Lesbian Historic Motif Podcast - Episode 351 - On the Shelf for September 2026 - Transcript
(Originally aired 2026/09/05)
Welcome to On the Shelf for September 2026.
It’s been quite a month! The first week of August I was in Orlando for the Golden Crown Literary Society conference, the last week was in Anaheim for the World Science Fiction Convention, and on top of that I started a much more intense physical therapy schedule for my broken arm that can eat up as much as 4 or 5 hours a day (though I backed off on it a little for the conferences).
Lesbian Historic Motif Podcast - Episode 350 – Love for Love’s Sake by Shannon Lippert - transcript
(Originally aired 2026/08/29)
I have never made a secret of the fact that I have a real thing about late 17th century French bisexual opera-singing swordswoman Julie d’Aubigny. But that also means that I have a high bar for fiction about her life. Shannon Lippert took on that challenge and delighted me with a story set towards the end of Julie’s life, during her all too brief period of mature happiness with the Marquise de Florensac.

(Originally aired 2026/07/18)
Welcome to On the Shelf for—well, this is a catch-up episode covering both June and July 2026, after my broken arm-related vacation. I’m back to typing with both hands now, though it’s a bit slower and more painful than usual and I may continue using my computer’s speech-to-text function sometimes to help out.

Lesbian Historic Motif Podcast - Episode 344 – When Did We Become Lesbians? (Reprise) - transcript
(Originally aired 2026/06/06)
I’m re-running some older episodes for the next month or two because I broke my arm, which interferes greatly with typing up extensive scripts. Today’s show, “When Did We Become Lesbians?” originally aired in 2017. I’ve done a lot of research since then, so if I were writing the episode anew, there would be things I’d add or change, but on the whole it holds up fairly well.
