About This Podcast

Katie and her husband Maxx Joy are Smutco Industries. Together, they create Cheap Smut, a podcast for people who would never let anyone see their Kindle library. Each week, Katie explains the plot of a cheap, smutty book ($4.99 or less) to Maxx, who has little to no idea what the book is about.
