Hey, Cheesecakes! Over the next few weeks, we're rebroadcasting a few of our favorite episodes. We always love a good "Social Event of the Season" episode, and the catty banter among ailing Dorothy, Rose, and Blanche is stuff of legend. We hope you enjoy revisiting all the laughs we had with this episode! And also - we're nominated for two Webby Awards! If you'd like to vote for us, here are the links for ⁠Podcasts - Shows / Television and Film⁠ and ⁠Podcasts - Indiv Episode / Television and Film⁠ ---- WELCOME TO EPISODE 21 OF THE GOLDEN GIRLS DEEP DIVE PODCAST! In episode 21, it's a week before the volunteer awards ceremony, AKA The Social Event of the Season, and all of the women except Sophia come down with the flu. And we ask, what could be more fun than being on death’s door with your best friends? Shenanigans ensue when the gals start fighting over who will win the big award. For this week’s deep dive, Jenn will tell us all about the life and amazing career of casting director Allison Jones. Wait. Till. You. Hear. About. The. Christmas. Scaries. Our episodes are researched by Jess McKillop, Patrick Hinds, and Jennifer Simard. All of our sources can be found on our website. Follow us on Instagram and TikTok at @GoldenGirlsDeepDive
