  • Episode 69 - What a Conversation with Mitchell Kohen! [Bridgerton Foley Artist]
    May 6 2025
    Grab your Very Important Props and crunchiest snacks, dearest listeners! Join us as we step into the studio to meet the man behind the sound, Mitchell Kohen, to discuss his work as the ton’s finest Foley Artist. We’ll be learning how Mitchell made a splash in the industry, from his time curating airplane playlists, to working shifts at the Grey Sloan Memorial Hospital and bowing before the Queen of Regency England.As Mitchell takes us on a tour of the Foley stage, we’ll be living a day in the life of Bridgerton post-production, walking in the footsteps of the Diamond, playing skittles with Prudence and putting on our heels to dance the Quadrille six times over. 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. What crucial role does a toy train play in the Polin love story? Why will we forever shudder at the thought of ravioli? And, most importantly, what does Francesca Bridgerton really think about SunChips?Turn up the volume and listen close: if there is one thing you should know by now, it is that this podcast cannot keep quiet for long. *Show NotesFollow Mitchell on Instagram: @soundslikemitchellFollow Mitchell on Reddit: u/soundslikemitchell*Show Notes: Crumbs Radio Times: Bridgerton casts Gracie McGonigal in Season 4 AlloCiné: Interview with Nicola CoughlanReddit: *Spoiler Alert* Rumoured casting for Season 4Reddit: Chris Fulton at Land ConYouTube: Trailer for Tudum 2025Shorty Awards: The Bridgerton Chaise speaks outGold Derby: Netflix put forward Bridgerton cast for Emmy considerationHarper’s Bazaar: Nicola Coughlan honoured with Konbini Commitment Award at CanneseriesWhatsOnStage: Nicola Coughlan to star in ‘The Playboy of the Western World’ at the National TheatrePlaybill: Hannah Dodd and Rob Madge join the London cast of ‘Cabaret’WhatsOnStage: Rob Madge’s ‘My Son’s A Queer (But What Can You Do?)’ announces New York runWhatsOnStage: Kitty Devlin joins the cast of ‘The Show That Goes Wrong’Regent’s Park Open Air Theatre: James Phoon joins ‘Shakespeare For Every Day of the Year: Live’UKTV: Release date announced for Bessie Carter’s ‘Outrageous’*Follow UsPatreon Instagram⁠ ⁠ ⁠TikTok⁠YouTube

  • Episode 68 - What a Feeling That is Like Torture! [S3E4 Rewatch, Part 3]
    Apr 20 2025
    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.

  • Episode 67 - What a Gesture! [S3E4 Rewatch, Part 2]
    Apr 6 2025
    Dance cards at the ready, dear listener. This little love play is about to begin. As Colin arrives fashionably late to the Queen’s Ball, we’ll be chasséing our way past the Lord Squad and lurking behind broken columns for the next part of our S3E4 rewatch. After a danceus interruptus sends Debling’s proposal plans waltzing out the window, we’ll be battling it out with Eros and Psyche, not drinking lemonade with Miss Francesca and solving the mystery of the view across the square. Perhaps you should put your armour back on, Colin. It appears you and Miss Featherington have something to resolve. Do try not to injure yourself too badly, though. You’ll be needing those hands for later. *Show Notes: Crumbs Entertainment Weekly: New stills from Bridgerton Season 4Reddit: Theory about Peneloise stillWhat’s On Netflix: Tudum 2025 infoYahoo!

  • Episode 66 - What a Leafy Fern! [S3E4 Rewatch, Part 1]
    Mar 18 2025
    Clear your bottle-weary heads and step away from the windowsill, dearest listeners – we are in pursuit of some revelry. Join us as we embark on the first part of our S3E4 rewatch, where we’ll be pulling out our Fuller Library cards to read up on the tragedy of a spinster, the fabled Northwest Passage and dropsy of a Featherington’s pancreas. As Pen finds herself called upon by a very fine bird and a questionable potted plant, we’ll be crunching on mille-feuilles with the Marquess, lumbering in the hallway with Colin and checking the Bridgerton armour for signs of rust. But let’s not miss the fruits of our labours, dearest listeners. Penelope may be getting a rather quick proposal tonight, but we’re not quite ready to close the book on one particular history of connection. Can’t help but be drawn back into a story of love, Miss Featherington? We concur with you there. *Show Notes: Crumbs Town & Country: Bridgerton Stars at the SAG AwardsBritish Vogue: Nicola Coughlan on her SAG Awards gownE!

  • Episode 65 - What a Return of the Ship’s Prow! [S4 Clips & Stills Reaction]
    Feb 21 2025

    Ships Ahoy, dearest listener! We’re setting sail on the Season of Love.


    As we dip our toes into the cloudy waters of 1816, we’ll be pulling down our balloons, hoisting up our kites and grabbing our tins of yellow paint to redecorate for the season ahead.


    Once we’ve dropped our anchors at Grosvenor Square, we’ll be slipping down the staircase with Benedict, sneaking into the maids’ quarters with Hyacinth and gossiping around the table with Footman John.


    As preparations get underway for A Midsummer Night's Masquerade, we’ll be dashing across the square for an important afternoon of squeezing Colin’s cheeks, playing maid for Penelope and polishing up everyone’s favourite looking glass.


    And when moonlight finally falls, we’ll be raising our masts and preparing for our decks to swept by the arrival of a skull and crossboned buccaneer.


    Pirate Pen, the swashbuckling blonde? Shiver our timbers, indeed.

    Feb 10 2025
    One, two, three – HEAVE! Grab a rope and get tugging, dearest listeners, because it’s time for Part 2 of our 303 rewatch.As Penelope risks certain(ish) death for a glimpse of Colin Bridgerton’s exposed forearms, we’ll be rolling up our sleeves, sucking the sugar from our fingers and tearing through another pair of trousers to help a thirdborn’s hero complex save the day.While we wait for the giant balloon to make its deadly approach, we’ll be passing time fourth-wheeling with Eloise, misplacing a dearly beloved pirate coat and seeking justice for severely aggrieved hand-woven swans.Once we’ve finally deflated from a blustery day’s excitement, we’ll be dropping our gloves at the Hawkins Ball, hitting mute on a meet cute and summoning the courage to ask one Miss Featherington a very important question.If only we could stop staring at her lips long enough to remember what exactly was on our minds…*Show Notes: CrumbsTudum: ‘Bridgerton – Seasons of Love: Virtual Fan Event 2025'Gold Derby: Interview with Nicola CoughlanVariety: 2024’s Most-Streamed Series RevealedHallmark: Bridgerton GiftsTudum: ‘Toxic Town’ featureYoung Vic: ‘An Oak Tree’ production informationVariety: First look at ‘The Survivors’ starring Yerin HaAudible: ‘Misdirected’ starring Nicola CoughlanThe Hollywood Reporter: ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ trailer revealedOscars: Kris Bowers’ ‘The Wild Robot’ nominated at The 97th Academy AwardsShow Notes: RewatchWriters Guild Foundation Shavelson-Webb Library"Forces of Nature."

  • The Weekly Crumb - Issue #9: What a Season of Love [Season 4 First Look]
    Jan 27 2025

    ♫ Five hundred twenty-five thousand Bridgerton siblings

    How do you measure, measure Ben’s year? ♫


    Nock your arrow, Cupid. The Season of Love is almost upon us and a brand-new target is promenading into view.


    As Footman John delivers a rather special invitation, we’ll be skipping through the gardens with Fran, seeing double with Lord Kilmartin and carrying out important hedge analysis with Miss Posy Li.


    Later, we’ll be heading to the shops with the ton’s newest Mama and a giant mint green bow, where we’ll be debating whether Eloise Bridgerton is finally ready to branch out or if we’re all just barking up the wrong tree.


    A first look at Season 4, you say? Well, Miss Baek, at least that’s one offer you can’t refuse.

  • Episode 63 - What a Rude Awakening! [S3E3 Rewatch, Part 1]
    Jan 19 2025
    Wakey, wakey sleepyheads. Looks like someone’s been enjoying their wildest fantasies a little too well. After spending the night in dreamland with Colin Bridgerton’s roused subconscious, it’s time to jump out of bed, refresh the sheets and begin Part 1 of our S3E3 rewatch. As Dream Polin consume our every thought, we’ll be breakfasting with Benedict, falling off roofs with Greg and gulping down tea with a rather flustered thirdborn son. Once we’ve commiserated over a failed reconciliation, we’ll be clearing our head with a promenade, glaring at mamas with Rae and diving under a willow tree to meet with a very good acquaintance of the family’s. And if a time-travelling vegetarian decides to come a-courting? Worry not, dear Mr Bridgerton. We have it on very good authority that Prophet Hyacinth has already foretold your future: It is just Polin. It has only ever been Polin. * Show Notes: Crumbs Shondaland: Behind-the-scenes photos of the Season 4 table read What’s On Netflix: Susan Brown cast as Mrs Crabtree PORTER: Interview with Phoebe Dynevor The Direct: Phoebe Dynevor Season 4 update Screen Actors Guild: SAG Awards 2025 nominations IFTA: IFTA Awards 2025 nominations The Hollywood Reporter: NAACP Awards 2025 nominations Art Directors Guild: ADG Awards 2025 nominations Digital Spy: Digital Spy Readers Awards 2024 The Jamie Lloyd Co.: Full casting for Much Ado About Nothing Theatre Royal Bath: A Man for All Seasons Hope Mill Theatre: Vignettes – Letters to the NHS Mrs Warren’s Profession, Garrick Theatre ITVX: The Masked Singer Show Notes: Rewatch Writers Guild Foundation Shavelson-Webb Library "Forces of Nature."
