QUOTES
- “A podcast is not just you picking up your phone and recording something on Zoom and taking that raw crappy file from Zoom and just uploading it to the internet. That is not a podcast. A podcast is an audio file by definition, an audio file that's uploaded to the internet to be consumed auditorily.”
- “There's a lot of things we can figure out on our own, but there's also a lot of things that we can get off our plate and make just that much easier. So number one reason you don't want to start a podcast on your own, is it's a complete time suck.”
- “And that's the problem. If you're not putting something that's of quality out to the world, why even do it in the first place?”

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.
