Emma and Molly talk Episode 1 of The Courtship! We meet Miss Nicole Rémy, her Court, and her sixteen suitors, whose names Molly repeatedly stumbles over because she can’t read her own handwriting. Other topics of interest: Austenland, the Bridgerton boom, romantic narrative structures, the horror of dating apps, The Bachelor(ette)'s racism problem, (a)historical fashion, Regency decadence, Queen Charlotte's ball, divorce in the 19th century, and where to get a corndog in Regency England.
This is our first episode, so it runs a little longer than future episodes probably will, but we've split it into two parts for your ease of listening:
Part 1: Introductions and the appeal of the Regency
Part 2: Episode recap and discussion (starting at 42:28)
