What a Barb! A Polin Podcast

• Episode 66 - What a Leafy Fern! [S3E4 Rewatch, Part 1]

  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]

  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.* Show NotesYouTube: Bridgerton Season 4 | Sneak Peek: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICLiZ0KUSeM Tudum: Relive the Bridgerton Season of Love 2025 Virtual Fan Event: https://www.netflix.com/tudum/features/bridgerton-virtual-fan-event-2025Shondaland: Your First Look at Bridgerton Season 4: https://www.shondaland.com/shondaland-series/bridgerton/new-photos-video-first-look-at-bridgerton-season-4Shondaland: Exclusive: All the Things You Didn’t See (or Hear) at the ‘Bridgerton’ Season Four Season of Love Event: https://www.shondaland.com/shondaland-series/bridgerton/exclusive-bridgerton-season-four-season-of-love-event IG: @catquinn: Will Brimsley have his happily ever after? https://www.instagram.com/p/DGYJSdsu1Wq/?hl=enIG: @catquinn: Taylor Swift song in Season 4: https://www.instagram.com/p/DGLbQXwObyn/?hl=en IG: @catquinn: Easter eggs in Benedict and Sophie’s masquerade costuming: https://www.instagram.com/p/DGG10nQSbL9/?hl=en IG: @catquinn: Jess Brownell teasing Benophie moments: https://www.instagram.com/p/DGGVk29NCXn/?hl=enIG: @catquinn: Bridgerton Season 4 Word Association: https://www.instagram.com/p/DGD_f21Pf9A/?hl=en Reddit: Season 4 filming leak of Footman John welcoming home Eloise and the Stirlings: https://www.reddit.com/r/PolinBridgerton/comments/1iupa1j/comment/me4m10m/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=web3x&utm_name=web3xcss&utm_term=1&utm_content=share_button Writers Guild Foundation Shavelson-Webb Library: https://www.wgfoundation.org/"Joining of Hands."

• Episode 64 - What a Pensive Hero! [S3E3 Rewatch, Part 2]

  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]

  ♫ 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!

• Episode 63 - What a Rude Awakening! [S3E3 Rewatch, Part 1]

  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."
