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.

  • Episode 119 - Morning Glory Milking Farm 24.06.2026 1h 17min
    For our season four opener, we are finally taking on a long-requested book: Morning Glory Milking Farm by C.M. Nascosta. Listeners have wanted to hear Katie lay this one on Maxx, and needless to say, he was not ready.Book DescriptionViolet is a typical, down-on-her-luck millennial: mid-twenties, over-educated and drowning in debt, on the verge of moving into her parents' basement. When a lifeline appears in the form of a very unconventional job in neighboring Cambric Creek, she has no choice but to grab at it with both hands.Morning Glory Farm offers full-time hours, full benefits, and generous pay with no experience needed . . . there's only one catch. The clientele is Grade A certified prime beef, with the manly, meaty endowments to match. Hands-on work with minotaurs isn't something Violet ever considered as a career option, but she's determined to turn the opportunity into a reversal of fortune.When a stern, deep-voiced client begins to specially request her for his sessions at the farm, maintaining her professionalism and keeping him out of her dreams is easier said than done. Violet is resolved to make a dent in her student loans and afford name-brand orange juice, and a one-sided crush on an out-of-her-league minotaur is not a part of her plan—unless her feelings aren't so one-sided after all.Triple T'sTRIGGERS: capitalism, xenophobia (by species), medical setting, collection and sale of bodily fluids, mentions of divorce (MMC), brief mention of blood drinking (vampiric side character,) graphic sexual contact in a professional setting.TROPES: F/M Cis/Het romance ft Human FMC and Minotaur MMC, slice of life, work romance (in a fucked up kinda way,) idiots to lovers?TITILLATIONS: extreme size difference, not a weird dick just…a lot of dick, manual stimulation, machine assisted stimulation, lube play, fluid play. FLUIDS (I can't stress this enough). ‘Breeding stocks’ and ‘good little cow’.So...What Are You Into?Katie: BackroomsMaxx: SevereanceBONUS CLIPS: Severance, S1E7, "Music and Dance Experience" and S2 finale scene, "Choreography and Merriment."(Clips are spoiler-free, but do contain context clues to the nature of the relationships between characters.)Author's WebsiteOur LinktreeMusic: "Storyime" by Maxx Joy ★ Support this podcast ★

The spice may be on the low end, but the passion is INTENSE!Book DescirptionLuminitaAs a woman in medieval Romania, the inability to control my fate quickly grew from annoyance to a festering wound.

Then I stumbled across a true mystery who eventually called me Draga, Beloved.AaronAfter seven thousand years of life, I thought I'd uncovered all of life's secrets.
