The Competition (Season 1, Episode 7)

WELCOME TO EPISODE 7 OF THE GOLDEN GIRLS DEEP DIVE PODCAST! Starting from the beginning of the show, each week we recap an episode of The Golden Girls and we end each episode with a fully researched deep dive into something from the Golden Girls universe!

Cheesecakes, it’s time for the annual bowling competition and we are all going to hold each other as we watch Rose become completely unhinged. Rose has a desperate need to win and is willing to throw anyone under the bus to do it. Shenanigans ensue when an old love of Sophia’s shows up and wants to take her back to Sicily for a visit.

For this week’s deep dive, Patrick is telling us all about the life and career of the creator of The Golden Girls, Susan Harris. Harris is a brilliant television pioneer who made it a priority to balance work and family life. AND she had a temper and may have thrown a stapler or two in meetings where things didn't go her way. And we say, right on, Susan!

Our episodes are researched by Jess McKillop, Patrick Hinds, and Jennifer Simard. Visit our website for a full list of sources. Follow us on Instagram and TikTok at @GoldenGirlsDeepDive
