  • Summary

  • Golden Girls Sports is a weekly podcast examining the many sports references and jokes in The Golden Girls, which aired on NBC from 1985-1992 and continues today in syndication. How many sports references are there? From zings about Mike Tyson and Tommy Lasorda, to episodes about coaching kids football teams and gambling addiction, there's enough to fill an entire podcast series. Trust me. Golden Girls Sports is written, produced and narrated by Dan Saraceni.

    For the final episode of Golden Girls Sports, we'll finish our section on dog racing by highlighting many of the moral and legal issues that threaten the sport's future. But we'll also take a deep dive into The Golden Palace, the show's largely forgotten final spin-off, and look at its genesis, its one season on the air and its lasting impact on those involved.

    To begin our two-part discussion about dog racing - a Florida favorite and one of the sports mentioned the most by the Golden Girls - we have to take a look at Coco, the ill-fated houseboy who appeared on the show's first episode and then never again. We'll also cover actors Charles Levin and Bridgette Andersen, dog racing's beginnings and rise in popularity, and the time Betty White tortured one of the show's crew members with talcum powder.

    Yes, the sports jokes I missed were enough to fill two episodes. I am ashamed. Here, we finally get a chance to talk about a horse racing legend, a couple of Olympic favorites and one endearing goofball that was a staple of 80's comedies. But first, we'll have to see what Joe has to say about it...
