We’re back with a bonus! We’re joined by Kristine from Gilmore Book Club to chat about Daisy Miller by Henry James and how it relates to the infamous GG episode “Say Goodbye to Daisy Miller” and the Rory/Dean affair. We had a great conversation about the novel, the episode, and how it relates to the show as a whole. Let us know your thoughts and stay tuned for the first episode of season 3 of WOQM coming soon!

That's right, this is the last episode of WOQM as a Gilmore Girls Deep Dive Podcast. The end of an era! Sariah and Élaina reflect on this project and get very gushy, but make sure you stick until the end because we are not going anywhere! A bright new chapter awaits and we hope you'll come along for the ride.
Let us know your thoughts on the next show we'll cover at @woqmpod on Instagram or at [email protected]. Just make sure you let us know if there are spoilers in your message!

You know her, you love her, the show wouldn’t be the same without her, it’s the one and only Paris Geller. We chat all about her and Rory’s relationship, her contributions to the show, and what makes her such an iconic (and complicated) character.

'Tis the season to rank all of Lorelai's paramours, in the the most irreverent and idiosyncratic way, which is the only way for these Women of Questionable Morals. We talked about race, we talked about politics, we talked about all the teams we could be on regarding a non-sporty Rory's love life. It's time to play Soooooo You Think You Want to Date Lorelai Gilmore!

Which Gilmore Girls plot point would we remove? Is Rory a cat person or a dog person? What’s our least favorite episode? Where the heck have we been? You asked and we answered all of this and more in our very first Q&A! We had so much fun recording this to celebrate reaching 10,000 listens. We can’t thank y’all enough for showing up every episode and being just as Gilmore-obsessed as we are. Our mid-season hiatus is over, so we shall see you in three weeks for our next Friday Night Dinner!

That's a wrap! We did it y'all, we made it to our final episode breaking down the revival. In this episode we chat about Wild (and just how wild that plot point is), Emily saying B-Y-E to the DAR, the logistics of getting from Nantucket to Stars Hollow, and, of course, those final four words. We'll be taking a short mid-season break but we'll be back talking about our problematic faves very soon!

The four, the merrier! That's right, Suzanne and Alexis from the Talking Fast podcast are back to help us discuss Summer, the third part of A Year in the Life.
We discuss all things capitalism, fatphobia, therapy, and finding your voice as a writer. So put on your bathing suit, grab a ridiculously large sun hat, and jump in to this splash of an episode!

Our episode on Spring is finally here! If you follow us on Instagram then you know that we’ve been met with technical difficulty after technical difficulty trying to get this episode up. But finally, after a herculean effort, it has arrived. In this second breakdown of the revival we chat about the (failed) attempt at Stars Hollow charm, the chaos of Luke, Lorelai, and Emily, and Rory’s complete and utter inability to pivot.

We've made you wait a year for us to discuss a most infamous year - A Year in the Life, that is. But, alas, it's finally here. (We're done speaking like we're at Liz and TJ's wedding now). This has got to be one of the most hotly debated and criticized aspects of the Gilmore Girls universe and we’ll be breaking it all down over the next four episodes. First up is Winter, and we’re joined by Suzanne and Alexis of Talking Fast podcast (another excellent GG pod!). We'll get into what worked, what didn’t, what they could (and should!) have changed, and how this first episode (for better or worse) sets the tone for the rest of the revival.

If you know you know with this week’s episode title. That’s right, we’re talking about that pesky little thing called money. Wealth (or lack thereof) is one of the most consistent themes (and sources of conflict) within the entire show. In this episode we’ll be discussing its effect on our Gilmore Girls and their choices and relationships. We’ll also finally be answering a question we posed multiple times in season one, being: Can you really run away from wealth?

That’s right, y’all! Our episode on Dean & Rory’s rollercoaster of a relationship is finally here. We couldn’t think of a better way to kick off season 2 than with a *super* deep dive into one of the more fanbase polarizing relationships on the show. Admittedly, we aren’t Dean’s biggest fans, however, we can humbly and honestly say that we gave him a pretty fair analysis in this one. We’re so excited to be back for another season and can’t wait to hear your thoughts about these two!

Did you miss us? Well, don't fret, because your favorite Gilmore Girls analysts are back with season 2! We have many fun and exciting episodes coming this season, and we're kicking it all off by discussing the chaotic rollercoaster that is Rory and Dean's relationship. So, set your Hello Kitty alarms because we'll be dropping our first episode of the season on Friday, May 5th. Don't be late!
Also, if you know you know for this episode's title! One of the best scenes in Gilmore Girls history, in my (Sariah's) humble opinion.

The time has come and the time is now. We have not listened to those who said we could not podcast (and by “those” we mostly mean our busy schedules and pesky time zones) and now we give you our Season 1 finale: the oft-requested episode on Rory dropping out of Yale.
This topic leads us to discuss mental health, so if you think you would benefit from talking to a professional, here are some resources you may want to explore. We recognise that mental health support and services are not accessible to everyone, so we also encourage you to write to your political representatives to request more healthcare justice.

It’s the mother of all mother-daughter relationships. It’s a trainwreck we cannot look away from. If you ask Lorelai, it is like living with Stalin, but Emily says she’s just being dramatic. That’s right, it’s time for our Emily & Lorelai episode! They laugh, they cry, they are passive aggressive with each other, they are aggressive with each other, they love and harm each other in quick succession, and we can’t get enough. We also spill the tea on Richard, and, SPOILER: It was the patriarchy all along.

It’s time for our feminism analysis episode! We give the show credit, but don’t shy away from pointing out the problematic liberal White individualist “lean in” feminism of Lorelai and Rory. There is so much to cover, so maybe we’ll make a part 2?

Welcome back! For this week’s episode we’re jumping into fatphobia, pretty privilege, and the role that they play in the world of our beloved Gilmore Girls. We dissect what it means for the show, the characters, and of course Rory’s infamous ballet recital review. Stay tuned until the very end for a sneak peek at the final two episodes for this season!

"Hey Lor"..."Hi kiddo"...If you're anything like us, hearing those words sends you running because it means Christopher Hayden has just entered the scene. Today, we’re going to be talking about the many shortcomings of Christopher and analyze the impact that his behavior has on Lorelai and Rory's lives.

Today we’re talking about the way that race and politics intersect in the world of Stars Hollow. We give credit where it’s due and critique where it’s lacking, but it all comes from our love of the show. As long-time GG fans and BIPOC women ourselves, we thought this would be a really interesting topic to discuss.
