Welcome back to Talk Fiction, the podcast dedicated to entertainment media’s most overlooked underdogs: Fiction writers.

I’ve been gently needling today’s guest, the whip-smart and culturally attuned Beth Lisogorsky, for some time about starting a Romance themed podcast with me. Actually, I think she brought it up first and I refused to let it go. 😏Either way, I think you’ll appreciate the crisp co-host chemistry on this episode, wherein Beth (Front End Research/The Smarts) and I (Back End Production/The Sass) dig into our mutual obsession with the Romance genre.

Swoon as we verbally flirt-tackle everything from genre cliques to teen soaps, Audrey Hepburn to Alan Rickman, grinding to knotting, and lots more in between.

So, light some candles, pour yourself a froth-forward Nespresso, slip into something salacious, and lend us your ears.

Oh, and please do yourself a favor and subscribe to Beth’s Newsletters!

She’s as brilliant on the page as she is in the “studio.”
