  • I learned so much from this episode.

    I loved the episode with Sarah in Wanderland. I am bisexual and love that you addressed the misconceptions people have about that. I also learned so new terminology. It was interesting, educational and fun to listen to.

  • Interesting conversations

    I started listening when I saw they had an interview with my favorite author Elizabeth Stephens. And then I was hooked. Great guests topics and conversations. I really appreciate a podcast that talk smut in an intelligent and fascinating way.

    Now if you could interview Theodora Taylor or Regine Abel that would be awesome. Or Tessa Stone or Dreia Wells or (I’ll stop now)

    Thanks for a great podcast!
