http://www.TheGodfatherPodcast.com presents.. Succession Vs. The Godfather! Take the Cannoli - The Godfather Podcast Welcome to Take the Cannoli: The Godfather Podcast… We’ve returned from our involuntary hiatus just in time for the premiere of the fourth and final season of the HBO drama, “Succession.” Obviously, the transition of power is the central theme of both The Godfather and HBO’s Succession, and while the legendary film and the modern day drama are five decades apart, both are textbook studies of power, loyalty, and the complicated dynamics of family relationships. Especially when the business is the family, and the family is the business! So in honor of the final season of Succession, which begins this week, and the 51st anniversary of the release of The Godfather (also this week), this special episode is going to take a look at the similarities and subtleties between Succession and The Godfather… Both stories can teach us much about the burden of power and the struggles and intricacies of passing the torch from one generation to another.

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.
