This was my recovery month from the summer, so I didn’t read much, but I’m really proud of the reading I did do.

Sephie and I talk about how the culture in the kink world not only supports but encourages continuing to learn and try new things. Where the predominant message in the vanilla world is...not that. We talk about ways to incorporate learning into the vanilla bedroom.

It's not as simple as handing your book to a partner and getting exactly what you expected. There are a ton of pitfalls and missteps that can occur. We talk through a strategy to help you communicate with the person you plan to explore with.

Time to share all the books I read in November. I’m low key entering my ARC (Advanced Reader Copy) era, so I talk about some books that weren’t out when we recorded OR are coming out in 2025! So exciting!

We look back on how Jayce Reads Romance as a podcast came into being. It was a longer process than I’ve let on. Michael joins us to share how he supported this journey.
