Material culture history, quirky insights into Haworth as a real location and the epicenter of Bronte bizarreness, and young, energetic podcast hosts make for a really fun listen. Their love of Taylor Swift almost makes me want to listen to one of her songs.
This is the best podcast ever! Brings in everything from cholera to Taylor Swift, yoga to wildflowers, poetry to rocks to wedding trousseaus, all of course woven through the fascinating lives of the Brontës and the equally fascinating place they lived. The hosts are really insightful and charming, and all the guests are such intelligent and creative people! Season 2 when????

If you have even a passing interest in the Brontës, this is the show for you!

What a great way to showcase a museum collection—generally a visual experience—using an audio medium. I have also been delighted to learn more about the Yorkshire region through the special guests featured on the podcast. I can’t recommend the show hi... more
