that you have for me about season one? Um My, I mean I've been listening to your whole podcast and I understand you don't like Max, and I get that whole aspect, but my whole thing is is that Max was there for Laura Lee when she needed him to be there for Laura Lee. So they came together because that's what she needed at the time, so she could see the difference between her old world and her new world. And I understand the whole aspect. I have a son, so I understand the whole thing of well, if my son's teacher came at me, maybe like what is wrong with you? Because that's incorrect. But um, I don't know. I just I think season one is such a base of what Gilmore has come to be. Um, it was a huge part of my life before I met him, and I got my sister and my mom involved, and so we would watch it as a whole. Um, So what was your favorite part about doing this whole season? And actually, even with you watching it now, what do you remember? What's your favorite part reminiscing in season one? Um? You know that, and I've said it before. It's always gonna be the pilot episode and the first day I came to set because the first day I came to set, I came a little early, uh, because I was just so anxious to get out of the hotel and get on the set. And I was you know, I wasn't a series regular. I was just a guest star on the pilot. So I had a little more you know, I just had all this enthusiasm like, Hey, I want to be a part of this, and and uh, I want to see these two girls in action, because I knew that, uh, Lauren and Alexis were doing a scene as a diner before Lauren and I did our first scene. You know, I need coffee and I said, you're a junkie. That kind of scene, that scene. Um, So I wanted to see those two work and I did. I got there early, and I got on the set. I watched them rehearse, and I just remember thinking, God, this is the chemistry between those two is so great, and this thing's got a real special feel about it. And then when I did, you know, I went through hair and makeup and the wardrobe and the whole thing, and and came on the set and rehearsed. I just got even even better feeling working with Lauren and uh when we started shooting, And that's really when it hit me that that there was something very special here, um, between the two of us. And it was just a very easy, natural kind of chemistry that you know, we as actors hoped for, um and it doesn't always happen. It doesn't mean anything other than you know, um, um, you know, it's just not the one in a million kind of a coupling. And this kind of felt that way. So I was it's always going to be the pilot for me in that first scene. How was it to see I mean because I I we all noticed it's like how much the set especially changes as the series develops. But that very first pilot episode, especially at like Emily and Richard's house, you see, okay, when the house completely changes from like episode one to the last episode. Where how fun does it to see just the show develop and as you watch it develop at being behind the scenes, you go, okay, we've got something here. How how fun is that as an actor to see that happening? Um, well, it's it's thrilling. I mean, it was just thrilling to experience something that, um, you know, doesn't happen very often in Hollywood, where you get on not only a hit show, but a show that you kind of feel is going to stand the test of time and it's going to be iconic. And you know, it felt that way. It felt this could really become a seminal show in the history of television. Not that we you know, obsessed about it or thought about it and talked about it too much, but it was just it was of such quality that you know, we thought maybe we had a chance, and the fact that it's all come to fruition is all the more delightful because you know, especially in getting back to how the sets have changed. To come full circle around to your question, um, part of your question was that the floor and Luke's Diner, to be very specific, changed over time. It started out squeaky, it got squeak air and that meant we had to redo those lines and looping stages, um every single episode. And then when Netflix came around, they built they had to rebuild the sets because those old Gilmore sets have been torn down and other productions were going in their movies or d V shows or that, so they had to completely rebuild all the sets. And they put in these very spongy quiet floors in Luke's Diner. So that was really comfortable, uh, and very very quiet. So in fact, you could sit down and lie down and you know, you'd be comfortable on the floors at Luke's, whereas before you'd be very cramped and uncomfortable and squeaky. Well, I mean, I've heard I have read different things. I've had the background, um, the d ds, the behind the scene and stuff like that. How did you ever sit on the really super uncomfortable couch at Lower Life House. Ah yeah, many times. And let me tell you something, at two o'clock in the morning, that is like wonderfully comfortable bed. It's really soft, and you know, you take a load off and you get on that thing and you're happy to be there. It's it's not uncomfortable to take your little breaks because you're standing all the time. Your back starts to hurt. Maybe. I mean I was, you know, in my forties, so my back started. It's sort of like, Okay, you gotta sit down on the couch now. One of the um one of the interviews with well Suki Melissam Carthy, she said that that couch was it felt like bricks when you sat on it. Really. I wonder if it changed different, if they were different couch. I always love that couch. I love that couch. And whenever we did a scene Laura and I did a scene in there and we're sitting there watching TV and dinner or whatever. I love those scenes because you just sit there. Great, you have to move around. You just eat and talk and have fun and sit on that couch. Yeah, I know, I always loved it. Well, I must say, like we I appreciate the show because it's kind of brought us closer together when we first started dating. That's kind of what she would watch and kind of almost every day, every night, kind almost it almost became like a background show, and she was going throughout the night and stuff, and then I would just I just got hooked, and I was like, this is just so quick and so funny, witty, and the little one miners and the things that the Palladinos, just those little innuendos every now and then that they would try to get away with on the U B or c W. I was just like, Okay, this show pushes the envelope a little. Oh yeah, it was. It's funny to me. It's just it was amazing. And that's what. It's such a high quality comfort show that people must have it on at all times because nothing bad can happen on that show. Nothing boring really ever happens on that show. It's all, you know, if it's not if it's not really dramatic and compelling, it's funny, it's lighthearted, it's you know, it's everything. But anyway, alright, so guys, we have somebody waiting in the wings. Thank you, so much for your questions. Maybe I'll run into you out there on the ski slope when you get all on the ski slopes just waiting for Oh yeah, no, I enjoyed meeting you guys, and U uh and thank you for your questions. Okay, keep watching, bye guys. Okay, yeah, alright. So next up have Felicity and she is a big fan and she loves the deep dive into the characters and their growth and who they are. So we'll bring in Felicity. Hi, that's my sister. Hi, Felicity, And what's your sister's name? Hi? Madeline? Where are you guys? Calling in from Toronto? Wow? It's getting little Is it getting a little chilly up there? Is? It's insane. I walk into school with like three layers on and end up stripping. Now it's so weird. No, I know, I know. So how are you guys doing great? How long have you been fans of the show? For me? Six years I think and probably like five years? So, so so what do you have? What do you have for me? You have some questions about the show? Season one? Season one? Can I just say thank you for reading my Oh you're very welcome. I didn't want it to sound too mean, because I wasn't sure whether you thought I was criticizing you, which I was, but in a very loving way. I mean about the podcast, about the podcast, because Luke, you can't really change like that's done, you know, Yeah, I look, I I knew I was taking a chance doing this because Luke is such an iconic sort of perfect guy. Uh. And you know I'm a little different. I mean I I and and that's getting you know, people are adjusting to that. I guess that's all it is. They're just they're just sort of adjusting to it. You can't be you can't go through your life that tight. You can't be Luke. It doesn't work in real life. I mean, that guy was so hard to play because he was so tight, you know what I mean, he really really was. And and that's compelling to watch once in a while when he pops on for an hour every week or however many times you watch a show, and that's necessary and you get all that other color from all the other characters. But his color he had to be, you know, he had to be those muted sort of earthy tones, right. He had to be grounded and earthy and weighty and tight all that stuff. You can't live your life that way. You can you can you can be you can be a great TV character that way. And I'm sure there are some people that are that way, but that's not me. I mean that was that was an acting gig. Yeah, totally, And I just um, I love Luke and he is pretty great. It just seems to be that he has a character arc, like do you realize that? Like, no, because I know you haven't watched it back, right, No, watching it back, I feel like you might realize this a lot more. But the more I watch it, the more I like, the more it becomes clear that in season one he gets stronger and stronger and stronger, and then he gets with more La and he's become like this powerhouse and you love him and you love them. And then at one point, I'm not sure if we should say it, say it when Vanessa Rano shows up, not going to reveal the character, but when Vanessa Rano a lovely actress and she's so great and sparks fly and great, awesome, But when she shows up, it was almost written to be this great character development with Luke, and it seemed to be the opposite because the more the more he got invested with that relationship, the less investity he got in like with the rest, and then it seemed like he was off based with himself. Is that just me? No? No, no, that she wasn't warmly embraced as a character. And I think for the reasons that you stated, very very very intelligently. By the way, you're very very stute observer um and one heck of a TV critic. Boy, you might have a future my parents stop you, so obviously great influences. So yeah, she was warmly received by the fan base, and I always defended her because I thought it gave First of all, she was great to work with. She was always prepared, she always knew her lines called, she was perfect in rehearsal, She was perfect when we were filming. She was you know, she'd bring her mom on the set because she was young at that time and she had a little sister too, and they were just fantastic to hang out with. So it was it was just such a a plus positive experience with Vanessa Um. And uh, the work was great, and I thought it gave Luke some depth and dimension, And I mean that's what it felt like at the time, I didn't know how it was gonna land in audience Bill, and it obviously didn't land well um um, And that's you know, and that's not for me to judge. I just loved working with her and I loved having her add another dimension to Luke, and there was there was really no it was. It was the first time and maybe the only time that Luke was given a little development, you know, in that way. So yeah, I mean, I feel like we're the odd balls out because as much as I can, as much as we both criticize these characters, we still love to see them on the screen because each one has a little piece of that, like a little piece of you. Like we were just watching the season one finale and um, it was funny. Now I'm staring at the screen and she's going but like all of them, you drink a million times coffees today and you talk really fast like lore Live. But you also are so dramatic, and I love that that's what we see when we watch it. And I also the show is so so well written because Will and I don't think a lot of people nowadays understand that because we grew up watching a lot of old movies. Hence the posters behind it with Carrie Grant. Let me see what they are. Hang on if you see, there's Yeah, Audrey Hapburn, Carragrat and Sight and then there's real rear Window and Jimmie Stewart. And so when we're watching back especially not only see Mary and Ross playing are like the first, but hear her on your podcast after watching Happy Days. Oh my god, it's fantastic. It's fantastic writing. It's so good I know, I know, and it's effortless and breezy and free, and it'll go in places that you never expected to go to and it's just yeah, it's just fun, really fun. Um what else you got for me? Um? Okay? Basically, I just I just wanted you to take a step back when you watch it, because I see, like you look like Luke and you seem to be like regular guy A plus you know you're great, but you always watch it, and you watch it and as if you're like defending the Gilmore Girls before you even know the POC, Like guy, who do you think you take it personally? Could just be called critic. You're like, well, you go on and you're like Dean who he is talking to Lorelai, talking to you, but don't but wait a minute, wait a wute, wait a minute. I am. I am giving a voice, don't you think in a way to the fan base, in a nostalgic way, because that was their reaction when they first experienced those episodes in the year two thousand, right, I mean, how I'm gonna Collectively, they probably all gasped when he said to Laurel, I, uh was in my turn to speak? Yeah? Can I talk to you know? I'm just like, wow, the Cajonis on this kid to say something like that to Laurel I, who's an obviously you know, you know, the mam a lion there and uh flexing her muscles to that kid, like, hey, you know, watch your step because this is a small town. And and I think, I'm just you know, I'm I've never seen it. I legit. I've never seen the episodes, right, um um. I was there fifteen hours a day, twelve hours a day. You know, I don't want to consume it. When I come home. I need to just shower and eat and go to bed and learn my lines for tomorrow. And that's all you have time to do. You don't have time to do anything else, So the last thing I want to do is watch the show. Um, but now it makes perfect sense. Something from Felicity And are you Madeline or Madeline Madeleine Madeline? We first of all, Felicity. Are you named after the iconic television character? I am actually not watched the show. And let me say I got some notes on that chair. Should we do a podcast on Felicity? Even though it's on it? So I won't say your ages, but you both look young? So are you under twenty? Yeah? I'm not. I tun So here is my question for you, and and thanks to Riley, we're going through all the pop culture references. So as you guys watch the show, do you know most of them? We do? Yeah? Or are some do look them up? Are they confusing? Or do most of them make sense? So most of them we understand. The ones that we don't will typically go to our mom because she's the one who is like full of knowledge about the old movies, old TV shows, stuff like that, and so she'll usually phillis in and then Felicity has a list going, Yeah, I do the movies we have to watch to understand all the references. That's amazing. Yeah, we ended up watching a bunch of old classics like Bringing a Baby and the way we were, Like, we're not huge big fans of like Barber streisand but we had to watch um the way we were And funny face, we have the DVD, but strangely we had never seen before and it's more life's favorite movie, so we had to watch it and then we're getting all of these extra clues and it's we put a lot of effort into understanding that pop culture references because every time we go back, it's so much funnier. M h, It's so much funnier. That's when you get the references. It changes the whole thing. Yeah, that isn't a wonderful how Gilmour is really uh in a certain sense of love letter to great literature, film and TV for sure. Yeah, and even like when when Tristan exits and Chad Michael Murray goes off and they find their own way to like put an ode to a literature and hit in his new show. And that's it's so great because these two thousand shows they're so touching too. There's into they're just so much better than shows nowadays. Really really Yeah, there's nothing like them. You two are adorable. We do like to compare ourselves to Lorelai and Rory because she's parenting me. But but sometimes she's more lowrily with the spunk. Anyway, guys, you're a lot of fun and uh, you know, we should we should have them back on. They are insightful info because yeah, you gotta come back one question. Oh you gotta get that question. Yeah, sorry, I wanted to know. Um, what like what you seeest Luke's biggest flaw? Flaw? Yeah? What what you see is his biggest flaw? And which decision it comes out in that you'd want to go back and change? Sorry, that's loaded. Yeah, I mean I don't know that it's just one flaw. I think that, Um, well, he's a bit closed off, isn't he. I he wouldn't be Luke if he was open and friendly and happy. And I just I think he's just a dark look he's a Northeast kind of guy. He's a he's a throwback kind of guy. He's a you know, only the northeastern part of the United States can produce a guy like that who's just so steeped in in in in historical significance. I mean, Stars Hollow is an historic town. I grew up in a historic town in southern New Jersey. I know what that's like. But um, with all the eccentric characters and the closeness of the community and the smallness of the community and how important that is and everybody being accountable, and I just think that he he just seems I don't know if it's a flaw, but it seems to me he suffered. And that's the way I always played it, that he suffered, you know, extraordinary trauma. Uh And whether it's emotional or whether he's just too sensitive a guy and he's covering up too much, and maybe whether the breakups of Rachel and girls before him have caused him, you know, to to to to sort of grow this very hard shell around himself and be so guarded. Um because and I think that's why it's so compelling to watch him draw up his guard and an attempt to be uh um, real and honest with his feelings towards Laurela and uh so yea for his flaws, you know, yea for his damage. And it's all very useful in a dramatic sense and a comedic sense. Um, but anyway, you guys are fantastic. It was great talking to a great meeting you. I got a feeling Amy, We're gonna be in touch with these two. These are these are these are astute young just saying, if you ever have to go on vacation, I now know who will be filling in for you. Waiting maybe if I have to go on vacation for you, I think I think we have some superstars, some budding superstars here. Anyway, great meeting you, girls, Okay, good talking to you. All right, all the best. So next we have Justin and he was a Warner Brothers tour guide and two of you actually briefly met at a pop up for the Gilmore revival in two thousand and sixteen. So we'll bring in Justin. Justin, I can hear you, I can't see you. But are you still working over Warner Brothers? No, No, I was. I was there, uh like two thousand and eleven or like two thousand thirteen. It's been a little bit. Yeah, all right, and we met. There's photographic evidence there is. Yeah. I think I think it's actually it's like five years to the day because it was October. I only know this because I was doing scrolling back through my photo role. Um, and it was right around the revival because there were some pop up shops that Netflix had done with the coffee shop, so we met there. Oh so we met in Beverly Hills at that pop up, right. I think if you if you google your name and Netflix Revival, like there we sometimes. Yeah, that was God. There were a lot of people there. Wow. Yeah, that was shocking. The cops were there trying to clear the street. They were like, get out of the street. You know, it's like, hey, wait a minute, these are gut more fans back off. I think you had come out at one point to like meet the overflow crowd because it was way more than people were anticipating, you know. I think that, Yeah, it was triple what anybody expected. So you have a question. But you know, being on the on the back lot, I guess and from my perspective and obviously many things I have filmed there were were there anything that you while filming, like uh found interesting about the particular sets, the practical sets, or about this studio in general that um, maybe you wouldn't know before or other people wouldn't realize. No, because at that point. I was pretty much a seasoned actor. I've been on a lot of sets, um and uh, you know, the thing that did impress me and surprise me the most was the size of our set. I mean we took the the entire back lot at Warner Brothers. I mean that it was just an extraordinary amount of real estate. And it's just for that one show. And Warner Brothers. Uh, you know they're producing I don't know how many, they're producing, thirty shows a year on average. Right, they're not all shot at Warner Brothers. But there's there's shows on sound stages, there's but I mean we took off this massive chunk of real estate over there, um, and we had sound stages that were ours and dedicated. I mean, it was just really a big commitment on the studios part. Uh. And that's the thing that that blew me away when we got there, was like the size, the amount of real estate. We had the recreation of Unionville up in Toronto right to create that, and it was just so it was a replica of the place and it was stunning. Um. I didn't know how good the construction crews really were until I got on that set. I want this is extraordinary work. Uh, and it helped us to believe that we were in these places that we had shot the pilot and it was it was extraordinary. Um So yeah, that's probably the biggest impression that hit me was the size of it and the detail of it. And then was your was your apartment set? Was that built inside the big practical that that high school area? Or was that stage? Yeah? No, that was the high school. It was inside the high school. Yeah. Yeah. I was always impressed just you know, being on those sets every day and bringing people around, you know, how much work went into making that looked like Stars Hollow or you know, any other small town that they that they made it look like. There's a lot more work than you would think watching it, you know at home on screen. So I always try to impress that upon people when visiting that it takes it literally takes a village. It does. No, it's it's hundreds of workers that are you know, high end people who are great craftsmen building all that stuff. It takes a lot. It takes a lot. Anyway, listen, we gotta go. We got one last guess they're waiting in the wings. It was great catching up with you man, and uh, all the best and thanks for your questions. All right, buddy, continue listening. Okay, thanks man, I appreciate it. Bye. Yeah, Riley, what do we have? We have another guest? Yes, we have our final guest, Jacqueline and uh fun story her and her best friend Kelsey. Um, this is the show is what has kept them close to each other throughout their childhood and um, Kelsey and Jacqueline haven't seen each other in years because Jacqueline is active duty and station across the country. So we'll get a little more on that. Here comes Jacqueline. Jacqueline. Hello, Hey, how's it going. It's going great. How you doing. I'm great. I'm so excited to get to chat with you. We're excited to have you. Welcome, Welcome, welcome. Um, So you have a friend that is a military person. I'm a military you're a military person. And where where are you stationed? I'm stan Northern California. Okay, Uh, well, thank you for your service first and foremost, and thanks for watching the show. And uh, apparently you grew up with somebody who and you remain bonded over this show all these years later. And tell us a little bit about her her name is Kelsey. She's my best friend from high school when we started swimming together when we were fourteen, and we've stayed in touch all these years. And she lives in New York City. UM, so actually got to visit over last month and that's when we emailed in. UM. But we send each other stuff back and forth about Gilmore all the time, like any random you know, posts that we see about it. She was the one that told me about this podcast, UM. And then we'll send like little games back and forth, like she'll randomly text me and be like, hey, watch episode seven of all seven seasons and we'll just kind of kind of like go through it like that or look for the clown pillow. And so it's just kind of kept us connected over the years. That's nice. Watch our favorite episodes every time we're together, right right. That's that's terrific. That's true. And that's been going on for how many years? I'm sorry, did you say ten years? Ten years? Wow? Decades? A decade is worth of Gilmore and bonding. That's wonderful. UM. Do you have so do you have a specific question you just want to chat? I do have a specific question of mine, So when we were like talking about our Gilmore games that we sent back and forth. We're wondering did the cast have any games, um, that they like played to pass the time on set, or any shenanigans they tried to get away with while you were filming. You when the days are getting long and the nights are getting rather silly, Well, um, you know most people just read. Uh, yeah, we would read a lot because it was so much time downtime, right, they'd bring you there. Let's say you had one scene to do in the afternoon, they'd bring you there early in the morning because they didn't know if they were going to get to the other scenes and maybe they were going to move your scene up or somebody's seen up to the morning and they were there ready to go already through hair and makeup and wardrobe, the whole thing. Um. So that's the job. The job is that what they pay you for is waiting around, and it's a lot of that. Were you reading new books, papers and magazines? Books? Yeah? What have you? I mean? Because it was the days before we could watch shows on our foods correct correct um, and we all had television sets in our trailers. But I don't think anybody ever watched them. We had we had phones we could call China with, but now I don't think anybody ever used them. We had fax machines. I never received a fact, you know in my trailer, but we had all of this stuff. Um and uh, I you know, I at one point played some practical jokes on a few of the cast members over the course of a couple of seasons. I nailed somebody's shoes to the floor of their trailer. They didn't appreciate that too much, so I stopped doing that. I put vassiline on the toilet seat of a certain cast member and he fell in and got stuck. Yeah, they will, they will. Uh, And I'll take it to the grave. I'm not gonna I'm not coughing up the inphoe um, you know, just a little stuff like that, and uh, just to keep it lively a little bit. I don't know if it was all the way appreciated, but I tried so somehow. Yeah. And it's a lot of pick you know. You go to the craft service table and you pick around the food a lot, and you eat bananas and eat grapes, and then you start eating junkie stuff and it was usually pretty good spreads and there wasn't unhealthy stuff at all, but um, you know you could eat too many bags of chips and get a tummy ache, right, Um, you just you just don't realize how famished you get when you're on set and you're just like burning up all this energy, and just because you're not running or being physically active, you don't realize how hungry you get, and you just sit there and start wolfing down large quantities of food standing up, like, wait a minute, really, you have a favorite. Do both of you have a favorite episode? One episode? Episode two hands down with the loyeralized first day it Chiltern by far my favorite it was. I would say it's like contender for top in this series too. I just love it. I think it's so funny. My second piado would be when the when they all reunite after Rory like moves out of the Gilmore House and they all have that argument, just kind of going back and forth and they rehash everything. That's that's the other contender. Those two are tops. Oh my god, that's so random. You bring that up. I stumbled on that on YouTube. Are you talking about the We're getting a hit of ourselves. So but I talk about the Friday night dinner and they like, cut to another scene, cut to another scene, and she's like, I'm not quitting the d A R that one. Yeah, and then and then lies I'll like Mr Gilmare is like, so, how's Luke And he's like, oh, he has a kid, just kind of sits there nodding. So funny you're bringing that up. I weirdly saw that on YouTube. So stay tuned, everybody, because in a couple of years we'll get to that this is good and they're all drunk and ripping on Logan ste Yeah, I totally know you're talking about. Yeah, But my favorite line from season one is definitely when um it was like from it was from Kiss and Tell, and I remember you guys were talking about this episode, but this line, I don't think it got brought up, and I was just like, no, it's my It's the best. When Rory tells Laurela about her first kiss and she goes and he said thank you, and where he goes yeah, and she goes, well that was very polite, and I just lost it. Now do you do you tell people about the show, you try to turn them onto the show. Oh absolutely, I've gotten many people involved. I work, even like on the night watches. Sometimes we'll just have like random TV shows on. I've learned that Gilmore comes on at three in the morning. Um, so when I'm on the night watches, will put that on and my like fellow watch dandiers will be like, wait, what's happening now, or like we'll come back a week later and they've missed like three seasons because it just keeps playing, and I'll be like, wait, I thought she was dating the other guy. Pretty great, all right, all right, Jacqueline, it was fun. Thanks for coming on. Thank you for your email. Keep them coming in, keep listening. We love that you love the show. Uh and uh we appreciate your time. Okay, thank you, all right, good meeting you. Thanks me, all right, take care. Are Gilmore fans the nicest people on the whole planet? Like literally that everyone is the sweetest kind of nicest people. I'm telling you, you know, every person that has stopped me in the last twenty one years, it's they've been just really great. They've been delightful, the sweetest thing. I get why people love it because it's minus minus A couple of emails, you know, but that had nothing to do with the show. I had everything to do with the podcast. So Scott, as we are rapping season one, we wanted to start a fun new bit. Okay, okay, what is this a shutter to think? Every few weeks we're going to go through the the reviews of the podcast wanting to read them. What so, Riley, We've got We're not gonna We're gonna do a couple of good ones, a couple of bad ones. Here we go, So what kind of what kind of music? What do you want? Something soft, something nice? Just for under Riley? Reading these reviews some will be painful. I'm addicted to it, but I'm not really impressed with the host. Mostly I find them annoying. But I love the Some pop culture the I heart producers are the worst, namely Riley. She is too young and uninformed about the show and pop culture culture overall. How are you hired for a job about a show you haven't seen and to go over the pop culture you aren't aware of? The good I love the banter and the behind the scenes info, particularly particularly like the deep dive into character's motivations. Honestly, though Riley is the real envy. I just finished my umteen three watch of Gilmore Girls when this podcast started. I am now watching all over again one episode a week to follow along hearing Scott's genuine excitement at the first time. Fewer is my favorite part. Cannot wait to see how he reacts to later seasons. See some are good, some are pretty good. Yeah, so keep them coming because we will read them, we take note of them. We will try to improve in season two. We'll try to be less annoying. This is the theme song for this bit. Hey, everybody picking on my ax right now. We're gonna be back breakdown season two. Just get a little groove on and I think you're all groovy?

Some fans have have gotten in touch with us and they want they have questions, then I'm going to answer them. And we've invited them on and we're very excited to meet them and and we can't wait to get to it. So let's bring on the group. So first we have a Michael and Brandy, Um their husband and wife, and they actually used quotes from Gilmore Girls and their vows, so we'll bring them in. Here they come. It's Michael and Brandy. Hi, welcome to the show. How are you doing? Where? Where are you? Salt like? Are you? Are you getting ready for skiing? You do? Are you skiers? I'm really not a skier skiter, but as long as you're out in the cold weather, that's that's all that matters, Right Michael, how about you join the snow but not much ski in a snowboard? Alright? Alright, alright, I I come out to Park City and enjoy those glorious mountains over there. Um they are. So, how you guys doing you? You you use some Gilmore dialogue in your wedding vowels. From what I understand, which which particular pieces of dialogue did you use? So I actually used yours in mine, the name of your podcasts. Actually, at the end of mine, I said, well, like your other favorite man in plaid, I am all in. And then she used a little bit ahead in the series She's the t J a t J reference, um where she looked at me and she said, well, you know the great thing about dresses, they're all comfortable, but they don't have any pockets. And then and then she continue to say, and I love you so so romantic. Wow. Well that's great guys. Um, so you so what is what is your question nor questions that you have for me about season one? Um My, I mean I've been listening to your whole podcast and I understand you don't like Max, and I get that whole aspect, but my whole thing is is that Max was there for Laura Lee when she needed him to be there for Laura Lee. So they came together because that's what she needed at the time, so she could see the difference between her old world and her new world. And I understand the whole aspect. I have a son, so I understand the whole thing of well, if my son's teacher came at me, maybe like what is wrong with you? Because that's incorrect. But um, I don't know. I just I think season one is such a base of what Gilmore has come to be. Um, it was a huge part of my life before I met him, and I got my sister and my mom involved, and so we would watch it as a whole. Um, So what was your favorite part about doing this whole season? And actually, even with you watching it now, what do you remember? What's your favorite part reminiscing in season one? Um? You know that, and I've said it before. It's always gonna be the pilot episode and the first day I came to set because the first day I came to set, I came a little early, uh, because I was just so anxious to get out of the hotel and get on the set. And I was you know, I wasn't a series regular. I was just a guest star on the pilot. So I had a little more you know, I just had all this enthusiasm like, Hey, I want to be a part of this, and and uh, I want to see these two girls in action, because I knew that, uh, Lauren and Alexis were doing a scene as a diner before Lauren and I did our first scene. You know, I need coffee and I said, you're a junkie. That kind of scene, that scene. Um, So I wanted to see those two work and I did. I got there early, and I got on the set. I watched them rehearse, and I just remember thinking, God, this is the chemistry between those two is so great, and this thing's got a real special feel about it. And then when I did, you know, I went through hair and makeup and the wardrobe and the whole thing, and and came on the set and rehearsed. I just got even even better feeling working with Lauren and uh when we started shooting, And that's really when it hit me that that there was something very special here, um, between the two of us. And it was just a very easy, natural kind of chemistry that you know, we as actors hoped for, um and it doesn't always happen. It doesn't mean anything other than you know, um, um, you know, it's just not the one in a million kind of a coupling. And this kind of felt that way. So I was it's always going to be the pilot for me in that first scene. How was it to see I mean because I I we all noticed it's like how much the set especially changes as the series develops. But that very first pilot episode, especially at like Emily and Richard's house, you see, okay, when the house completely changes from like episode one to the last episode. Where how fun does it to see just the show develop and as you watch it develop at being behind the scenes, you go, okay, we've got something here. How how fun is that as an actor to see that happening? Um, well, it's it's thrilling. I mean, it was just thrilling to experience something that, um, you know, doesn't happen very often in Hollywood, where you get on not only a hit show, but a show that you kind of feel is going to stand the test of time and it's going to be iconic. And you know, it felt that way. It felt this could really become a seminal show in the history of television. Not that we you know, obsessed about it or thought about it and talked about it too much, but it was just it was of such quality that you know, we thought maybe we had a chance, and the fact that it's all come to fruition is all the more delightful because you know, especially in getting back to how the sets have changed. To come full circle around to your question, um, part of your question was that the floor and Luke's Diner, to be very specific, changed over time. It started out squeaky, it got squeak air and that meant we had to redo those lines and looping stages, um every single episode. And then when Netflix came around, they built they had to rebuild the sets because those old Gilmore sets have been torn down and other productions were going in their movies or d V shows or that, so they had to completely rebuild all the sets. And they put in these very spongy quiet floors in Luke's Diner. So that was really comfortable, uh, and very very quiet. So in fact, you could sit down and lie down and you know, you'd be comfortable on the floors at Luke's, whereas before you'd be very cramped and uncomfortable and squeaky. Well, I mean, I've heard I have read different things. I've had the background, um, the d ds, the behind the scene and stuff like that. How did you ever sit on the really super uncomfortable couch at Lower Life House. Ah yeah, many times. And let me tell you something, at two o'clock in the morning, that is like wonderfully comfortable bed. It's really soft, and you know, you take a load off and you get on that thing and you're happy to be there. It's it's not uncomfortable to take your little breaks because you're standing all the time. Your back starts to hurt. Maybe. I mean I was, you know, in my forties, so my back started. It's sort of like, Okay, you gotta sit down on the couch now. One of the um one of the interviews with well Suki Melissam Carthy, she said that that couch was it felt like bricks when you sat on it. Really. I wonder if it changed different, if they were different couch. I always love that couch. I love that couch. And whenever we did a scene Laura and I did a scene in there and we're sitting there watching TV and dinner or whatever. I love those scenes because you just sit there. Great, you have to move around. You just eat and talk and have fun and sit on that couch. Yeah, I know, I always loved it. Well, I must say, like we I appreciate the show because it's kind of brought us closer together when we first started dating. That's kind of what she would watch and kind of almost every day, every night, kind almost it almost became like a background show, and she was going throughout the night and stuff, and then I would just I just got hooked, and I was like, this is just so quick and so funny, witty, and the little one miners and the things that the Palladinos, just those little innuendos every now and then that they would try to get away with on the U B or c W. I was just like, Okay, this show pushes the envelope a little. Oh yeah, it was. It's funny to me. It's just it was amazing. And that's what. It's such a high quality comfort show that people must have it on at all times because nothing bad can happen on that show. Nothing boring really ever happens on that show. It's all, you know, if it's not if it's not really dramatic and compelling, it's funny, it's lighthearted, it's you know, it's everything. But anyway, alright, so guys, we have somebody waiting in the wings. Thank you, so much for your questions. Maybe I'll run into you out there on the ski slope when you get all on the ski slopes just waiting for Oh yeah, no, I enjoyed meeting you guys, and U uh and thank you for your questions. Okay, keep watching, bye guys. Okay, yeah, alright. So next up have Felicity and she is a big fan and she loves the deep dive into the characters and their growth and who they are. So we'll bring in Felicity. Hi, that's my sister. Hi, Felicity, And what's your sister's name? Hi? Madeline? Where are you guys? Calling in from Toronto? Wow? It's getting little Is it getting a little chilly up there? Is? It's insane. I walk into school with like three layers on and end up stripping. Now it's so weird. No, I know, I know. So how are you guys doing great? How long have you been fans of the show? For me? Six years I think and probably like five years? So, so so what do you have? What do you have for me? You have some questions about the show? Season one? Season one? Can I just say thank you for reading my Oh you're very welcome. I didn't want it to sound too mean, because I wasn't sure whether you thought I was criticizing you, which I was, but in a very loving way. I mean about the podcast, about the podcast, because Luke, you can't really change like that's done, you know, Yeah, I look, I I knew I was taking a chance doing this because Luke is such an iconic sort of perfect guy. Uh. And you know I'm a little different. I mean I I and and that's getting you know, people are adjusting to that. I guess that's all it is. They're just they're just sort of adjusting to it. You can't be you can't go through your life that tight. You can't be Luke. It doesn't work in real life. I mean, that guy was so hard to play because he was so tight, you know what I mean, he really really was. And and that's compelling to watch once in a while when he pops on for an hour every week or however many times you watch a show, and that's necessary and you get all that other color from all the other characters. But his color he had to be, you know, he had to be those muted sort of earthy tones, right. He had to be grounded and earthy and weighty and tight all that stuff. You can't live your life that way. You can you can you can be you can be a great TV character that way. And I'm sure there are some people that are that way, but that's not me. I mean that was that was an acting gig. Yeah, totally, And I just um, I love Luke and he is pretty great. It just seems to be that he has a character arc, like do you realize that? Like, no, because I know you haven't watched it back, right, No, watching it back, I feel like you might realize this a lot more. But the more I watch it, the more I like, the more it becomes clear that in season one he gets stronger and stronger and stronger, and then he gets with more La and he's become like this powerhouse and you love him and you love them. And then at one point, I'm not sure if we should say it, say it when Vanessa Rano shows up, not going to reveal the character, but when Vanessa Rano a lovely actress and she's so great and sparks fly and great, awesome, But when she shows up, it was almost written to be this great character development with Luke, and it seemed to be the opposite because the more the more he got invested with that relationship, the less investity he got in like with the rest, and then it seemed like he was off based with himself. Is that just me? No? No, no, that she wasn't warmly embraced as a character. And I think for the reasons that you stated, very very very intelligently. By the way, you're very very stute observer um and one heck of a TV critic. Boy, you might have a future my parents stop you, so obviously great influences. So yeah, she was warmly received by the fan base, and I always defended her because I thought it gave First of all, she was great to work with. She was always prepared, she always knew her lines called, she was perfect in rehearsal, She was perfect when we were filming. She was you know, she'd bring her mom on the set because she was young at that time and she had a little sister too, and they were just fantastic to hang out with. So it was it was just such a a plus positive experience with Vanessa Um. And uh, the work was great, and I thought it gave Luke some depth and dimension, And I mean that's what it felt like at the time, I didn't know how it was gonna land in audience Bill, and it obviously didn't land well um um, And that's you know, and that's not for me to judge. I just loved working with her and I loved having her add another dimension to Luke, and there was there was really no it was. It was the first time and maybe the only time that Luke was given a little development, you know, in that way. So yeah, I mean, I feel like we're the odd balls out because as much as I can, as much as we both criticize these characters, we still love to see them on the screen because each one has a little piece of that, like a little piece of you. Like we were just watching the season one finale and um, it was funny. Now I'm staring at the screen and she's going but like all of them, you drink a million times coffees today and you talk really fast like lore Live. But you also are so dramatic, and I love that that's what we see when we watch it. And I also the show is so so well written because Will and I don't think a lot of people nowadays understand that because we grew up watching a lot of old movies. Hence the posters behind it with Carrie Grant. Let me see what they are. Hang on if you see, there's Yeah, Audrey Hapburn, Carragrat and Sight and then there's real rear Window and Jimmie Stewart. And so when we're watching back especially not only see Mary and Ross playing are like the first, but hear her on your podcast after watching Happy Days. Oh my god, it's fantastic. It's fantastic writing. It's so good I know, I know, and it's effortless and breezy and free, and it'll go in places that you never expected to go to and it's just yeah, it's just fun, really fun. Um what else you got for me? Um? Okay? Basically, I just I just wanted you to take a step back when you watch it, because I see, like you look like Luke and you seem to be like regular guy A plus you know you're great, but you always watch it, and you watch it and as if you're like defending the Gilmore Girls before you even know the POC, Like guy, who do you think you take it personally? Could just be called critic. You're like, well, you go on and you're like Dean who he is talking to Lorelai, talking to you, but don't but wait a minute, wait a wute, wait a minute. I am. I am giving a voice, don't you think in a way to the fan base, in a nostalgic way, because that was their reaction when they first experienced those episodes in the year two thousand, right, I mean, how I'm gonna Collectively, they probably all gasped when he said to Laurel, I, uh was in my turn to speak? Yeah? Can I talk to you know? I'm just like, wow, the Cajonis on this kid to say something like that to Laurel I, who's an obviously you know, you know, the mam a lion there and uh flexing her muscles to that kid, like, hey, you know, watch your step because this is a small town. And and I think, I'm just you know, I'm I've never seen it. I legit. I've never seen the episodes, right, um um. I was there fifteen hours a day, twelve hours a day. You know, I don't want to consume it. When I come home. I need to just shower and eat and go to bed and learn my lines for tomorrow. And that's all you have time to do. You don't have time to do anything else, So the last thing I want to do is watch the show. Um, but now it makes perfect sense. Something from Felicity And are you Madeline or Madeline Madeleine Madeline? We first of all, Felicity. Are you named after the iconic television character? I am actually not watched the show. And let me say I got some notes on that chair. Should we do a podcast on Felicity? Even though it's on it? So I won't say your ages, but you both look young? So are you under twenty? Yeah? I'm not. I tun So here is my question for you, and and thanks to Riley, we're going through all the pop culture references. So as you guys watch the show, do you know most of them? We do? Yeah? Or are some do look them up? Are they confusing? Or do most of them make sense? So most of them we understand. The ones that we don't will typically go to our mom because she's the one who is like full of knowledge about the old movies, old TV shows, stuff like that, and so she'll usually phillis in and then Felicity has a list going, Yeah, I do the movies we have to watch to understand all the references. That's amazing. Yeah, we ended up watching a bunch of old classics like Bringing a Baby and the way we were, Like, we're not huge big fans of like Barber streisand but we had to watch um the way we were And funny face, we have the DVD, but strangely we had never seen before and it's more life's favorite movie, so we had to watch it and then we're getting all of these extra clues and it's we put a lot of effort into understanding that pop culture references because every time we go back, it's so much funnier. M h, It's so much funnier. That's when you get the references. It changes the whole thing. Yeah, that isn't a wonderful how Gilmour is really uh in a certain sense of love letter to great literature, film and TV for sure. Yeah, and even like when when Tristan exits and Chad Michael Murray goes off and they find their own way to like put an ode to a literature and hit in his new show. And that's it's so great because these two thousand shows they're so touching too. There's into they're just so much better than shows nowadays. Really really Yeah, there's nothing like them. You two are adorable. We do like to compare ourselves to Lorelai and Rory because she's parenting me. But but sometimes she's more lowrily with the spunk. Anyway, guys, you're a lot of fun and uh, you know, we should we should have them back on. They are insightful info because yeah, you gotta come back one question. Oh you gotta get that question. Yeah, sorry, I wanted to know. Um, what like what you seeest Luke's biggest flaw? Flaw? Yeah? What what you see is his biggest flaw? And which decision it comes out in that you'd want to go back and change? Sorry, that's loaded. Yeah, I mean I don't know that it's just one flaw. I think that, Um, well, he's a bit closed off, isn't he. I he wouldn't be Luke if he was open and friendly and happy. And I just I think he's just a dark look he's a Northeast kind of guy. He's a he's a throwback kind of guy. He's a you know, only the northeastern part of the United States can produce a guy like that who's just so steeped in in in in historical significance. I mean, Stars Hollow is an historic town. I grew up in a historic town in southern New Jersey. I know what that's like. But um, with all the eccentric characters and the closeness of the community and the smallness of the community and how important that is and everybody being accountable, and I just think that he he just seems I don't know if it's a flaw, but it seems to me he suffered. And that's the way I always played it, that he suffered, you know, extraordinary trauma. Uh And whether it's emotional or whether he's just too sensitive a guy and he's covering up too much, and maybe whether the breakups of Rachel and girls before him have caused him, you know, to to to to sort of grow this very hard shell around himself and be so guarded. Um because and I think that's why it's so compelling to watch him draw up his guard and an attempt to be uh um, real and honest with his feelings towards Laurela and uh so yea for his flaws, you know, yea for his damage. And it's all very useful in a dramatic sense and a comedic sense. Um, but anyway, you guys are fantastic. It was great talking to a great meeting you. I got a feeling Amy, We're gonna be in touch with these two. These are these are these are astute young just saying, if you ever have to go on vacation, I now know who will be filling in for you. Waiting maybe if I have to go on vacation for you, I think I think we have some superstars, some budding superstars here. Anyway, great meeting you, girls, Okay, good talking to you. All right, all the best. So next we have Justin and he was a Warner Brothers tour guide and two of you actually briefly met at a pop up for the Gilmore revival in two thousand and sixteen. So we'll bring in Justin. Justin, I can hear you, I can't see you. But are you still working over Warner Brothers? No, No, I was. I was there, uh like two thousand and eleven or like two thousand thirteen. It's been a little bit. Yeah, all right, and we met. There's photographic evidence there is. Yeah. I think I think it's actually it's like five years to the day because it was October. I only know this because I was doing scrolling back through my photo role. Um, and it was right around the revival because there were some pop up shops that Netflix had done with the coffee shop, so we met there. Oh so we met in Beverly Hills at that pop up, right. I think if you if you google your name and Netflix Revival, like there we sometimes. Yeah, that was God. There were a lot of people there. Wow. Yeah, that was shocking. The cops were there trying to clear the street. They were like, get out of the street. You know, it's like, hey, wait a minute, these are gut more fans back off. I think you had come out at one point to like meet the overflow crowd because it was way more than people were anticipating, you know. I think that, Yeah, it was triple what anybody expected. So you have a question. But you know, being on the on the back lot, I guess and from my perspective and obviously many things I have filmed there were were there anything that you while filming, like uh found interesting about the particular sets, the practical sets, or about this studio in general that um, maybe you wouldn't know before or other people wouldn't realize. No, because at that point. I was pretty much a seasoned actor. I've been on a lot of sets, um and uh, you know, the thing that did impress me and surprise me the most was the size of our set. I mean we took the the entire back lot at Warner Brothers. I mean that it was just an extraordinary amount of real estate. And it's just for that one show. And Warner Brothers. Uh, you know they're producing I don't know how many, they're producing, thirty shows a year on average. Right, they're not all shot at Warner Brothers. But there's there's shows on sound stages, there's but I mean we took off this massive chunk of real estate over there, um, and we had sound stages that were ours and dedicated. I mean, it was just really a big commitment on the studios part. Uh. And that's the thing that that blew me away when we got there, was like the size, the amount of real estate. We had the recreation of Unionville up in Toronto right to create that, and it was just so it was a replica of the place and it was stunning. Um. I didn't know how good the construction crews really were until I got on that set. I want this is extraordinary work. Uh, and it helped us to believe that we were in these places that we had shot the pilot and it was it was extraordinary. Um So yeah, that's probably the biggest impression that hit me was the size of it and the detail of it. And then was your was your apartment set? Was that built inside the big practical that that high school area? Or was that stage? Yeah? No, that was the high school. It was inside the high school. Yeah. Yeah. I was always impressed just you know, being on those sets every day and bringing people around, you know, how much work went into making that looked like Stars Hollow or you know, any other small town that they that they made it look like. There's a lot more work than you would think watching it, you know at home on screen. So I always try to impress that upon people when visiting that it takes it literally takes a village. It does. No, it's it's hundreds of workers that are you know, high end people who are great craftsmen building all that stuff. It takes a lot. It takes a lot. Anyway, listen, we gotta go. We got one last guess they're waiting in the wings. It was great catching up with you man, and uh, all the best and thanks for your questions. All right, buddy, continue listening. Okay, thanks man, I appreciate it. Bye. Yeah, Riley, what do we have? We have another guest? Yes, we have our final guest, Jacqueline and uh fun story her and her best friend Kelsey. Um, this is the show is what has kept them close to each other throughout their childhood and um, Kelsey and Jacqueline haven't seen each other in years because Jacqueline is active duty and station across the country. So we'll get a little more on that. Here comes Jacqueline. Jacqueline. Hello, Hey, how's it going. It's going great. How you doing. I'm great. I'm so excited to get to chat with you. We're excited to have you. Welcome, Welcome, welcome. Um, So you have a friend that is a military person. I'm a military you're a military person. And where where are you stationed? I'm stan Northern California. Okay, Uh, well, thank you for your service first and foremost, and thanks for watching the show. And uh, apparently you grew up with somebody who and you remain bonded over this show all these years later. And tell us a little bit about her her name is Kelsey. She's my best friend from high school when we started swimming together when we were fourteen, and we've stayed in touch all these years. And she lives in New York City. UM, so actually got to visit over last month and that's when we emailed in. UM. But we send each other stuff back and forth about Gilmore all the time, like any random you know, posts that we see about it. She was the one that told me about this podcast, UM. And then we'll send like little games back and forth, like she'll randomly text me and be like, hey, watch episode seven of all seven seasons and we'll just kind of kind of like go through it like that or look for the clown pillow. And so it's just kind of kept us connected over the years. That's nice. Watch our favorite episodes every time we're together, right right. That's that's terrific. That's true. And that's been going on for how many years? I'm sorry, did you say ten years? Ten years? Wow? Decades? A decade is worth of Gilmore and bonding. That's wonderful. UM. Do you have so do you have a specific question you just want to chat? I do have a specific question of mine, So when we were like talking about our Gilmore games that we sent back and forth. We're wondering did the cast have any games, um, that they like played to pass the time on set, or any shenanigans they tried to get away with while you were filming. You when the days are getting long and the nights are getting rather silly, Well, um, you know most people just read. Uh, yeah, we would read a lot because it was so much time downtime, right, they'd bring you there. Let's say you had one scene to do in the afternoon, they'd bring you there early in the morning because they didn't know if they were going to get to the other scenes and maybe they were going to move your scene up or somebody's seen up to the morning and they were there ready to go already through hair and makeup and wardrobe, the whole thing. Um. So that's the job. The job is that what they pay you for is waiting around, and it's a lot of that. Were you reading new books, papers and magazines? Books? Yeah? What have you? I mean? Because it was the days before we could watch shows on our foods correct correct um, and we all had television sets in our trailers. But I don't think anybody ever watched them. We had we had phones we could call China with, but now I don't think anybody ever used them. We had fax machines. I never received a fact, you know in my trailer, but we had all of this stuff. Um and uh, I you know, I at one point played some practical jokes on a few of the cast members over the course of a couple of seasons. I nailed somebody's shoes to the floor of their trailer. They didn't appreciate that too much, so I stopped doing that. I put vassiline on the toilet seat of a certain cast member and he fell in and got stuck. Yeah, they will, they will. Uh, And I'll take it to the grave. I'm not gonna I'm not coughing up the inphoe um, you know, just a little stuff like that, and uh, just to keep it lively a little bit. I don't know if it was all the way appreciated, but I tried so somehow. Yeah. And it's a lot of pick you know. You go to the craft service table and you pick around the food a lot, and you eat bananas and eat grapes, and then you start eating junkie stuff and it was usually pretty good spreads and there wasn't unhealthy stuff at all, but um, you know you could eat too many bags of chips and get a tummy ache, right, Um, you just you just don't realize how famished you get when you're on set and you're just like burning up all this energy, and just because you're not running or being physically active, you don't realize how hungry you get, and you just sit there and start wolfing down large quantities of food standing up, like, wait a minute, really, you have a favorite. Do both of you have a favorite episode? One episode? Episode two hands down with the loyeralized first day it Chiltern by far my favorite it was. I would say it's like contender for top in this series too. I just love it. I think it's so funny. My second piado would be when the when they all reunite after Rory like moves out of the Gilmore House and they all have that argument, just kind of going back and forth and they rehash everything. That's that's the other contender. Those two are tops. Oh my god, that's so random. You bring that up. I stumbled on that on YouTube. Are you talking about the We're getting a hit of ourselves. So but I talk about the Friday night dinner and they like, cut to another scene, cut to another scene, and she's like, I'm not quitting the d A R that one. Yeah, and then and then lies I'll like Mr Gilmare is like, so, how's Luke And he's like, oh, he has a kid, just kind of sits there nodding. So funny you're bringing that up. I weirdly saw that on YouTube. So stay tuned, everybody, because in a couple of years we'll get to that this is good and they're all drunk and ripping on Logan ste Yeah, I totally know you're talking about. Yeah, But my favorite line from season one is definitely when um it was like from it was from Kiss and Tell, and I remember you guys were talking about this episode, but this line, I don't think it got brought up, and I was just like, no, it's my It's the best. When Rory tells Laurela about her first kiss and she goes and he said thank you, and where he goes yeah, and she goes, well that was very polite, and I just lost it. Now do you do you tell people about the show, you try to turn them onto the show. Oh absolutely, I've gotten many people involved. I work, even like on the night watches. Sometimes we'll just have like random TV shows on. I've learned that Gilmore comes on at three in the morning. Um, so when I'm on the night watches, will put that on and my like fellow watch dandiers will be like, wait, what's happening now, or like we'll come back a week later and they've missed like three seasons because it just keeps playing, and I'll be like, wait, I thought she was dating the other guy. Pretty great, all right, all right, Jacqueline, it was fun. Thanks for coming on. Thank you for your email. Keep them coming in, keep listening. We love that you love the show. Uh and uh we appreciate your time. Okay, thank you, all right, good meeting you. Thanks me, all right, take care. Are Gilmore fans the nicest people on the whole planet? Like literally that everyone is the sweetest kind of nicest people. I'm telling you, you know, every person that has stopped me in the last twenty one years, it's they've been just really great. They've been delightful, the sweetest thing. I get why people love it because it's minus minus A couple of emails, you know, but that had nothing to do with the show. I had everything to do with the podcast. So Scott, as we are rapping season one, we wanted to start a fun new bit. Okay, okay, what is this a shutter to think? Every few weeks we're going to go through the the reviews of the podcast wanting to read them. What so, Riley, We've got We're not gonna We're gonna do a couple of good ones, a couple of bad ones. Here we go, So what kind of what kind of music? What do you want? Something soft, something nice? Just for under Riley? Reading these reviews some will be painful. I'm addicted to it, but I'm not really impressed with the host. Mostly I find them annoying. But I love the Some pop culture the I heart producers are the worst, namely Riley. She is too young and uninformed about the show and pop culture culture overall. How are you hired for a job about a show you haven't seen and to go over the pop culture you aren't aware of? The good I love the banter and the behind the scenes info, particularly particularly like the deep dive into character's motivations. Honestly, though Riley is the real envy. I just finished my umteen three watch of Gilmore Girls when this podcast started. I am now watching all over again one episode a week to follow along hearing Scott's genuine excitement at the first time. Fewer is my favorite part. Cannot wait to see how he reacts to later seasons. See some are good, some are pretty good. Yeah, so keep them coming because we will read them, we take note of them. We will try to improve in season two. We'll try to be less annoying. This is the theme song for this bit. Hey, everybody picking on my ax right now. We're gonna be back breakdown season two. Just get a little groove on and I think you're all groovy?
