Found the first episode tough to take—not as well thought out as I anticipated.
A chilled and interesting podcast. A pleasure to listen to ☺️
I am an African American woman and loved that your guest talked about the history of Sarah Barthè, and the obsession and hypersexualization of Black people as a means of appropriation and oppression. So refreshing. If only we were that informed on the intersectionality of sexuality and race on this side of the pond. Thank you for the episode!
Thoughtful and thought provoking! The hosts, guests and topics covered by this
Podcast really explore our relationships with our bodies, and those of other people. Will provoke laughter, tears and anger. 100% recommend.
I am a aspiring sexologist and I find this podcast very interesting and chock full of information.
I absolutely love listening to this podcast. On the one hand I can binge these podcasts as they are so funny and informative, so enjoyable to listen to. Then others I want to sit with and mull over because they bring up some really emotive topics that I want to process. Thank you for bringing a podcast that is so engaging and funny, yet authentic and genuinely helpful and applicable to real life, talking about topics that aren’t discussed enough!!
Such a great podcast, thoroughly enjoy listening to it. Interesting and challending topics. Thoroughly recommnend it.

It’s like listening to good friends open up to each other, it’s warm and funny - a refreshing look at women’s most intimate self for pleasure, and dismantling shame. Can’t wait for the next one!
