Stacked Show

Our most Jamaican episode yet because we barely reign in our accents. *air horns* In this episode, we discuss the controversy surrounding the RITA Awards which, before the epic fallout of 2020, had only had 2 black winners in its nearly 40-year history. Strange. We also talk about Jamaican aphrodisiacs, robot sex, and what books won the hellscape of 2020. Don’t forget to check the show notes on stacked.show for books mentioned and be sure to follow us on Twitter and Instagram at @stackedshow. Of course, as always, listener discretion is advised.

In this episode, Jhen and Ann discuss romance author Beverly Jenkins, unassuming book covers, the horror in black joy, and one too many yonis. We also talk about our casting hopes for some of our favorite romance novel’s screen adaptations and Ann butchers the name of actor Yahya Abdul Mateen II MULTIPLE times but he cannot beat her ass…at least, not without negotiating a safe word first. As usual, there’s a detailed discussion on coitus so listener discretion is advised. And after combing through 5 hours of audio, we both have more book suggestions for you so be sure to check out the show notes on our podcast homepage stacked.show.
