Customer Reviews
Hilarious, relaxing and thought-provoking
I first listened to the Master of None episode when I was pregnant and literally cried; came away with an ‘i am strong’ mantra that helped me through the pregnancy. More recently, the Love is Blind episode was such a fun ride about an admittedly deep topic. I will be binging this podcast!
Love this podcast!
If you’re not listening to this podcast, you're missing out! The content is both educational AND entertaining; I always enjoy tuning in. Lori and Leila are fantastic podcast hosts and include some really great guest speakers, too!
Real talk about sex!
Finally a podcast with knowledgeable, funny women talking about sex and sexuality in a way that’s accessible and entertaining. Can’t wait to hear what they’re binging on next!
