## Resource

Court is in session! The jury will now hear two arguments: were Emily and Richard Gilmore right about Rory dropping out of Yale? Or should they have gone with Lorelai’s plan? Today, Jackie and Catherine will make the case for each party. What could Lorelai have done better? When did Richard and Emily act too hastily? And finally, what do we wish someone would’ve told Rory? Today, we answer all those questions. ✨ If you want more chats about Gilmore Girls, get extra bonus episodes every month at patreon.com/gabbinggilmore ☕Get a free gift with some yummy “coffee coffee coffee!” at https://larryscoffee.com/gabbing 🍿Download “How to Throw a GG Watch Party - the Ultimate Guide!” completely free for your next Gilmore gathering ☕ Shop our merch at https://gabbing-gilmore.printify.me/ 🔎Remember, this is not a spoiler-free podcast, so everything is on the table. 👋Wanna share your thoughts?
