  • I Was Vibing With It Until I Wasn’t

    I was loving this podcast because I love rom-coms and loved how this show was analyzing them from a professional perspective while still showing love to most of the films covered. But I’ve suddenly come to a halt. I’m sorry, but I do not like the fact that they justify cheating.

  • What I’ve been needing.

    I’ve been obsessed with Bridgerton since the first episode of season one aired. But what I’ve loved since a child has been romcoms. I’ve been wanting to chat with friends who are just as passionate about the stories of love and the silly things that make the comedy fit in perfectly. I found it with this great podcast!!

  • Love it!

    Just found out about this podcast! And I’m already hooked, planning to do a rewatch so that I can listen to the podcast as I rewatch to get all the insight/conversation about it, as none of my friends watch Bridgerton this way I feel like I have someone to talk about it with!!
