(It’s actually been up but I forgot about it! This week, however, I’ll be laying my hopes on an automation to crosspost in a timely fashion.)

Anyway, this week on the podcast we talk about dark romance, chat about The Acolyte, and Adrie actually manages to find a series that truly gives me the ick.

Happy listening!

Pages and Prejudice Ep 4: It’s All Greek To Me

StitchLeave a comment

Last week, Adrie and I released a two hour long episode that was peak hater behavior… until the Kendrick/Drake beef escalated beyond all reasonable belief.

This week, we’re talking about Greek mythology in romance! On top of our regularly scheduled introspection about pop culture – I’m always here to digress and distract we do some lore drops and chat about some interesting aspects of Greek mythology adaptations. Most interesting, I feel? The conversation about how Demeter gets rewritten from a reasonably over protective mother grieving her (temporary) loss to… an abusive narcissist who wants to control Persephone and gets framed as a villain.

Pages and Prejudice Episode 2: Kissing Kin

StitchLeave a comment

Episode two of our podcast is up!

This week, Adrie lets me take the wheel on an expansive episode all about why we (broadly, but not entirely) like incest in romance and see it as a site not just for taboos but for a deep intimacy. I use my literature degree real hard here, finally figuring out what the abject is just in time to make a case for it in eroticizing incest.

Check out our podcast wherever you get podcasts and please, because I don’t have a social media presence, share with folks who like this stuff! (And even with the ones who hate it because they’ll learn some shit, I swear!)

We’ve done made a podcast

Why does no one know what a knot is anymore?

Adrie Rose and I have made a podcast for all things romance (and beyond – we’re going to talk about romance and eroticism IN pop culture, not just romance novels and erotic works)! This has been in the works for months and I’m so happy to do this with Adrie, one of the coolest and funniest people I know!
