WELCOME THE GOLDEN GIRLS DEEP DIVE PODCAST! Starting from the beginning of the show, each week we recap an episode of The Golden Girls. Along the way, we sprinkle in researched deep dives into something from the episode or The Golden Girls universe!

In Season 2 Episode 18, we're joined by the Graham Cracker Crust Steve Tipton to help break down this episode while Mother Cheesecake is - oh, you know - dealing with her TONY NOMINATION! In this episode, Dorothy has a new love interest, but shenanigans ensue when he's revealed to be a man of the cloth - and we don't mean a furniture salesman!

In Season 2 Episode 17, get ready to hear Jenn tell Patrick that she absolutely does not love him and that the podcast is over…err, actually…that they should probably just not ever share a bed. WHATEVER, CHEESIES, IT WILL ALL MAKE SENSE IN THE EPISODE. This week, the gals take a trip down memory lane and relive various travel adventures. Shenanigans ensue when a SNOWSTORM hits MIAMI (finally, all those sweaters make sense) and the ladies descend on a diner. And then take it over, as you do....

CHEESECAKES! We are SO EXCITED to share our interview with the GREAT Marc Cherry! Of course Mr. Cherry is probably best known for creating the mega-hit series "Desperate Housewives", but did you know he got his start writing on the final seasons of "The Golden Girls" - including writing fan favorite episode "Journey To The Center of Attention"? It was SUCH a thrill to get to hear his behind-the-scenes stories and favorite memories of working with these icons! And we would very much like to thank him for being a friend!

Shenanigans ensue when all the kids get picked up at the end of the day... except baby Emily. Will the Golden Girls start their mothering journey once more (and not just in the MOTHER Cheesecake way?!?!?!)?

Interview: Marco Pennette: "Golden Palace" and "Death Becomes Her: The Musical"" Writer. Apr 21, 2025

Show notes

Go To Greece With Patrick!

Talk about world colliding! The Incredible Marco Pennette, writer of both "Golden Palace" and "Death Becomes Her" hangs out with Mother and Papa Cheesecake to talk all things Golden Girls, Golden Palace, and so much more! We are obsessed with Marko's career. He's written for shows like "Kate and Allie" and "Ubly Betty" and also created classic sitcoms like "Caroline In The City." We LOVED the opportunity to get to discuss "Golden Palace" for the very first time with him--and man oh man,, does he have some stories!
