"We Couldn't Help But Wonder" what would happen if these two went on an episode by episode journey through the whole series.

Elise and Mike take a look back at season tow of And Just Like That... and try to keep it light (There were a few moments that still don't make a ton of sense). They share moments they can't stop thinking about, quotes they want made into greeting cards and t-shirts, and hopes for season three. Enjoy, and we'll be back in 2025! (!)
As the second season of And Just Like That comes to an end, we finally get that Samantha cameo we've been hearing about! Also, some closure for Miranda and Steve, Charlotte standing up for herself (without even getting out of bed), Che in transition, Anthony opening up (sorry, couldn't help it), Nya running into a stranger from her past, LTW dealing with the end of her pregnancy, and Seema facing the fear of getting what she's wanted. Plus, things between Carrie and Aidan come to an unexpected turn. And it all seems to happen in a... (snap)
Carrie and Aidan visit Steve at his new venture. Meanwhile, Lisa worries she won't be able to finish her project, Miranda makes the choice to see Che's latest stand up, Charlotte celebrates with her new coworkers after slaaaaaayyyyying it at work, Nya gets a message from her ex, and as Carrie moves closer towards moving into her new place, trouble is brewing.
Carrie makes a choice involving her apartment, and meets up with an old co-worker of Miranda's (not really). Miranda's solution to motivating Brady may have had unintended consequences. Anthony thinks he has to end things with Giuseppe, Seema is less than convinced about her burgeoning relationship with Ravi, and Harry is throwing a meet and greet for Herbert and a constantly sleep deprived Lisa.
Carrie and Aiden are back together, and she has a proposition for Che, and a stunning question for Miranda. Meanwhile, Miranda is getting used to being an intern, and Charlotte is getting ready to go back to the gallery. Also, Seema has some concerns of her own.
Elise and Mike are back to begin the journey through the second half of season two. Right up front, Mike wants you to know he has some issues. Charlotte is working to further Rock's modeling career, Nya is staring down her first post separation Valentine's Day with a good attitude, and appetite, Miranda is getting herself back out in the dating scene, and Carrie has a very special Valentine's date with an old flame. That's right. Aiden is back. And it doesn't go as expected.
Along with a new episode of We Couldn't Help But Wonder, Elise and Mike share part one of their conversation about the Cher/Nicholas Cage classic, Moonstruck. Written by John Patrick Shanley, and directed by Norman Jewison, this 1987 multiple award winning film brings together an amazing cast of mostly New York based actors to tell a story of love, passion, fate, and the opera. That's Amore!
As Mike and Elise wait to be able to talk about the rest of the second season of And Just Like That... they're back with a quick spoiler free episode about their recent experience going on the New York City Sex and the City bus tour! If you can't tell by Mike's nervous giggle right at the very beginning, he was somewhat uncertain about the experience. Turns out, it was a blast, and both Mike and Elise experienced things they hadn't before. Hope you all enjoy.
1Carrie is speaking at a convention, Charlotte tries to support Lily, even through her and Harry's discomfort, Miranda has more than one uncomfortable conversation that needs to be had, Nya is working on her divorce papers, Lisa is being honored by MoMA, Seema has a proposal in store, and Che simply needs to leave the apartment. Also, winter is coming...
In other news, Mike and Elise have an announcement to make at the end of the podcast as they do their best to honor the WGA and SAG. Union strong!
Carrie stands in the bike lane, Nya has a one night stand, Miranda finds a new place to sleep, Charlotte gets to relive her teen model days vicariously, Seema finds out she can still be surprised, Che gets some bad feedback, and LTW refuses to be Comptrolled. Happy Hu...err...Halloween!
Carrie gets a text from a man she doesn't know, and an invitation from a woman she knows all too well. Meanwhile, Che and Miranda are back in New York City, and are navigating new relationship territory, LTW and Herbert struggle to "have it all" as a very important date approaches, with the kids away, Charlotte and Harry face an unusual diagnoses, and Seema has her bag stolen. That's MY Birkin!
Carrie is recording the audiobook for her newest memoir, and it's bringing up all the greif she thought she'd put behind her. Miranda is alarmed by a call from Brady and causes drama on the set of Che's taping. Nya discovers she may in fact be ready to get out there again. Charlotte and LTW are after a newly circulated list...and Elise hates everything about it. Plus several drop-ins from cast members we haven't seen since season one. Lisette!
Elise and Mike are sharing an episode of their other podcast with We Couldn't Help But Wonder listeners. On that podcast they recap and comment on romantic comedies set in New York City and do so with the same detail and humor that they've brought to over one hundred episodes regarding Sex and the City, both SATC movies, and And Just Like That...
in this episode they talk about You've Got Mail. It only covers about the first fourth of the movie, so no real spoilers here.
They very much hope you enjoy this special treat, and will be back Sunday with Chapter Three.
Carrie and Franklyn get a very specific writing assignment, Charlotte goes on a mission to retrieve Lily's consigned clothes, Miranda discovers even more of what she doesn't know about Che, while Che deals with another change to the show they thought they were making, Nya finds out how much Andre hasn't listened to her, Herbert and Lisa deal with a visit from Eunice, and Seema questions her instincts after a visit to the salon.
Carrie is wondering if she can avoid taking her new relationship any further than it already is. Charlotte and Lisa have stuff to say about their supportive husbands. Miranda worries that Che is pulling away. Seema is meeting the son and the ex-wife. Nya is navigating life with an estranged husband on tour. And Anthony would just like to know whether or not he's going to the Met Gala...err...Ball. Speaking of which, maybe get those costumes set a few, I don't know, hours in advance.
Elise and Mike are back to break it all down, and they have a brand new podcast to announce.
Elise and Mike are back for one more mini episode before season two of And Just Like That... begins. Only, it's not so mini, because in addition to Elise sharing her adventures at the Sex and the City Experience, the two of them discussing a new interview between creator and leading ladies, and Kim Cattrall's new series, they are finally announcing the new project they've been working on, and they have a sneak peak! (Listen?) So much is happening! Enjoy...

I absolutely love this podcast! Great humor, pleasant voices and a real ney yorkers' perspective!
I'm listening to this almost two years after you posted this. Just wanted to point out that when Carrie says "No, you didn't!" it was the second time she used that phrase. The first time was during the first season when she was talking to Stanford about the online chat rooms.
A very fun podcast. I love all the details they pick out in the show. Hearing how someone has experienced watching satc for the first time is a cool slant too.
