What a Barb! A Polin Podcast

It has been quite a journey we have taken together, dear listeners. At long last, it is time to fluff our ostrich feathers and step into the light for the final part of our S3E8 rewatch. As Whistledown's final plan falls into place, we'll be delivering letters to Violet, opening up our floorboards to fund a Featherington fiesta and standing by Penelope's side as the scribe herself reveals herself to the ton. And after a chat on the swings with Beloise, we'll be packing our bags for Scotland and joining a (finally!) happily married couple on the steps of Bridgerton House to we wave goodbye to Season 3 for one last time. Our love story is now complete, dearest listeners. And, forgive us, but that was bloody brilliant. But it's time now to look toward the future, whatever it may bring. After all, what is life without a little gossip?*Show Notes"Into the Light." Bridgerton. Written by Daniel Robinson. Unpublished manuscript (double white revisions, no draft date).

Beware shallow waters, dear listeners. Spoilers are ahead.With only a week to go until our carriage arrives back in Mayfair, we’re wading out a little deeper as we share our first reactions to S4E1 The Waltz. As the Bridgerton servants prepare our scones, we’ll be polishing up Benedict’s rock collection, searching the ton for Fran’s pinnacle and making sure no one spills tea on the heir to the Featherington name. Following a dance lesson with a silver ingenue, we’ll be sniffing our wrists and turning our attentions to matters of the heart with Matchmaker Colin. After all, we’d wager he’s not the only one blessed with the gift of the gab.And if you’re feeling a little chill from the passing winter, then it’s time to slip on your silver gloves and step back into the ton. The seasons are changing, dearest listeners, and who knows what lies in the beyond? *Show NotesShondaland: Season 4 Premiere RecapTudum: Six New Photos Tease What's Ahead for the TonInstagram: @BridgertonNetflix Season 4 Character VideosYouTube: Pay Or Wait's interview with the cast of Bridgerton Season 4*Follow UsInstagram⁠ ⁠ ⁠PatreonTikTok⁠YouTube 

Uh…shall we pop the kettle on, Colin?As we awake from a fitful night on the sofa, we’re fluffing our pillows and pouring ourselves a cup of trage-tea for Part 1 of our S3E8 rewatch. With newlywedded bliss nowhere in sight, we’ll be taking the carriage alone to visit Pen’s mother and Walter Dundas Esq. before swinging by Bridgerton House to console a grumpy husband with an unfortunately timed hero complex. And while one marriage might be on the rocks, it won’t stop us from grabbing our confetti and bagpipes as we walk Fran down the carpet to join John in holy (and probably temporary) matrimony. ‘Till death do you part, Frohn. But hold your dying breath, dearest listeners. A gossip writer has been exposed and a blackmail plot is underway. Best get the chequebook out, Pen. That ticket to Vienna won’t pay for itself. *Show Notes"Into the Light." Bridgerton. Written by Daniel Robinson. Unpublished manuscript (double white revisions, no draft date).

Rakes of the ton, beware – Violet Bridgerton is on the warpath. Join us as we raise our kites in honour of the Benophie New Year and celebrate the long-awaited arrival of the Season 4 Part 1 trailer. With our maid pinafores freshly starched for the year ahead, we’ll be taking a trip downstairs where we'll find Sophie a good costume for one glorious night and grab the mop and bucket to clean up the aftermath of an alphabetic shaving cream fight.Across the square, we’ll also be helping Penelope tie a mask on a pirate’s mast before we sneak into a ballroom with Hy, waltz in the bandstand and impatiently await a midnight unmasking. And if we see a rocking Featherington carriage thereafter? Well, life is meant to be lived, dear listeners. Later, we’ll be joining Benedict for an artistic retreat in the country where a chance encounter will lead to a time slip, a hidden necklace and a naked rake dripping in a lake. Should this scandalous acquaintance be forgot and never brought to mind? Perhaps an offer from a gentleman might free him from a bind. *Show Notes:Shondaland: 12 Days of Bridgerton: https://www.shondaland.com/shondaland-series/bridgerton/12-days-of-bridgertonTudum: Season 4 Part 1 Trailer: https://www.netflix.com/tudum/articles/bridgerton-trailer-season-4-part-1Tudum: Season 4 News and Updates: https://www.netflix.com/tudum/bridgertonInstagram: @rottentiger_art: https://www.instagram.com/rottentiger_art/ *Follow UsPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/whatabarbpod/ Instagram⁠: https://www.instagram.com/whatabarbpod/ ⁠ ⁠TikTok⁠: https://www.tiktok.com/@whatabarbpod⁠ 

Happy Wedding Eve, one and all. Yep, we’re swapping boughs of holly for bouquets of larkspur as Penelope and Colin finally nod their way down the aisle in Part 2 of our S3E7 rewatch. Following a late night of secret dealings, marriage counselling and a little horsing around, we’ll be wiping the dust from our eyes and taking our seats next to a gaggle of redheads for the nuptials of the season. Once we’ve joined Pen and Colin in holy matrimony, we’ll be admiring swan cakes and chasing jelly moulds before a royal gatecrasher puts our wedding night plans in peril. Let’s hope that sofa’s comfy, Colin. But if things are looking a little bleak for our newlyweds, then worry not. If we take a peek beneath the Christmas tree, we might just catch a glimpse of the happy couple kissing underneath the mistletoe. You know we love them so. * Show Notes Coming SoonWriters Guild Foundation Shavelson-Webb Library: ⁠⁠https://www.wgfoundation.org/⁠⁠"Joining of Hands." Bridgerton. Written by Geetika Tandon Lizardi.

The worst reaction out of everyone in the ton? Well, he is a sensitive boy. With a secret out in the open and an engagement up in the air, we have our social calendar full this week as we begin our rewatch of S3E7 Joining of Hands. As we plan the most elaborate wedding breakfast of the season, we’ll be checking the diaries of the Smythe-Smith quintet, finding a hair tie for a heartbroken ponytail and taking a trip across town to check the marital status of an old friend. Elsewhere, we’ll be eavesdropping on a staircase confrontation between an uncommonly lucky Eloise and a commonly entrapped Colin, before baiting our nets to catch a sad little rainbow fish over at Featherington House. But beware, dearest listeners: we hear an imposter is on the loose. And gossip as we might, we cannot tolerate a lie. Isn’t that right, Penelope? *Show Notes Coming SoonWriters Guild Foundation Shavelson-Webb Library: ⁠https://www.wgfoundation.org/⁠"Joining of Hands." Bridgerton. Written by Geetika Tandon Lizardi.

Hell is empty and the she-devil is here, dearest listeners. As Colin puts a ring on a very inky finger, we'll be joined by an impending sense of doom for our S3E6 rewatch of Deceiving - uh, we mean Romancing - Mister Bridgerton. We'll be chaperoning with Portia, matchmaking with widows and making an announcement of an announcement with a newly-betrothed Frohn. Elsewhere, Minster Hughes will be taking us to church for a reading of the banns, a Creloise break-up and an impromptu loved-up waltz. Seems like Sunday service is the perfect time for confession. Right, Pen? As we discover that ladies do not have dreams and Wills do not have bars, we'll be burning our life's work with Pen and burning the midnight with Colin and his...implements. And with the scribe herself ready for her big entrance, we'll be heading to the Mondriches for the revelation of the Season's greatest secret: a giant flowery Dalek. With a viper on the loose and a fiancé on our tails, we'll be grabbing our pens and carriages for a late night dash to the printers. But has anyone been keeping an eye on Colin? Prepare to unfold, Lady Whistledown.

Cinch your wrists, dearest listeners. The Season 4 crumbs are dropping faster than an unbuttoned glove on the Featherington tiles. Join us as we take a trip down the staircase to brush fingers with an enigmatic Lady in Silver, catch the eye of an enamoured Man in Mask and clutch our pearls at the sight of a scandalously bedazzled ankle.After spending the day redecorating with Colin, we’ll be grabbing our binoculars and maps to join a search party with a rather reluctant sibling. Thought your days of tracking down mysterious ladies were behind you, El? Think again, dear sister. And once the paint has dried at Featherington House, we’ll be masking up and stepping back into the ballroom to celebrate the return of everyone’s favourite Cheese Man and his bug-loving wife. Hold onto your banisters, everyone. The search for true love is only just beginning.*Show NotesTudum: Updated Bridgerton Season 4 article Instagram: @BridgertonNetflix TODAY Show: Interview with Shonda Rhimes *Follow UsPatreonInstagram⁠YouTubeTikTok⁠ 

Thank Goodness! A leak has sprung at Bridgerton House and we couldn’t be happier. To celebrate the unmasking of the Season 4 release dates, we’ll be tipping our gloves to the Dutch, hiking with the ducks and grabbing our baskets for a good old fashioned Easter egg hunt.* After drinking that brown liquor with a Bridgerton father figure, we’ll also be stopping by Romney Hall to scatter a few seeds with the Collector and search for a Lady in Silver standing amongst the roses. And if we happen to have a little Spare time on our hands? Well, perhaps we’ll borrow a Baronet’s tools to do a spot of raking around. With 7 reasons to love Benedict Bridgerton and only 116 days until we love Sophie Baek, the gloves are off and the countdown is on. Unmask true love? Don’t mind if we do.

Care for a game of charades, dearest listeners? Bridgerton rules, everyone. After a couple more rounds on the chaise, we’re taking the carriage across the park to finish up our S3E5 Part 2 rewatch before the clock runs out. Um. The clock of life, of course. With the Queen back on her fruitless hunt, we’ll be snacking on biscuits with a hungry Pen, shirking Colin’s gaze all evening and chasing a suspicious streak of mud with a phantom-to-be. While Kate outdoes herself at the Polin engagement party, we’ll be inviting ourselves over for macarons, riddles and-- LILIES. FORGET-ME-NOT. LILACS! (No, Anthony. Dessert.)And as the clock approaches midnight, we’ll be gasping for breath as we wait to see if the intellectual genius of the group will finally reveal herself. Time will surely tell, dear listeners. So let’s raise a toast to muddy boots, atrocious riding and to knowing each other fully.

No furtive looks necessary, dearest listener. Our S3E5 Part 1 rewatch is not a thunderbolt from the sky. With a newly engaged Polin busy announcing their happy news, it seems we have much to catch up on indeed. We’re in high spirits, despite the one Bridgerton sibling who’s even less thrilled about it than Eloise. As word of the betrothal spreads through the ton, we’ll be shouting for all of Mayfair to hear as we fry fish with Anthony, take a morning stroll with Benedict and buffer up the bee on Colin’s belt. Is there more? Oh, so much more. After a showdown between Catherine the Great and the neighbour boy, we’ll be heading to an opera singer’s residence to pull down the dust sheets, lay out our furnishings and turn our two blue pools towards a conspicuously placed looking glass. Lie down, dearest listeners. There are other parts we’ve been dreaming about. And you should see them as well. *Show Notes: Crumbs IG: @BridgertonNetflix Season 4 end of production videoShondaland: Photos from the Season 4 Table ReadThe Hollywood Reporter: Interview with Jonathan BaileyWhat’s On Netflix: Bridgerton Adds 12 Supporting Cast MembersDeadline: 5 Songs with Bridgerton Music Supervisor Justin KampsDeadline: Adjoa Andoh at Italian Global Series FestivalCiak Magazine: Interview with Polly WalkerLoungefly: Bridgerton Mini Backpack*Show Notes: Rewatch Writers Guild Foundation Shavelson-Webb Library"Tick Tock."

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."

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

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?

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!

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’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?

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."

♫ 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. * Show Notes Shondaland: Bridgerton Season of Love Event Tudum: Bridgerton Virtual Fan Event 2025 Netflix: RSVP to the Season of Love Fan Event YouTube: Bridgerton at Tudum 2021 YouTube: Bridgerton at Tudum 2022 YouTube: Bridgerton at Tudum 2023 YouTube: Bridgerton Virtual Fan Event 2024 Bustle: Interview with Phoebe Dynevor W Magazine: Interview with Jonathan Bailey Spotify: What a Barb!

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."
