Lust Through the Ages is the podcast where history takes off its corset.

I’m Williamaye Jones — editor, writer, and unapologetic book lover — here to read you the scandalous stories our ancestors tried to hide. Each week we’ll curl up with a chapter from classic erotica, then slip behind the curtain to explore the world that produced it: courtesans, censors, rumors, and whispers behind the walls.

Think of it as part book club, part history salon, and part playful confession. From Renaissance Venice to Georgian London (and more), these tales once shocked, amused, and delighted — and still have the power to make us laugh, sigh, and raise an eyebrow today.

Pour a glass of something decadent, get comfortable, and join me every Wednesday for Lust Through the Ages: erotic stories, one chapter at a time.
