Last year, we dropped this bonus episode talking with Kit Heyam about the horny teen trans Roman Emperor Elagabalus. It fits so well in this month's Pride specials, the time felt right for a rerelease! After all, the French Revolution crowd were obsessed with ancient Rome and this story is a good reminder that the Romans were just as chaotic as anyone else in any other era. Plus, we're now in a post-Gladiator II world and the way Elagabalus fits into that narrative may just surprise you.

The stage is set, but not for a fine production of Shakespeare or Greek tragedy… no, the stage is set for MURDER! Last time we met a rum assortment of ne'er-do-wells from the Regency underground, and this time one (or more) of them is about to meet a violent end. The whole sorry saga gives rise to media hysteria, public bloodlust, and an unexpected joke about pork.

Though Jane Austen went largely unrecognized in her own lifetime—four of her six novels were published anonymously, and the other two only after her death—her name is now synonymous with the period romance. On this episode of Critics at Large, Vinson Cunningham, Naomi Fry, and Alexandra Schwartz choose their personal favorites from her œuvre—“Emma,” “Persuasion,” and “Mansfield Park”—and attempt to get to the heart of her appeal. Then they look at how Austen herself has been characterized by readers and critics. We know relatively little about Austen as a person, but that hasn't stopped us from trying to understand her psyche. It's a difficult task in part because of the double-edged quality to her writing: Austen, although renowned for her love stories, is also a keen satirist of the Regency society in which these relationships play out. “I think irony is so key, but also sincerity,” Schwartz says. “These books are about total realism and total fantasy meeting in a way that is endlessly alluring.”Read, watch, and listen with the critics:“Pride and Prejudice,” by Jane Austen“Persuasion,” by Jane Austen“Emma,” by Jane Austen“Mansfield Park,” by Jane Austen“Sense and Sensibility,” by Jane Austen“Northanger Abbey,” by Jane Austen“Virginia Woolf on Jane Austen” (The New Republic)Emily Nussbaum on “Breaking Bad” and the “Bad Fan” (The New Yorker)“How to Misread Jane Austen,” by Louis Menand (The New Yorker)“Miss Austen” (2025—)“Pride and Prejudice” (2005)Scenes Through Time's “Mr. Darcy Yearning for 10 Minutes” SupercutNew episodes drop every Thursday.

She had a great influence on the first Oxford English Dictionary published in 1928 and is quoted over 1,600 times.

Thackeray's comic masterpiece, 'Vanity Fair', is a Victorian novel looking back to Regency England as an object both of satire and nostalgia. Thackeray's disdain for the Regency is present throughout the book, not least in the proliferation of hapless characters called George, yet he also draws heavily on his childhood experiences to unfold a complex story of fractured families, bad marriages and the tyranny of debt. In this episode, taken from our Close Readings podcast series 'Novel Approaches', Colin Burrow and Rosemary Hill join Tom to discuss Thackeray's use of clothes, curry and the rapidly changing topography of London to construct a turbulent society full of peril and opportunity for his heroine, Becky Sharp, and consider why the Battle of Waterloo was such a recurrent preoccupation in literature of the period.To listen to the full episode, and all our other Close Readings series, subscribe:Directly in Apple Podcasts: https://lrb.me/applecrnaIn other podcast apps: https://lrb.me/closereadingsnaSponsored Links:'Wahnfried' at Longborough Festival Opera: https://lfo.org.uk/ Hosted on Acast.

The Filtered Fragments (OG Filtrate)Joel TopfJennie LinSwapnil HiremathSpecial Guest Brad Rovin GN God and second author from The Ohio StateKoyal Jain GN Specialist from UNCAlfred Kim Rheumatologist from Washington UniversityEditing bySimon Topf and Nayan AroraThe Kidney Connection written and performed by by Tim YauShow NotesJoel's monologue One of the most surprising facts of nephrology is that despite conventional wisdom that lupus nephritis is an antibody mediated disease, that over a decade ago, the LUNAR investigtors were unable to find a significant benefit when rituximab was added to conventional therapy. And this was after the equally negative phase 2 trial of rituximab, EXPLORER.In fact, despite this finding rituximab has been able to burough its way into treatment of many nephrologists and rheumatologists as well as the KDIGO guidelines where it is suggested for patients with persistent disease activity or inadequate response to initial standard-of-care therapy.This long conflict is now coming to an end. Obinutuzumab, a newer, better monoclonal antibody targeting the same CD20 that we grew to love with rituximab, but it has a number of advantages.One. It is humanized antibody rather than a chimeric mouse-human antibodyTwo. It's cytotoxicity is not complement dependent an particular advantage if you want to deploy it ina disease where hypocomplementemia is a disease characteristicThree, and most importantly, it causes stronger and deeper b-cell depletion than rituximab.

Thackeray's comic masterpiece, Vanity Fair, is a Victorian novel looking back to Regency England as an object both of satire and nostalgia. Thackeray's disdain for the Regency is present throughout the book, not least in the proliferation of hapless characters called George, yet he also draws heavily on his childhood experiences to unfold a complex story of fractured families, bad marriages and the tyranny of debt. In this episode, Colin Burrow and Rosemary Hill join Tom to discuss Thackeray's use of clothes, curry and the rapidly changing topography of London to construct a turbulent society full of peril and opportunity for his heroine, Becky Sharp, and consider why the Battle of Waterloo was such a recurrent preoccupation in literature of the period.Non-subscribers will only hear an extract from this episode.

Wait! Let us in, dearest listeners. We've reached the climax of our S3E4 rewatch and it is everything we have been wanting to say to you for weeks. As Pen's disastrous evening comes to a close, we'll be waving down her carriage, slipping down our sleeves and proofreading Colin's list of reasons as to why Lord Alfred Debling is just not right for his Pen. And while Colin lends his bestie a helping hand, we'll be solving the mystery of a missing cravat, placing an order with Gen for a very slippy dress and writing up the cleaning bill for two traumatised Featherington footmen. But let's not forget to stop at Bridgerton House first for we believe there is a question to be asked. What else could there possibly be left to say about these two old friends? So much more, listeners. So much more. Hit it, Archer: ♫ Dink, dink, dink, dink, dink.

In this episode, I'm joined by Hilary Davidson – dress historian, curator, and author of Jane Austen's Wardrobe and Dress in the Age of Jane Austen. We dive once again into the fascinating world of Regency fashion and explore how clothes can tell stories just as powerful as words. Hilary shares the incredible process of recreating Jane Austen's pelisse, what dancing shoes of the era can reveal about society, the purpose of fashion plates and how they were used. We also chat about the evolution of menswear, and how Austen herself used fashion in her novels not just for flair, but as subtle (and sometimes not-so-subtle) indicator of morality and social standing.So whether you're a history lover, a fashion enthusiast, or just obsessed with all things Jane Austen, this one's for you. Pour a cup of tea and join us for a cozy, richly woven conversation that's all about fabric and fiction

Today, we're discussing the career of Mary Balogh. Balogh is a Welsh author who now lives in Canada and we're recording this near the fortieth anniversary of the publication of her first Regency romance, A Masked Deception. A Masked Deception was a Signet Regency Romance published by New American Library in February 1985. Balogh's most recent publication was Remember When, also a Regency Romance, published by Berkley and published just this January. Emma talks to Beth and Chels about the history of mass-market publishing in the United States, including category romances, and themes of Balogh's work throughout her career. The story of Balogh's work is a story of the last forty years of Regency romance outside the tent poles of romance history thinkpieces.Support us on our Patreon!Visit our website for transcripts and show notes: reformedrakes.comFollow us on social media:Twitter: @reformedrakesInstagram: @reformedrakesBeth's TikTokChels' TikTokEmma's TikTokChels' SubstackEmma's SubstackThank you for listening!
