Heaving Bosoms

Hey HBs!!! Kenya Goree-Bell is here to recap the Netflix movie Really Love! Ooooh, an artist and a law student are falling in love in this moody indie film set in DC. And it's delicious!

Bonus Content: the glory of Michael Ealy, the artist mindset and struggle, rarefied air, waist beads, and the shenanigans that would go down if Kenya and Mel go to her Netflix Movie Premier together!

Make sure to check out The Kronic and the rest of the Mogul Series!

Lady Loves:

Mel: send your friends flowers. It doesn't have to be a romantic gesture!

Kenya: Call your friends and check on them! You can do a world of good and make people feel great just by showing you're thinking about them.

Hey HBs! Sarah Wendell is here to swoon and geek the hell out with Melody. Did you think a book that's grounded in minotaur hand jobs would be an amazing example of structural organization, labor rights, and include layered feminist commentary on society's obsession with the phallus? ...you did? OMG you're a genius. We did not. But you get to hear us break down every stunning moment in part 1 of Morning Glory Milking Farm by CM Nascosta! Plus, like, minotaur testicles, dirt coffee, and lots of MANual stimulation ;)

Bonus Content: podcast compliments, the endless possibilities at "Smart Bosoms Milking Farm," the hallmarks of good fantasy, tooth trauma when pregnant, Princessglitterhead on tik tok, complicated mom relationships, fetishes in fantasy cultures, and so much more!

Go follow Sarah on Twitter, Instagram, check out the amazing Smart Bitches, Trashy Books website, and go listen to her podcast!!

Sarah and Mel teamed up recently for Bonkers Romance where they discussed A Lady of Rooksgrave Manor!

In the lead up to our most hallowed holiday, St. Vincent's Day, we're releasing the episode where we were introduced to our favorite hero in the whole universe, Sebastian The Lord St. Vincent! This is part one, so buckle up for a wallflower, a marriage of convenience, and a first kiss! In the rain!

Bonus Content: Hiatus was so restful! (not), we would die and betray each other for St. Vincent, we're horrible, hypocritical St. Vincent apologists, what happens to the horses that you rent from inns?, Jack London's lasting legacy of traumatizing high schoolers, Erin realizes the plot of Pride and Prejudice via currency conversion, RAIN KISSES!, and so much more!

Lady Loves:

Erin: Chicken Nuggets. Seriously, they're for adults, too.

Melody: she reread Audre Lorde's A Burst of Light and Other Essays and she was struck once again by her self care quote: "Caring for myself is not self-indulgence, it is self-preservation, and that is an act of political warfare.” Remember that about reading romance!

Over Hiatus:

Melody talked about Beach Read (and cults) on Make Out Already Pod

Erin and Mel joined Sarah and Amanda on Smart Podcast Trashy Books to recap Toxic Desire by Robin Lovett!

Oh Hey HBs!

Nat and Erin are here with a M/M firefighter-chef romance. Which we really wanted to like. But unfortunately, it wasn't everything we wanted it to be. We're bringing you Melting Point by Kate Meader and it had so many things, and most of them were characters from other books.

Bonus content: shaking your THANG, #justiceforlombard, that one lone arm chair, is this how you take care of a concussion?, enthusiastic rimming (AGAIN!), and so much more.

Also we had an HB that offered to match our next $500 in donations through our Patreon fundraiser for Ukraine. Subscribe or upgrade your membership to get counted! Check it out on our PATREON!!

Hey HBs! It's time for our annual Patreon fundraiser! This year, because the need is so immediate, we're going to front a donation in anticipation of at least matching the amount we've raised in the past! This week, we're donating $1,000 to Razom Emergency Response, an organization with a proven track record in Ukraine who are providing medical supplies and training to civilians on the ground.

Ukraine is the most pressing emergency right now, but it's by no means the only refugee crisis. So, at the end of the month, we'll donate the balance of monies raised to World Central Kitchen, who provide meals on the sites of refugee, humanitarian, and climate crises worldwide.

Here are the details:

From March 1st - 31st, 2022 we are doubling and donating all new and increased Patreon pledges.

New Pledges get doubled. So if you sign up as a $5 patron, we donate $10. If you sign up as a $50 patron, we donate $100! If you sign up as an annual patron to get the 10% discount, we double the amount for the first month, without applying the discount.

Increased Pledges get doubled as if you're a new patron. So, if you increase from $15 to $20, we don't double the $5 increase, we double it as if you're a brand new patron. So an increase to $20 nets a $40 donation! Once again, if you increase that on an annual basis to get our 10% discount, we donate the first month's amount without applying the discount.

Here are more organizations to support Ukraine, compiled by Valarie Kaur.

And if you want to support gender-affirming treatment for trans kids in Texas, check out these non-profits, starting with the Transgender Education Network of Texas.
