Summary

WELCOME TO 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 this Season 3, Episode 22, Rose has a new boyfriend, Al, who just wants SIT DOWN FOR A GOSH-DARN MINUTE after retiring. But like the title of the episode suggests, Rose convinces Al to get right back up off his duff and take her out adventuring. Meanwhile, shenanigans ensue back home as Sophia brings in a very suspicious new contractor to help Blanche and Dorothy renovate the garage. Will there finally be enough bedrooms in the house to accommodate houseguests without bunking in together?!

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
