Girls Rewatch: Sex and the City

Dana Donnelly of Midnight Milkshake Podcast and writer/ director of The Prospect puts on her anthropologist hat to discuss SATC S1E10, “The Baby Shower.”

Our four ladies take a road trip to suburban Connecticut for ex-party girl Laney’s baby shower and bravely confront the idea of motherhood. 

Samantha heats up her old slut rivalry with Laney and delivers her most iconic line (“you bitch!”) Charlotte laments her stolen baby name and 90s-style deletes her Pinterest board, Carrie misses her period and contemplates motherhood from a journalistic perspective, and Miranda shares a familial moment with Carrie in the condom aisle at the drug store. 

We discuss how having a secure sense of identity can make you a better slut and mother, why being a goofy gal means you have the most natural sexual energy, the argument for throwing more events that celebrate not having a baby, and why Carrie should never open Excel.

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!

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.

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!
