Speaker 3: the events, some of the people, some of the ways
0:35
Speaker 3: that you can step into the world of Stars Hollow.
0:37
Speaker 3: It is so much fun. And we've got some boots
0:40
Speaker 3: on the ground journalism this week. We have a reporter.
0:43
Speaker 3: We've got an intrepid cub reporter here that has gone
0:46
Speaker 3: to one of these events that we've talked so much about.
0:49
Speaker 3: We've got a real no filtered review. She is going
0:51
Speaker 3: to tell us exactly what happened. Our beloved producer, Jackie Rodriguez.
0:56
Speaker 2: She is here. Hi, Jackie.
0:58
Speaker 5: Hello. How are you? Oh, I'm honored to be on
1:01
Speaker 5: Miss Patty's.
1:02
Speaker 3: It's an honor to have you. We're such big fans
1:04
Speaker 3: and we've been trying to get this booking for a
1:06
Speaker 3: very long time.
1:07
Speaker 2: So this is a thrill.
1:07
Speaker 5: Oh my gosh.
1:08
Speaker 3: A major thrill for me. Jackie, you stay on top
1:13
Speaker 3: of all these Gilmore themed events and stuff like that.
1:17
Speaker 3: And you got to experience one in person for the
1:20
Speaker 3: first time on this show. Tell us what you got
1:24
Speaker 3: to do in beautiful San Diego, California.
1:26
Speaker 1: Yes. So like I said, I am steeped in it
1:29
Speaker 1: because I run the Instagram and you know, your algorithm
1:32
Speaker 1: feeds you like when you like one event, here's the rest.
1:35
Speaker 5: And it is, Everywhere, all over the nation, all these
1:39
Speaker 5: small towns.
1:40
Speaker 1: You know, there's the big official ones that we've talked about,
1:42
Speaker 1: that Destination Stars Hollow, Flannel and Foliage coming up, and
1:45
Speaker 1: the new Milford one.
1:46
Speaker 5: Those are the big, big ones.
1:48
Speaker 1: But there's these like small unofficial ones that are so,
1:51
Speaker 1: they look so good. Like they get all the merch.
1:54
Speaker 1: And then I stumbled upon one in San Diego, and
1:56
Speaker 1: that's where I live. And I was like, oh my gosh,
1:58
Speaker 1: bought a ticket right away. So every weekend for the
2:02
Speaker 1: past month, I think this weekend's the last weekend. For
2:05
Speaker 1: a couple hours, this place turns into many stars hollow.
2:09
Speaker 1: And it's from Ryan Brothers Coffee in City Heights. Now,
2:12
Speaker 1: if you know San Diego, you know Ryan Brothers Coffee.
2:14
Speaker 1: There's several locations throughout San Diego. But this one, City Heights,
2:18
Speaker 1: a couple miles for me. So I was like, great,
2:20
Speaker 1: I'm going to go over and head out. So it
2:23
Speaker 1: was so cute. And they've turned the whole inside into
2:26
Speaker 1: stars hollow.
2:27
Speaker 2: That.
2:28
Speaker 4: Okay.
2:28
Speaker 3: So when you say that, what does that entail? Like,
2:31
Speaker 3: like when you, when you walk in, what do you see?
2:33
Speaker 3: What is there decorations or people dressed up? Like what's
2:36
Speaker 3: going on?
2:37
Speaker 5: Yes.
2:38
Speaker 1: So the whole coffee shop is decorated. They have Gilmore
2:41
Speaker 1: girls playing on their two screens that normally have the menus,
2:44
Speaker 1: but they put Gilmore girls up. They have all the,
2:47
Speaker 1: they have a little stars hollow sign. Welcome to our
2:49
Speaker 1: mini stars hollow. They have foliage everywhere. Play it on foliage.
2:53
Speaker 1: Cause I just said the, you know, the event coming up, but, um,
2:57
Speaker 1: And they also have a flight, a fall flight of
3:00
Speaker 1: espresso drinks.
3:02
Speaker 2: All right.
3:02
Speaker 5: Is it espresso? Espresso.
3:04
Speaker 2: Espresso. It happens to the best of us, Jackie. It's okay.
3:08
Speaker 5: Sorry. I just called myself espresso drinks.
3:11
Speaker 1: And it's all like, and then they have, you know,
3:15
Speaker 1: Luke's signage everywhere.
3:17
Speaker 5: And they have Luke's cups everywhere.
3:18
Speaker 1: They have these little, even mini Chinese takeouts.
3:23
Speaker 5: Cartons from Al's Pancake World.
3:26
Speaker 2: That's awesome.
3:26
Speaker 1: And then the details of everything that they've thought of.
3:29
Speaker 1: And they have Rory's ice cream photo, you know, when
3:35
Speaker 1: she was ice cream queen. Yes. And they have her
3:37
Speaker 1: photo on the bulletin board. And they have like Miss
3:40
Speaker 1: Patty's ads on the bulletin board. So they went all
3:43
Speaker 1: out and they knew exactly what to do. But their
3:45
Speaker 1: fall espresso drinks were like the pumpkin spice latte, salted
3:49
Speaker 1: maple latte, Biscoff latte. And then a s'mores latte. And
3:53
Speaker 1: so I had four little mini drinks. And then I
3:59
Speaker 1: got served Pop-Tarts.
4:01
Speaker 2: Pop-Tarts. Oh, my God. That's incredible.
4:03
Speaker 3: I'm looking at a video of it right now. It
4:05
Speaker 3: looks awesome. It looks so delicious. And all these drinks
4:10
Speaker 3: are just made with such care and artisanal skill.
4:14
Speaker 6: Yes.
4:15
Speaker 3: Yeah. That is so fun. I love when coffee shops
4:18
Speaker 3: do this. It is such a, it lends itself so
4:21
Speaker 3: well to Gilmore Girls. And I love the idea of
4:25
Speaker 3: like being able to like go into Luke's for a.
4:28
Speaker 2: Few moments, you know, even if it's not.
4:30
Speaker 3: Like bringing Luke's Diner to a place like San Diego,
4:34
Speaker 3: especially a place in California where you don't really get
4:36
Speaker 3: that fall experience.
4:38
Speaker 5: No, because it's so hot this week.
4:41
Speaker 1: There were ice drinks, by the way. I was sweating
4:43
Speaker 1: when I walked in. And of course it was air conditioned.
4:45
Speaker 1: But then when she served me the drinks, they're all iced.
4:47
Speaker 5: I'm like, thank God. Cause it was hot this week.
4:50
Speaker 1: But, um, also another thing that it was a paint
4:53
Speaker 1: and sip, like you get your four drinks and then
4:56
Speaker 1: you get a little tote bag with a Luke's stencil.
4:59
Speaker 5: And then they give you.
5:00
Speaker 1: Orange and like that dark Brown that Luke says to
5:03
Speaker 1: paint the logo on.
5:04
Speaker 5: A tote bag.
5:05
Speaker 2: That is so fun.
5:06
Speaker 1: Yeah. I, I spent my time talking to people, so
5:10
Speaker 1: I didn't paint and I was talking to people. So
5:15
Speaker 1: I brought it home with me and then I let
5:17
Speaker 1: my kid have the paint. So, but yeah, it was,
5:21
Speaker 1: everybody was painting and sipping and it was like just
5:24
Speaker 1: all women and all different walks of life.
5:27
Speaker 5: So it was cool. It was nice.
5:29
Speaker 2: Yeah.
5:29
Speaker 3: That was my next question is like, who, who did
5:31
Speaker 3: you see at this kind of thing? Like, like I'm
5:34
Speaker 3: assuming a hardcore Gilmore girls fans. Uh, was there, was
5:38
Speaker 3: there anyone who was like, Hey, I just wanted a
5:40
Speaker 3: cup of coffee. What the hell is this? What's going
5:42
Speaker 3: on here?
5:43
Speaker 5: Well, the coffee shop was actually closed for that.
5:45
Speaker 2: Okay.
5:46
Speaker 5: Like it's, it's open from like five to three.
5:49
Speaker 1: And then during the weekdays, and then it's open like
5:52
Speaker 1: seven to three on the weekends. So I went in
5:55
Speaker 1: at four o'clock. So it's like specifically something to do
5:57
Speaker 1: in the afternoons. And I spoke with the managers, Celeste
6:02
Speaker 1: and Maxine. And I was like, well, why did you
6:05
Speaker 1: guys do this? You know, well, who came up with
6:07
Speaker 1: the idea? Because I wanted to figure out who's the
6:09
Speaker 1: hardcore Gilmore fans in this coffee shop.
6:12
Speaker 5: Because they had so many, they even had cookies.
6:15
Speaker 1: Like shaped like daisies, because that's how Lorelai got proposed
6:18
Speaker 1: to for Max. And so there's these just details that
6:21
Speaker 1: I noticed. And I know that every other Gilmore fan
6:24
Speaker 1: would notice. So I asked them what made them want
6:27
Speaker 1: to do these events.
6:28
Speaker 6: We're always thinking about stuff that we can do in
6:31
Speaker 6: the afternoon so people can come over to the coffee shop.
6:35
Speaker 6: And we are fans of Gilmore Girls. And I told
6:38
Speaker 6: my sister, you know what, I would love to do
6:39
Speaker 6: something like Stars Hollow in fall.
6:42
Speaker 5: I would love to do that.
6:43
Speaker 6: Let's try to do this event because we try events
6:46
Speaker 6: in the summer too and we have like really good response.
6:49
Speaker 6: Let's do something simple, the flights that we already have
6:52
Speaker 6: and then we can do like maybe paint home backs
6:55
Speaker 6: and activities so people can enjoy, come with their friends
6:58
Speaker 6: and everything. And like, okay, let's do one event. It
7:00
Speaker 6: was going to be one Saturday, three hours. They can
7:02
Speaker 6: enjoy it.
7:03
Speaker 5: They can have fun. And then it sold out.
7:05
Speaker 6: And I was like, oh, that's great. It was only
7:07
Speaker 6: 15 spots, I believe. It was only 15 spots. I
7:09
Speaker 6: was like, oh, that's great. We were really happy. Like, oh,
7:12
Speaker 6: that's good. We're going to have fun. We love Kimo Girls.
7:16
Speaker 6: And then people started, like, commented like oh you should
7:20
Speaker 6: do another day they're like you know what like yeah
7:22
Speaker 6: the coffee shop is already um all decorated we have
7:26
Speaker 6: all this spread let's do it right i did a
7:28
Speaker 6: second date and it got sold out and then they're
7:31
Speaker 6: like okay that's crazy and then like people just start
7:34
Speaker 6: like Do another one, do another one. And then at
7:37
Speaker 6: the end, we end with 10 events. They're all sold out,
7:41
Speaker 6: and it's been really fun.
7:42
Speaker 1: That's cool.
7:43
Speaker 4: It's funny enough, because at the beginning, so we're trying
7:46
Speaker 4: to advertise it with our customers, right? It's something that
7:49
Speaker 4: we like, that we love, that we want to share.
7:51
Speaker 4: But we didn't know how it was going to be,
7:53
Speaker 4: you know? So I was trying to advertise it, and
7:56
Speaker 4: nobody knows about Gamer Girls.
7:58
Speaker 5: And I was like.
7:59
Speaker 4: None of our customers, yeah. So I was like, oh,
8:01
Speaker 4: we're like a little like, oh, Maxine, I think it's
8:02
Speaker 4: going to be harder, but we can try it. And then,
8:05
Speaker 4: that same day, she sent me a text, it's sold out.
8:07
Speaker 4: And I was like, no way.
8:09
Speaker 5: So we reached.
8:10
Speaker 6: They're going to come around.
8:12
Speaker 5: They're going to find us.
8:12
Speaker 4: So we reached another kind of like customers and other
8:15
Speaker 4: kind of people. And to be honest, it's been super
8:17
Speaker 4: cute seeing the moms, the daughters, like bonding.
8:20
Speaker 6: Yeah, we have really cute groups coming over. And daughters, like,
8:25
Speaker 6: they're younger. So for me, it's like, oh, wow, because
8:27
Speaker 6: I was... I watched this series, this show, when I
8:30
Speaker 6: was in middle school. And now seeing younger girls look
8:34
Speaker 6: at the show, it's like, oh, wow, this is so cute.
8:37
Speaker 3: Maxine and Christian there, sharing their inspiration for this incredible event. Okay,
8:44
Speaker 3: hearing that level of detail that goes into this is
8:47
Speaker 3: so exciting because any Gilmore event is going to be fun,
8:51
Speaker 3: just by nature of Gilmore Girls is very fun.
8:54
Speaker 2: We all love it.
8:55
Speaker 3: But like there are some times where you see like
8:57
Speaker 3: a place is like, oh, we're doing a Gilmore Girls night.
8:59
Speaker 3: And it's like there's a guy behind the counter wearing
9:01
Speaker 3: a flannel and, you know, they have Gilmore Girls play
9:04
Speaker 3: on TV and that's it. You know, something like that.
9:06
Speaker 3: But like hearing about like the Daisy cookies and the
9:11
Speaker 3: Alice Pancake World takeout box, that is just so incredible.
9:14
Speaker 2: And that's so fun.
9:15
Speaker 5: And let me tell you more. Let me tell you more.
9:17
Speaker 1: So they had, you know, the whole debate, Logan, Jess
9:21
Speaker 1: and Dean. So they had little like popsicle sticks with
9:24
Speaker 1: their heads on it, you know, like to like hold up,
9:27
Speaker 1: you know.
9:27
Speaker 5: Oh, are you a Logan? Are you a Jess? Are
9:29
Speaker 5: you a Dean? And so I took pictures of Jess
9:32
Speaker 5: because I like Jess.
9:32
Speaker 1: But like, of course I took pictures of all of it,
9:35
Speaker 1: but you'll see it on social media if you want
9:36
Speaker 1: to see what this.
9:37
Speaker 5: All looked like. But like, it was just every single detail.
9:41
Speaker 5: What else did they have?
9:42
Speaker 1: Oh, they had the menu that was, you know, a
9:44
Speaker 1: Luke Steiner menu, you know, with your little, like she
9:49
Speaker 1: gave you a plastic like, eight by 11 card that
9:52
Speaker 1: explained the drinks.
9:53
Speaker 5: And then it had Luke Steiner menu on there.
9:56
Speaker 1: And then they had like, um, Oh, a dozes little
10:01
Speaker 1: bags of, um, just, you know, like for decor. So
10:05
Speaker 1: they printed the dozes and, um, logo and then put
10:08
Speaker 1: on like paper bags and then had that as decor
10:10
Speaker 1: as well. So yeah, many details and you know, these
10:13
Speaker 1: are fans. And I actually asked Maxine and Christian, what
10:16
Speaker 1: does Gilmore girls mean to you?
10:18
Speaker 6: It's pretty cool because I was talking to my husband
10:22
Speaker 6: about this. I watch Game of Girls all the time, right?
10:25
Speaker 6: And when I watch it in middle school, I really
10:27
Speaker 6: connect with Rory because we were almost the same age.
10:30
Speaker 6: When I watch it again, I connect with Lorelai. And
10:34
Speaker 6: then now I get Emily... I get her so much.
10:40
Speaker 6: And it's so funny because it's something that we do
10:43
Speaker 6: and then we do it with my mom too. So
10:45
Speaker 6: it's almost like a tradition that we do one time
10:49
Speaker 6: a year that we all watch it. We put it
10:51
Speaker 6: on the background and it gets this feeling of nostalgic.
10:55
Speaker 6: It's really nostalgic, brings memories like when I was younger.
10:59
Speaker 6: It's something really cool.
11:01
Speaker 4: Wow.
11:02
Speaker 3: I love hearing from people that channel their passions into
11:07
Speaker 3: something like this. It's just so fun. And it's so
11:10
Speaker 3: great to be able to be part of this. Jackie,
11:12
Speaker 3: I have so many more questions about this incredible event
11:15
Speaker 3: you went to at Ryan Brothers Coffee. But first, we've
11:17
Speaker 3: got to play some commercials. One second, everybody.
11:28
Speaker 2: It's me. I miss Patty's.
11:30
Speaker 3: My name is Easton Allen in here with producer Jackie,
11:32
Speaker 3: our boots on the ground reporter. She went to a
11:35
Speaker 3: Gilmore girls paint and sip at a, at Ryan brothers
11:38
Speaker 3: coffee in San Diego. And we are just getting into
11:42
Speaker 3: it here. So this kind of event, uh, you have
11:45
Speaker 3: to be like, it's a ticketed event, right? You have
11:47
Speaker 3: to like pay admission.
11:48
Speaker 2: Yeah. So it was $ 30, $ 30.
11:51
Speaker 5: Like, yeah. Worth it.
11:54
Speaker 1: And it's not like the big event where, you know,
11:58
Speaker 1: Those big events sometimes are a little pricey, but it's
12:02
Speaker 1: worth it, obviously, because you're going to go see the
12:04
Speaker 1: actual cast members. But if you can't go to those
12:07
Speaker 1: big events, don't live around Danville. Don't live around New Milford.
12:11
Speaker 1: If you don't live around Michigan, you can go to
12:16
Speaker 1: these little small pop-ups that these coffee shops have.
12:19
Speaker 5: And it's so... cute.
12:21
Speaker 1: It's just, I felt so at home, like, you know,
12:23
Speaker 1: and Maxine Christian said, you know, it's comfort and they
12:27
Speaker 1: put the show on for the background and it's become
12:29
Speaker 1: a tradition for like their moms and they relate to,
12:32
Speaker 1: you know, other characters as they grow up, you know,
12:34
Speaker 1: it's like just that comfort of like warm hug walking
12:38
Speaker 1: into that coffee shop.
12:39
Speaker 5: And everybody was so nice. Everybody was so nice. All
12:41
Speaker 5: is all women. And everybody was just like, you know,
12:45
Speaker 5: like there's, they had a lot of tables of two.
12:47
Speaker 1: There was about room for like 30 people, but they have,
12:49
Speaker 1: you know, they had 10 of these events and they
12:52
Speaker 1: all sold out. So, you know, it was just, like
12:56
Speaker 1: moderate while you're in there and just like having fun.
12:59
Speaker 5: So it was, it was nice.
13:01
Speaker 3: That's so, that's so fun. I love that so much.
13:03
Speaker 3: They're doing another one this weekend on Saturday, the 10th.
13:07
Speaker 3: And I think that might be the last one. Is
13:09
Speaker 3: that right?
13:10
Speaker 4: Yes.
13:10
Speaker 6: Yeah.
13:11
Speaker 1: Friday tonight from six to eight and then Saturday four
13:14
Speaker 1: to six. And so yeah, ninth and 10th will be
13:17
Speaker 1: their last ones. But they did tell me, I was like,
13:19
Speaker 1: you're not taking down all this decor, are you? And
13:21
Speaker 1: they're like, no, it'll be up for the rest of October.
13:24
Speaker 1: So I'm like, okay, good. So even if you can't
13:26
Speaker 1: go to those specific events, like you can still walk
13:29
Speaker 1: in and still feel like you're part of Stars Hollow.
13:31
Speaker 1: So yeah, you can go visit City Heights. It's on
13:34
Speaker 1: University Avenue in San Diego. And it's fun. I just
13:39
Speaker 1: love all this Gilmore lore that's around, you know?
13:43
Speaker 5: Like it's crazy. The fandom. And I knew of this fandom.
13:47
Speaker 1: I didn't know until I started producing this show, you know,
13:50
Speaker 1: because like I'm a massive, massive Friends fan. And I
13:54
Speaker 1: have been for the past 20 years, however long. And
13:57
Speaker 1: I always think of myself when I'm producing the show.
13:59
Speaker 1: I'm like, what would I want to know from Friends? OK,
14:02
Speaker 1: put myself how passionate I am about Friends, put myself
14:05
Speaker 1: in the Gilmore Girls universe.
14:07
Speaker 5: And now I've become one of those.
14:09
Speaker 2: This is great.
14:10
Speaker 5: There's a lot of Friends correlations with Friends. Gilmore Girls,
14:13
Speaker 5: by the way.
14:13
Speaker 2: Oh, yes, yes. They complement each other very nicely.
14:17
Speaker 5: Wear the same clothes, too.
14:18
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah. That's Phoebe.
14:21
Speaker 5: You pointed that out on Starz Hollow Style.
14:24
Speaker 3: Yes, yes. The connections run very deep between those two worlds.
14:29
Speaker 3: That makes me so happy to hear that is so fun.
14:31
Speaker 3: And you know, this is in San Diego, but I,
14:34
Speaker 3: but just from doing the, uh, like doing this meet
14:38
Speaker 3: me as Patty's show, if you're in like, look in
14:42
Speaker 3: your town, if you're listening to this, just go like
14:44
Speaker 3: go on Instagram or, or just hit the pavement, start
14:48
Speaker 3: knocking on doors. There was probably a Gilmore style thing
14:50
Speaker 3: going on this fall in whatever town you're in. It's
14:54
Speaker 3: such a fun thing to do. It brings the community together.
14:56
Speaker 3: It's just such an inspiring thing.
14:58
Speaker 6: Yeah.
14:59
Speaker 2: I love it. I love it.
15:00
Speaker 3: Do you remember what episodes were playing when you were
15:04
Speaker 3: in Ryan Brothers Coffee?
15:05
Speaker 5: Oh, yes, I do.
15:06
Speaker 1: All right.
15:06
Speaker 5: I sure do.
15:07
Speaker 2: I know they probably just hit play, but I'm very
15:09
Speaker 2: interested just what was playing.
15:10
Speaker 4: Okay.
15:11
Speaker 5: It was play when I walked in.
15:12
Speaker 1: It was, I think it was season seven premiere or
15:17
Speaker 1: it was the scene where Lorelai, because I looked up
15:20
Speaker 1: and Luke, he was like going on one of his rants.
15:22
Speaker 5: When Lorelai told Luke that she cheated on him with Christopher.
15:27
Speaker 5: I know. That's why I remembered it. That's why I
15:31
Speaker 5: remembered it. Well, it was four o'clock.
15:34
Speaker 1: I wonder, I don't know why they chose season six
15:36
Speaker 1: or was it season seven? I should look up the
15:38
Speaker 1: episode number, but it was that scene where Lorelai's standing
15:41
Speaker 1: on her doorstep and then Luke is going off and
15:43
Speaker 1: he has his truck packed because he's going to go
15:46
Speaker 1: with Lorelai and then he's going off and saying, we
15:48
Speaker 1: can do this.
15:49
Speaker 5: I can do it. I can marry you.
15:50
Speaker 1: And it's like right after she gave him the ultimatum
15:53
Speaker 1: and then she's just like, her head is just down.
15:55
Speaker 1: She's like, Luke, I slept with Christopher last night. And
15:58
Speaker 1: they're just like, oh, because I watched that scene because
16:00
Speaker 1: Scott's so good in those scenes when he goes on
16:02
Speaker 1: his rants. And it caught my eye. And I was like, oh,
16:05
Speaker 1: and I know.
16:06
Speaker 5: Exactly what that is. You know?
16:08
Speaker 1: And so, oh, man, I was like, yep, that's the one.
16:12
Speaker 1: But I don't know why they chose those ones. I
16:16
Speaker 1: think it was just probably playing in the background. You know,
16:17
Speaker 1: maybe they have a play in the background the whole time,
16:20
Speaker 1: not just for these events. Because, again, you can't just
16:22
Speaker 1: walk in and see all the decor and stuff.
16:24
Speaker 4: So.
16:25
Speaker 5: It was cool.
16:26
Speaker 1: And I just love that, like, you know, we all
16:29
Speaker 1: want to find a sense of community. Like, in times
16:32
Speaker 1: like this, we all want to feel like we're less alone.
16:34
Speaker 1: And if you find something in common with somebody and
16:37
Speaker 1: it just opens up the conversation to, like, a friendship. Like,
16:40
Speaker 1: I love talking to other Friends fans. And I will
16:42
Speaker 1: say a line and they will know exactly what.
16:43
Speaker 2: I'm talking about.
16:44
Speaker 1: You know, me and my friend Cassie, my best friend.
16:47
Speaker 1: She's my, she's, I'm Monica, she's Rachel. You know, I
16:51
Speaker 1: gave her a mug that said, like, Monica to Rachel.
16:53
Speaker 1: And the connection we have with that show is like
16:56
Speaker 1: the same kind of thing that Gilmore Girls fans have
16:58
Speaker 1: with those shows.
16:59
Speaker 5: You know what I mean?
17:00
Speaker 1: So it's like we feel less alone. We feel like
17:02
Speaker 1: we can connect and we feel like we can just like, oh,
17:05
Speaker 1: let's think of a time that was just so much
17:07
Speaker 1: better than now. You know, we can escape to. And
17:11
Speaker 1: that's what this coffee shop does. It brings people together.
17:14
Speaker 1: So Ryan Brothers, City Heights. And they have themed events
17:18
Speaker 1: like throughout. They did Valentine's Day. They did one for summer.
17:22
Speaker 1: So I can't wait to see what they do for
17:23
Speaker 1: like Christmas and stuff. You know, they have these themed events,
17:26
Speaker 1: Maxine and Christian, they're very creative and very like, oh,
17:30
Speaker 1: we got to bring more business in. And it's really cool.
17:32
Speaker 1: I love what they're doing. And you know, it's not
17:34
Speaker 1: just like a, like a stucco Starbucks, you know, this
17:39
Speaker 1: is one that's in the community, one that's like bringing
17:41
Speaker 1: people together.
17:42
Speaker 2: So that is so important.
17:43
Speaker 3: And that is such a major theme and a tenant
17:47
Speaker 3: of what makes Gilmore Girls special is the importance of community.
17:50
Speaker 1: And, uh, yeah.
17:51
Speaker 3: And, and, you know, being there for one another and
17:53
Speaker 3: connecting with one another. And that just makes me so happy.
17:56
Speaker 3: You got to do this. And that coffee is hosting
17:59
Speaker 3: something like this. That's so cool. Yeah.
18:01
Speaker 4: Yeah, it is.
18:01
Speaker 1: I don't, I'm not sure what about their other locations,
18:03
Speaker 1: but this location in city heights on university Avenue. And
18:06
Speaker 1: if you live in San Diego, you know, university Avenue,
