<v Speaker 4>Alrighty? So, Rory and Laurlai have just been introduced to Charlotte,

0:01:04.720 --> 0:01:08.280
<v Speaker 4>Emily and Richard's house. Rory says, you know, Charlotte's Web

0:01:08.319 --> 0:01:11.160
<v Speaker 4>is one of my favorite books. Lorla says, spiders talking

0:01:11.200 --> 0:01:14.679
<v Speaker 4>to pigs. What could be better than that? Charlott's Webb

0:01:14.760 --> 0:01:16.880
<v Speaker 4>is a children's book written by E. B. White and

0:01:17.000 --> 0:01:20.120
<v Speaker 4>is considered a classic. The book was adapted into an

0:01:20.160 --> 0:01:23.280
<v Speaker 4>animated feature and a live action film, And did you

0:01:23.319 --> 0:01:25.959
<v Speaker 4>Know In Charlotte's web. In the live action movie, there

0:01:25.959 --> 0:01:29.920
<v Speaker 4>were forty seven Wilbers on set because the piglets grew

0:01:30.000 --> 0:01:32.040
<v Speaker 4>up so fast.

0:01:31.560 --> 0:01:35.280
<v Speaker 1>You can you imagine being the pig wrangler.

0:01:35.760 --> 0:01:37.440
<v Speaker 5>No, there's a lot of pigs.

0:01:37.520 --> 0:01:39.800
<v Speaker 1>That's a lot of piglets.

0:01:39.880 --> 0:01:40.560
<v Speaker 3>Lot.

0:01:41.080 --> 0:01:45.160
<v Speaker 1>Charlotte is explaining why she missed the table manner session

0:01:45.440 --> 0:01:48.040
<v Speaker 1>for the summer Cotillion. Charlotte, I'm awfully sorry about that,

0:01:48.080 --> 0:01:51.280
<v Speaker 1>Missus Gilmore. My grandparents took me to account Basie tribute

0:01:51.520 --> 0:01:58.320
<v Speaker 1>at Tanglewood. Count Basie was a jazz pianist, organist, bandleader,

0:01:58.400 --> 0:02:01.760
<v Speaker 1>and composer. Nineteen thirty five, formed the Count Basie Orchestra

0:02:01.800 --> 0:02:05.040
<v Speaker 1>and performed with them for over fifty years, at the

0:02:05.160 --> 0:02:06.120
<v Speaker 1>very top.

0:02:06.200 --> 0:02:07.840
<v Speaker 3>The zenith of that business.

0:02:08.160 --> 0:02:12.160
<v Speaker 1>Did you know? Count Basie's most famous collaborators included Frank

0:02:12.200 --> 0:02:19.440
<v Speaker 1>Sinatra and Tony Bennett. Bassi's orchestra performed with Sinatra several times.

0:02:20.520 --> 0:02:22.760
<v Speaker 1>What a man, what a time.

0:02:22.800 --> 0:02:24.840
<v Speaker 5>I think you should do the next one too, except your.

0:02:24.760 --> 0:02:29.240
<v Speaker 1>Alley really yeah, all right too in a row. I

0:02:29.240 --> 0:02:32.119
<v Speaker 1>mean we're breaking president here I go. I will need

0:02:32.200 --> 0:02:32.960
<v Speaker 1>extra pay.

0:02:33.720 --> 0:02:34.920
<v Speaker 3>Just letting you know.

0:02:35.880 --> 0:02:40.079
<v Speaker 1>Rory is helping tutor at Paris's sat Prep program. When

0:02:40.120 --> 0:02:42.600
<v Speaker 1>the timer goes off Paris, that's it pencils down. That

0:02:42.639 --> 0:02:46.200
<v Speaker 1>means you, Casanova, time is up everyone else, unless your

0:02:46.240 --> 0:02:48.560
<v Speaker 1>parents want to start paying overtime, which for many of

0:02:48.560 --> 0:02:52.840
<v Speaker 1>you might be a good idea. A Jacomo Casanovo was

0:02:52.919 --> 0:02:56.640
<v Speaker 1>a Venetian who lived from seventeen twenty five to seventeen

0:02:57.160 --> 0:02:59.480
<v Speaker 1>ninety eight. He was an adventure and author. He became

0:02:59.520 --> 0:03:02.359
<v Speaker 1>known as a ladies man. In his memoir, he wrote

0:03:02.919 --> 0:03:06.639
<v Speaker 1>that he made love to one hundred and thirty two

0:03:06.680 --> 0:03:11.240
<v Speaker 1>women hardly, hardly Wilt Chamberlain's standards. That's like Wilt Chamberlain

0:03:11.360 --> 0:03:12.320
<v Speaker 1>in one in a month.

0:03:12.400 --> 0:03:15.320
<v Speaker 5>I never knew his first name was Jakomo.

0:03:14.960 --> 0:03:17.760
<v Speaker 1>Though, Oh no, you know, I didn't either. I thought

0:03:17.760 --> 0:03:22.000
<v Speaker 1>it was Fred. His memoir has been turned into many

0:03:22.200 --> 0:03:28.560
<v Speaker 1>film adaptations starring Heath Ledger, Tony Curtis, Bob Hope, Donald Sutherland.

0:03:28.919 --> 0:03:33.919
<v Speaker 1>I think that Donald Sutherland was Bob Hope, Fellini Bob Hope.

0:03:33.960 --> 0:03:38.960
<v Speaker 1>Not to be right, that's not, yeah, it's not.

0:03:39.520 --> 0:03:41.160
<v Speaker 3>You would normally think God.

0:03:41.080 --> 0:03:43.360
<v Speaker 5>To Sully the great name of Bob Hope.

0:03:43.360 --> 0:03:50.920
<v Speaker 1>But yet, what Casanova? Did you know that Casanova achieved

0:03:51.320 --> 0:03:54.840
<v Speaker 1>celebrity status by mingling with famous people and making himself

0:03:54.840 --> 0:03:59.960
<v Speaker 1>the subject of gossip. He hobnobbed with Voltaire, Catherine the Gray,

0:04:00.920 --> 0:04:09.360
<v Speaker 1>and Benjamin Franklin. Well, wow, isn't he special anyway? I think, Amy,

0:04:09.400 --> 0:04:12.280
<v Speaker 1>it's this one. Let's know, I want to do this one.

0:04:12.320 --> 0:04:14.120
<v Speaker 5>I was going to say this one is better for

0:04:14.240 --> 0:04:14.680
<v Speaker 5>you too.

0:04:15.200 --> 0:04:18.719
<v Speaker 1>It really truly is, because I've actually read Henry Miller books.

0:04:21.240 --> 0:04:23.520
<v Speaker 1>Rory and Lane are in the library reading books to

0:04:23.560 --> 0:04:26.720
<v Speaker 1>help out with the recent problems pregnancy and boys. Rory, well,

0:04:26.760 --> 0:04:31.119
<v Speaker 1>it's supposed to be metaphorical and evocative. It's Henry Miller, Lane.

0:04:31.120 --> 0:04:34.920
<v Speaker 1>Henry Miller has better stuff than that. Believe me. This

0:04:34.960 --> 0:04:38.159
<v Speaker 1>is not why they banned his books. Henry Miller was

0:04:38.160 --> 0:04:42.159
<v Speaker 1>a writer who published several semi autobiographical novels. His work

0:04:42.240 --> 0:04:47.839
<v Speaker 1>blended personal philosophy, social critique, UH, and candid depictions of

0:04:48.520 --> 0:04:53.160
<v Speaker 1>s X. His books were banned for decades in the

0:04:53.360 --> 0:04:58.360
<v Speaker 1>United States. I remember in high school reading a book

0:04:58.400 --> 0:05:00.240
<v Speaker 1>that has called The Time of the Assassin. It was

0:05:00.240 --> 0:05:01.120
<v Speaker 1>a book about Rombo.

0:05:01.760 --> 0:05:04.080
<v Speaker 5>I had never even heard of this guy until Gilmore Girls.

0:05:04.240 --> 0:05:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Oh Henry Miller, really, oh wow? The book Rory is

0:05:08.640 --> 0:05:13.000
<v Speaker 1>reading is called sexist The first volume is the Rosie

0:05:13.000 --> 0:05:17.279
<v Speaker 1>Crucifixion Trilogy. The book is about Henry Miller's early sexual

0:05:17.440 --> 0:05:22.919
<v Speaker 1>escapades in Brooklyn. Did you know Henry Miller had five wives? Shocking?

0:05:23.120 --> 0:05:28.080
<v Speaker 1>I was gonna say shocker. I wasn't about to read

0:05:28.760 --> 0:05:33.800
<v Speaker 1>attended church regularly. It was going to be had five wives.

0:05:33.839 --> 0:05:34.480
<v Speaker 1>Thank you very much.

0:05:43.920 --> 0:05:46.200
<v Speaker 5>This was funny. Lourlai welcomes the young girls to the

0:05:46.240 --> 0:05:49.440
<v Speaker 5>inn to practice for cotillion. Is the library ready for us,

0:05:49.480 --> 0:05:52.400
<v Speaker 5>Emily says Lorlai. Yes, the tables are set and the

0:05:52.400 --> 0:05:54.360
<v Speaker 5>tea is brewed, and I have hired some extra poor

0:05:54.360 --> 0:05:57.320
<v Speaker 5>people for the girls to look down on. Charlotte. She's

0:05:57.360 --> 0:06:01.360
<v Speaker 5>the one I told you about a regular. Immagene Coka Michelle,

0:06:01.440 --> 0:06:04.080
<v Speaker 5>Oh my god, I love them. They're like Madame Alexander

0:06:04.160 --> 0:06:05.239
<v Speaker 5>dolls come to life.

0:06:05.600 --> 0:06:05.680
<v Speaker 2>So.

0:06:05.839 --> 0:06:08.640
<v Speaker 5>Immagene Coca was a comic actress, best known for her

0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:10.719
<v Speaker 5>role on Your Show of Shows with Sid Caesar. She

0:06:10.800 --> 0:06:13.240
<v Speaker 5>was nominated for five Emmy Awards and won for Best

0:06:13.279 --> 0:06:16.279
<v Speaker 5>Actress in nineteen fifty one. But most people listening to

0:06:16.279 --> 0:06:19.000
<v Speaker 5>this podcast know are from one of two things. Her

0:06:19.120 --> 0:06:23.640
<v Speaker 5>role on The Brady Bunch, where she was to look

0:06:23.800 --> 0:06:26.480
<v Speaker 5>like jan and I think Jan was kind of like

0:06:26.960 --> 0:06:30.480
<v Speaker 5>bent out of shape that in earlier years she looked

0:06:30.520 --> 0:06:33.960
<v Speaker 5>like Imogene Coca and it's like, come on, Jan, and

0:06:34.680 --> 0:06:40.599
<v Speaker 5>she's Aunt Edna from vacation. Who the dog Pete on

0:06:40.640 --> 0:06:41.360
<v Speaker 5>the sandwich?

0:06:41.480 --> 0:06:42.520
<v Speaker 3>She died.

0:06:42.560 --> 0:06:43.960
<v Speaker 5>They put her on top of the car.

0:06:44.160 --> 0:06:45.800
<v Speaker 1>Oh, that was Imagene Coca.

0:06:45.880 --> 0:06:49.919
<v Speaker 5>Yeah, these are classic imaging Coca roles that we might know.

0:06:50.440 --> 0:06:53.880
<v Speaker 5>Immagene Coca survived a serious car accident in nineteen seventy

0:06:53.880 --> 0:06:56.520
<v Speaker 5>three with left her without sight in her right eye.

0:06:57.160 --> 0:07:00.000
<v Speaker 5>Now we also can talk about Madame Alexander Dolls. Madam

0:07:00.080 --> 0:07:04.280
<v Speaker 5>Alexander Doll Company is a manufacturer of collectible dolls founded

0:07:04.279 --> 0:07:08.599
<v Speaker 5>by Beatrix Alexander in nineteen twenty six. Madam Alexander created

0:07:08.600 --> 0:07:10.920
<v Speaker 5>the first doll based on a licensed character, which was

0:07:10.920 --> 0:07:14.000
<v Speaker 5>Scarlettlehair from the movie Gone with the Wind and.

0:07:13.960 --> 0:07:19.080
<v Speaker 1>A nice fact that's a nice factory tire. Europe was

0:07:19.200 --> 0:07:19.720
<v Speaker 1>the last one.

0:07:19.760 --> 0:07:20.640
<v Speaker 4>There weren't that many of this.

0:07:21.240 --> 0:07:23.440
<v Speaker 5>I feel like I have a theory on that they

0:07:23.560 --> 0:07:28.160
<v Speaker 5>bombarded us with so many weird pop culture references, not weird,

0:07:28.280 --> 0:07:31.160
<v Speaker 5>but too many that it got weird. In the one

0:07:31.240 --> 0:07:32.080
<v Speaker 5>before that.

0:07:32.040 --> 0:07:37.400
<v Speaker 1>Somebody was like dialog a wow, Also, this is truly

0:07:37.520 --> 0:07:40.280
<v Speaker 1>one of the big reasons why everything feels off, because

0:07:40.320 --> 0:07:43.160
<v Speaker 1>the pop culture references are I don't know, maybe.

0:07:43.040 --> 0:07:46.680
<v Speaker 5>Really sure, they're mostly there's very few, they're very historical,

0:07:47.080 --> 0:07:49.120
<v Speaker 5>and I think it's because, like you know how you

0:07:49.120 --> 0:07:51.120
<v Speaker 5>said you get notes. I bet you someone gave a

0:07:51.120 --> 0:07:53.840
<v Speaker 5>note like too many and then they just did nothing.

0:07:54.160 --> 0:07:56.560
<v Speaker 4>I wonder also, did you notice in so far the

0:07:56.640 --> 0:07:59.880
<v Speaker 4>first three episodes, there's a lot of food talk, like

0:08:00.080 --> 0:08:01.040
<v Speaker 4>more than pop culture.

0:08:02.400 --> 0:08:04.880
<v Speaker 5>Maybe it's like a crutch they're like when in doubt

0:08:04.920 --> 0:08:06.520
<v Speaker 5>talk about food or pop culture.

0:08:06.680 --> 0:08:08.560
<v Speaker 4>Yeah, like PP and J pop tarts, like we're just

0:08:08.600 --> 0:08:11.880
<v Speaker 4>gonna throw like sandwiches. Like there's there was a lot

0:08:11.920 --> 0:08:12.600
<v Speaker 4>of food talk.

0:08:12.840 --> 0:08:14.240
<v Speaker 1>Hmmm, that's interesting.

0:08:14.720 --> 0:08:18.600
<v Speaker 4>So Charlotte is introducing Lorelei to her grandparents. Arthur says, oh,

0:08:18.640 --> 0:08:21.840
<v Speaker 4>the famous Laura I. Lorale says famous. I have to

0:08:21.880 --> 0:08:25.000
<v Speaker 4>catch up on my US weeklies. Arthur says, Charlotte told

0:08:25.080 --> 0:08:28.000
<v Speaker 4>us you were a card. Beverly says, she also told

0:08:28.040 --> 0:08:31.320
<v Speaker 4>us that you were a delightful dining companion, like Noel

0:08:31.360 --> 0:08:35.520
<v Speaker 4>Coward and Slim Keith rolled into one. Lorlai says, oh, well,

0:08:35.520 --> 0:08:39.080
<v Speaker 4>she's delightful too, like Shirley Temple and Mother Teresa and

0:08:39.160 --> 0:08:43.160
<v Speaker 4>someone with very good table manners rolled into one. Noel

0:08:43.200 --> 0:08:45.920
<v Speaker 4>Coward was a playwright, director, an actor known for his

0:08:46.000 --> 0:08:50.200
<v Speaker 4>wit and flamboyance. Slim Keith was an American socialite and

0:08:50.240 --> 0:08:54.160
<v Speaker 4>fashion icon of the fifties and sixties. Slim also is

0:08:54.200 --> 0:08:56.720
<v Speaker 4>featured as one of the Swans in the current Ryan

0:08:56.800 --> 0:09:01.680
<v Speaker 4>Murphy show Feud Capodi Versus the Ones, and Slim is

0:09:01.679 --> 0:09:05.559
<v Speaker 4>portrayed by Diane Lane in the series. Shirley Temple is

0:09:05.559 --> 0:09:09.200
<v Speaker 4>an American actress, singer, dancer, and diplomat who is the

0:09:09.240 --> 0:09:12.839
<v Speaker 4>Hollywood who was Hollywood's number one box office draw as

0:09:12.880 --> 0:09:13.800
<v Speaker 4>a child's.

0:09:13.400 --> 0:09:16.400
<v Speaker 5>Access She went on to be an ambassador to something.

0:09:16.679 --> 0:09:19.760
<v Speaker 4>Yep, and I still to this day ordered Shirley Temples.

0:09:19.760 --> 0:09:22.920
<v Speaker 4>And did you know the Shirley Temple drink was created

0:09:22.960 --> 0:09:25.160
<v Speaker 4>when she was out at a restaurant and needed something

0:09:25.280 --> 0:09:26.839
<v Speaker 4>non alcoholic to drink.

0:09:28.800 --> 0:09:30.120
<v Speaker 1>That's famous.

0:09:30.160 --> 0:09:32.840
<v Speaker 5>Oh yeah, she was whining over her parents sipping old

0:09:32.880 --> 0:09:37.160
<v Speaker 5>fashioned drinks, which also come with a signature Marashina cherry.

0:09:37.240 --> 0:09:38.080
<v Speaker 4>Oh yeah the best.

0:09:38.160 --> 0:09:42.200
<v Speaker 5>So the waiter created a version for her. Yeah and so,

0:09:42.400 --> 0:09:48.040
<v Speaker 5>and every kid loves a Marashino cherry mm hmmm, so

0:09:48.160 --> 0:09:51.280
<v Speaker 5>that's interesting. My theory on the pop culture is too

0:09:51.440 --> 0:09:57.840
<v Speaker 5>much now too little, Just like Goldilocks, I can't quite

0:09:57.880 --> 0:09:58.439
<v Speaker 5>get it right.

0:09:58.760 --> 0:10:00.480
<v Speaker 4>There's only six I know.
