Gail Rudnick is the sharp, witty, and refreshingly unfiltered co-host of Excuse My Grandma.

On the podcast, Gail shares old-school wisdom, blunt relationship advice, and hilarious generational takes alongside her granddaughter, Kim Murstein. With her no-nonsense approach to dating and life, Grandma Gail has become an internet sensation and a beloved voice for both younger and older audiences, proving that classic values and modern realities can coexist — just with a little tough love.

A lifelong New Yorker and Palm Beach snowbird, Gail grew up in an era of formal courtships, set-ups by family friends, and a dating culture where clarity and commitment were the norm. After meeting her husband, Poppy, at 21 years old and getting married within six months, she built a life centered around family, tradition, and timeless relationship values—values that she now debates with Kim in their viral content.

Since the launch of Excuse My Grandma, Grandma Gail has become the internet’s grandmother, offering her straightforward takes on everything from modern dating trends to fashion to social etiquette. Her sharp humor, iconic one-liners, and signature style have made her a standout personality across TikTok, Instagram, and podcast platforms, where she engages with a devoted multi-generational audience.

Beyond entertainment, Grandma Gail has embraced her role as a media personality and brand collaborator, working with major companies like Amazon, L’Oréal, Estée Lauder, Old Navy, Microsoft, and Dove. As Excuse My Grandma expands into publishing, television, and live events, Grandma Gail continues to prove that wisdom (and style) never go out of fashion.
