This episode is a different format than we've done before. Although both my guest and I did read Cherie Dimaline's Empire of Wild, we barely spoke about the story itself. Not for any lack of merit on the side of the story--far from it. Empire of Wild... more

In this episode, my guest Joel, of the podcast Crip & Chronic, and I discuss Amanda LeDuc's Disfigured: On Fairy Tales, Disability, and Making Space (2020) and how it pertains to the subject of the last couple of episodes, Angela Carter's The Bloody ... more

In this two-part episode of Of Prurient Interest, my friends Victoria, Rose, and I discuss Anaïs Nin's 1954 novel, A Spy in the House of Love. We talk female sexuality, promiscuity, "race chasing", toxic masculinity, live nuns, and much more. Please ... more
Super informative about a realm I’ve never really considered before. Looking forward to next week’s episode!
If sexuality and obscenity interests you (or even if you’re just a big book and history nerd like me), I think you’ll enjoy this podcast. Kaelyn really knows what she’s talking about, and it was super informative while also being conversational and approachable. I’m looking forward to future episodes!
Super interesting content here. You don’t even have to be super into literature to get into this podcast. I really enjoyed the first episode, it made me feel like I was enjoying intellectual conversation with a friend. And as the title says, I felt smarter after having listened to it.
Haha, yes, J. here, the guest on the first couple episodes and hopefully again in the future. I love talking about the intersection of literature and life and how us autodidacts (and aren’t most of that when it comes to sexuality?) can learn about how people live and how to live ourselves.
