Happy anniversary, dearest listeners! Join us as we raise a catch and toast to Bridgerton Season 3 Part 1 and reminisce over twelve splendid months of flyaway balloons, scandalous journals and the most remarkable shade of blue. We'll be taking a celebratory carriage ride to the library to meet with a Regency king, a rugged pair of boots and a very tingly Lady Whistledown. And as Portia teaches a little lesson in self-love, we'll be lending Colin a hand in catching an authoress in an unexpected corner. With the champagne still flowing, we'll be moving the afterparty over to Bridgerton House for a chandelier rendezvous with Sibling Number Two and a rather enchanted Lady in Silver. And so, as we begin the next part of our journey, let us cheers once more to the match of the season, and the oldest of friends!*Show NotesTudum: Bridgerton renewed for Seasons 5 and 6Tudum: Sneak peak of Season 4 masquerade ballInstagram: @BridgertonNetflix Season 5 & 6 announcementWriters Guild Foundation Shavelson-Webb Library: https://www.wgfoundation.org/"Out of the Shadows."

We'll also be uncovering the secrets of Lady Whistledown's quill, an earthy afternoon tea and the great escape of a soon-to-be-monarch.

Jen was my first guest from the Great British Sewing Bee in November 2020 because Jen is a strong supporter of the SewOver50 community.

Tune in for an engaging discussion filled with deep analysis, unexpected surprises, and heartfelt humor, reflecting on the intricate friendships and alliances that shape the rich storyline of Bridgerton.

Dearest Gentle Readers, Did you miss us? Already this message is beginning to sound way too much like Gossip Girl. But who was Lady Whistledown if not the original GG? And in this episode we'll be sorting the Lady W herself, along with her simp of a husband and her mama, who may not be as awful as we all initially thought (spoilers: we at SOB love her). I know you're all worried we got rusty in our sorting skills over hiatus but we're here to tell you we DEFINITELY DID NOT. Because truthfully we never stop. Now sit back, relax, and let us tell you what houses these members of the ton belong too. XOXO LW

What did you think of Bridgerton Season 3? Julia Golding and Kate Macfarlane review the latest season but also put Lady Whistledown through her paces. They look at the real Lady Whistledown and the place for public scandalmongering. What was the role of gossip in Jane's world and where is it a major plot device in her novels? Stay tuned for Jane Austen news. janeausten.co.uk Then type 'Jane Austen Festival 2024'. The page has links to all events and a festival programme. https://austenvariations.com/gossip-and-scandal-in-jane-austens-world/

It's the "Pen"-ultimate episode of Season 3, and Lady Whistledown's situation is more precarious than ever. Can Penelope convince Colin to become Lord Whistledown or must she accept her fate as "just a Bridgerton," which (let's be real, girl) is not the end of the world? Will Cressida send the whole house of cards toppling to the ground for a shot at a better life? Will the Mondriches snub yet ANOTHER invitation to tea in some weird, misguided power play -- Just kidding, we don't give a crap about them and we will not waste more than 90 seconds of your valuable time discussing them. It's all up for debate for at least one more week until we bring you the exciting (?) conclusion of Bridgerton: Season 3!   Don't forget to rate and subscribe!

Candi returned this week to discuss the second half of Bridgerton Season 3.  The discussion kicks off with an "apologies, errors, and omissions" segment in which I take myself to task for context from the first two seasons of the series that I did not have available to me when we discussed the first part of Season 3.  I've now watched the full series and wanted to flag key plot points that definitely shaped my thoughts on the rest of Season 3. Candi and I then discuss our thoughts on the Lady Whistledown reveal, all things Polin, Francesca's potential love triangle, and some of the other secondary plots.  We talk about what we think is up next for the Bridgertons - Benedict is LONG overdue for his own season. The discussion - as well as me finally watching the first two seasons - left us with a lot of things we wanted to say about the series as a whole.  Candi has graciously agreed to come back for another round of Bridgerton talk, so stay tuned for that!Friendly reminder - we drink, we know things, we use adult language, and we have a great time. Don't  miss my coverage with Terence of the FANTASTIC second season of Interview with the Vampire.  Here's the link to the latest episode [link] and don't miss our discussion about episodes 1-2, 3 and 4.

Hello, everyone! On today's episode of The Adaptation, as promised, we are reviewing Bridgerton Season 3, Part 2. At the end of P1, we left off with Pen and Colin finally making the move from friends to lovers. The first half of the season finished with their iconic carriage scene, and Colin proposing to Pen. We all knew the second half of the season would be a complicated one: what would Colin do if he found out Pen was Lady Whistledown? What would Eloise do when she found out her ex-best friend was engaged to her brother? How would every other tiny subplot - of which there were hundreds - tie up amongst these big themes the show needs to cover?  Your hosts today were Zara McDonald (@zamcdonald), Eilish Gilligan (@eilishgilligan) and Anjana Khallouf (@anjanakhallouf). This episode was audio produced by Annabelle Lee. Big thanks to Cobram Estate Extra Virgin Olive Oil for making this episode possible.

The town is abuzz about Cressida, apparently the barely literate, dumbest person anyone's ever heard of, forming complete sentences as Lady Whistledown, but many have their doubts. Pen struggles with giving up her work for this “dream” life, Benny ends up on a surprising dinner for three, Francesca and Sterling announce a marriage to middling enthusiasm, and you're not gonna believe this, but…there's a BALL. And one big reveal (at least to ONE character) at the end. Follow us on Instagram @thebridgertonbros and join us at patreon.com/KevinandJon!

We're halfway through the season and all of Colin and Penelope's building sexual tension finally comes to head...or should we say, a finger? (Or two.) It's zero to sixty from a diddle in the carriage to a ring on the finger, but who cares how we got there once we get there? With four episodes to go, we await the inevitable second act twist in which Lady Whistledown must reveal her secret. We're also looking forward to Cressida's potential redemption arc, Francesca and John exchanging perhaps four or five words at a time, and discovering what the beef is between Lady Danbury and her dashing brother Marcus. All this to come in our next installments of The Bridgerton Project! Stay with us! There's safety in numbers!   Don't forget to rate and subscribe!

Did you ever wonder what it would be like to get exclusive access to the RHS Chelsea Flower Show? Well, your dreams have come true because in this exclusive interview we got an all-access pass to THE horticultural event of the year thanks to Annie Guilfoyle, a 2024 judge. Annie is co-founder of Garden Masterclass in the UK and an award wining garden designer who earned a Silver Medal at Cheslea years ago for her innovative landscape design. Annie is just back from the show this year and shares details from her favorite gardens, interesting new plants that caught her attention, and even some celebrity gossip from those stars that were in attendance at the show. (Spoiler alert: she did not  see Lady Whistledown at the Bridgerton -themed garden). We discussed how native plants and sustainable practices played a role in this year's event and talk about themes of water conservation and hardscape upcycling.   Looking to attend the show next year? Then you're in luck because Annie shares some tip sand tricks for navigating the show grounds and insights on how to make the most of your visit. Who needs Monty Don when you've got Annie Guilfoyle? Not us! 

Tick tock on the clock, but the bounty don't stop, no... As our carriage pulls up outside Bridgerton House, it's time to carefully adjust our dresses and head inside to face the music (3/4 is far sweeter) as we react to the Season 3 Part 2 teaser trailer. While we wait for Pen to hurry up and tell Colin a tiny piece of information, we decide to kill a little time by taking a trip across town to pull down dust sheets and corsets alike. And as the hunt for Lady Whistledown finally gets underway, we'll be dancing at a flowery ball, squinting at some dodgy printing and pulling out our cow-culators to figure out just how much the Monarchy has been impacted by the cost-of-living crisis. Time to make haste, Penelope. The clock on the mantlepiece is ticking and midnight is fast approaching. And if all else fails? Well, there's nothing quite like the good old art of the swoon. * SPOILER INFORMATION This episode was compiled using the Season 3 Part 2 teaser trailer, behind-the-scenes footage from Shondaland and stills released by Netflix Latin America. No unverified rumours or spoilers are shared or discussed in this episode beyond the hosts' own speculation. Spoilers from the Netflix Latin America reel will be preceded by a short spoiler warning.

This week comedian and actor John Hodgman joins Megan, Chris, and Kurt. They love their kids, BUT…why are we putting the pressure on ourselves to take out a mortgage to send our kids to a school where the main subject is shapes? Chris went to an open house at a prestigious school that is part Hogwarts, part Clyvedon Castle and he was ready to spill it all to Lady Whistledown just for a shot at getting his daughter into the idyllic pre-k program. That was until he heard the $25,0000 price tag…FOR PRE-K. And while the crew laments about the difficulties of finding a good school on the west coast, John reveals that the east coast isn't much better. Because choosing a middle school in NYC meant forcing his kids to decide what they wanted to do for the rest of their lives before they were even capable of picking out two matching socks. It doesn't matter where you are in the country, we can all agree that the pressure to pick a good school is getting out of hand. We want what's best for our children but they can hold off on choosing a major in pre-k and go back to relishing the sweet, sweet taste of glue.
