The Bridgerton Bros

The Bridgerton season 3 trailer has dropped, and there’s minimum two, maybe three new characters revealed already, and one of them wasn’t even in the friggin’ books: Lord Debling (Sam Phillips) a Netflix creation all for Penelope’s enjoyment. He throws a wrench in the Pen/Colin plan, and we’re (sort of) reserving judgment for now. Hit us with your thoughts, feelings, predictions, and if you would be so kind, a rating and a review, even! We can’t wait to be back for Bridgerton Season 3! Until then, we keep it going over on Patreon.com/kevinandjon. Follow us over at @thebridgertonbros on Insta, @brosbridgerton on Twitter

Bridgerton wished us all a very happy Valentine’s Day with a couple new teaser clips, and we’re here to play them in full for ya, comment on them, and tell you everything we know so far, like the episode dropdates: four episodes on May 16th, and four episodes on June 13th. We also talk sh*t to David Zaslav when we meant Ted Sarandos but the points still stand, and you won’t BELIEVE the trivia Jon drops at the end. About one minute of new video, and 30 minutes of your Bridgerton Bros — sounds about right. We can’t wait to be back for Bridgerton Season 3! Until then, we keep it going over on Patreon.com/kevinandjon. Follow us over at @thebridgertonbros on Insta, @brosbridgerton on Twitter.

Happy Valentine’s Day, lovers! We decided to do a classic romcom that *one* of us had never seen, and drop it as a romantic, holiday bonus. So here we are, with a movie that doesn’t work on paper, but big time works on the screen: a star-making turn by Julia Roberts who has “it” more than just about anyone has ever had, Richard Gere somehow making us like a 41 year old billionaire, Hector Elizondo being an all-time hotel daddy, Jason Alexander portraying the most punchable man of all time, Laura San Giacomo as a really fun bestie and PATRICK RICHWOOD as a scene stealing elevator man. Oh, and Garry Marshall with one of the most impossible directing assignments of all time, done perfectly. Folks? After 5 years, this is our longest single podcast episode of all time. We hope you enjoy it, and we love you for everything you’ve done for us. Happy Valentine’s Day. If you’d like Kevin & Jon in your life on the regular, year-round? Join patreon.com/kevinandjon.

Do you Bridgerbuddies have some extra traveling this Thanksgiving season? Some extra time in the car, on a plane, or just drowning out your relatives? Well, we've got a sort of on theme bonus podcast for you, bringing it over from the Patreon to the main feed. (Plot summary starts at 9:04 time stamp) We hop back into the Regency Era for the 2005 Jane Austen adaptation of “Pride and Prejudice” starring Keira Knightley. Elizabeth Bennett has to solve a few mysteries before she catches feelings for Mr. Darcy, but our “plain” heroine does just that, while also trying to play wingwoman for her sister Jane. We’ve got a potato-eating pervert, Mr. Bing Bong, drunk children, a dink with a ponytail, and a nice dad along for this classic ride, and we hope you enjoy it as much as we did. This podcast happened via a request from SEVERAL patron pals, and if you haven’t yet, join the fun over there at patreon.com/kevinandjon! The video version of the podcast can be found over there. And as always…rate and review us, you dukes and debutantes.

In the Queen Charlotte finale, we all have to slide under the bed for a little safety. In future Bridgerton times, the Queen’s kids finally clap back at the good Queen/bad mom, while still trying to find her another heir, and a little hat gives away an old secret between Danbury and Violet in future Bridgerton times. In young Queen times, she has her first child, and gets to work on another. In both timelines, she ultimately fights through everyone and everything to find her King. We admit it: the end made us emo. Thanks for joining us on our boozy sprint through Queen Charlotte, and we can’t wait to be back for Bridgerton Season 3! Until then, we keep it going over on Patreon.com/kevinandjon. Follow us over at @thebridgertonbros on Insta, @brosbridgerton on Twitter.

It’s time for some vegetation-based sexual metaphors! We get a forbidden love story for young Lady Danbury, a hint at a future love story (or lust story) for the extremely worked up Violet Bridgerton, and Queen Charlotte thinks about bolting for Germany. Ultimately, she decides to stay, and fight, and try to save our George. Also there’s a wedding for people you absolutely do not care about, Eyebrows and Timothy SHAMalet. Rate and review us, and we'll put in a good word for ya with the newly horned up Mrs. Bridgerton!

In an episode that is a significant amount of scenes we’ve literally seen before, we rewind and get the King George perspective of things to this point. We see him get the news of his wife to be, his ensuing episode, and his last ditch effort to try to “fix” himself, which leads him into the hands of a power hungry, abusive doctor. The good news is: he saved a cute lil’ doggie. Rate and review us, and we won't dunk ya in the ice bath!

The Queen and King are still beefin’, but that doesn’t mean they can’t put some good old-fashioned hate sex on a regular, every-other-day schedule. We get the OG Danbury Ball, a look at Bridgermom (Violet Ledger) as a child, with her racist mom and enabling (but better) dad, a death that we’ve actually been rooting for, and a big weird night for Farmer George…that ends with a pretty nice depiction of real love. Rate and review and you’ll be SO invited to our ball. Follow us over at @thebridgertonbros on Insta, @brosbridgerton on Twitter, and join the extra fun at patreon.com/kevinandjon.

The Queen goes from bored to pissed as she chases down her king, and asks the very important question: why no bone zone? Ultimately they locate that very important location (with no witnesses, which is apparently an innovation?), and said bone zone is a place their assistants have been enjoying together for a WHILE, apparently. Queen Danbury is a big highlight in this one, with a great showdown with the Queen Mother, and stepping up into the role as Charlotte’s bestie. Things aren’t all rosy though, as we end things with an unfortunate mother/son fight, an unfortunate door left open, and an unfortunate panic attack. And if it wasn’t too much trouble, a rating and a review would simply charm us.

In the first episode of the Queen Charlotte series, the pre-Queen Charlotte finds her way from Germany to England…and she has no idea why she’s been chosen. She also has no idea what the King’s deal is, or what he looks like. There’s a problematic Queen Mother with an ALL TIMER of a problematic question (shout out to Lizzie for the inspiration), an introduction of our girl Danbury, and a baker’s dozen of loser kids giving our present-day Queen Charlotte some trouble. Welcome back, Bridgerbuddies! If you wouldn’t mind, we would simply ADORE a rating and a review if you have a moment. Let’s binge this thing!

May 4th, we will return to binge Queen Charlotte’s new series with you. But for now? We go DEEP on the new extended trailer, and catch you up with what we know so far. THEN (starting at 25:08), we tell you all about the book “Inside Bridgerton,” from Shonda Rhimes and Betsy Beers. Behind the scenes photos, stories, the answers to some controversial topics — it’s fun! And it proves: we CAN actually read. Suck on that, haters!

Happy Valentine’s to us all! We have been gifted a new “Queen Charlotte: A Bridgerton Story” trailer, and more importantly, a release date: May 4. Six episodes will drop all at once the first weekend of May (which we will fully cover), and Kevin and Jon hop on the mics for the first time in MONTHS to analyze the trailer, the characters, and what we know so far.

Lindsay Lohan is back with a Netflix Christmas movie, and Kevin and Jon were hungover after celebrating Friend Christmas this weekend, so we have a seasonal bonus episode for y'all, and if you drink every time you see a Christmas movie cliché, you'll black out 'til actual Xmas. It's Overboard-meets-It's A Wonderful Life with Lindsay Lohan and Chord Overstreet, and they're joined by a Pee Wee Herman-lookin' influencer character, an obvious real Santa Claus that no one seems to notice, and a ton of super fake snow. Happy holidays, and give yourself the gift of joining us at patreon.com/kevinandjon where we're doing bonus movies and shows all the time!

The year was 2004, and a group of ladies on Wisteria Lane brought a bunch of wacky drama that turned into the biggest pop culture phemonenon of the year: Desperate Housewives. Teri Hatcher, Marcia Cross, Eva Longoria, Felicity Huffman, Nicollette Sheridan and a series of dudes including a hot gardener and — according to Jon — a slightly less hot plumber have given the fellas behind Sex and The Cidiots & The Bridgerton Bros a new project to binge. Kevin and Jon will be taking on season 1 (at least) over on the Patreon while we wait for the return of And Just Like That & Bridgerton, and if you’d like to join us for the ride, head over to patreon.com/kevinandjon.

Dearest Gentlelisteners, as you know, Shondaland is always expanding its borders, and it seems a Bridgerton spinoff will now be delivered unto us…sometime in 2023. Kevin and Jon hop on the mics to sum up what we currently know about the series that was just announced, and to say yes, we will be podcasting about it right here on the Bridgerton Bros feed. Rate and review if you haven’t, and mark your calendars for this release date that has not been actually announced by anybody!

Back in 2001, a time travel romcom starring Meg Ryan and a young Hugh Jackman came into our lives, and far in the future, Kevin and Jon talk about it. Hugh Jackman plays Leopold, Duke of Albany, a man out of time and reason enough for us to make this connection with our Bridgerton Bros audience. Come for Hugh’s actually great, Golden Globe nominated performance, stay for Sleepy Meg Ryan, Wacky Liev Schreiber and a whole bunch of other surprising, fun cameos. Thanks to Patreon supporter Lisa for the request! Remember: if you join at the soulmate level, or pledge a full year of support at any level, you get to request a podcast on ANYTHING that Kevin and Jon will do.

There’s a new, popular, romantic, old-timey British movie on Netflix, so Kevin and Jon figured it was a good time to hop on the Bridgerton Bros feed for an in-between-seasons episode. We’re doing the modernized (VERY modernized) Persuasion, a story by Jane Austen. Dakota Johnson stars and breaks the fourth wall, and Jon develops a crush on one of the worst sisters in history in this Cinderella-meets-Fleabag-meets-Bridgerton-meets-Instagram Influencer update on an old classic.

We’ve got Bridgerton Book Club Experts The Basic Moms (Julie McNulty & Claire Gregory) back again to tell us everything about Bridgerton book 2, “The Viscount Who Loved Me,” and how it differed from the Netflix series. The #1 difference? Oh, just the plot. NBD. They also tell us about the new characters, their reaction to the shakeup of Colin and Pen going next, and what the biggest controversy of the season was for fans of the book. Follow The Basic Moms on Instagram @the.basic.moms, and the Facebook Group: Mom Chat by The Basic Moms.

Penlin? Colinope? What do we call them? It seems like this latest Bridgerton announcement is not only saying season 3 will be about Colin and Penelope, but about them…together? Oh boy. We parse the latest Whistledown and talk about our feelings and thoughts (and some of yours!) for the now announced season three of Bridgerton in a lil’ mini episode for y’all. We’ve missed you already! And great news: we’ll be back next week to talk about the differences between the books and season two with a couple fun guests, so don’t you dare unsubscribe!

Listeners of the ‘Ton, we’re bringing all our stories to a rousing climax in the season 2 finale! (Plot recap begins at 6:32) We’re talking about Kate’s smol coma, Anthony’s growth from angry young man to magnanimous head of the family, the Sharma sisters’ public rebrand, world’s worst detective Eloise finally getting to the heart of who Whistledown is, and the Featherington’s grift reaching its inevitable end. And, thank God…there are some sexy times. It’s such a special day, Jon traveled to NYC to broadcast in person from Kevin’s studio. It’s the end of one hell of a social season, and we can’t wait to see you for the next one! Patreon: patreon.com/kevinandjon Instagram: @thebridgertonbros Twitter: @brosbridgerton
