A Bridgerton Episode - Part 1: Actually so much representation (and also Pitbull)

TRANSCRIPT HERE

 

My Dear Readers (I mean listeners, you get it)

Welcome to a surprise episode of Psychocinematic, where we cast all serious topics to the wind and focus on what makes us feel safe and protected right now from a world falling apart - trashy, romancey, sexy, gossipy Bridgerton. But did you think I would NOT have disability and mental illness representation to discuss? THINK AGAIN - as usual it is inescapable.

Join me solo as I discuss all the disability and mental illness representation we have seen thus far, who we hope has a gay storyline, and who of the Bridgerton world could be coded neurodivergent. Also, the incredulity of turning Pitball into the soundtrack of the obligatory peak h0rny scene.

Content warning: sex, some ableism, some swears.
