EP 473: Score (feat. Kennedy Ryan & Sam)

from Decisions, Decisions · host The Black Effect Podcast Network and iHeartPodcasts

This episode of Decisions, Decisions features Kennedy Ryan, the New York Times and USA Today bestselling romance author, as she joins Mandii B and Weezy for a conversation about the rise of her career, the real-life love story behind her books, and the passion that drives her writing. Kennedy opens up about meeting her husband Sam, balancing marriage with her success, and how his support helped her navigate life on the road and the growing demand for her work. The episode dives into the world of romance novels, the misconceptions around “smut,” memorable scenes from her books that even left Sam reacting in real time, and the moments that made her realize just how massive her audience had become. They also discuss the business side of publishing, bidding wars, commitment to the craft, adding sexuality and vulnerability into storytelling, second-chance romances, and the inspiration behind some of her most talked-about storylines, before closing out with a wild “Reactionary” segment that pushes the conversation even further. “No Holes Barred: A Dual Manifesto Of Sexual Exploration And Power” w/ Tempest X!Link Follow the hosts on social media Weezy @Weezywtf & Mandii B @Fullcourtpumps and follow the Decisions Decisions pagesInstagram @_decisionsdecisionsDon't forget to tag #decisionsdecisions or @ us to let us know what you think of this week's episode!Want more?
