Just some stories by Kris Ripper, read by the author. Probably badly. If you're a fan of my books, you may enjoy hearing some bonus stories and outtakes! If you want to listen blah-blah-free, join my Patreon, and no, you don't have to pay. You just have to login and be a member!
All the thanks to the folks on Patreon, without whom I would not be able to write these stories, let alone read them aloud (badly).

That One Time Preston Was Right (Book Boyfriend; Wade POV)
I love Wade and Jay so much. I'd write them a whole damn book. This story takes place some time after Book Boyfriend.
Content warnings: none
Spoilers score (1-5): ...2. It'll be more fun if you've read Book Boyfriend, but the spoilers are only for side characters, albeit side characters I spent (arguably too much) time writing.

Happiest Place on Earth (Oscar, Jack, and Evelyn from The Hate Project)
This story takes place sometime after The Hate Project.
Content warnings: Oscar's got anxiety! But just the day to day stuff in this story, no real peaks. A lot less internalized ableism than he had at the beginning of THP!
Spoilers score (1-5): 1 (Can't really think of any.)

Life the Maze (Roscoe and Tam from The Real Life Build)

Rage (Lucy)
This story features Lucy from SMU, and takes place, oh, sometime in the range of Unexpected Gifts, early on in the Scientific Method Universe.
Content warnings: Take caution with this one, folks. It's in no way graphic, but contains themes of sexual assault, stalking, home invasion, and misogyny.
Spoilers score (1-5): 0
SFW: There's no sex, but I would not listen at work or around kids. It's a bit raw.

Jaron (SMU; Untrue)
Mad, mad spoilers for Untrue. Absolutely do not listen if you haven't read that and are at all invested in experiencing the longer arc of the relationship between Will, Hugh, and Truman as it rolls out in the books.
SFW: Yes, in that there are no explicit sex scenes, though there is discussion of sexual topics, so it'll depend on your listening comfort.
Spoilers (1-5): 5! This is the most 5 any 5 could possibly be.
