Alrighty? So, Rory and Laurlai
1:03
have just been introduced to Charlotte, Emily
1:05
and Richard's house. Rory says, you
1:07
know, Charlotte's Web is one of my favorite books.
1:09
Lorla says, spiders talking to pigs.
1:12
What could be better than that? Charlott's
1:14
Webb is a children's book written by E. B. White
1:16
and is considered a classic. The book
1:19
was adapted into an animated feature
1:21
and a live action film, And did
1:23
you Know In Charlotte's web. In the live action movie,
1:25
there were forty seven Wilbers
1:28
on set because the piglets grew up
1:30
so fast.
1:31
You can you imagine
1:33
being the pig wrangler.
1:35
No, there's a lot of pigs.
1:37
That's a lot of piglets.
1:39
Lot.
1:41
Charlotte is explaining why she missed
1:43
the table manner session for
1:45
the summer Cotillion. Charlotte, I'm awfully sorry about
1:47
that, Missus Gilmore. My grandparents took me to
1:49
account Basie tribute at Tanglewood.
1:53
Count Basie was a jazz pianist,
1:57
organist, bandleader, and composer.
1:59
Nineteen thirty five, formed the Count Basie
2:01
Orchestra and performed with them for over fifty
2:04
years, at the very top.
2:06
The zenith of that business.
2:08
Did you know? Count Basie's most famous
2:10
collaborators included Frank Sinatra
2:12
and Tony Bennett. Bassi's
2:15
orchestra performed with Sinatra several
2:18
times. What
2:20
a man, what a time.
2:22
I think you should do the next one too, except your.
2:24
Alley really yeah, all
2:27
right too in a row. I mean
2:29
we're breaking president here I go. I will
2:31
need extra pay.
2:33
Just letting you know.
2:35
Rory is helping tutor at Paris's
2:38
sat Prep program. When the
2:40
timer goes off Paris, that's it pencils
2:42
down. That means you, Casanova, time is up everyone
2:45
else, unless your parents want to start paying
2:47
overtime, which for many of you might be a good
2:49
idea. A Jacomo Casanovo
2:52
was a Venetian who lived from seventeen
2:55
twenty five to seventeen ninety
2:57
eight. He was an adventure and author. He became known
2:59
as a ladies man. In his memoir,
3:01
he wrote that he made love to
3:04
one hundred and thirty two
3:06
women hardly, hardly
3:08
Wilt Chamberlain's standards. That's like Wilt
3:10
Chamberlain in one in a month.
3:12
I never knew his first name was Jakomo.
3:14
Though, Oh no, you know, I didn't
3:17
either. I thought it was Fred.
3:19
His memoir has been turned into many
3:22
film adaptations starring Heath
3:24
Ledger, Tony Curtis, Bob
3:27
Hope, Donald Sutherland. I think
3:29
that Donald Sutherland was Bob
3:31
Hope, Fellini Bob
3:33
Hope. Not to be right,
3:35
that's not, yeah,
3:38
it's not.
3:39
You would normally think God.
3:41
To Sully the great name of Bob Hope.
3:43
But yet, what Casanova? Did
3:49
you know that Casanova achieved celebrity
3:51
status by mingling with famous people
3:54
and making himself the subject of gossip.
3:57
He hobnobbed with Voltaire, Catherine
3:59
the Gray, and Benjamin
4:02
Franklin. Well, wow,
4:05
isn't he special
4:08
anyway? I think, Amy, it's this
4:10
one. Let's know, I want to do this one.
4:12
I was going to say this one is better for you
4:14
too.
4:15
It really truly is, because I've actually read
4:17
Henry Miller books. Rory
4:21
and Lane are in the library reading books
4:23
to help out with the recent problems pregnancy
4:25
and boys. Rory, well, it's supposed to be metaphorical
4:28
and evocative. It's Henry Miller, Lane.
4:31
Henry Miller has better stuff
4:33
than that. Believe me. This is
4:35
not why they banned his books.
4:37
Henry Miller was a writer who published several
4:39
semi autobiographical novels.
4:41
His work blended personal philosophy,
4:43
social critique, UH, and
4:46
candid depictions of s
4:49
X. His books were banned for decades
4:52
in the United States.
4:56
I remember in high school reading a book that has called
4:58
The Time of the Assassin. It was a book about Rombo.
5:01
I had never even heard of this guy until Gilmore
5:03
Girls.
5:04
Oh Henry Miller, really, oh wow?
5:07
The book Rory is reading is called sexist
5:10
The first volume is the
5:12
Rosie Crucifixion Trilogy. The
5:14
book is about Henry Miller's early sexual
5:17
escapades in Brooklyn. Did
5:19
you know Henry Miller had five wives?
5:22
Shocking? I was gonna say
5:25
shocker. I wasn't about
5:27
to read attended church
5:30
regularly. It was
5:32
going to be had five wives. Thank you very
5:34
much.
5:43
This was funny. Lourlai welcomes the young girls
5:46
to the inn to practice for cotillion. Is
5:48
the library ready for us, Emily says Lorlai.
5:51
Yes, the tables are set and the tea is brewed, and I have
5:53
hired some extra poor people for the girls to look
5:55
down on. Charlotte. She's the one
5:57
I told you about a regular. Immagene
5:59
Coka Michelle, Oh my god,
6:02
I love them. They're like Madame Alexander
6:04
dolls come to life.
6:05
So.
6:05
Immagene Coca was a comic actress,
6:08
best known for her role on Your Show of Shows with Sid
6:10
Caesar. She was nominated for five Emmy Awards
6:12
and won for Best Actress in nineteen fifty
6:14
one. But most people listening to this podcast
6:16
know are from one of two things. Her
6:19
role on The Brady Bunch, where
6:21
she was to look like
6:24
jan and I think Jan was kind
6:26
of like bent out of shape that in
6:29
earlier years she looked like Imogene
6:31
Coca and it's like, come on, Jan, and
6:34
she's Aunt Edna from vacation.
6:38
Who the dog Pete
6:40
on the sandwich?
6:41
She died.
6:42
They put her on top of the car.
6:44
Oh, that was Imagene Coca.
6:45
Yeah, these are classic imaging
6:48
Coca roles that we might know. Immagene
6:51
Coca survived a serious car accident in
6:53
nineteen seventy three with left her without
6:55
sight in her right eye. Now
6:57
we also can talk about Madame Alexander Dolls.
6:59
Madam Alexander Doll Company is a manufacturer
7:02
of collectible dolls founded by Beatrix
7:05
Alexander in nineteen twenty six. Madam
7:07
Alexander created the first doll based on a licensed
7:10
character, which was Scarlettlehair from the movie
7:12
Gone with the Wind and.
7:13
A nice fact that's a nice
7:16
factory tire. Europe
7:19
was the last one.
7:19
There weren't that many of this.
7:21
I feel like I have a theory on that they
7:23
bombarded us with so many weird
7:26
pop culture references, not weird, but
7:28
too many that it got weird.
7:30
In the one before that.
7:32
Somebody was like dialog a wow,
7:35
Also, this is truly one of
7:37
the big reasons why everything feels off,
7:40
because the pop culture references are I
7:42
don't know, maybe.
7:43
Really sure, they're mostly there's very
7:45
few, they're very historical, and
7:47
I think it's because, like you know how you said
7:49
you get notes. I bet you someone gave a note
7:51
like too many and then they just did
7:53
nothing.
7:54
I wonder also, did you notice in so far
7:56
the first three episodes, there's a lot of food
7:59
talk, like more than pop culture.
8:02
Maybe it's like a crutch they're like when in
8:04
doubt talk about food or pop culture.
8:06
Yeah, like PP and J pop tarts, like we're just gonna
8:08
throw like sandwiches. Like there's
8:11
there was a lot of food talk.
8:12
Hmmm, that's interesting.
8:14
So Charlotte is introducing Lorelei to her
8:16
grandparents. Arthur says, oh, the famous
8:19
Laura I. Lorale says famous.
8:21
I have to catch up on my US weeklies. Arthur
8:24
says, Charlotte told us you were a card. Beverly
8:26
says, she also told us that you were a delightful
8:29
dining companion, like Noel
8:31
Coward and Slim Keith rolled into
8:33
one. Lorlai says, oh, well,
8:35
she's delightful too, like Shirley Temple
8:37
and Mother Teresa and someone with very
8:40
good table manners rolled into one. Noel
8:43
Coward was a playwright, director, an actor
8:45
known for his wit and flamboyance. Slim
8:48
Keith was an American socialite and fashion
8:50
icon of the fifties and sixties. Slim
8:53
also is featured as one of the Swans in
8:55
the current Ryan Murphy show Feud
8:58
Capodi Versus the Ones, and
9:01
Slim is portrayed by Diane Lane
9:03
in the series. Shirley Temple
9:05
is an American actress, singer, dancer, and diplomat
9:08
who is the Hollywood who was Hollywood's
9:11
number one box office draw as a child's.
9:13
Access She went on to be an ambassador to
9:15
something.
9:16
Yep, and I still to this day ordered
9:18
Shirley Temples. And did you know the Shirley Temple
9:21
drink was created when she was
9:23
out at a restaurant and needed something non alcoholic
9:26
to drink.
9:28
That's famous.
9:30
Oh yeah, she was whining over her parents
9:32
sipping old fashioned drinks, which
9:34
also come with a signature Marashina
9:36
cherry.
9:37
Oh yeah the best.
9:38
So the waiter created
9:40
a version for her. Yeah and so, and
9:42
every kid loves a Marashino cherry
9:45
mm hmmm, so
9:48
that's interesting. My theory on the pop culture
9:50
is too much now
9:52
too little, Just
9:55
like Goldilocks, I
9:57
can't quite get it right.
9:58
There's only six I know.
10:00
It's really light,
10:02
but last time was so crazy.
10:06
So you think week by week they're like, all right, I don't know.
10:08
They're trying to find their way. I think that's what they're
10:10
trying to find their way and maybe next week will
10:12
be so wonderful and s marvelous.
10:16
All right, kids, that's going to wrap
10:18
it up for this very lengthy marathon
10:21
episode of pop culture. We will see you next time.
10:23
Best fans on the planet, keep download and keep sending
10:26

10:28
the best.
