First Impressions and Locating Jane Austen's Ghost

We're so sad to say goodbye to Smut month, but we're sending it off with a truly fantastic book and a thinker of a book club. In C.M. Nascosta's MORNING GLORY MILKING FARM, our heroine Violet finds herself working an unconventional job 'milking' minotaurs in Cambric Creek. Violet is making the best out of her new career when a stern, deep-voiced client beings to request her specifically for his milking sessions, throwing a spanner in the works. Can love really bloom at the milking farm?

Join us as we answer that question and more: how do you kiss a minotaur? Just how much is 24 ounces of minotaur fluid? Why is romance so obsessed with large members? And who would win in a bracket competition of common monster smut creatures?

Be warned: it's smut month, so the episode may be especially NSFW.

 A million and one innuendoes: Interview with Amy Andrews

This week Amy, Payton, Abby & Justina discuss Katherine Angel’s book, Tomorrow Sex Will Be Good Again, and deep dive into the nuances of sex, consent and desire. What kinds of social scripts have we been taught about sex and consent and why are they so dang gendered? Why is the patriarchy always at the scene of the crime? And how does this all shake out when romance and smut books enter the chat? 

Content warning: This episode includes discussion of sexual assault and child sexual abuse.
