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.

A while back, Katie put the word out on Bluesky asking for book recs, and AS Adams said, "Hey, check this shit out!" and suggested their book "MILF: A Holiday Romance." We are grateful for their boldness, as this episode
A certain neurodivergent producer/husband has an affinity for truth in advertising, so it should come as no surprise that Katie had a blast telling Maxx all about My Billionaire Boss Is A Vampire by Kate McDarris. All th
