The Feral Bookshelf: a podcast where we talk about smut

In this episode we're talking all things gay! Sapphic smut, men loving men, g!p, enby rep, and more! Straights are not allowed this month ( for legal reasons this is a joke, we love everyone ).

We're chatting again about our current reads, what tropes are giving us life, and singing the praises of our new favorite book/reading tracking app, PageBound (this is not an ad, we just really like it!)

The Smut Heathens invite a few very special guests to talk about the ubiqitious and delightful series - Ice Planet Barbarians by Ruby Dixon! Find Robyn Valentine at @atiredwitch anywhere on social media! CWs include abduction/alien abduction, mating/coupling under duress, discussion of PDFs and grooming in a book (that was NOT enjoyed, spoiler alert!)

join the smut heathens this week as they soapbox about all their special interests....these minisodes are now dubbed "feralsodes" because we're incapable of keeping these short!

it's your (our) favorite kind of episode! it's LIVE READ time! Sara 2 found a good one (good is used loosely, as always). Listen in for a wild wild ride......

we're chatting about what we're reading and HOW we're reading. Telling capitalism to shove it up their butts, so to speak! Kitty tells us how to commit ethical crimes with our devices.

we all love Bridgerton....but what if we made it better? And made the MMCs monsters? We're talking books with regency vibes but the MMCs have tails, knots, fur, or turn into stones!

Each month in our minisodes this season we'll be chatting about what we're reading and any bookish drama, news, updates, gossip, or interesting topics that are whetting our appetities or griding our gears! Since we're feral, you can expect these episodes to range in length from 30 minutes to almost an hour. Sorry, we like to yap!

welcome to a new season! housekeeping and discussing what books we think you should read this year! no major trigger warning for this episode: tropes discussed include cock warming, ass knotting, water sports, ddlg, and age gap. sara 2 is visited by a spooky orb while talking about her book lol
