“High Anxiety” March 25, 1989 We’re spending a little more time on the lanai and revisiting the Golden Girls, this time with friends of the show Rob Heintz and Kelly Hardy. In this weeks installment we see ever-cheerful Rose, played by America's Nan Betty White, finally lose her cool. Sophia (Estelle Getty) drops some pills down the sink and Rose isn’t worried about her glaucoma - she’s coming down man - and she needs a fix! Turns out sweet, naive, dumb as a box of rocks Rose has been hooked on pain pills since the silent film era. An old back problem got her hepped up on goofballs and she’s been chasing the dragon ever since. The ladies of the lanai decide to help Rose kick her habit by staying up all night to make sure she doesn’t use for at least 24 hours - cause that’s how rehab works apparently. When Rose slips back into her old habits (called it), she finally checks herself into rehab. Meanwhile, Dorothy (Bea Arthur) and Sophia get wrangled into starring in a local pizzeria commercial, but Dorothy stinks at acting and the pizza just plain stinks so bad Ma can’t even act like it tastes good and they both get canned. Rose comes home from rehab but the girls wonder if they ever really knew the real Rose Nylund. Does the ditzy blonde routine transcend addiction? Will Rose bore everyone with stories about when she was “using?” Can Dorothy and Ma ever show their faces in an authentic Italian restaurant ever again? As always, the answers to all these questions and more are answered in this weeks episode of Very Special Television!

Thank you for being a friend! Death, divorce, and diagnosis were running themes on The Golden Girls, and our girls Dorothy (Bea Arthur), Rose (Betty White), Blanche (Rue McClanahan), and Sophia (Estelle Getty) had their share of responses to grief in their lives. I'll answer listener questions, play clips from the show, and read a couple of excerpts from Jim Colucci's New York Times Bestselller: Golden Girls Forever: An Unauthorized Look Behind the Lanai.

The Golden Girls “Brother, Can You Spare That Jacket?” (3 December, 1988) The GGs win 10Gs on a scratcher! Sophia (Estelle Getty) gives a tattered jacket to charity not knowing the winning ticket is inside. A wild goose chase follows, the likes of which we’ve never seen. The jacket (and ticket) makes its way from an MJ concert to a charity auction and finally a homeless shelter where the girls are forced to make a tough decision. On this episode of A Very Special Podcast we sat idly by as the GGs decide to pickpocket the homeless, chat about splitting lottery winnings among friends and contemplate the sad reality of homelessness in America while delighting in tunes of the depression era - hilarity ensues.
