“This podcast is about sex, not love. Love is connecting with others, whereas the episodes here focus on porn, sex addiction, sex education etc. I wish the description of the podcast better reflected the content.”

“I listened to so much true crime, and I didn’t want a mum podcast or anything too heavy, this is somewhere in the middle. I needed a break and this is it. Thank you.”

“An insightful podcast that has left me more open-minded and knowledgeable about society’s relationship and perception of drugs. Really enjoyable and thought- provoking. Impressive of the BBC to step up and find an accessible and relatable host.”

“Finally a podcast about drugs that isn’t just slapping everyone’s face with guilt, but also don’t say that doing drugs can’t be dangerous”

“Despite a scathing put down of the host from ‘drug snob’ Kris Cristoff, this is a remarkable break-through for the BBC. Jacob Hawley must have dabbled (my guess is cannabis, coke & maybe a little crack) but little else, but this is fine for a ‘host’. It’s the interviewees who are most...”Read full review »

“Liked this a lot. Am an avid podcast listener and I plowed through this in no time. It was interesting, informative, educational and well presented. Funny too of course! I wanted a bit more detail to some elements but that would have changed the vibe of the programme.”

“The idea/goal behind this podcast (other than clearly using this podcast as a boost for Hawley’s career), is of good intent however Jacob Hawley asks poor questions and despite putting himself across as a person familiar and literate in drugs and drug culture, proves himself to be very nieve and...”Read full review »

“Excellent podcast. Popped up on my recommendation list on BBC Sounds & after just finishing the eighth episode I’m now hoping that another series is commissioned.
Balanced views, well researched & not afraid to be controversial.”

“I don’t usually bother writing reviews for podcasts, but feel compelled to do so with this one.
Well informed and unbiased, this podcast opens up a topic that is rarely talked about. It goes beyond the scaremongering and the statistics of drug taking, and attempts to take away the taboo. As a...”Read full review »

“The school boy humour and relies on (yet ridicules) the “edginess” of drugs for the lads. The serious side is listenable and interesting but it is really pro-drugs and accepting of drugs being part of everyday life. I don’t think he has the life experience or perspective needed to make the...”Read full review »

“A truly special podcast. Taking a totally different approach on the subject whilst still tackling it head on and from all angles. Honest, witty and non-judgemental makes Jacob the perfect host.
As a mother of a teenager I think this kind of discussion and education is invaluable for us all.”

For a more balanced report it would be useful to include accounts from women. The notion that this is exclusively done by gay men and groups is not...”Read full review »
