  • The bible of sex education!!

    I ran a sexual health org at my college and did a lot of research on my own to make sure I was helping to educate people properly and start a good conversation. This podcast was and still is my holy grail! I’m from an abstinence only state so having this information relayed in such a fun and relatable format is so relaxing and helps me break through the societal stigma I still hold on to parts of. bravo!!

  • Wonderful and informative podcast!

    This is a fantastic podcast! Put a lot of focus on the disability community relation to sex and dating.

    Suggested topics for future shows:

    Dating and sexuality from this perspective of someone who is Low Vision, blind, deafblind, deaf-hard of hearing.

    And maybe an episode on Lingerie.
