Gilmore Friends Podcast
Carrie and Chemda have been friends for 15 years, have a ton in common, and can talk about any topic under the sun except one: Gilmore Girls.

Join Chemda as she introduces Carrie to the series, episode by episode. Will Carrie guess what’s going to happen next? Will Chemda find a new appreciation for the show? And when it’s all said and done, will they even remain friends?
