Artificial intelligence is evolving at an unprecedented pace—what does that mean for the future of technology, venture capital, business, and even our understanding of ourselves? Award-winning journalist and writer Anil Ananthaswamy joins us for our latest episode to discuss his latest book Why Machines Learn: The Elegant Math Behind Modern AI . Anil helps us explore the journey and many breakthroughs that have propelled machine learning from simple perceptrons to the sophisticated algorithms shaping today’s AI revolution, powering GPT and other models. The discussion aims to demystify some of the underlying math that powers modern machine learning to help everyone grasp this technology impacting our lives, even if your last math class was in high school. Anil walks us through the power of scaling laws, the shift from training to inference optimization, and the debate among AI’s pioneers about the road to AGI—should we be concerned, or are we still missing key pieces of the puzzle? The conversation also delves into AI’s philosophical implications—could understanding how machines learn help us better understand ourselves? And what challenges remain before AI systems can truly operate with agency? If you enjoy this episode, please subscribe and leave us a review on your favorite podcast platform.

Just put your hand on the glass, dear listeners. It’s time to reflect on the latest Polin mirror-cle.

We’re starting with the gentleman in the mirror as he finally gets around to crossing off his two-hundred-year-old to-do list, before catching up with his good friend Pen and a most hardworking pair of fingerless gloves.

Meanwhile, Necklace Truthers arrive from across the fandom to ask the most important question of all: Mirror, Mirror in Pen’s room, is that her necklace from Tudum?

And just as our looking glasses are getting a little too steamed up, we find ourselves plunged into the Arctic Tundra courtesy of one very cold shoulder from a less-than-impressed wallflower.

Has all that Gruyère-ling self-reflection worked up an appetite, Mr Bridgerton? Well, do Comté the kitchens for a spot of evening caseiculture with Beans. Cheesemaking on a Polin podcast? You’d feta find a whey to brie-lieve it.

2:03:13

Ships Ahoy, dearest listener! We’re setting sail on the Season of Love. As we dip our toes into the cloudy waters of 1816, we’ll be pulling down our balloons, hoisting up our kites and grabbing our tins of yellow paint to redecorate for the season ahead. Once we’ve dropped our anchors at Grosvenor Square, we’ll be slipping down the staircase with Benedict, sneaking into the maids’ quarters with Hyacinth and gossiping around the table with Footman John. And as preparations get underway for A Midsummer’s Night Masquerade, we’ll be dashing across the square for an important afternoon of squeezing Colin’s cheeks, playing maid for Penelope and polishing up everyone’s favourite looking glass. But then we’ll be raising our masts and preparing for our decks to swept by the arrival of a skull and crossboned buccaneer. Pirate Pen, the swashbuckling blonde? Shiver our timbers, indeed. * Show Notes Coming Soon * Follow Us Patreon Instagram TikTok YouTube…

One, two, three – HEAVE! Grab a rope and get tugging, dearest listeners, because it’s time for Part 2 of our 303 rewatch. As Penelope risks certain(ish) death for a glimpse of Colin Bridgerton’s exposed forearms, we’ll be rolling up our sleeves, sucking the sugar from our fingers and tearing through another pair of trousers to help a thirdborn’s hero complex save the day. While we wait for the giant balloon to make its deadly approach, we’ll be passing time fourth-wheeling with Eloise, misplacing a dearly beloved pirate coat and seeking justice for severely aggrieved hand-woven swans. Once we’ve finally deflated from a blustery day’s excitement, we’ll be dropping our gloves at the Hawkins Ball, hitting mute on a meet cute and summoning the courage to ask one Miss Featherington a very important question. If only we could stop staring at her lips long enough to remember what exactly was on our minds… * Show Notes: Crumbs Tudum: ‘Bridgerton – Seasons of Love: Virtual Fan Event 2025' Gold Derby: Interview with Nicola Coughlan Variety: 2024’s Most-Streamed Series Revealed Hallmark: Bridgerton Gifts Tudum: ‘Toxic Town’ feature Young Vic: ‘An Oak Tree’ production information Variety: First look at ‘The Survivors’ starring Yerin Ha Audible: ‘Misdirected’ starring Nicola Coughlan The Hollywood Reporter: ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ trailer revealed Oscars: Kris Bowers’ ‘The Wild Robot’ nominated at The 97th Academy Awards Show Notes: Rewatch Writers Guild Foundation Shavelson-Webb Library "Forces of Nature."

♫ Five hundred twenty-five thousand Bridgerton siblings How do you measure, measure Ben’s year? ♫ Nock your arrow, Cupid. The Season of Love is almost upon us and a brand-new target is promenading into view. As Footman John delivers a rather special invitation, we’ll be skipping through the gardens with Fran, seeing double with Lord Kilmartin and carrying out important hedge analysis with Miss Posy Li. Later, we’ll be heading to the shops with the ton’s newest Mama and a giant mint green bow, where we’ll be debating whether Eloise Bridgerton is finally ready to branch out or if we’re all just barking up the wrong tree. A first look at Season 4, you say? Well, Miss Baek, at least that’s one offer you can’t refuse. * Show Notes Shondaland: Bridgerton Season of Love Event Tudum: Bridgerton Virtual Fan Event 2025 Netflix: RSVP to the Season of Love Fan Event YouTube: Bridgerton at Tudum 2021 YouTube: Bridgerton at Tudum 2022 YouTube: Bridgerton at Tudum 2023 YouTube: Bridgerton Virtual Fan Event 2024 Bustle: Interview with Phoebe Dynevor W Magazine: Interview with Jonathan Bailey Spotify: What a Barb!

Wakey, wakey sleepyheads. Looks like someone’s been enjoying their wildest fantasies a little too well. After spending the night in dreamland with Colin Bridgerton’s roused subconscious, it’s time to jump out of bed, refresh the sheets and begin Part 1 of our S3E3 rewatch. As Dream Polin consume our every thought, we’ll be breakfasting with Benedict, falling off roofs with Greg and gulping down tea with a rather flustered thirdborn son. Once we’ve commiserated over a failed reconciliation, we’ll be clearing our head with a promenade, glaring at mamas with Rae and diving under a willow tree to meet with a very good acquaintance of the family’s. And if a time-travelling vegetarian decides to come a-courting? Worry not, dear Mr Bridgerton. We have it on very good authority that Prophet Hyacinth has already foretold your future: It is just Polin. It has only ever been Polin. * Show Notes: Crumbs Shondaland: Behind-the-scenes photos of the Season 4 table read What’s On Netflix: Susan Brown cast as Mrs Crabtree PORTER: Interview with Phoebe Dynevor The Direct: Phoebe Dynevor Season 4 update Screen Actors Guild: SAG Awards 2025 nominations IFTA: IFTA Awards 2025 nominations The Hollywood Reporter: NAACP Awards 2025 nominations Art Directors Guild: ADG Awards 2025 nominations Digital Spy: Digital Spy Readers Awards 2024 The Jamie Lloyd Co.: Full casting for Much Ado About Nothing Theatre Royal Bath: A Man for All Seasons Hope Mill Theatre: Vignettes – Letters to the NHS Mrs Warren’s Profession, Garrick Theatre ITVX: The Masked Singer Show Notes: Rewatch Writers Guild Foundation Shavelson-Webb Library "Forces of Nature."

Make-up brushes at the ready, Rae. We should like to try something a little different tonight. Join us as we welcome Erika Ökvist for a discussion of her exquisite work as Hair and Make Up Designer of Bridgerton Season 3. As Erika reveals her journey from aspiring princess to an Emmy award-winning designer, we’ll be slipping on the banana peel of creativity to explore the importance of artistic experimentation, storytelling through details and why inspiration can be found in the most unlikely of places. Erika will be taking us through the day in the life of a busy Bridgerton set, tackling tattoos, heatwaves and the deadliest sin of them all: gossiping. Elsewhere, we’ll be visiting Featherington House to discover the secrets of a Mayfair starlet and why true love really is the silk lining in our very own woollen coats. And as the Season 3 winds blow our favourite traveller ashore, we’ll be swooning over pirate coats, sea swept waves and one very tousled emotional support curl. After all: Colin Bridgerton, your eyebrows are the most remarkable shape of seagull wings. * Follow Erika on Instagram: @erika_okvist_makeup_designer Show Notes: Crumbs Russh: Interview with Yerin Ha W Magazine: Interview with Jonathan Bailey Elle Italia: Interview with Jonathan Bailey Entertainment Weekly: Feature on ‘Jurassic World Rebirth’ People: Interview with Simone Ashley Sky: The Night Before Christmas in Wonderland Radio Times: Interview with Nicola Coughlan Pink News: Interview with Jessica Madsen YouTube: Shondaland Behind-the-Scenes IG: Bridgerton nominated at Make-up Artists & Hair Stylists Guild Awards IG: Bridgerton nominated at Costume Designers Guild Awards Netflix: Bridgerton FYC Deadline: Interview with Kris Bowers for ‘The Wild Robot’ Bath & Body Works: Bridgerton Candle – Colin’s Return Funko!

O Willow Tree! O Willow Tree! How lovely are thy branches! Alas, dear listeners. It has been quite a journey we have taken together. Join us as we look back over a most remarkable year of Polin, celebrating string quartets, non-friendly dreams and a very Shooketh Colin. We'll be playing Secret Santa for our dearest members of the ton, gifting Byron's novel to an unappreciative Benedict, maple sugar to a suspicious Pen and parmesan cheese ice cream to a grimacing Eloise. And after we've nursed our hangovers with Colin and checked on those pesky staffing issues at Bridgerton House, we'll be joined by the Ghosts of Seasons' Past and Present for a festive trip to the library.

Pucker up, dearest listeners. There’s a full moon in the sky and a question on Penelope’s lips. Join us for Part 2 of our S3E2 rewatch, as we take cover with an abandoned pirate coat, sneak a peek at a little Parisian smut and take a crash course in Bandaging Mister Bridgerton. Once Pen’s made sure her hand is all patched up, we shall be galloping along to the nearest lunar soirée to search for a missing bonbon, take a sex ed class with Portia and mourn the loss of a quickly departed steed. As we get back into the saddle with Season 1 Colin, we’ll also be commiserating with Window Pen, planning our next paycheck with Rae and slipping into the garden for a covert meeting with an old friend: the Pointy Topiary. And once hope is lost, on an unknown night of the week, in the heart of Mayfair, in a moonlit garden in Grosvenor Square, we’ll sobbing along as Colin Bridgerton kisses Penelope Featherington.

Imagine it with us, listeners. A dashing suitor – sorry, tutor – and his very teachable pupil dedicated to academic pursuits. What could possibly go astray? Accompany us to Rotten Row for fresh air, a fluttering of fans and a little failed flirting as we begin our rewatch of S3E2 ‘How Bright the Moon.’ As a brightly coloured bonnet and a fatalistic gust of wind conspire to forge this particular history of connection, we’ll be reminiscing over mornings at the bordello, Sunday teas at Bridgerton House and a most remarkable shade of blue. So take a gulp of your emotional support lemonade and grab your playing cards – it’s time for an eagerly awaited visit to the classrooms of Grosvenor Square. You wish for no more talk of books, Colin? We’ve heard through the grapevine that your star pupil is preparing her own seminar, ‘Romancing Professor Bridgerton,’ and we’d bet anything she’s going to get full marks. * Spoiler Warning 40:26-40:36 - Brief mention of a Season 4 filming leak * Show Notes Writers Guild Foundation Shavelson-Webb Library "After the Rain."

Dearest Polin rewatchers, we have been apart for far too long. After four months, seventeen cities and zero letters from redheads with exquisite roobies, the tides of change have finally swept our sturdy pirate back to English shores. And it seems as though he's arrived with a new friend: the Emotional Support Curl. As we swagger glove-first into the finest match of the year, we’re raising our lemonades in honour of fashion icons past, cold shoulders and texts that really should’ve stayed in drafts. And thanks to Rae’s side hustle of making a profit out of one man’s desperation, we’ll be returning to the scene of the Polin crime for an entirely platonic love confession, a titillating double handshake and the formation of a rather splendid plan. Doomed to fail spectacularly? Surely not. After all… are they not friends? * Show Notes - Crumbs Elle: Nicola Coughlan on Emmy's 2024 Red Carpet Voice: Kick Some Class: Claudia Jessie talks going from council estate to Bridgerton The Jamie Lloyd Co: The Tempest Etsy: Journals By James Instagram: @JournalsByJames Focus Entertainment: Warhammer Space Marines II @SohoPlace: White Rabbit Red Rabbit Reasons to be Joyful Podcast: Sam Phillips Talks Bridgerton and The Crown YouTube: Mum I'm In A Movie Instagram: Mum I'm In A Movie Radio Times: First Trailer Released for Channel 5's The Hardacres Nordisk Film & TV Fond: Last to Break Trailer Fever Up: Candlelight x Bridgerton Spotify: 'Too Sweet' (Hozier) by Atwood Quartet Spotify: What a Barb!

Filming leaks falling down like pieces into place... The cameras are rolling. The churro truck has opened up. It's time to pack Gregory off to Eton and welcome the newest family to town as we celebrate the beginning of Season 4 production. While Portia and Colin battle it out over the Featherington ledgers, we pull up our silver gloves, borrow a few items out of Westley's wardrobe and steal away into the gardens for a late-night rendezvous, (not so) far away from prying eyes. And as we dream up family plans for the festive season, we recruit a pedagogical gerbil to help us track down a missing Viscountess, a Succubus of the First Water, and everyone's favourite Plant Daddy. Our very first look of a midnight masquerade? That's fifty points to Ravenclaw. * Show Notes Coming Soon…

But before we lock up our trunks and board the boat back to Mayfair, we have one last task on our hands: ardently, fervently and loudly declaring our Season 3 episode rankings.

Episode 55 - What a Rare Bavarian Text! [S3 Q&A Pt 2] 1:21:02

Sigh no more, listeners, sigh no more. The Lady in Silver has been found at last. But there’s no rest for the Wicked as Beans has found herself with a new mystery on her hands: we don’t even know which rare Bavarian text it is, but we’re looking for it. As we scour the shelves of Shakespeare & Co. for the elusive tome, we’ll also be searching for answers to burning Season 3 questions about bandaged flashbacks, Italian Contessas and babies named Ginger. Elsewhere, we try to recover from the shock of finding Kanthony inside their own home by sitting down to talk Regency mommy bloggers, Daddy issues and whether Mr Bridgerton said he’d buy the flowers himself for the Featherington estate. And as August(us Gloop) slips away into a moment of time, we’ll be reminiscing over summer love at the Polin wedding and the cryptic identity of a most important guest. Fife or not Fife: that is the question. * Join Us on Patreon Patreon: What a Barb!

The Ton’s out for summer. But over here, the Class of 1815 is still very much in session. In the first of our S3 Q&As, we’ll be turning on our Regency location settings, standing on Crumbs sentry and tackling the hard-hitting questions of the social season. Which Soft Colin line still has us swooning? Which moonlight bisoux stole our hearts? And why can’t we stop ourselves from laughing at the bleakest moment in Polin history? Elsewhere, we cool off from the heat by dipping our toes in the Season 4 waters, discussing a mysterious meeting at a masquerade and an urgent call for a tiny, unnamed redhead. And as Colin gets a taste of his own carriage-flavoured medicine, we’ll be revisiting old, oblivious friends, mourning the missed moments of the season and confronting the most important question of all: Who broke the heart of everyone’s favourite snake? * Spoiler Warning 13:55 – 16:55: Discussion of leaked Season 4 audition script * Show Notes – Crumbs Instagram: Sophie audition scene leak Instagram: Ryan Wheeler Twitter: Blooper Reel (via @bridgerton) TikTok: Mum, I'm in a Movie Instagram: Mum, I'm in a Movie Spotify: We Can’t Be Friends (originally by Ariana Grande) - Atwood Quartet Spotify: Waiting for Tonight (originally by Jennifer Lopez) - Archer Marsh Deadine: Bridgerton’s Nicola Coughlan Signs With CAA * Show Notes – Main Episode and Outro Shondaland: BTS featurette - A Dance Story ⁠⁠ ⁠ Barnes and Noble: Exclusive S3 Soundtrack, Colin’s Blue Eyes Edition Etsy: Obvs’s Hot Air Balloon Necklace RedBubble: Flamedork Spotify: Chandelier (originally by Sia) - Vitamin String Quartet ⁠ Spotify: I, Carrion (Icarian) - Hozier ⁠ * Follow Us Instagram ⁠ ⁠ TikTok⁠ YouTube…
