Welcome to Bada Bing and the City, an ongoing series where we’re discussing the uncanny connections between two beloved HBO classics: Sex and the City and The Sopranos. Consider it a podcast within a podcast. How meta of us.
This week, we look at both shows and those three little letters: the D, the E, and the I — aka diversity, equity, and inclusion. What does Tony and the gang have to say about race versus the extremely white women of SATC, and subsequent overcorrection in And Just Like That…? Is Tony’s greatest fear not being caught by the feds, but his daughter doing interracial dating? Is it anti-Italian discrimination if the word “mafia” is actually Arabic?? Meth is our love language. “Gowns, beautiful gowns.”
