Hi, everyone. Welcome to a very special bonus episode of the Culture Study podcast on the new show off campus. With me today, let's introduce ourselves. So there's me, Anne Helen Peterson, your host. Who else is here? I'm Margaret H. Willison. I'm your specifically, I'm your bonus host. Yeah, that's a good way to put it.

Some kids have a bonus mom. Like, in fact, one of the things I refer to them as myself as a bonus adult of the girls.

Nice. I'm Melody Rowell. I produce this show.

And how do you feel about hockey romances, Melody?

I've read exactly one, and that was heated rivalry after I watched the show.

I just have no interest in hockey as a concept.

Interesting.

And I don't, I just, I haven't read that many sports romances in general.

You read baseball romance.

I've read a couple, but not like, not like the genre of, it's different.

Dang it.

I meant to, I have a hat.

There's a really great romance company that's called 831 Press, and they put out, like, very chic little novellas, and they also have really great merch, including, like, favorite trope baseball caps.

And my baseball cap is fake relationship.

Also, Melody is one of hers also shared bed, right Melody?

They have that one.

Only one bed.

Yeah.

But that can't be like you can't sell me the book based on only one bed.

It needs to be a surprise.

Okay.

Hold on.
