What links Bridget Jones to social media regulation?The answer: Baroness Beeban Kidron. In 2004 she directed the Bridget Jones sequal. 20 years later, she became one of the most vocal campaigners for regulation of social media and tech in the UK.She joins Nick in the Political Thinking studio to tell her story, from joining Marxist dinner parties in her childhood home, to filming and living with the protesters of Greenham Common in the 1980s.Today, she has strong words for Keir Starmer's government, and is pushing for law-changes from her seat in the House of Lords.Producers: Daniel Kraemer and Flora Murray Editor: Giles Edwards

Of course, we also discuss the romantic relationships seen in the movie as well as the societal factors that exacerbate Bridget's self-esteem.

RHLSTP Book Club #167 - Life is Rosi - Rich chats to impressionist and actor Jess Robinson about her terrific debut book, (which she describes as Anne Frank meets Bridget Jones), Life is Rosi, an ambitious true story combining the diaries of 20 something Jess with the diaries of her grandmother, Rosi. They discuss the slightly forgotten first stages of the Holocaust where Polish Jews were expelled from Germany in 1938 and how Rosi's positivity helped her to survive this turbulent period, also the echoes of history that resonate for Jewish people now (even those who are not deemed Jewish enough by Jewish dating services). Plus the similarities and differences between these two young women, the unpleasant things that a hopeful though naive Jess had to endure on her own journey (but how all of us were susceptible to creeps in our younger years), how writing about experiences that we're uncomfortable about can help others (and ourselves), why Jess wanted to apply for citizenship of a country that had treated her grandmother so badly, the universality of family and how we often fail to learn the lessons of history. Plus the huge technical achievement of combining all these stories and managing to find the humour in it all.Buy the book here - https://uk.bookshop.org/p/books/rosi-jess-robinson/7840560SUPPORT THE SHOW!See details of the RHLSTP LIVE DATES Watch our TWITCH CHANNELBecome a badger and see extra content at our WEBSITE Buy DVDs and books from GO FASTER STRIPE Hosted on Acast.

This content was originally released on 02/20/21 Hey y'all,   We're back, for real this time! We recorded this episode [in January of 2021] with friend-of-the-show and costume expert Emma Fraser, who, by virtue of her whole lived life, is actually qualified to weigh in on the quality of Renee Zellweger's accent. It's a gem. Next up: Pride & Prejudice & Zombies & Matt Smith Jumping Really High When He Dances. Next episode coming at you fast, since we're playing catch-up.   Lots of love, Julie, Allison, and Janine

1. Best Coaching Advice You've GottenAsk more questions instead of charging in with solutions.Slow down the instinct to “fix”—curiosity beats expertise.Socialize ideas rather than bulldozing with brilliance.2. What Are You Still Trying to Improve?Reducing compound questions (her version of the coaching filibuster).Releasing the impulse to control the conversation.Allowing clients to answer imperfectly without “rescuing” them.3. Most Outrageous Thing You've Done in a SessionDeploying the wildcard question: “What am I not asking you that I should be?”Admitting out loud when a session feels stuck.Handing responsibility back to the client instead of forcing an insight.4. What Still Makes You Uncomfortable?Knowing when to interrupt clients who go on context marathons.Managing the tension between venting and progress.Timing the interruption like Double Dutch: jump too early and you break an ankle.5. Advice for Someone Considering CoachingGive yourself to the infinite, unpredictable paths a conversation can take.Let go of steering, engineering, and controlling outcomes.Trust the process even when it feels like you're floating in space without gravity.6. Something You've Had to ConquerEgo. Full stop.The belief that being the smartest person in the room is the job (it isn't).Breaking lifelong habits formed as a lawyer and high achiever.7. How Are You Using AI in Your Coaching Practice?Barely—AI helps run the business, not the coaching room.Protecting the human heart of coaching is a priority.Belief that if you show up like a robot, you're easier to replace by one.8. What Have You Learned About Yourself Through Coaching?She's a lifelong learner who never wants to stop honing her craft.Coaching opened an entire new intellectual landscape she wants to master.Minimalism and presence are more powerful than frameworks and prep.Fun Stuff Question(Bridget Jones, blue crabs, Severance, and a reality-TV confession.)Favorite movie: Bridget Jones's Diary (and she knows you're judging her).Favorite meal: backyard Maryland crab feasts—an entire family ritual, not a menu item.Favorite show: Severance, plus a guilty-pleasure detour into Love Is Blind. 

This content was originally released on 01/13/21 Hey y'all, Here's part three of our Bridget Jones's Diary extravaganza! At the end of this episode, you'll hear us say that our next episode is Pride & Prejudice & Zombies, but SIKE it's actually a BJD costumes episode. After that, though! Zombies! They're coming to get you, Barbara!  Many thanks to the great Caroline Siede, our guest for this episode. We think it's one of our best, and that's no coincidence—it's because Caroline is very, very good at her job.   You can read her excellent column on BJD, the first in her series When Romance Met Comedy, over at The A.V. Club.

This content was originally released on 01/06/21 Hey y'all,   Here's part two of our Bridget Jones's Diary extravaganza, The One In Which We Talk About Emergency Fuck Protocols. This is a good movie! We liked talking about it so much that there are two more proper episodes still to come, plus a bonus episode; it is many thousands of words and only about a quarter of them are "fuck."  We hope you had a wonderful holiday/December, and that you're being kind to yourselves and using proper breath support whilst belting in your living rooms.    Lots of love, Julie, Allison, and Janine

Not so much a rewrite as an appreciation of this 25-year-old classic in general and of Daniel Cleaver as played by Hugh Grant in particular. Bridget Jones's Diary Year: 2001 Screenplay by: Helen Fielding, Andrew Davies, Richard Curtis Based on the novel by: Helen Fielding Directed by: Sharon Maguire Stars: Renée Zellweger, Colin Firth, Hugh Grant Show notes: CN: discussion of fatphobia and diet culture; derogatory language   If you would like to skip the plot summary for this month's film you can spool forward about 12 and a half  minutes into the episode.   In this episode we mention the films: Notting Hill* (1999) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0125439/) Paddington 2 (2017) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4468740/) Love Actually (2003) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0314331/)   And the TV series: Pride and Prejudice (1995) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0112130/)   And the books: Bridget Jones's Diary by Helen Fielding (1996) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridget_Jones%27s_Diary_(novel)) Sex & The City by Candace Bushnell (1996) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sex_and_the_City_(newspaper_column)) Tales of the City by Armistead Maupin (1978) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tales_of_the_City_(novel)) The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole, Aged 13 3/4 by Sue Townsend (1982) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Secret_Diary_of_Adrian_Mole,_Aged_13%C2%BE) Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen (1813) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pride_and_Prejudice) Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason by Helen Fielding (1999) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bridget_Jones:_The_Edge_of_Reason_(novel)) Persuasion by Jane Austen (1817) (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persuasion_(novel))   *Films marked with an asterisk have previously been featured on the podcast.   You can watch the shower sketch from Eddie Izzard's Glorious tour (1997) here: https://youtu.be/0Zfsn82MF3E?si=uhKVM3t9YtR8PKSQ   NB: In this episode, we refer to events from both the first and the second books in the Bridget Jones canon - Bridget Jones's Diary (1996) and Bridget Jones: The Edge of Reason (1999)   The passage from the (first) book that Charles Adrian was trying to find is right at the beginning - Sunday 1 January: "It struck me as pretty ridiculous to be called Mr Darcy and to stand on your own looking snooty at a party. It's like being called Heathcliff and insisting on spending the entire evening in the garden, shouting 'Cathy' and banging your head against a tree."    Comic Relief, mentioned in passing at the beginning of this episode, is a British charity co-founded in 1986 by Richard Curtis and Sir Lenny Henry (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comic_Relief).    If you would like to suggest films for future episodes, you can tweet Lisa: @LisaStowaway.   We record these episodes over the internet.

Hey! Part III of our Christmas Series looks at another classic from the early 2000s: Love Actually. It's from the writer/director of Four Weddings and a Funeral, Notting Hill, and Bridget Jones, so you kinda know what to expect. It's somehow narratively ambitious and cliched. Sean and I have diverging opinions.To pair, we enjoy some delicious Spanish Albariño.

Andy Peth's 5-Star Movie Review returns in Hour 1 of https://RushToReason.com, and this week's lineup is sharply divided. Did Five Nights at Freddy's 2 really earn a jaw-dropping 0.5 star for Quality, while landing at 3.0 for Political and 3.0 for Moral? What went so wrong… and what does Andy say still “works” (if anything)? Then the tone shifts with Fackham Hall, pulling a much stronger 3.0 for Quality and 3.0 for Political—but only 1.0 for Moral. Is it clever satire, a guilty laugh, or a hard pass, depending on what you're okay with? Don't miss Andy's brutally honest breakdowns—tune in to get clarity on what's worth your time and what to skip. Listen now for the clear answers you want. HOUR 2 Hour 2 of Rush To Reason shifts gears with a double feature you won't want to miss. First up, Andy and Richard break down this weekend's NFL matchups, making their picks and explaining which teams have the edge—and which favorites might be walking into a trap. Are there any upsets brewing? And which games are must-watch if you care about momentum heading deeper into the season? Then the conversation takes a sharp turn across the Atlantic with a movie-review theme centered on films featuring British characters. From high-octane spy thrillers like Kingsman: The Secret Service and The Gentlemen, to prestige dramas such as The King's Speech and The Imitation Game, the discussion spans action, history, wit, and classic British charm. They even touch on beloved favorites like Harry Potter, Notting Hill, and Bridget Jones's Diary—but with the kind of commentary only John, Andy, and Richard can deliver. If you enjoy smart sports takes, lively debate, and movie conversations that go beyond surface-level reviews, this hour blends all of it into one fast-moving, entertaining listen.

Why isn't this film called Love Sleeping? Or Love You Were Sleeping? Or Actually, Love, Were You Sleeping? Or Do You Actually Love Sleeping? Or some other combination of the films Love Actually and WHILE YOU WERE SLEEPING!? Love Hard Year: 2021 Written by: Daniel Mackey and Rebecca Ewing Directed by: Hernán Jiménez Stars: Nina Dobrev, Jimmy O. Yang, Darren Barnet Show notes: This film wants to exist at the place where Love Actually meets Die Hard but the story of a woman who falls for a guy she knows nothing about beyond how he looks makes us think of a different film entirely. There is some good stuff here, some less good stuff and one or two elephants in the room - the biggest and noisiest elephant being: why does this film reference While You Were Sleeping so much and NEVER ONCE ACKNOWLEDGE THE FACT??? If you would like to skip the plot summary for this month's film you can spool forward about eleven minutes into the episode. In this episode we mention the films: To All The Boys I've Loved Before* (2018) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3846674/)  Always Be My Maybe* (2019) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt7374948/) Love Actually (2003) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0314331/) Die Hard (1998) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0095016/) While You Were Sleeping* (1995) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0114924/) Home Alone (1990) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0099785/) Single All The Way* (2021) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt14315756/) And the TV series: Catfish: The TV Show (2012- ) (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2498968/) *Films marked with an asterisk have previously been featured on the podcast.

'Ugly' is a subjective term, of course. Tastes vary and opinions are heavily influenced by how we perceive someone or how much we like them. However, there are plenty of characters in speculative fiction who even on the page do not fit the parameters of being conventionally physically attractive. When those books are translated to the screen, often the 'it' actors of the moment are cast in these roles because they are often great characters. And this is where the cognitive dissonance sets in. Social media and the drive towards a physical ideal which can only be attained through wealth and extreme intervention adds another, somewhat more troubling dimension as platforms like Instagram directly influence beauty standards and celebrity popularity. Have we lost the ability to see a normal human as attractive? Find out in this week's episode. On the slab this week - Bridget Jones' Diary, Harker & Blackthorn, Game of Thrones, Howl's Moving Castle and many more.   Title music: Ecstasy by Smiling Cynic

Milwaukee Film's annual “Season's Screenings” holiday movie series just got underway this week, and if you're listening to this episode on its release date, that means you've only missed one of the 22 selections that will run at the Oriental Theatre between now and Jan. 1 (if you really love The Holiday, you can always fork over $3.99 to stream it). With our resident Milwaukee Film-ite Kpolly, it seemed silly not to use this opportunity to dig into the topic of holiday movies. It won't surprise you to learn that both of our hosts find this part of the calendar cinematically delightful. It's kind of hard to argue with them, considering how un-genre-specific these movies are. Traditionalist? You've got White Christmas and It's a Wonderful Life. Romantic? Bridget Jones' Diary and When Harry Met Sally. Holiday hater? Krampus and Christmas Evil. Prefer straight-ahead comedies? Planes, Trains and Automobiles and Scrooged.Speaking of the Bill Murray-starring take on A Christmas Carol, only one entry in this year's “Season's Screenings” has an interactive element, and it happens Dec. 11 with what we're calling “Scrooged with Cinebuds Live”! Because we believe in delivering on things promised in titles, everyone in attendance at the Oriental Theatre will enjoy a screening of the movie and a live taping of Cinebuds immediately following.So if you've ever fancied the idea of hearing your voice on the podcast, this is your big chance. We'll even sweeten the deal by knocking $3 off your ticket, since you're clearly a devoted Cinebuds fan if you've gotten this far down the page. Just enter the code “SCROOGED” when you check out on the Milwaukee Film website, and you'll see the discount applied.#####Cinebuds is sponsored by Joe Wilde Garage Door Company.

(Airdate: 11.19.25) In today's episode, we're stepping onto the sparkly dance floor as Dancing With the Stars shakes up its Season 34 finale with a brand-new, three-round format that has judges ripping shirts, contestants hitting perfect scores, and fans bracing for the wildest finale yet. Then, we unpack Ariana Grande's surprising announcement: after her short 2026 Eternal Sunshine tour, she's hitting pause on life on the road — maybe for a very, very long time. And finally, Bridget Jones gets immortalized in her most iconic form as London unveils a statue honoring everyone's favorite delightfully messy heroine. Yes, granny panties have reached cultural landmark status. It's the news you don't need… but you absolutely want. Voted 6th Best Entertainment News Podcast! Because being #5 is soooo overrated.

Happy Tuesday, Everyone! I can't believe it's taken this long, but this week I am finally talking to my friend and Battlestar legend James Callis! On Battlestar, James played Dr. Gaius Baltar. He is also known for playing best friend Tom in the Bridget Jones' Diary movies, as well as appearances in Star Trek: Picard, 12 Monkeys, Arrow and most recently as Claude Whelan in Slow Horses. James was an intimidating person for me to interview — he's so smart about acting (and about everything else) and he plays a really good bad guy— but in this conversation, you get to see his goofy side and his tender side too. James is an incredible dad and I loved getting to talk to him about how fatherhood helps him keep the nonsense of life on set in perspective. He has also worked with some of the greatest actors of all time and we discuss what traits Gary Oldman, Kristin Scott Thomas, Peter O'Toole and Omar Sharif all have in common. I thoroughly enjoyed this conversation and I'm so happy I got to see James in person! Enjoy the episode and check out our Patreon for an extended hindsight where my producer Jeph and I discuss James and all things Battlestar in more detail.

I denne uge skal vi tale om et album, der er på alles læber. For med ‘West End Girl’ har den britiske sangerinde Lily Allen begået både mord på sin eksmand og harakiri ved højlys dag. Begivenhederne i sangene matcher fuldkommen begivenhederne i sangerindens eget liv, og derfor bliver det uundgåeligt et sensationelt og nærmest autofiktivt album. Sådan har det været, siden hun for næsten tyve år siden fik sit gennembrud med musikkens svar på Bridget Jones’ dagbog, nemlig albummet ‘Alright, Still’ fra 2006. Et portræt af at være ung, fuld og forvirret i London. Nu er Lily Allen 40 år, ædru – og stadigvæk forvirret. Man kan muligvis opleve sangene som klagesange og selvoffergørelse, hvis man ikke hører ordentligt efter. For offeret er ikke kun hendes Hollywood-eksmand, skuespilleren David Harbour, der er den spekulative genstand for konflikterne i sangene, som tilsammen udgør en helstøbt musikalsk fortælling.’ West End Girl’ er i lige så høj grad et værk om en kvindes selvbedrag – om at lade sig narre af sin egen ihærdighed efter ikke at blive forladt. Vi gennemgår alle sangene på albummet og taler om alt fra Lily Allens humor og kløgtige anti-klogskab til at blive hjemsøgt af Architectural Digest og de britiske tabloidmedier. PANEL Bodil Skovgaard Nielsen, kulturjournalist på Dagbladet Information. Anbefaling: Lyt til podcasten ’The Retrievals’ fra New York Times. Pernille Jensen, musikanmelder på Politiken.

In 1995, a single 30-something woman with big knickers and blue soup first appeared in a weekly column, published by British newspaper The Independent.Initially written anonymously by journalist Helen Fielding, Bridget Jones quickly became a cultural icon, as she tried to make sense of life and love.The book, Bridget Jones's Diary, became a best-seller in 1996 and the character has gone on to feature in three more books and four films. Although, some people don't agree with Bridget's obsession with her size and men, her relatability is a hit with many. Bridget's creator Helen Fielding looks back, with Megan Jones, at how one column, published 30 years ago, turned into a cultural phenomenon. Clips featured in the programme are from the film, Bridget Jones's Diary. The production companies behind it were Working Title Films, Universal Pictures, Miramax and StudioCanal.

Description: As a former TV producer turned novelist, Sophie Cousens' books have been published in over 20 languages. Her previous novels—including This Time Next Year and Before I Do—have delighted readers around the world with their warmth, humor, and honest portrayal of love in all its messy, beautiful forms. Today, we sit down with Sophie to discuss her decade of experience producing some of our favorite TV shows like The Graham Norton Show and Big Brother and how that valuable experience behind the scenes in television shaped the way she now tells stories as a novelist, allowing her to thread the needle between heartfelt and funny, heartwarming and satirical. We talk about her approach to writing—does she prefer to start with a character or a plot?--as well as how she brilliantly employs a variety of  familiar rom-com setups (friends-to-lovers, missed connections, etc.) yet, they never feel overt or cliché. If you've ever tried to date post-divorce, juggled motherhood with figuring out who the heck you even are anymore, or questioned whether love in your 40s is even worth it—you're going to enjoy today's conversation about our June JHBC selection, Is She Really Going Out With Him?  With nods to fairy tales, dating apps, and the iconic Joe Jackson song that inspired the title, the book asks: how do you start over when you're not 22 anymore—and how do you know when it's real? Thought-provoking Quotes: “I've been a producer on shows that were much more produced—you've got a script, you've got a plan, you know exactly what you're getting; whereas with [Big Brother] we were just dealing with real people and real people's emotions and the experience of being in this slight madhouse.” – Sophie Cousens “Tropes are enduring because they are beloved. Sometimes, that word has a negative connotation but, in this case, it's not true. These are story tropes that readers love. I love how you talk about them and go, no, I'm not going to steer away from them or try to reinvent them or try to avoid them. I'm going to go full-in.” – Jen Hatmaker “I absolutely love films of that 90s and 2000s era. That's very much the tone in which I write. I think there's something pure and simple about that era of films, which is why so many of them are enduring.” – Sophie Cousens Resources Mentioned in This Episode: Russel Howard's Good News - https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b00phwkz The Graham Norton Show - https://www.bbc.co.uk/programmes/b006xnzc Big Brother - https://www.cbs.com/shows/big_brother/ Notting Hill (1999) - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0125439/ Bridget Jones's Diary by Helen Fielding - https://amzn.to/4dJsJ6y Just Haven't Met You Yet by Sophie Cousens - https://amzn.to/45IC4tt And Then There Was You by Sophie Cousens COMING NOVEMBER 2025 - https://amzn.to/3Fq5SR4 Romy and Michelle's High School Reunion (1997)  - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0120032/ Claudia Jessie (Eloise Bridgerton) - https://www.instagram.com/claudiajessies/?hl=en Atmosphere: A Love Story by Taylor Jenkins Reid - https://amzn.to/4mYRzUk Great, Big, Beautiful Life by Emily Henry - https://amzn.to/43IRYTp Julia Whelan, audio narrator - https://jmwhelan.com/narrator/ The Husbands: A Novel by Holly Gramazio - https://amzn.to/4dQnNx5 Holly Bourne, author - https://hollybourne.co.uk/ Guest's Links: Website - https://www.sophiecousens.com/ Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/sophie_cousens/ Twitter - https://x.com/sophiecous Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/sophiecousensauthor Connect with Jen!Jen's Website - https://jenhatmaker.com/ Jen's Instagram - https://instagram.com/jenhatmakerJen's Twitter - https://twitter.com/jenHatmaker/ Jen's Facebook - https://facebook.com/jenhatmakerJen's YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/user/JenHatmaker The For the Love Podcast is presented by Audacy.
