  • The one where we finally talk about Bridgerton
    Jun 16 2022

    This week we're finally getting around to discussing all things Bridgerton, from the images and objects that make up the show's material cultures, to its sense of historical accuracy (or lack thereof!), and how it represents a range of identities both historical and contempory. We also talk about Regencycore, and both Caroline and Serena share their experiences of Bridgerton-themed parties. Enjoy!

  • Festive Special
    Dec 10 2021

    Join us this week for a very special festive edition of the Travelling Sisterhood of Art Historians podcast. First up, we (drunkenly) talk about some wintery images and objects, Christmas traditions, and our love for the Muppets' Christmas Carol. Then we're joined by our brilliant guests Sarah Coomer and Dr Jane Suzanne Carroll, who discuss why Christmas is the perfect time for a ghost story, and what looking at children's books can tell us about material culture, histories of consumption, and Christmas gifts.
