If you're a fan of the hit series, Queen Charlotte Bridgeton Story, then you're in for a treat.

Because on Queen Charlotte, the official podcast, we're going to step behind the scenes and hear how this beautiful show came to life.

And as you know, we're going to nerd out with the cast and the crew.

Over here, we get into the story. We get into the characters.

So while we're combing through the series, we have really special interviews.

We have executive producer and series director Tom Verica.

Images that we drew upon, Jeff Juror and I, there was so much visual storytelling that we were given freedom to do.

And of course, we can't talk about Queen Charlotte a Bridgeton story without speaking with the creator, Shanda Rhymes.

That's the point, by the way, is that I now live in a world where I don't need to ask anybody's permission to do what I want to do.

And I'm really fascinated by the constraints placed on women who did have to ask permission.

We have amazing guests lined up for you, including India Armitifio, who is exactly the way we envisioned a 17-year-old young Charlotte to be.

I know y'all agree.

And even Corey Milcrest, who shines as a young King George stops by.

George's hand hits the table and it just pans from Freddy's hand to his face and

there's a swell in the music and you go, oh my god, this man is carrying everything.

We also have Julia Quinn join us to talk about the new Queen Charlotte book.

If you've got questions that you need answers to, you need to hear that conversation.

So here's the deal.

You go watch an episode of Queen Charlotte of Bridgeton Story on Netflix, and then you come here and hang out with me and

Shonda Land to talk about the show, and then you go read. And we just do that in the cycle over

and over and over again. I'm your host, Gabby Collins. Let me be your companion on this

Bridgeton prequel that dares to push the envelope and deliver in full that sexy regal wit and entertainment once again.
