Fully Puffed: A Gilmore Girls Podcast

by Fully Puffed

Join Grace, Kathryn, and Ebo, three Gilmore Girls superfans, as they discuss all things related to the show! They'll be rewatching each episode and doing a deep dive into character development, recurring themes, and why they just keep returning to Gilmore Girls. You can expect a healthy amount of Dean-bashing, Lorelai outfit appreciation, and a sincere conviction that this is one of the best shows of all time. You'll also hear  ...   ...  Read more

    Coffee, Please. And a Shot of Cynicism

    Join Kathryn and Grace as they break down S1E16: "Star-Crossed Lovers and Other Strangers!" (Content warning: this episode of the podcast contains a discussion of verbally abusive relationships. If you want to listen to the rest of the episode but skip that part, stop at 1:02:00.) We talk about one of our favorite minor characters (hello, Chase!), why we're huge fans of Rachel, and why we would love to get the chance to attend Miss Patty's Story Hour. We also discuss everything that goes down the night of Stars Hollow's Firelight Festival, whether that's Lorelai and Richard reconciling, Rachel and Luke's define-the-relationship moment, or one of our least favorite scenes in Gilmore Girls history. Plus: more David Lynch/Gilmore Girls parallels, some all-time fashion highs and lows, and Grace's truly awful Richard impression!

  • I'm a Chuck Berry Man Myself

    I'm a Chuck Berry Man Myself

    Tune in as we tackle S1E15 "Christopher Returns": an episode that has everything that makes Gilmore Girls great! There's town stuff! Family drama! Luke and Lorelai angst! Chuck Berry references! Plus two of the worst people to ever appear on screen: Straub (which we now know how to spell) and Francine! Join us as we break down Christopher and Lorelai's relationship, that incredibly painful Richard and Lorelai scene, and why we feel especially badly for Rory here. Plus, a discussion of The Offspring, Richard's love of Chuck Berry, and the one line that almost ruins the whole episode!

    Join Ebo and Grace as they break down one of the most controversial episodes of Gilmore Girls: "That Damn Donna Reed!" This is the first episode of Fully Puffed we've ever recorded in person, and we have a great time (and go on a LOT of really fun tangents) discussing this one. Tune in to find out which Gilmore Girls actor is now hosting meditation retreats/life coach sessions (don't worry--we've signed up!), to hear our theories about who Dean would've voted for, and to learn about our (at this point, totally fake) Patreon. As you might've guessed, we also spend a lot of time analyzing the Donna Reed plot, and trying to figure out why the writers made certain....very interesting choices. This is a super entertaining installment of the pod, and we'd love for you to tune in!

  • I Don't Talk to Anybody. People Annoy Me

    I Don't Talk to Anybody. People Annoy Me

    While some may say that "Concert Interruptus" is just one long commercial for The Bangles (and they're probably right), we have a great time talking about everything in the episode, from god-awful fashion (seriously, it's some of the worst in the whole show), Lorelai's jealousy over Rachel, and Madeleine and Louise's decision to ditch the concert. We also provide a definitive answer to whether the Rachel/Anna Nardini timeline adds up (thanks to Ebo, a #womaninSTEM), learn a lot about Seventh Day Adventists' relationship to food, and figure out whether or not Charles I received a fair trial (spoiler alert: probably not?).

  • They Don't Even Have the Real Red Vines

    They Don't Even Have the Real Red Vines

    Join Kathryn and Grace as they reveal themselves to be secret Rune defenders (okay, it’s not that they actually like him—they just think he’s fun on the show!), celebrate Sookie and Jackson finally getting together, and overall, just have a great time with S1E12 “Double Date.” They also figure out where else they’ve seen every minor character in the episode, debate whether double dates are ever a good idea (spoiler alert: almost never), and, perhaps most importantly, make a case for why Pop Tarts should be bigger. Plus: Kathryn dishes about Fugazi t-shirts, Grace finally gets to deliver one of her favorite lines, and the Puffs figure out which character is almost certainly a time-traveling serial killer.
