Nerdy Romantics Podcast
Nerdy Romantics Podcast blends romance and nerd pop culture with our book, TV, and movie recs and reviews. While some focus solely on either romance or nerdy topics like sci-fi and superheroes, NRP combines the two, creating a niche for listeners who are fans of all these genres. Host Y. M. Nelson brings her own perspective as a romance author and superhero and Star Trek fan to the discussions.
We have a newsletter which includes shownotes, nerdy and romantic book recommendations, and first looks at Y. M. Nelson's stories. Subscribe at nerdyromanticspodcast.com
So if you like book boyfriends, HEAs, Star Trek, Marvel and DC Comics, and fantasy books, then this podcast is for you!
