A Very Merry Gay Christmas

Les Talk About It

Episode 4 of 5 The Holiday Special

Sheena and Tamara chat about a very gay family that is quite loosely linked to Christmas carols.

Have a wonderful festive season

About The Hosts

Sheena comes from a media background and in 2014 she started The Lesbian Review, a website dedicated to reviewing the best lesbian books and movies. In 2016 A podcast channel seemed like a natural progression and so she started The Lesbian Talkshow.

Sheena discovered lesbian fiction in her late teens and it helped her with her coming out process, something for which she will always be grateful.

Tamara is a marketing professional and has branched out into design and photography. Her natural love for research and learning meant that she was the perfect podcast partner when Sheena wanted to start Les Talk About It. (Well, that and the fact that Tamara is married to Sheena.)

Driven by Suzanne Falter

Book Clips

Welcome to Book Clips, the mini podcast where authors and narrators give you a taste of a book with a short snippet.

In this episode we hear a reading from Driven by Suzanne Falter

Synopsis

Who says you can't find the love of your life while you're getting your tire fixed?
Even IF your boss is actively trying to close her garage?
Driven is the oldest woman-owned garage in Oakland - and the pride of the lesbian community. At least, it is until the uber-competitive former race car driver Mindy Rose shows up and opens her own garage, complete with chair massages and a sushi bar.

Mindy's out to destroy Driven, a fact that galls her good-hearted, and very ethical Irish assistant Kate. This is just reinforced when Kate has an emergency blow out, and is forced to go into Driven for a repair. Instantly, she finds herself drawn to the tall, tantalizing co-owner Lizzy.
That's when things get ... well ... complicated. Especially because Kate is an undocumented worker who seriously needs her job.
Soon Kate finds herself hatching a secret scheme to save Driven, while falling hard for Lizzy. Yet, Lizzy has no idea she's part of the Mindy's nasty operation. Or even that Mindy is out to get her.
Can sweet Kate and passionate Lizzy finally find the love they've been looking for forever? Or will Mindy find out and bring them and Driven down - and get Kate deported in the process?
And when is Kate going to tell Lizzy who she actually is?
It's just the beginning of the wild ride that is the Oaktown Girls series.

Mistletoe Mishap by Siri Caldwell

Book Clips

Welcome to Book Clips, the mini podcast where authors and narrators give you a taste of a book with a short snippet. In this episode we hear the author reading an excerpt from Mistletoe Mishap by Siri Caldwell.

Synopsis

On the first day of Christmas, my true love gave me a kiss...on the cheek.

On the second day, she gave me a cup of coffee. (Actually, I shared hers as we drove to work.)

On the third day, I told her she's still as hot as when we first fell in love all those years ago. (What? Are women not supposed to call each other hot?)

On the fourth day, I dared her to kiss me for real.

On the fifth day, the dare began to get out of hand...

It all adds up when two scientists rekindle the spark in this lesbian holiday romance.
