The Heart Attack (Season 1, Episode 10)
WELCOME TO EPISODE 10 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!
The ladies have thrown a lavish and over the top dinner party while a major storm brews outside. Shenanigans ensue when Sophia starts to feel sick and the ladies think she may be having a heart attack. Unable to get Sophia to the hospital in the storm, the housemates are forced to care for her the best they can while they all ponder mortality. BUT THERE ARE ALSO LOTS OF VERY FUNNY JOKES!
For this week’s deep dive, Jenn is telling us all about the show’s legendary theme song–from its original incarnation through the version you hear on the show, up to a recent TikTok revival, this song has had quite the journey!
