S2E7 - 5000 Nights of Obsession - Drethi Anis

Author: Trigger Warning Romance: A Dark Romance Podcast May 15, 2023 Duration: 1:07:07

First off, welcome back, Trigger Tribe! We are so excited to be recording once more. We’ve missed y’all as well as each other during our hiatus, but baby, we’re back! We hope to maintain a more regular recording schedule over the summer while Tori is out of class. This week we did an impulse recording on Drethi Anis’s 5,000 Nights of Obsession. We both read it separately as it just came out, and we loved it so much we just had to talk about it, so why not record the conversation? I do want to make one correction for a mistake in the recording. We continually use sociopath instead of psychopath when we’re discussing Axel, and the correct term is psychopath. Lots of well researched reasons for that, but we made a mistake so I wanted to address it. Now, on to the episode!

P.S: We apologize for the weird echo on Tori's side of the recording, we've been having some technical difficulties with her microphone and are hoping to have it all fixed for the next episode.

Intro and Outro music:

We Ascend Instrumental by Michael Briguglio


Dive into the shadowy corners of love stories with Trigger Warning Romance. This podcast is an unflinching deep-dive into the books and narrative tropes that live within the dark romance genre, where themes often venture into morally complex and explicitly taboo territory. Each episode is a candid conversation, dissecting the compelling, sometimes uncomfortable, elements that define these stories-from power dynamics and specific triggers to the controversial plot devices that keep readers hooked. We approach every discussion without judgment, fostering a space for curious adults to explore these narratives thoughtfully. You’ll hear detailed breakdowns of popular and obscure titles, analysis of why certain dark tropes resonate, and frank acknowledgments of content that requires a strong constitution. This is a podcast for listeners who understand that romance isn't always light, and that exploring the darker facets of desire and fiction requires a mature, nuanced perspective. Prepare for thoughtful, explicit, and deeply engaging talks that respect the genre and its audience. Remember, you must be at least 18 to listen.
