To Wallow or Not To Wallow: S1 Ep17

This week, Alexis and Suzanne cover S1 Ep17, "Breakup: Part II." They are both tickled by the town's rallying behind Rory in the wake of her breakup with Dean, although also a little skeptical of the gossip chain in Stars Hollow. Where does it begin and where does it end? Suzanne reiterates her dislike of Tristan and lectures that nobody should give somebody a pass for the horrible things they've done just because they are sad and cute. Meanwhile, Alexis is touched by the foundational relationship between Rory and Lorelai. Suzanne posits once more that Sookie could be read as a representation of somebody on the autism spectrum, and appreciates the relationship dynamic between Sookie and Jackson. All around an enjoyable episode despite its title.  Send us your Gazebo Moment in a one minute voice recording or written email to [email protected] Join us on Instagram under the handle @talkingfastpodcast Rate, review, and subscribe wherever you listen and share us with your friends!
