71. November Bonus: Emotional Labor Part 2: the women who hold it all together
We’re back for Part 2 of our deep dive into emotional labor in Gilmore Girls!Enjoy this preview. For the full episode, join our Patreon, where you’ll get extra bonus episodes every month. In Part 2 of this series, we explore how the women of Gilmore Girls - from Emily to Lorelai and even side characters like Sasha - boost up the men around them by dimming their own light or taking on most of the emotional, care, community, and relational work.We also dig into the bigger picture: how women are often the ones building community, preserving important family relationships (we’re looking at you, Trix!) and carrying the emotional weight for others. From Emily helping Richard recover (it’s all about the fish) to Lorelai supporting Luke through surprise family drama, the women of Stars Hollow are constantly doing the quiet, unseen work of care and community that keep everything going.Grab your coffee and settle in - this is one of our favorite conversations yet about the emotional heartbeat of Gilmore Girls.🎙Edited and produced by Jackie Procyk and Catherine Bailey.

70. Rory's Bad Day
Oof. In just 24 hours, Rory Gilmore faced two emotional gut punches - Lorelai and Christopher’s surprise marriage announcement, and Logan’s less-than-glowing reaction to her article. In this episode, we unpack one of Rory’s worst 24 hours: how these moments hit us as viewers, and how we’d feel in Rory’s shoes. First, we revisit the build-up: Lorelai and Luke’s broken engagement (did anyone check how Rory felt?) and the mounting stress that came after ending her term as editor of the newspaper and contemplating life after Yale. We ask:Were Lorelai and Christopher right to tell Rory about the marriage together?Why couldn’t Rory be vulnerable in front of her dad?How does this moment mirror her “ballerina” article from Season 4?Was Rory completely unaware of her privilege? What was Logan unwilling to recognize about himself?Grab your coffee and join us for a deep dive into Rory’s stress tendencies, her arc as a Yale student and journalist, and the mother-daughter tension on our favorite Stars Hollow show.Episodes referenced:Rory and criticism: does she have Golden Child syndrome?Why does everyone hate Rory?
