What if Rory Gilmore had a podcast? Or Lorelai? Or even Taylor Doose? We’re diving deep into the whimsical world of Gilmore Girls and imagining what podcasts each beloved character would host—and how they’d actually monetize them. This episode is pure autumn nostalgia mixed with practical podcasting inspiration for creatives, entrepreneurs, and anyone obsessed with Stars Hollow.
I walk through 12 fictional podcast concepts, from Rory's literary deep dives to Sookie and Jackson's farm-to-table audio adventures. We’ll explore monetization strategies like affiliate links, sponsorships, premium content, merchandise, and live events—all grounded in realistic podcast business models. Plus, you’ll walk away with ideas you can use in your own podcast.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
