It would drop like a stone, we’d declare a victory, and that’s what we’ve done in the past, and that’s what we expected to happen here. You know, we’ve, we’ve done things like this before, and really, what we expected was for it to hit the top-10 charts, for us to chart somewhere about where we wound up topping off, at about 4, and then that would be it. JUSTIN YOUNG: Quite simply, because we don’t have that many fans. You told your audience to buy it and give it great reviews.īROOKE GLADSTONE: So how do we know that this success isn’t just a closed loop, where the authors are the buyers and that’s just it?

JUSTIN YOUNG: I had just heard about Mike McGrady’s passing, who did the “Naked Came the Stranger” hoax, and I’m like, well, we can do exactly this. Young says he took inspiration from “Naked Came the Stranger.”
The book is the brainchild of Brian Brushwood and Justin Young, the hosts of the NSFW show, Podcast. It’s spent 25 weeks on the New York Times bestseller list and has spawned its own parody, “The Diamond Club,” which is a crowd-sourced e-book that’s gotten as high as #4 on iTunes top 10 paid e-books list. “Ah,” I groan.īROOKE GLADSTONE: That’s an excerpt from “50 Shades of Grey.” It’s not a parody. He gently nips his way to my hip bone, then across my belly to my other hip bone.
He grabs my hips with both his hands and runs his tongue around my navel. WOMAN/READING: He eases me toward the bed, until I feel it behind my knees.
