Obsessions: Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu on the Escapist Joy of Bridgerton

This week on Obsessions, we're joined by absolute powerhouse Dr Shola Mos-Shogbamimu.

The lawyer, political women's rights activist, and author of the brilliant This Is Why I Resist is chatting to us about the one and only Bridgerton. Dr Shola will be telling us about why Bridgerton has left a lasting impression on her; from the gorgeous costumes, to the even more gorgeous Duke of Hastings, and the irresistible plots.

Ione, Olivia and Shola will also be discussing the shows controversies; from that scene between the Duke and Daphne surrounding his decision not to have children and what it teaches us about consent, the uproar over the 'colour blind' casting of the series and why the backlash is ridiculous, how Bridgerton has switched up the power dynamics we expect to see from on-screen relationships, the show's handling of trauma, and much more.
