About this listen

 Amanda and I are back, deep diving into romance and pop culture history with issue 1997 of Romantic Times Magazine. The cover reads Love, Lust, Laugh, and we’ve got some vintage books to talk about. Then we talk about what books we’re most looking forward to right now, and what we’re currently reading.
In two weeks we will be back with the ads & features, and you know a magazine from the 90s has the most excellent collection of cover art.
And if you like video episodes, this episode is available in video format for everyone on Sunday at our You Tube channel.

Major Trigger Warning in this episode: At 20:24 we have a brief conversation about an author featured in the magazine who was the victim of a family annihilation. Immediately following, the book I discuss contains mentions of child loss, infertility, and infidelity. Skip ahead 2 and a half minutes.
We also mentioned:
  • Amanda’s TBR Takedown board game: “Gamify Your TBR”
  • Greenland sharks!
  • Solved HaBO: “She Served as Head of Her Father’s Army”
  • Romance History with Steve Ammidown: “Lest We Forget” (trigger warning: family annihilation)
