Pucker up, dearest listeners. There's a full moon in the sky and a question on Penelope's lips. Join us for Part 2 of our S3E2 rewatch, as we take cover with an abandoned pirate coat, sneak a peek at a little Parisian smut and take a crash course in Bandaging Mister Bridgerton. Once Pen's made sure her hand is all patched up, we shall be galloping along to the nearest lunar soirée to search for a missing bonbon, take a sex ed class with Portia and mourn the loss of a quickly departed steed. As we get back into the saddle with Season 1 Colin, we'll also be commiserating with Window Pen, planning our next paycheck with Rae and slipping into the garden for a covert meeting with an old friend: the Pointy Topiary. And once hope is lost, on an unknown night of the week, in the heart of Mayfair, in a moonlit garden in Grosvenor Square, we'll sobbing along as Colin Bridgerton kisses Penelope Featherington. And, dear listener, it will be bloody glorious. * Show Notes - Crumbs: YouTube: Luke Thompson and Yerin Ha read from ‘An Offer from a Gentleman' Bustle: Bridgerton's Yerin Ha Teases Benedict's “Mr. Darcy Vibes” In Season 4 Tudum: Netflix announces Netflix Moments campaign Town & Country: Jonathan Bailey confirms continued working collaboration with Jack the Horse The Hollywood Reporter: Jonathan Bailey says he'll ‘always come back' to Bridgerton Harper's Bazaar: Feature on Nicola Coughlan getting ready for the Women of the Year Awards Harper's Bazaar: Nicola Coughlan's speech at the Women of the Year Awards HURR X Choose Love The Hollywood Reporter: First look at ‘The Faraway Tree' Deadline: Luke Newton joins sci-fi thrilled ‘White Mars' PEOPLE: Interview with Luke Newton for PEOPLE's 2024 Sexiest Man Alive issue Student Life: Adjoa Andoh speaks at WashU Boots UK: Christmas campaign starring Adjoa Andoh IG: Mum I'm in a Movie Etsy: Polinfancomic Show Notes - Rewatch: Writers Guild Foundation Shavelson-Webb Library "Out of the Shadows."

We can't wait to see you there. Welcome back to Lez Hang Out, the podcast that wants to talk to you about your avoidant attachment style. This week, Leigh (@lshfoster) and Ellie (@elliebrigida) hang out with Sarah Rotella and Adrianna DiLonardo of The Gay Women Channel (@gaywomenchannel) to talk about why the 1999 Julia Roberts romcom Runaway Bride Should've Been Gay. Picture it, you're a small-town dyke who has had failed beard relationship after failed beard relationship, ultimately leaving all your beards at the altar. Now a big-city journalist has rolled into town and is weirdly intent on poking into all your past relationships and outing you. What's a closeted dyke to do? Well, if you're Maggie Carpenter (Julia Roberts), apparently the answer is to get down on one knee and propose to a gym teacher that you've known for all of 2 days. Even though this movie is intent on throwing Maggie at a carousel of men, she is so freaking gay the entire time. The very first moment that we see Maggie she is on a horse galloping full speed away from a man. She spends the entire movie alternating her outfits between all-flannel all the time and a wedding dress while hanging out in her tool shed looking apartment. It's honestly nonsensical that she has been passing as a straight woman for all this time. We know one thing for sure, Runaway Bride Should've Been Gay.

Loup Barrow is a Parisian composer and master of the cristal baschet, a steel instrument consisting of 56 chromatically tuned crystal rods. Played like wet wine glasses, the rods resonate through the steel body and are expressed outward through three amplifying cones positioned at the front, producing otherworldy sounds that may be familiar to sci-fi fans. The largest of these, called "The Flame", is somewhere between that and a flower, perfectly polished and photogenic. Loup channels the world around him through mastery of this instrument and the tones produced reach deep, invoking a spectrum of thought and feeling.

sister Sophie and his dear friend Étienne.Fr: Cependant, caché au fond de son cœur, il avait un désir secret, quelque chose qu'il voulait aussi, un peu de récompense pour lui-même après une année difficile.En: However, hidden deep in his heart, he had a secret desire, something he wanted for himself as well, a little reward after a difficult year.Fr: Mais chaque fois qu'il y pensait, une vague

admirée plusieurs fois en passant devant cette vitrine, et l'idée de l'avoir à son poignet le fit rêver un instant.En: Camille had admired it several times while passing by this shop window, and the

tout autant que ses gestes généreux pour les autres.En: He realized then that taking care of himself mattered just as much as his generous gestures for others.Fr: Ce jour-là, il apprit qu'il pouvait

Baba au Rhum: A Boozy French Delight with Royal Roots In this episode of Fabulously Delicious, The French Food Podcast, we're exploring the delightful and decadent world of the Baba au Rhum. This classic French dessert, a soft, syrup-soaked cake, has become a favorite across France—and beyond! But there's much more to this boozy treat than meets the eye. With its roots in Central and Eastern Europe, and a name that means 'grandmother' in Slavic languages, Baba au Rhum has an unexpectedly international past. We'll trace the Baba's journey to France, thanks to an exiled Polish king with a sweet tooth and a clever pastry chef who transformed a dry cake into a dessert legend. This little cake was reimagined with a touch of French elegance, a dose of rum, and plenty of whipped cream, eventually finding a home in Paris at the famous Stohrer Pâtisserie, where it still delights dessert lovers today. Baba au Rhum has even found fame in Italy, especially in Naples, where it has become a local specialty. Italian pastry chefs took this dessert and added their own spin, creating the ‘babà' and later inspiring the ring-shaped Savarin cake in France. Both cakes highlight the versatility of the Baba's basic recipe, showing how one small cake can inspire so many delicious interpretations. Join us as we uncover the fascinating tale of the Baba au Rhum, from its royal beginnings to its modern-day charm. You'll discover the secrets behind its perfect texture, the best way to enjoy it, and why this little cake soaked in rum has captured the hearts—and taste buds—of dessert lovers around the world!

Episode 442 - Steve Hoffman - A Season For That - Lost and Found in the Other Southern FranceIn this poignant, delicious memoir, American tax preparer and food writer Steve Hoffman tells the story of how he and his family move to the French countryside, where the locals upend everything he knows about food, wine, and learning how to belong.Steve Hoffman is a perfectly comfortable middle-aged Minnesotan man who has always been desperately, pretentiously in love with France, more specifically with the idea of France. To follow that love, he and his family move, nearly at random, to the small, rural, scratchy-hot village of Autignac in the south of the country, and he immediately thinks he's made a terrible mistake. Life here is not holding your cigarette chest-high while walking to the café and pulling off the trick of pretending to be Parisian, it's getting into fights with your wife because you won't break character and introduce your very American family to the locals, who can smell you and your perfect city-French from a mile away.https://sjrhoffman.com/Support the show___https://livingthenextchapter.com/podcast produced by: https://truemediasolutions.ca/Coffee Refills are always appreciated, refill Dave's cup here, and thanks!https://buymeacoffee.com/truemediaca

Abbaye de Belloc - Cheeses of France Series Discover the unique story behind Abbaye de Belloc, a cherished semi-hard cheese from the French Pyrenees, crafted from the rare, rich milk of red-nosed Manech cows native to the Basque region. Regulated under France's prestigious AOC (Appellation d'Origine Contrôlée) laws, Abbaye de Belloc is a part of the Ossau Iraty family of cheeses, renowned for its nutty, caramelized flavors and dense, creamy texture. Each wheel represents a centuries-old tradition and the dedication of the Benedictine monks who perfected this cheese. In this episode, we journey to the Abbaye Notre Dame de Belloc, near the picturesque village of La Bastide Clairence, a gem of Basque heritage. Learn how the monks' devotion to labor and prayer inspired their cheesemaking methods, creating a cheese deeply tied to its place of origin. From WWII resilience to agricultural development in the 1960s, Abbaye de Belloc's production reflects a remarkable legacy preserved through local partnerships and modern support. Abbaye de Belloc's production uniquely blends regional history with culinary artistry. After the monks turned cheesemaking over to a nearby creamery in the 1990s, Habitat et Humanisme, a French nonprofit, stepped in to ensure the abbey remained a hub for cheesemaking and community service. Today, young interns continue the work, crafting and aging each wheel under the abbey's roof, honoring an ancient method while supporting affordable housing initiatives. Indulge in the flavors of Abbaye de Belloc as we explore its exquisite pairing options, from robust wines like Pinot Noir to earthy Shiraz, which enhance the cheese's caramelized richness and nutty character. Join us in celebrating the taste, tradition, and cultural legacy of Abbaye de Belloc—a true taste of Pays Basque's heritage. Looking to deepen your culinary journey beyond the podcast?

When my friend told me she wanted to get a tattoo of Henry James on her arm, I'll admit I was skeptical, but this week's guest, Phu Phi Nguyen, did a spectacular job. Phu Phi doesn't usually tattoo portraits at all, saving them for her paintings and murals. Her usual tattoo style is incredibly fine-lined, detailed, and beautiful. True works of art, often reserved for flowers and plants. Now co-owner of her own Parisian tattoo shop, Monkeys Factory, Phu Phi also specializes in “therapeutic tattoos” for breast cancer survivors with mastectomy scars, burn victims, and other survivors.What is it that draws Phu Phi to fine-line tattooing and bold, graphic murals? How does she bring these two seemingly-opposite worlds together?

Champagne Today, on Champagne Day, we're diving deep into the fascinating history and artistry behind the world's most luxurious bubbly. Champagne is more than just a drink; it's a symbol of celebration, elegance, and French heritage. In this episode, we'll explore how Champagne evolved from the still wines of ancient Rome to the sparkling effervescence loved worldwide. We'll look at the terroir of the Champagne region—its chalky soil, climate, and unique geography—which creates the ideal environment for cultivating grapes like Pinot Noir, Pinot Meunier, and Chardonnay. We'll also examine the story of the "accidental bubbles," once seen as a flaw but now the hallmark of Champagne's magic. The pioneering contributions of figures like Dom Pérignon, who refined the wine-making process, and Madame Clicquot, the Widow Clicquot who revolutionized Champagne production with the riddling method, are explored in detail. Their work, along with advancements in glassmaking and secondary fermentation methods, helped transform Champagne into a coveted product across European royal courts and beyond. The journey doesn't stop there—Champagne's rise as a global symbol of sophistication is also a testament to strategic marketing by houses like Moët & Chandon and Veuve Clicquot. Through clever branding and partnerships with high society, these producers embedded Champagne into the fabric of elite celebrations. Today, top houses still carry on this legacy, crafting blends that represent tradition, innovation, and impeccable quality, whether in sweet rosés or ultra-brut bottles. Finally, we touch on the worldwide impact of Champagne, from its stringent appellation laws to its presence in international markets, where it's synonymous with celebration and luxury. With more than 300 million bottles produced annually, Champagne's reach is global, and yet it remains distinctly French. Join us as we toast to Champagne's enduring allure and discover what truly makes it a sparkling masterpiece worthy of celebration. Looking to deepen your culinary journey beyond the podcast?

“Let us march! Let us march! May impure blood water our fields!” Written after the declaration of war against Austria in 1792, “La Marseillaise” was born in the provinces of France, away from the Parisian metropole, and immediately became popular as a unifying rallying cry against foreign invaders, and the enemies of the Revolution. It was the “fédérés” from Marseille, instrumental in the storming of the Tuileries Palace, who had first brought the song to the streets of Paris. But how did this uncomprimising, gruesome tune come to resonate with all the various factions within revolutionary France? Join Tom and Dominic in the final part of season two of The French Revolution, as they uncover the origins of the most famous war song of them all: La Marseillaise. _______ LIVE SHOWS *The Rest Is History LIVE in the U.S.A.* If you live in the States, we've got some great news: Tom and Dominic will be performing throughout America in November, with shows in San Francisco, L.A., Chicago, Philadelphia, Washington D.C., Boston and New York.

The Story Of Françoise Fayolle In today's episode of Fabulously Delicious The French Food Podcast, we continue our series, The Story Of, where we delve into the lives of influential French chefs throughout history. This time, we shine the spotlight on Françoise Fayolle, a pioneering figure among the celebrated Mères Lyonnaises. Born in 1865 in the quaint village of Auzelles, Fayolle's journey took her from a modest rural upbringing to becoming one of the most admired chefs in France. Her culinary prowess not only earned her fame in Lyon but helped define French cuisine as we know it today. Fayolle's early life was a tapestry of hard work and determination. As the eldest of ten daughters, she left home at 15 to work as a cook in affluent households in Grenoble and Lyon. Her time in these kitchens introduced her to haute cuisine, shaping her refined palate and deep love for the art of cooking. In the face of economic struggles, Fayolle took a bold step, opening her own bistro in Lyon. It quickly became a favorite spot for locals, tourists, and performers, showcasing her skill in crafting hearty yet elegant dishes, including her famed poularde demi-deuil and truffle-infused delights. A key figure in the rise of the Mères Lyonnaises, Françoise Fayolle helped break barriers in a male-dominated culinary world, elevating home-style cooking to new heights. Her restaurant became a symbol of Lyon's gastronomic evolution, mirroring the city's transformation from a provincial town to a global culinary hub. Alongside other renowned chefs, such as Eugénie Brazier, Fayolle played an integral role in making Lyon the gastronomic heart of France. Join us as we explore the life of this remarkable woman whose legacy lives on in Lyon's culinary traditions. Françoise Fayolle, La Mère Fillioux, paved the way for generations of chefs, blending the rustic warmth of home cooking with the sophistication of French gastronomy, ensuring her place in history as one of the greats.

In this episode of Fabulously Delicious: The French Food Podcast, we continue our series The Story of, where we delve into the lives of extraordinary French chefs from the past. This week, we focus on the life and legacy of Pierre Franey, a master of French cuisine who brought the flavors of Burgundy to kitchens across the world, including those in America. Born in the quaint village of Saint-Vinnemer in 1921, Pierre's passion for cooking was ignited by the rich culinary traditions of his homeland, and by the time he was just a teenager, he was already embarking on a journey that would take him to the heights of the culinary world. Pierre Franey's career is a remarkable tale of hard work, resilience, and a deep love for food. After honing his skills in some of Paris's most prestigious kitchens, Pierre crossed the Atlantic to work at the French Pavilion during the New York World's Fair. His talent quickly garnered attention, and he eventually rose to become a celebrated chef in the U.S., particularly known for his time as the executive chef at Le Pavillon, one of New York's most iconic French restaurants. Yet, it was his collaboration with Craig Claiborne of The New York Times that truly cemented Pierre's influence on American cuisine, with their partnership introducing French cooking to home kitchens across the country. Throughout his career, Pierre Franey's contributions to food went far beyond the kitchen. He was a pioneer in making gourmet French cuisine approachable for home cooks, through his popular column The 60-Minute Gourmet and his television shows. In this episode, we explore his journey from a small French village to becoming a household name in America, his influence on the way we cook and enjoy food, and the lasting impact he left on the culinary world.

Asmaa is a 2x Olympic judoka and 6x African Champion who came to judo when most athletes are retiring. Now at 41, Asmaa has decided to say goodbye to the mat on her terms and focus on her next chapter. But first, let's hear how she got to where she is today. She's a Parisian firefighter (the only one in her community), founder, psychologist, daily ice-bath lover, and so much more. Throughout it all, Asmaa's journey has been about continually challenging herself, staying grounded, and playing. “I'm 20 years old with 21 years of experience. I have a child's spirit.” She shares how, "The word ‘PLAY' is literally in the world ‘OLYMPIC,' so you can never forget that we are playing a sport." We talk about Asmaa's motivation and what gets her up in the morning. “I am driven by helping a human being reach their full potential.” We hear about her hopes for the future of women's sports, and how women (whether they are athletes or not) can support the movement. This conversation is co-hosted by 2x Olympian and 6x National Figure Skating Champ, Maé-Bérénice Méité.
