Happy Easter everyone! Christ has died, christ is risen, christ will come again...but it probably won't be this book that does it for him. This week we found ourselves on the weirdest side of easter when we read Planet Oster: Fertility Fusion by J.L. Logosz and Vera Valentine, a book about pastel space bunnies in space. Join us as we discuss glowing egg babies, how not to communicate in a relationship and some very surprising holes. The book and our conversation contain sexually explicit co...
We time-traveled! That's the totally reasonable and real explanation for our missing episode last week. I mean...this week because to us this week is last week and your last week is our next week, wait...no...that's not right. Anyway! We apologize for the gap. Traveling and sickness and Mac's judginess caused it. This-ish week we read Claimings, Tails and Other Alien Artifacts by Lyn Gala. A person who shares our affinity for overlong titles, but that's where the similarities end. Thi...
Daylight savings has arrived but we're not out of the cold just yet, so we thought we'd yeet(i) the winter season with an episode we recorded in the depths of it. Let's wave goodbye to Dani's crappy mic and to my (Mac's) sad dark sad's mood that rears it's little bitter head in this episode. Summer cometh, friends! We read Slippery When Yeti by Tana Stone, a book that plays the perfect cozy romance tune with weirdly specific details and kind of bland personalities. Join us as we discuss truff...
Friends! We did it! We're finally talking about a book that all three of us fell head over butts for. This week we read The Maleficent Faerie by Rebecca F. Kenney. A retelling of Sleeping Beauty which, by our memories, is a story about some fairies making a cake and also a young girl being kissed awake by a strange man? Classic stuff! The version that Kenney has graced us with left us all a little bit in awe. You should actually read it. Join us as we discuss all of the times this book hit ...
Hello friends! This week we read She Came From the Swamp by Darva Green, a sapphic swamp monster romance. A Slavic swamp monster romance to be exact. A sapphic, Slavic swamp monster romance. A book with so much potential and also so much Taylor Swift. Join us as we discuss ways to describe breasts, what exactly the best offering is for a hundreds year old swamp spirit, and labia and all of their wonderful diversity! The book and our conversation contain sexually explicit content! DM u...
Okay, hear me out, what if, as a country, we all agree that Valentine's day is only for kids? Like let's let this day die after the glory years when you got to make your own mailboxes and give away tiny cards and terrible candy. Where crushes were had and hearts were crushed. Not convinced? I can guarantee that this book will make you never have any romantic feelings around this time of year ever again. We read Come to Cupid by G. Eilsel where a cupid named...Q abducts and convinces a woman t...
Hey, friends! We've missed you! We are back with an episode full of all kinds of surprises. This week we read The Loch Ness Monster by Siggy Shade. Join us as we talk about dino/dino adjacent tongue play, "mammary intercourse", and (I am not joking) literal cum fountains. And of course we ask the age old question "can freshwater trout be eaten as sashimi?" The book and our conversation contain sexually explicit content! DM us to tell us about your raw fish expertise or email us at otdd69@gm...
Friends, this week's book was a doozie. We read Kidnapped By The Krampus by Emily Shore and we have some FEELINGS about it. Join us as we discuss this fever dream of a book as well as how not to write BDSM, the importance of writing consent even in ridiculous fiction, and some incredibly confusing holiday themed analogies. The book and our conversation contain explicit sexual content! This book also contains scenes with nonconsensual sexual interaction, and we discuss that in the epis...
Valentine's day, smalentine's day. Thanksgiving is the new holiday of love and romance. This week we read two books, Back for Seconds by J.L. Logosz and Vera Valentine and Full Sack by Layla Fae, and nothing could have prepared us for what we found. Let's just say, we'll all be looking at our Thanksgiving tables a little differently this year. Happy Thanksgiving, Friends! The book and our conversation contain explicit sexual content! Add us to your guest list on Instagram or email us at ...
This week we read Muscles and Monsters by Ashley Bennett and boy do we have some opinions. Join us as we discuss the boundary between monster and animal, Tegan and her absolutely punchable "Wolf Daddy", and why Dani can't get behind the primal kink. Check out the book here! The book and our conversation contain explicit sexual content! Chase us through the forests of Instagram or email us at otdd69@gmail.com with questions, comments, or suggestions for our next read! Music Credits: Intro...
We're back with another alien book! This time we crossed time and galaxies to learn a whole lot about...you guessed it! Farming! It's I Married A Lizardman by Regine Abel. Come with us on this journey as we discuss a surprisingly decent virginity scene, interspecies genetics and the depressing legacy of our puritanical forefathers. This episode also includes a very special guest, it's Ashley's chair! Creakin' and crackin' the whole time like an overeager ghost. We apologize. Ch...
To celebrate the reason for the season, we're going into the cornfield to read about sexy scarecrows (and pumpkinheads) and the ladies who love them. We read three holiday novellas: Hayseed, The Watcher and Burn For Jack to prep for whatever can happen this Halloween season! Join us spooky bois as we discuss vegetalia (that's vegetable-based genitalia), a big city girl and her inexplicable disdain for pie, and the ways supernatural strawmen come to life for the women they love! As always, ...
Is it a coincidence that all three of us were terrified of The X-Files when we were younger and now we read alien smut in our free time? As a graduate of a single psych 101 course twelve years ago, I think I'm pretty well qualified to say, it almost certainly signifies something-or-rather. One thing is for sure, whether you fear alien abduction or lust after it, there's an alien book for you! Full disclosure, we had this plan for an elaborate categorization of the alien genre, and we may come back to it someday, but we didn't fully commit and it ended up a bit messy, and this episode reflects it. Please forgive us as we stumble along in these first couple of episodes. It's a journey, a learning journey....a learney. If you're trying to get WILD, take a shot every time we say "palate cleanser!"But actually, for health reasons, please don't do that.But please DO send us your recommendations for alien books you've loved or giggled about! We'd love to hear from you!Follow us on InstagramEmail us at otdd69@gmail.com with questions, comments, or suggestions for our next read!The book and our conversation contain 18+ content!Intro/outro music created by: https://www.youtube.com/@deepseacurrent
Who's got red hair, can never remember the word for feet, and has got some serious daddy issues? This week we're talking about The Sea Witch by Rebecca F. Kenney! A retelling of the Little Mermaid, but in this version Eric is finally exposed as the creepy knob he is and Ariel actually has a personality! Come listen to us talk about soup, the crappy sex education we grew up with, and of course tentacles! Check out the book here! Follow us on Instagram Email us at otdd69@gmail.com with ques...
Have you ever wanted to know more about the three strangers you've only recently heard of?! Well have we got the perfect ten minute episode for you! We talk about how we met and where the heck the name of the podcast came from. Spoiler alert: it was inspired by Dani's husband.
Who needs Duolingo when you've got a magical pool of alien blood? This week we're discussing Ursa Dax's Alien Tyrant: A SciFi Alien Romance (Fated Mates of the Sea Sand Warlords Book 1). We're talking the ins and outs of alien abduction including how much sunscreen you should bring and if water is really that important to human survival. Check out the book here! https://www.goodreads.com/en/book/show/58677557 The book and our conversation contain 18+ content!
One of the things that I appreciate most about romance novels, is their ability to leave no stone unturned when it comes to turning all of our childhood stories into outrageous smut. This week we read Three Wicked Bears by Cassia Briar, a Goldilocks retelling that gets real dark (though not in an incestuous way, thank satan.) Join us as we discuss the classic reverse harem tropes including: "clothes trying on montage", "dance club with secret sex room" and "all the men have one single persona...
