Hey there, I'm Patrick Hines from the podcast True Crime Obsessed. And I'm Broadway's Jennifer Simard. Two-time Tony Award nominee girl. And we are so excited to tell you about our new podcast. It's called The Golden Girls Deep Dive Podcast. That's right. Starting with the pilot episode and going in order, each week we'll be recapping an episode of the most beloved sitcom of all time, The Golden Girls. And then
at the end of each episode, we'll give you a fully researched deep dive on something fascinating and or fabulous from the Golden Girls universe. Right? For example, did you ever wonder what happened to the actor who played Coco, the gay chef in the pilot? Because I did. Would you be surprised to learn that after a long and wide-ranging career, he died under very strange circumstances in an Oregon forest? That's right. And that's my deep dive for episode one.
It's true. I bet you also didn't know that Bea Arthur was a truck driver in the Marines before becoming a star. I didn't know that, but now I do. And you know what? It's perfect. And did you know that Rue McClanahan's real full name is Eddie Rue McClanahan? So she was accidentally drafted into the military right after she graduated high school. Get out of here. It's true. No, that's my Blanche impression. Get out of here.
And how about the fact that it was only after 30 years of mostly unpaid community theater acting gigs that Estelle Getty booked the role of Sophia? Well, these are the types of Golden Girls knowledge bombs you can expect each week. We have a full-time researcher on our team, so we are going deep. That's right. The researcher's name is Jess, and
His sole job on the show is to make sure that we are passing along every single story, piece of trivia, and hot gossip based in truth as we go episode by episode through you and your grandmother's favorite show, The Golden Girls. So grab your cheesecake and head on out to the Lanai as you subscribe to The Golden Girls Deep Dive podcast.
