    Dr Wali Priyanka is great. I listened to her last podcast with Sean Hayes. Very informative but Hari doesn’t like cats. 4 stars instead of 5.

  • Quite an informative podcast with lively hosts, but constantly beeping out "adult words" becomes annoying. I mean, this podcast probably isn't aimed at children as listeners so perhaps you can just do away with the beeps? We are all adults here anyway. Besides, I worry that once you start discussing sexual health, the whole podcast might sound like a European ambulance with the non-stop and unnecessary beeping.
