Meet your hosts, Claire and Blythe, as we discuss our new devotion to romance novels and invite you on our journey of discovering all we can about sexy books and our own desires. In this episode, we talk about how and why we became interested in romance novels, what our history is with sexy smut, and what we're hoping to get out of this podcast.
There are a couple of audio skips in this one - very minor, but please bear with us while we get used to this whole podcasting thing. We also mentioned our favorite romance novel bookstore, The Ripped Bodice in Culver City, but the name got cut out!
