Summary

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 3 Episode 1, Sophia makes a new friend while the other gals are home gathering donations for a charity sale. Shenanigans ensue when Blanche accidentally gives Rose's cherished teddy bear to a ruthless Sunshine Cadet, who... doesn't want to give it back without a fight. Or at least money.

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
