Bridgerton: A Historical Romance Juggernaut featuring Sanjana Basker

Listen Later

This week we’re joined by Sanjana (@baskinsuns on TikTok) to discuss the Bridgerton books and TV series in the context of historical and Regency Romance! 


We look at how the genre was influenced by the works of Jane Austen, and how the Bridgerton show explores the conventions of historical romance and issues like gender, race, and social class.


We also got Sanjana to take the “Which Bridgerton Are You?” quiz with us, and our results will surprise everyone. Or possibly no one. 


Follow Sanjana on TikTok at @baskinsuns and subscribe to her newsletter here. Take the quiz to find out which Bridgerton you are. 


Find us on Instagram for memes and book recs!
