Bodice rippers: what are they? (Spoiler alert: they've mostly disappeared from the romance publishing landscape.) Where did they come from? (It's complicated and messy!) And why should you care? (So many reasons.) Let Candy, Angela, and Molly sweep you away on a rearing stallion and take you on a romp through a landscape filled with cinnabar caverns, feisty ingenues, and the hard-eyed, hard-mouthed men who (claim to) love them.
CONTENT NOTE: This episode contains discussions of sexual violence.
