Description

Lydia & Tay discuss episode 2 of Netflix’s Bridgerton, “Shock and Delight.”

Lady Danbury continues to sweep the episode’s Best Dressed, and Queen Charlotte takes a surprise win for Best Undressed. We talk flashbacks of Simon’s backstory, drama, gratuitous shirtless scenes, the woeful inadequacies of Regency- & modern- sex ed for women and girls, adaptation comparisons, music, and accurate undergarments.

CW: Traumatic childbirth, maternal mortality

Tay's audio quality will improve next week, sorry! Tune in as we discuss episode 3, "The Art of the Swoon."

What we’re reading:

John Jackson Miller, Star Wars: A New Dawn

Alyssa Cole, How to Catch a Queen (Runaway Royals #1)
