Sexuality, 'Rake' Vernacular and Character Journeys

Dear gentle reader, Bridgerton has returned. We have your first look at season 4 of the much loved Netflix drama. With all the delicious Regency era language (we are petitioning for "rake" to be the word of 2026) and a hot new leading man (without mutton chops). Loosen your corsets, this is going to be steamy.

Plus, Em recommends a horror movie?! Our resident scaredy cat loved this latest cinematic release starring Rachel McAdams and Dylan O'Brien. A little bit Survivor, a little bit slasher it might be the perfect first date movie.

Need a refresher before watching Bridgerton Season 4? Listen to our all new Bridgerton podcast on Spotify and Apple.
