Eli Rallo Didn’t Know We Needed Her Lore...

Tara Llewellyn & Haley McIntosh
About this episode

After joining us on stage in New York for our first live show back in October, podcaster and content creator Eli Rallo is finally on-pod with us to talk about her book, her relationship with Gilmore Girls, and her hot takes on our two favorite girlies. Which chapter of her “I Didn’t Know I Needed This” could Rory Gilmore have used growing up? Is there a chapter for Lorelai? And speaking of Lorelai, was she a selfish friend, daughter, and possibly even a selfish mother? Grab an extra strong cup of coffee for these extra strong opinions because with Eli on the mic, Tara and Haley have more to say.

As always, if you have more to say, call in with your thoughts at 860-578-4653. We love hearing from you!

And be sure to join our Patreon for our spoiler-FULL rewatch, Gilmore Revisited as we wrap up Season 4!

Now you can watch the girlies every week by subscribing to us on YouTube!
