Girls Rewatch: Sex and the City

Dylan Carlino of spiritual sister podcast Feelin’ Girly joins us to discuss SATC S1E9, “The Turtle and the Hare.” Samantha has a full trauma-response to being rejected and Queer Eyes a baldie with bad breath, Charlotte enters vibrator psychosis and orgasms for probably the first time in her life, Miranda stages a Rabbit intervention, and Carrie considers a lavender marriage to Stanford. We discuss how the best party favor at a wedding is a tailored piece of relationship advice, Stanford’s timeless struggle as a gay without “the gay look,” the 30’s panic of relationship musical chairs, and how an ugly guy approaching you at a bar is better than a lazy hottie's DM. Time to get off the apps and into the wild! Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Claire Parker from the Vox Media podcast Good Noticings and stand-up special 32, returns to the pod to discuss SATC S1E8, “Three’s a Crowd.” Big is having a blast playing games with Carrie about his book publisher ex-wife, Charlotte flirts with the idea of a threesome IRL and in her dreams, Samantha sleeps with a married man while still being a girl’s girl, and Miranda laments how her friends won’t go down on her in therapy. We discuss the continued DUFF treatment of Miranda, why you should beware men that tell you how pretty you are when pitching a threesome, and how it’s 4th wave feminism to be both stupid and a genius.

Jo Firestone (of Broad City guest-star fame and author of upcoming sequel Sex on Murder Island) joins us to discuss SATC S1E7, “The Monogamists.” Carrie discovers she isn’t exclusive with Mr. Big and taunts him with Justin Theroux (pt. i,) Charlotte does her best to avoid giving head, Miranda and Skipper hook up in a black box theater sans-sheets, and Samantha is secretly poly in the real estate market. We give Jo a run-down of the sexual bases in North v. South Brooklyn, discuss the politics of being on your phone while inside someone, and reveal why you can’t afford to be loyal when apartment-hunting. Learn more about your ad choices.

We’re keeping it in the family for this monumental episode of SATC S1E6 “Secret Sex,” an allegory for the gay experience. Carrie goes on her date with Mr. Big in the tits-on-toast dress, Miranda does the ‘90s equivalent of going through your date's search history and finds a spanking fetish, Charlotte is, of course, being waspy and divulges about screwing a Hasidic folk artist, and Samantha is cool with it all. Find out why you should never mess with a cheese monger, the argument for bringing back brick-and-mortar dates, and why kicking someone in the face is a great way to break the ice. Justice for Libby!

Charlie Flynn is back for a third time to discuss Carrie’s unexpected $1000 pay-day, Miranda & Samantha’s debate on sex and power, and Charlotte’s nude modeling to seal an art deal in SATC Season 1 Episode 5, “The Power of Female Sex.” How has apple pay led to gay guy job erasure? Does shopping, in fact, release the creative spirit? Are all gallery girls secret freaks (Marnie, we’re looking at you…)? Find out on this episode, and go see Charlie Flynn’s ONE NIGHT ONLY hour at Union Hall on March 29th to see if he works his new bit into the show.

Ryan O’Connell, creator and star of the Netflix show SPECIAL whose third book (INSPIRATION PORN) releases this spring, joins us to discuss SATC Season 1, Episode 4 “Valley of the Twenty-Something Guys.” We discuss how Ryan could simply never relate to the notion of dating younger as Carrie and Samantha attempt in this episode, Charlotte’s true-to-form fear of becoming the “up the butt girl,” and the inevitability of a Mr. Big dating one of your friends.

​Sydnee Washington from the hit Big Money Player's iHeart Podcast, Mess, returns to Girls Rewatch Podcast for their new Sex and the City era. We discuss SATC Season 1, Episode 3 "Bay of Married Pigs", the episode where Carrie is invited to stay with a married friend and her husband, Peter, at their beach house. Her trip is unexpectedly cut short when she walks in on Peter who is Winnie-The-Pooh-ing in the hallway. Back in Manhattan, she contemplates whether there is a secret war going on between the singles and the married. Meanwhile, Miranda is gay-for-pay to get invited to her boss' dinner party and Samantha gets a little too wasted at the party full of couples. Sydnee gives all her hot takes on befriending your friends partners, how uncool the Hamptons is, and how marriage expectations really need to calm down. Learn more about your ad choices.

Tessa Belle returns to Girls Rewatch for a chaotic, thoughtful, and extremely necessary conversation about whether models should, in fact, be treated as people. We’re diving into Sex and the City Season 1, Episode 2, “Models and Mortals,” the show’s early takedown of the beauty industrial complex. Evan, Amelia, and Tessa unpack why SATC is somehow wildly woke and deeply problematic at the exact same time and why that tension is part of the magic that keeps us rewatching.

In the Sex and the City pilot (1998), Carrie Bradshaw dives headfirst into the question: can women really have sex like men? She navigates the NYC dating scene with her friends Samantha (always sex-positive), Charlotte (hopelessly romantic), and Miranda (delightfully cynical). This episode has it all — Carrie experimenting with “no-strings” sex with a guy named Kurt, the first of her fourth-wall-breaking monologues, and, of course, the unforgettable introduction of Mr. Big. Amelia and Evan recap every moment because it's time for gen z to weigh in. We're done talking girls, let's talk women. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In this episode, we break down Gilmore Girls and ask: how close is too close between a mother and daughter? Lorelai and Rory’s relationship often feels more like a friendship than a traditional parent-child dynamic but is that healthy for Rory’s development? We explore a popular Reddit theory that Rory may be Lorelai’s best friend, without that closeness being fully reciprocated.We also look at Lorelai’s long-term friendship with Sookie, a relationship that seems mainly positive but how compatible are the two of them as friends if we look up close? and how does Lorelai's obsession with Rory get in the way.... Then we turn to Rory and Lane, the quintessential hometown friendship. We ask whether Rory’s academic ambition makes her too busy or too self-involved to be a good friend, and whether her closeness with Lorelai limits her ability to form other meaningful relationships.
