That Time I got Drunk and Saved a Demon: Full Book
Episode Title: That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a DemonDescription: In this episode, the Romanty Roundtable dives into That Time I Got Drunk and Saved a Demon by Kimberly Lemming — a fast, fun, and ridiculous romantasy romp. The crew explores Cinnamon Hot Pepper’s journey from drunken spice farmer to unlikely demon-saving heroine. Filled with pirate hijinks, dragon transformations, dubious soups, and plenty of laughs, this tale delivers humor, steamy moments, and self-aware silliness. Expect hearty banter, sharp critiques, and more than a few detours into video games and soup metaphors.Key Topics Discussed:* Cinnamon’s Unlikely Adventure — Drunken night leads to demon drama: Cinnamon Hot Pepper stumbles into an unexpected quest after smacking a demon with a cinnamon stick, discovering her “goddess” is an undead witch enslaving demons.* Fallon the Dragon Demon — Demon ally with hidden powers: Cinnamon’s companion turns out to be a dragon demon, fiercely protective and increasingly enamored, adding steamy tension and pirate flair to their quest.* Pirate Escapades — From city destruction to high seas: After burning a city in a rage, Fallon and Cinnamon become pirates, gathering allies (a werewolf, snake demon, and tavern owner) for their final showdown.* Final Battle Against the Lich — Hero’s party clash and goddess defeat: The group battles the false goddess (a lich), Cinnamon smashes the last chalice, and Fallon’s dragon fury nearly destroys everything — until love saves the day.* Soup & Romance Tropes — Dubious consensual scenes stir debate: The crew critiques repetitive “soup” scenes (steamy moments) and the handling of dubious consent tropes, while reflecting on the book’s self-aware absurdity.* Bonus detours — Video games & ratings talk: Tangents include Clare Obscure Expedition 33 game reviews and musings on star ratings, highlighting the fun chaos of the podcast.Insights Based on Numbers* 200 pages, 15 chapters, 1 epilogue: A compact tale that barrels through plot points at breakneck speed.* 4 temples/chalices smashed: A video game-like progression that fuels the quest structure.* 3 months of island honeymoon: Marks the characters’ transition from chaos to peace, highlighting the shift from adventure to domesticity.* Average crew rating: 2.5 stars: Reflects enjoyment of the humor but criticism of repetitive tropes and consent issues.
