Into The AustenverseDC and Lisa introduce their podcast’s pivot from Austen to Franklin with My Brilliant Career. First there is some Austen News (whoosh) Then they are deep into the Franklinverse to celebrate My Brilliant Career’s Netflix success (No. 2 globally, 8 million views across 190 countries) and discuss how the series captures the book’s modern, fourth-wall-breaking voice, praising Philippa Northeast as Sybylla, Anna Chancellor as the grandmother, and Kate Mulvany’s complex Aunt Gussie, plus Christopher Chung as Harry Beecham. They compare the adaptation to the 1901 novel, outline Miles Franklin’s life and legacy, and note Netflix additions like Indigenous characters, modern music, and South Australian locations, teasing a bonus interview with musical co-writer Dean Bryant.
DC mentions Bush Idyll and The Pioneer by Frederick McCubbin.
Lisa mentions Bob Downe.
Jeso. They have Australian culture covered in this ep.
