Description

There’s no business like show business, and there are no references like theatre references! Thanks to Paris (and later, Lorelai), our programs say we’re in for a full two acts of Broadway pop culture refs. Why does Paris want to beat Jerome Robbins? How is Brad like Chita Rivera? Why does Paris want him to sit down like Mary Martin? And how does Lorelai’s doodling resemble Al Hirschfeld’s? And bonus: Can Kyla finally name all 4 of the Beatles? You can bet we’re singing and dancing our way through our research to find out. Plus, in addition to all this talk about choreography, music, performance, and art, we catch up on the latest award news for The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.
Other pop culture we ref: Xanadu, Ishtar, Ingrid Bergman, Meryl Streep, I Dream of Jeannie, Funny Girl, West Side Story, The Sound of Music, Guys and Dolls, Chicago, Bye Bye Birdie, Dick Van Dyke, Ethel Merman, White Christmas, Gene Kelly, Frank Sinatra, Vera Ellen, Fiddler on the Roof, Ariana Grande, Gwen Stefani, Gypsy, Peter Pan, Into the Woods

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.
