Love, Rose (Season 2, Episode 10)

WELCOME THE GOLDEN GIRLS DEEP DIVE PODCAST! Starting from the beginning of the show, each week we recap an episode of The Golden Girls. Along the way, we sprinkle in researched deep dives into something from the episode or The Golden Girls universe!
In Season 2 Episode 10, Rose… is going through a bit of a dry spell, and so decides to place an ad in the personals. Shenanigans ensue when nobody responds, so Blanche and Dorothy begin writing letters to Rose under the nom de plume Isaac Q. Newton. I mean, what could possibly go wrong? ALSO, SOPHIA HAS A STALKER AND NO ONE IS TALKING ABOUT IT!
CHEESECAKES! Come see Patrick on tour! CLICK HERE FOR TICKETS!
