Speaker 3: special book Club edition. We're not recapping an episode, but
0:37
Speaker 3: we're going to be talking about Lauren Graham's book Talking
0:40
Speaker 3: as Fast as I Can from Gilmore Girls to Gilmore Girls,
0:43
Speaker 3: which she released in twenty sixteen. Have you read this
0:50
Speaker 3: one before?
0:51
Speaker 2: I did? I? Actually I read the hardcover first, and
0:56
Speaker 2: then I listened to the audio book when we were
0:59
Speaker 2: driving to Pop and so we listened to the audiobook
1:01
Speaker 2: there and back. It was exactly the right length. And
1:04
Speaker 2: so then when I reread it for this conversation, So
1:08
Speaker 2: this is the third time I've been through it, so
1:12
Speaker 2: got it.
1:13
Speaker 3: Yeah, this was my second. I read it when it
1:16
Speaker 3: first came out twenty sixteen. So there was a lot
1:19
Speaker 3: where I was like, oh, this is familiar, but a
1:21
Speaker 3: lot that I was like, oh, I didn't remember this.
1:23
Speaker 1: Like I couldn't talk about it if I didn't refresh.
1:27
Speaker 2: Yeah, exactly exactly. It's a fun read. I really enjoyed it.
1:32
Speaker 1: It's a really it's a really really fun read.
1:36
Speaker 3: I like the audiobook because it is as Loralai Gilmore
1:42
Speaker 3: as it's gonna get.
1:43
Speaker 2: Yes, Yeah, and I.
1:47
Speaker 3: Do like there was a lot I didn't know, Like
1:48
Speaker 3: I didn't know she was born in Hawaii and then
1:50
Speaker 3: moved to Japan, Like I had no idea.
1:52
Speaker 2: Isn't that crazy? And her first word was actually in Japanese.
1:56
Speaker 3: Yeah, and then I was like I literally paused and
1:58
Speaker 3: I was like, wait a minute, is this correct?
2:00
Speaker 1: Like I thought she was like messing with us. Also,
2:03
Speaker 1: I don't know if.
2:04
Speaker 3: You remember from when you listen to the audiobook, but
2:07
Speaker 3: was she used a male's voice when it was her dad?
2:12
Speaker 3: Was that her actual Was that her actual dad?
2:15
Speaker 2: I think it was. Yeah. I think it was her
2:18
Speaker 2: real dad, Okay, which is cool.
2:20
Speaker 3: That was cool, Yeah, yeah, because it was like and
2:22
Speaker 3: it sounded like he literally like sent in a voice
2:25
Speaker 3: note or something like the quality of it was so funny,
2:28
Speaker 3: which but I liked it.
2:29
Speaker 1: It kind of gave it like its little flair.
2:32
Speaker 2: Right right. Yeah. I enjoyed. I like how she talked
2:36
Speaker 2: about both, like she went through the first seven seasons,
2:41
Speaker 2: and then at the end of the book, she goes
2:43
Speaker 2: through and talks about what it was like to play
2:45
Speaker 2: that role again, because at the time, like now, it's
2:50
Speaker 2: every there are everybody's doing a reboot and a remake
2:53
Speaker 2: and you know, whatever you want to call it, So
2:54
Speaker 2: it's not it's it was less common at the time
2:57
Speaker 2: that an actor would go back and play the same
3:00
Speaker 2: role that they did, you know, forever ago. Like now
3:03
Speaker 2: it's more common, but back then it was pretty unique.
3:06
Speaker 2: So it was I like how she really liked that
3:11
Speaker 2: she got a second chance to do all of it,
3:13
Speaker 2: and how she appreciated it so much more the second
3:17
Speaker 2: time around, because it was like a gift that they
3:19
Speaker 2: had been given. So I thought it was fun. I
3:23
Speaker 2: enjoyed it.
3:24
Speaker 1: I am you know, for the first time.
3:26
Speaker 3: I'm always I'm always someone who I'm like, I want more,
3:28
Speaker 3: I want more, like I want more Gilmore girls. And
3:31
Speaker 3: I think this time reading the book, I'm okay if
3:35
Speaker 3: they don't do anything new.
3:38
Speaker 2: I have felt that way for a while. I kind
3:44
Speaker 2: of like, I mean, we all know who the dad is, Like,
3:48
Speaker 2: it's it's really not a cliffhanger, which if you haven't
3:53
Speaker 2: read first, well, the first yeah, for sure. So if
3:57
Speaker 2: you haven't read the book, she mentions, she she asked
4:01
Speaker 2: several different people that were involved. She's like, isn't this
4:03
Speaker 2: a cliffhanger? And she she was kind of stuck on it.
4:08
Speaker 2: But we know, you know, now that we've all like
4:10
Speaker 2: watched it one hundred times and analyzed the crap out
4:12
Speaker 2: of it, we know it's not really a cliffhanger, like
4:15
Speaker 2: just timing wise, there's only it has to be the time.
4:18
Speaker 2: It just doesn't work with anybody else. Yeah, I mean,
4:20
Speaker 2: I think the viewer can continue the story in their
4:23
Speaker 2: own head, Like I like to imagine Luke and Lorelei
4:26
Speaker 2: as grandparents, you know, like because when I imagine it,
4:29
Speaker 2: I can make it what I want. I don't have
4:31
Speaker 2: to go with what Amy gives us. So I as
4:35
Speaker 2: much as I love new content, like I loved when
4:38
Speaker 2: they did the Walmart commercial, like it was so fun
4:40
Speaker 2: to see them together again, like I don't I don't
4:44
Speaker 2: like if there is no more, I would be okay
4:46
Speaker 2: with that too.
4:48
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think, like I was, I was thinking about
4:50
Speaker 3: it because specifically as I was reading the book. There
4:54
Speaker 3: are some shows. I think there are some shows that
4:56
Speaker 3: I watched Growing Up. That did a great job. I
4:58
Speaker 3: think Fuller House with House did a great job. I
5:03
Speaker 3: think that Girl Meets World with Boy Meets World was
5:07
Speaker 3: it was. I didn't mind it, but I still go
5:09
Speaker 3: back to Boy Meets World, not Girl Meets World. So
5:11
Speaker 3: it made me think, like, what I like the continuation
5:17
Speaker 3: of the story of just because think about it, You're
5:20
Speaker 3: not gonna get everyone back, so you're the story would
5:24
Speaker 3: only really continue. Sorry I'm going on a complete different tangent,
5:27
Speaker 3: but you would only really get the story from Logan
5:30
Speaker 3: and Lorelai and their family. Now, yeah, you wouldn't and
5:34
Speaker 3: Laura I would pop in as the grandma like you
5:37
Speaker 3: don't have Richard. Emily would pop in as much as
5:42
Speaker 3: she could. Luke still works the diner. But then you
5:44
Speaker 3: really like everyone else is like a secondary character now
5:47
Speaker 3: they're not the main character.
5:49
Speaker 1: So exactly, it made me think like do I want it?
5:52
Speaker 2: Not?
5:52
Speaker 3: Really?
5:53
Speaker 2: Yeah?
5:53
Speaker 1: I like My Comfort Show the way it is.
5:55
Speaker 2: Right and you can't you know, the original run of
5:59
Speaker 2: the show was lightning in a bottle and that is
6:01
Speaker 2: hard to recapture. And that's why I tell people who
6:07
Speaker 2: haven't seen the a year in the life. I tell
6:11
Speaker 2: them don't expect it to be a continuation of the original.
6:15
Speaker 2: Think of it as its own thing. Think of it
6:18
Speaker 2: like a completely different show because the characters are the same,
6:22
Speaker 2: but it doesn't have the same look and feel and
6:25
Speaker 2: it doesn't make you feel the same way inside as
6:28
Speaker 2: the original show did. It's I think I actually like
6:31
Speaker 2: the revival. I do too, on its own merits. But
6:35
Speaker 2: if somebody's that it's expecting it to be like the
6:38
Speaker 2: original run is going to be disappointed. So so yeah,
6:42
Speaker 2: I think standing on its own is it holds up
6:46
Speaker 2: better than if you think of it as a continuation
6:48
Speaker 2: of the area.
6:48
Speaker 3: I think that's I think that's why I liked it
6:51
Speaker 3: because I kind of knew that it was for you know, movies,
6:56
Speaker 3: and then it was done. It wasn't like a season one,
7:00
Speaker 3: you know, and then it's like, oh, yeah, it's going
7:01
Speaker 3: to get canceled. It was like kind of like I
7:03
Speaker 3: already know there's only four and that was it. Like
7:04
Speaker 3: I kind of already had that in my head to
7:09
Speaker 3: go back to the book. I didn't realize that when
7:12
Speaker 3: they did that ATX Festival that they were already in
7:16
Speaker 3: talks for it. Yeah.
7:17
Speaker 2: I didn't remember that either, because I thought ATX was
7:20
Speaker 2: what gave them the idea and they started talking after that.
7:23
Speaker 2: I didn't realize they had already been kind of kicking
7:25
Speaker 2: it around before.
7:26
Speaker 1: Yeah.
7:27
Speaker 3: I also loved when Lauren was like, Scott had mentioned
7:31
Speaker 3: on a podcast. In my head, I was like, well,
7:33
Speaker 3: we weren't doing this show yet. I don't know what
7:34
Speaker 3: podcast you went on and said that, Yeah, I'd love
7:37
Speaker 3: to find out.
7:37
Speaker 2: Yeah, I can't remember which podcast.
7:40
Speaker 1: But also I'm sure someone spun it right.
7:43
Speaker 3: It was like they would be like, oh, like Scott,
7:45
Speaker 3: would you like to do another show, and Scott's probably like, yeah,
7:47
Speaker 3: I'd love to, and then it's like, let's let's make Amy,
7:50
Speaker 3: Let's make it happen.
7:51
Speaker 1: And then that got like spun out of control.
7:53
Speaker 2: Right, I mean, we've we've all seen that happen, Like one, yeah,
7:56
Speaker 2: tiny little comment gets taken out of context something.
8:00
Speaker 1: Oh the headline, and then you read the details and
8:03
Speaker 1: you're like, that's not what the headline was, right.
8:14
Speaker 3: I know I'm going a little bit out of order
8:16
Speaker 3: of the book, but I will say I thought it
8:18
Speaker 3: was very weird.
8:21
Speaker 1: Two things.
8:22
Speaker 3: One that they didn't tell everyone the show was ending,
8:28
Speaker 3: and that everyone found out on their own, like ed
8:31
Speaker 3: Herman found out from Like did she say like his dentist.
8:34
Speaker 2: It was I think he was in a video store.
8:36
Speaker 1: Oh something like that.
8:37
Speaker 3: Yeah, like ed Herman found out from that, Like they
8:40
Speaker 3: only told Lauren and Alexis, And I just think that,
8:47
Speaker 3: you know, maybe that's why I was young then. And
8:52
Speaker 3: also like news then was so different, right, Like she
8:55
Speaker 3: got like told a dinner that, like, you know, whatever,
8:59
Speaker 3: the show was canceled?
9:01
Speaker 1: No, no, was it?
9:02
Speaker 3: Did she find out that the show was getting canceled when
9:04
Speaker 3: she was at dinner the waiter came up or that
9:05
Speaker 3: the revival's happening.
9:07
Speaker 2: Know that the show was cancing the show was getting canceled.
9:09
Speaker 2: She was out with a friend and the like her
9:12
Speaker 2: or her manager or somebody called the restaurant.
9:14
Speaker 3: Yeah, like such a weird time, right, but like news
9:18
Speaker 3: spread so fast now, like unfortunately with like a lot
9:24
Speaker 3: of celebrity deaths sometimes like TMZ knows like announced it
9:28
Speaker 3: before the family knows. Like it's just things like that
9:30
Speaker 3: where I felt really bad when she was saying, like,
9:34
Speaker 3: you know, she wished she called everyone in the cast
9:36
Speaker 3: and told them and she didn't, but you know, it
9:39
Speaker 3: is what it is. And at least they got to
9:41
Speaker 3: all come back and they cherished it. But again I'm
9:45
Speaker 3: jumping around. Do you remember where you were when Prince died?
9:50
Speaker 3: Because I thought it was so interesting when she was like, oh,
9:54
Speaker 3: and then we were on set the day Prince died,
9:56
Speaker 3: And I'm like, so that day when I I knew
9:58
Speaker 3: where I was, Gilmore Girls was filming.
10:02
Speaker 1: It was such a weird thought.
10:04
Speaker 2: I do not remember. I remember Michael Jackson dying, but
10:08
Speaker 2: I do not remember where I was when I heard
10:10
Speaker 2: the Prince died.
10:11
Speaker 3: Prince dying was maybe because I was already working in entertainment.
10:15
Speaker 3: They filmed in Burbank. I was down the street at
10:18
Speaker 3: the iHeart office and I was working with Ryan Secrets
10:23
Speaker 3: at the time the morning show, and we had it
10:25
Speaker 3: was just after ten am when the news came out,
10:27
Speaker 3: so like we were just done with the show and
10:30
Speaker 3: then and we were about to all leave for the day,
10:32
Speaker 3: like I would think it was like close to eleven
10:33
Speaker 3: and we were about to leave, and the news broke
10:37
Speaker 3: and we all went back to our desks and then
10:39
Speaker 3: started getting like callers to like like planning out the
10:43
Speaker 3: next morning of like would you like to call in
10:45
Speaker 3: and like talk about Prince and this and that and
10:48
Speaker 3: stuff like that. But I just thought it was wild
10:50
Speaker 3: that I was down the street from where from where
10:53
Speaker 3: they were going.
10:55
Speaker 2: Yeah, I don't remember what I was doing, And actually
10:57
Speaker 2: I'm going to look it up and see, I don't
10:59
Speaker 2: even remember what that actual it was.
11:01
Speaker 1: I would think it was like in April or May.
11:05
Speaker 2: April twenty first, twenty sixteen, sixteen. Yeah, yeah, I was probably.
11:10
Speaker 2: I was probably at work.
11:11
Speaker 3: Which makes you makes it kind of crazy because didn't
11:15
Speaker 3: the revival come out in twenty sixteen?
11:17
Speaker 2: It did in No, it was November. It was around Thanksgiving. Yeah,
11:23
Speaker 2: so they shot from May from February through May of
11:26
Speaker 2: twenty A.
11:26
Speaker 1: Quick turnaround, I think.
11:28
Speaker 3: Yeah, what did you think about Lauren going back and
11:32
Speaker 3: watching the show, even though she hates watching anything she's
11:35
Speaker 3: in not Killmore Girls?
11:36
Speaker 2: Yeah, I thought it was fun to hear her her
11:42
Speaker 2: takes on everything, and I love how she pointed out
11:44
Speaker 2: like the technology and stuff that was at the time,
11:48
Speaker 2: and the styles, like the hair styles and the fashion
11:50
Speaker 2: and all that. So I thought it was fun. One
11:53
Speaker 2: note I did make was she because you and I
11:57
Speaker 2: talked about this when we recorded for that episode. How
12:00
Speaker 2: weird it was that Max proposed over the phone. I
12:04
Speaker 2: love that she called that out because you and I
12:06
Speaker 2: called that.
12:07
Speaker 3: We're like, really, yeah, so she said, she said season two.
12:14
Speaker 3: If you watch was it season two or was it
12:16
Speaker 3: season one? Now I'm blanking.
12:17
Speaker 1: I think it was season two.
12:18
Speaker 3: She said, if you watch the season premiere and the
12:21
Speaker 3: season finale back to back, the way they talk, is
12:24
Speaker 3: that the season that they started talking faster.
12:26
Speaker 2: Yes, which is the season we're watching right now. So
12:30
Speaker 2: I have to I thought when I read them in
12:33
Speaker 2: the book, and I'm like, oh, I have to look for
12:34
Speaker 2: that when I'm watching the episodes, and I keep forgetting
12:36
Speaker 2: so I'm going to have it.
12:36
Speaker 1: No, I know I will put it.
12:38
Speaker 3: But I mean, I think she meant, if you like,
12:41
Speaker 3: watch it back, like I would love to go back
12:42
Speaker 3: and watch the premiere in the finale and just compare.
12:45
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, because it kind of ramped up.
12:47
Speaker 1: And then also I was thinking, do you think she
12:49
Speaker 1: actually watched everything or she skimmed.
12:52
Speaker 2: I think she probably skimmed and just watched moralized scenes
12:57
Speaker 2: like I can't. I don't see her like a lot
13:00
Speaker 2: of time on you know, Luke and Nicole or whatever. Yeah, yeah,
13:04
Speaker 2: so probably that would be my guess was she probably
13:07
Speaker 2: just watched the Laura I scenes because otherwise it would
13:09
Speaker 2: take her a really.
13:10
Speaker 1: Long, really long time. Yeah.
13:12
Speaker 3: I I also did like how the wind she started
13:15
Speaker 3: talking about, Like the very beginning of talking about Gilmore Girls,
13:19
Speaker 3: she really shouted out almost every single actor in her book,
13:25
Speaker 3: from Scott to Melissa to Yannik, like everyone she to Rose, like,
13:32
Speaker 3: she really called everyone out. And like it may it
13:37
Speaker 3: makes you think, and I know we're very talking Gilmore,
13:40
Speaker 3: but mind you, that's a lot of what the book was.
13:44
Speaker 3: It made you really think, like those were there was
13:48
Speaker 3: something she said. I wish I had the quote in
13:50
Speaker 3: front of me, but I don't. But there was like
13:52
Speaker 3: nothing like it on TV at the time, Like it
13:55
Speaker 3: was everything was very like sexy, and you know, this
13:59
Speaker 3: was like an actual like if you were to walk
14:01
Speaker 3: down your street, like these are the types of people
14:03
Speaker 3: you would see, right, And I think that's what made
14:05
Speaker 3: the show special.
14:07
Speaker 2: Yeah, I agree, And I remember. So I didn't watch
14:11
Speaker 2: it when it originally aired. I watched it in twenty sixteen, actually,
14:16
Speaker 2: but I remember at the time and I think this
14:19
Speaker 2: is maybe a publicity issue. You didn't watch it because
14:25
Speaker 2: everything else that was on the air at the time
14:27
Speaker 2: was a teen drama, and I was like in my
14:31
Speaker 2: mid thirties, and so I thought, I mean like I
14:35
Speaker 2: was aware of it, like I'd see the ads for
14:37
Speaker 2: it and stuff, and I just thought it was another
14:39
Speaker 2: one of those you know, like the OC and you
14:42
Speaker 2: know all those other teen shows that were on the
14:44
Speaker 2: CW at the time, And so that was one of
14:48
Speaker 2: the reasons why I didn't watch it, because I'm like, eh,
14:50
Speaker 2: you know, I don't need to watch that. I didn't.
14:52
Speaker 2: Had I known at the time of how it was
14:55
Speaker 2: sort of a multi generational family drama, I probably would
15:00
Speaker 2: have watched it back then, but the way that it
15:02
Speaker 2: was marketed, I felt like it was because it was
15:04
Speaker 2: on the CW, and the CW was brand new, Yeah,
15:08
Speaker 2: and a lot of their shows were.
15:10
Speaker 1: Well, no, well didn't it start. It started as a
15:12
Speaker 1: WB and then it was.
15:14
Speaker 2: It was a WB, but even WB was was showing
15:17
Speaker 2: a lot of those shows at at that time.
15:19
Speaker 3: Yeah, I because I watched it obviously when it aired,
15:24
Speaker 3: mainly because my mom was watching it and I my
15:29
Speaker 3: mom told me I would like the show. So it
15:31
Speaker 3: really started with my mom and so then we started
15:33
Speaker 3: watching it together. But I remember I wasn't allowed to
15:38
Speaker 3: watch the OC until I was a little bit older
15:42
Speaker 3: because the OC was more like drugs and alcohol. Let
15:47
Speaker 3: me start watching it when I was like like in
15:50
Speaker 3: like eighth grade.
15:51
Speaker 2: Okay, the OC was.
15:54
Speaker 3: I think I caught the OC like on its tail
15:56
Speaker 3: end season, like I was like towards the end. But
15:59
Speaker 3: I remember around the same time was this show called Summerland.
16:04
Speaker 2: Oh yeah, I remember that.
16:05
Speaker 3: Remember summer Land with Laura Lachlan or Jess McCartney. That
16:09
Speaker 3: was zac Efron's first show, which is why it kind
16:12
Speaker 3: of then went from like me liking zac Efron and
16:14
Speaker 3: that to like high school musical.
16:15
Speaker 2: But they mentioned Summerland and Gilmore Girls.
16:19
Speaker 3: Yes, yes they do, and I think it crossed over
16:21
Speaker 3: and I think it was it. I mean, we could
16:24
Speaker 3: go back and look, but if I remember correctly, at
16:26
Speaker 3: one point it was on the same it was on
16:27
Speaker 3: the same night.
16:28
Speaker 1: Mmm, So I think that's why.
16:30
Speaker 3: But yeah, no, it's it's funny how like you thought
16:32
Speaker 3: of it like, oh, it was a teen show. But
16:33
Speaker 3: then like my mom was like, oh she would like
16:35
Speaker 3: toorrow like this. Yeah, so it's just funny.
16:38
Speaker 1: They did say when.
16:40
Speaker 3: They gave them the Thursday night slot in the beginning,
16:43
Speaker 3: I was like, Thursday Night's great, what is she talking about?
16:46
Speaker 3: But I think it's because she meant, like, oh, like
16:47
Speaker 3: Friends is on right.
16:49
Speaker 2: They were directly competing with Friends, which is another reason
16:51
Speaker 2: that I didn't watch it back then, is because I
16:53
Speaker 2: was watching Friends.
16:54
Speaker 1: You can only pick one show at a time.
16:56
Speaker 2: Right that first season. So yeah, I think that was
17:00
Speaker 2: the fact that they because Friends was already was a
17:02
Speaker 2: massive hit already when Gilmour came on, So the fact
17:06
Speaker 2: that they even survived against it for one season was
17:08
Speaker 2: pretty amazing, and then they.
17:09
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's true.
17:20
Speaker 2: One other thing that I liked in her recap of
17:25
Speaker 2: the original show was the fact that she did not
17:27
Speaker 2: remember that Lorela and Chris got married. Oh my god,
17:32
Speaker 2: they blanked that out of her memory.
17:34
Speaker 1: You know, the same.
17:37
Speaker 3: I think we all like, I remember when we were
17:40
Speaker 3: watching back this show with Scott the first time around.
17:44
Speaker 3: Once we got to season seven, I was like, I
17:48
Speaker 3: don't remember anything, and then every episode I was like,
17:50
Speaker 3: I remember it, And as the episodes went on, I'm like,
17:52
Speaker 3: this happened. But I am someone who stops watching at
17:56
Speaker 3: the end of season six, to be honest, when I
17:58
Speaker 3: do my rewatches. So but I will say, well, okay,
18:02
Speaker 3: it's funny you say that because at the Tony's this year,
18:07
Speaker 3: did you.
18:08
Speaker 1: Ever watch Glee?
18:09
Speaker 2: No, I mean episodes, but not we got it.
18:12
Speaker 3: So the very very end of Glee, because Liam Michelle
18:16
Speaker 3: was in it, Jonathan Groff and Darren Chris, I have
18:19
Speaker 3: a point.
18:19
Speaker 1: I'm getting there.
18:23
Speaker 3: There was a question someone asked on the red carpet saying,
18:26
Speaker 3: who do you who do you think something along the
18:29
Speaker 3: lines of like, who do you think Rachel Barry, who's
18:34
Speaker 3: Liam Michelle's character, is voting for at the Tonys or
18:38
Speaker 3: something this year?
18:39
Speaker 1: And Jonathan Off was like, of course it was.
18:46
Speaker 3: Basically I'm not going to get two details, but Rachel
18:49
Speaker 3: Barry at the end of the show is pregnant, and
18:50
Speaker 3: both Darren Chris and Jonathan Groff forgot whose baby she
18:54
Speaker 3: was pregnant with. It was Darren's baby. No, oh my god,
18:59
Speaker 3: now I'm mixing it up. Either way, no one could
19:02
Speaker 3: remember whose baby she was pregnant with. And then it
19:04
Speaker 3: makes me think Glee was the same way where the
19:07
Speaker 3: last season was so sad to film and it was
19:10
Speaker 3: so different that they probably just all blacked it out,
19:12
Speaker 3: like how they did this season of Gilmour Girls, not
19:15
Speaker 3: that they had lost anyone, but well they lost Amy
19:17
Speaker 3: and Dan on that season as but you know, not
19:19
Speaker 3: physically but right supporting.
19:21
Speaker 1: But yeah, it's.
19:22
Speaker 3: Also not a season that people talk about, like right,
19:25
Speaker 3: the quotable stuff like OI with the Poodles already or
19:28
Speaker 3: like season three.
19:30
Speaker 2: Yeah exactly exactly, because the viewers had moved on by
19:34
Speaker 2: then too. Yeah. So yeah, so I think season seven
19:39
Speaker 2: just in general does not get yeah love because of
19:42
Speaker 2: the whole Christopher thing. But I love that she just
19:44
Speaker 2: completely forgot that they had been married.
19:47
Speaker 1: I know, I am.
19:48
Speaker 3: I also like that she talked a little bit about
19:50
Speaker 3: Peter Krausa.
19:52
Speaker 2: Yeah, it was kind of sad.
19:53
Speaker 1: It's kind of.
19:54
Speaker 3: Sad when the book was released they were still together.
19:57
Speaker 3: Yeah so now knowing because they were together for a
19:59
Speaker 3: long time.
20:00
Speaker 2: Yeah, like ten or eleven years.
20:03
Speaker 1: Yeah yeah, but I did.
20:05
Speaker 3: I did, as someone in my thirties who was single,
20:09
Speaker 3: I did kind of like appreciate the way she spoke
20:12
Speaker 3: about the years she was single, just because I think
20:15
Speaker 3: that she didn't really like hate on it. Yeah, she
20:19
Speaker 3: was more just like didn't find the person at that time,
20:22
Speaker 3: and then I in my forties I found them, so Yeah.
20:25
Speaker 2: It's like you don't know when the train is coming
20:28
Speaker 2: or I forget exactly how she phrased it.
20:30
Speaker 3: But now when you think about it now, it's sad because, right,
20:32
Speaker 3: I know.
20:33
Speaker 2: Because you can obviously when you're reading it, you can
20:35
Speaker 2: tell obviously she doesn't know the future. She's going to
20:39
Speaker 2: be together forever. I mean that. I think that's what
20:41
Speaker 2: we all think when we're in a misship. But yeah, so,
20:44
Speaker 2: knowing how it turned out, it was kind of sad.
20:47
Speaker 1: Yeah.
20:48
Speaker 2: I did find so, being the you know, the nitpicky
20:52
Speaker 2: brain that I have, I actually did find a mistake
20:56
Speaker 2: in when she was rewatching the show which part she mentioned?
21:02
Speaker 2: I wrote it down. It was it's on page seventy
21:05
Speaker 2: three if you have the hardback, and she she's talking
21:11
Speaker 2: about Oh wait, no, page seventy three is where she's
21:15
Speaker 2: talking about it's weird that Max proposed on the phone. Yeah,
21:19
Speaker 2: there's a there's a part where she's talking about the
21:23
Speaker 2: DVD and the camera that Christopher got her. She said
21:28
Speaker 2: it was for Rory's graduation, but it wasn't. It was
21:32
Speaker 2: for Laurlized graduation when she graduated from business school. Oh,
21:36
Speaker 2: she said Rory's graduation in the book, and it wasn't
21:39
Speaker 2: Rory's graduation.
21:40
Speaker 1: It was Laura.
21:41
Speaker 2: I just had to call it that.
21:42
Speaker 3: Speaking of graduation, it wasn't the graduation episode, but to
21:47
Speaker 3: made me think of like a big episode. I didn't
21:49
Speaker 3: realize for the one hundredth episode, like all those people
21:52
Speaker 3: of that their friends and family were in the wasn't
21:55
Speaker 3: no sorry, was it graduation or was it the val renewal.
21:59
Speaker 2: I know her sister was in the graduation episode. I'm
22:05
Speaker 2: not sure about the vow renewal. I know she packed
22:08
Speaker 2: a lot of people into A Year in the Life.
22:10
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, you like her?
22:12
Speaker 3: Yeah, which, by the way, now I want to go
22:14
Speaker 3: back and watch May Whitman's scene.
22:16
Speaker 1: I didn't realize she was like deathly ill, Like yeah.
22:19
Speaker 2: You know, reading the book made me want to watch
22:21
Speaker 2: the whole thing again. And so I actually I was
22:25
Speaker 2: folding laundry last night and I put it on while
22:28
Speaker 2: I was doing it.
22:29
Speaker 1: On the Life.
22:30
Speaker 2: Yeah, I was watching the opening of A Year in
22:34
Speaker 2: the Life. So I watched like the first couple of scenes.
22:36
Speaker 2: I'm like, oh, it makes me just want to watch
22:37
Speaker 2: it again.
22:38
Speaker 3: Yeah, I think it's I think I had mentioned this
22:41
Speaker 3: to you, but or to everyone on the podcast, but
22:44
Speaker 3: I was at the premiere of A Year in the Life. Hmmm,
22:47
Speaker 3: so I got to see the first episode in the theater,
22:51
Speaker 3: in the theater where they did it. And it's kind
22:55
Speaker 3: of wild that this book came out like right at
22:57
Speaker 3: that time, around right the book.
23:01
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, she actually mentions I was going to talk
23:06
Speaker 2: about this in the paperback. So I actually have both.
23:10
Speaker 2: I have the heartback and the paperback. The paperback when
23:13
Speaker 2: they came out, they put a bonus chapter in it. Oh,
23:16
Speaker 2: so I bought the paperback last week because I wanted
23:19
Speaker 2: to read the bonus chapter. And she mentions talking about
23:22
Speaker 2: the release date her the book came out like within
23:26
Speaker 2: a week. I forget the exact date, but it was
23:28
Speaker 2: within a week marketing, I know, right sure that was
23:32
Speaker 2: not an accident, but yeah, they were within a week
23:35
Speaker 2: of each other.
23:36
Speaker 3: Wait, and now I want to get the book for
23:37
Speaker 3: the bonus chapter that I missed out on that was
23:41
Speaker 3: not in the audiobook.

Speaker 2: I'll take pictures and send it to you.
23:44
Speaker 3: By the way, I have the hardcover of the original,
23:46
Speaker 3: so yeah, I definitely don't have the bonus.

23:53
Speaker 2: from June twenty seventeen. Is the is the bonus chapter,
23:57
Speaker 2: so it's cute little stories in there.
24:01
Speaker 3: I like it well, I mean overall, I think for
24:04
Speaker 3: any Gilmore girls, and I liked this is my favorite
24:09
Speaker 3: book she's done more than the other one that we read.
24:12
Speaker 1: But this is more about her life and it's more
24:13
Speaker 1: about Gilmore.
24:14
Speaker 3: So I think anyone who wants a little bit more
24:17
Speaker 3: Gilmore insight, Yeah, this is the book.
24:20
Speaker 2: Yeah, and it has some I like the pictures that
24:23
Speaker 2: she put in it. It's got like pictures from college
24:26
