Bonus - 🇬🇧 “It’s not a fucking salad!1!”: A 2021 special with Keguro Macharia
Happy New Year darling listeners! We wanted to start 2021, a New Year in most parts of the world, on a positive note, so we decided to record a bonus episode with one of our absolute faves on the Twitterverse, the one and only 🖤Keguro Macharia🖤, lover of Flowers🌺 and Romance Novels💝, hater of Cabbage🥬.
We talk romance, Harold Robbins💦, diaspora, Bridgerton, couscous, diasporic injera, Jane Austen, Mills & Boon, freedom, thinking across different geo-histories, shared vernacular and so much more!
We highly recommend you - in his own words - to "buy, borrow, steal, gift, read, teach, and think" with his incredible work: Frottage: Frictions of Intimacy across the Black Diaspora. And for the Romance Novel n00bs (and Mariam) we have an extensive guide to reading romance novels in the show notes below.
