My husband and I love the content of the podcast, but almost every episode there’s a weird moment where Vanessa belittles and/or talks over Xander that makes the both of us uncomfortable listening to it. Yes, she’s the expert and he’s the “regular guy,” but that’s exactly what makes his points...Read full review »

I’ve followed on instagram for a year but never made time to listen to the podcast. I didn’t know what I was missing! I love listening now. So many subjects, so easy to listen to. Very informative for me as a wife and a mother. Plus it keeps me entertained!

I’m a newish subscriber but now never miss an episode. I love how Vanessa and Xander approach all the s*x topics with such knowledge, experience and also humor. I love them!

Sensitive subjects presented in a sensitive and helpful way. I was looking forward to the next podcast. Thank you Vanessa and Xander.

I found out about this podcast from Armchair Expert with Dax Shepherd and have been binging episodes ever since! I’ve been with my now-husband since we were seventeen (we’re actually celebrating ten years this week!) so we had to learn everything together and we’ve learned so much more from this...Read full review »

You don't need to hear again how much you improve other people's lives. Or do you? Anyway, other than the obvious, I also love your playfulness and especially when the jokes get too good for you to resist just laughing for real. It's a joy to hear and adds credibility to your own...Read full review »

I heard about this pod from a Facebook group for one of my other favorite shows! Decided to give it a try and I haven’t had one regret at all. I typically listen to podcasts while I’m working and there’s some days I’ll listen for 8 solid hours. Many of your conversations/question topics have made...Read full review »

The information in this podcast is great but there are way too many ads. It started off with an ad or two, but the last few podcasts there are four or more embedded in the show. Sure it’s a free podcast but I want to listen to the hosts, not be continually sold to. It’s especially jarring when...Read full review »

I’ve been married for 9 years and have been having various issues in my marriage lately. This podcast has really helped me to communicate better with my spouse. I especially needed the resentment episode. Listening to this has improved my mental health. Thank you for all of your help and advise.

I found this podcast and Sex Talks (haven’t read YET, but very excited to do so) after hearing an interview with Vanessa on another podcast. I realized how much my partner and I lacked confidence talking about sex which is… unfortunate. Since listening, we have really enjoyed learning and playing...Read full review »

I found your Instagram first and loved your content as it was so relatable and honest. I introduced my husband to your insta account and then we started listening to your podcasts.

I kind of stumbled across this podcast and have been scrolling through previous episodes anytime I have free time. As someone who was raised to have a lot of shame related to sex this podcast has made me feel so much better about talking about sex with my partner.

Please don’t use my name if posting or mentioning this review. This podcast is so entertaining and informative. I stumbled upon this podcast looking for anything related to marriages and relationships and I was so happy to find pillow talks! I have often found myself laughing along with the...Read full review »

I love this podcast and how it normalizes women getting pleasure too! How did our society get like this? I’m so sad it took too many years to learn my body and what I like. I first starting following Vanessa on IG (pre Vanessa and Xander!) a few years ago but recently have been binging Pillow...Read full review »
BirchTreeFam via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/13/24
This podcast has been SO eyeopening and hilarious. Honestly, Vanessa and Xander make sex not a taboo topic and they make it what it should be! Fun! They answer the questions you don’t want to google, they help you feel normal about things that society will probably make you feel not normal about,...Read full review »

My husband and I love listening to this podcast together. It provides great conversation starters and has encouraged us to talk more about sex with each other and to try new things in bed. We really appreciate the great work Vanessa and Xander are doing!
Portland Chicken Mama via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/02/24
Really like their practicality in intimacy and physical intimacy. My wife and I enjoy a good amount of “upside down pineapple” and so the perspective from outside the LS is really helpful. We listen to lots of pineapple podcasts from pineapple people. So of course their blind spots are the...Read full review »

This show is fantastic! I’m a new therapist, and have only been in the field for a year. I’m super interested in couples work and have been delving into them, so having resources like these types of podcasts and books are SO helpful for better understanding the inner working of marriage/dating...Read full review »

Can't recommend V & X enough. I found them on IG just because someone I follow, liked their post and I am SO grateful. My husband and I have been struggling with our sex life since we got out of that "honeymoon phase" and not for a lack of enjoyment. We've been together since...Read full review »

Imagine having two of your best friends that sit down and just pour out smart advice every-time you need it. Vanessa and Xander are hilarious while giving thoughtful advice that every couple can put into practice to better partners for each other. Putting the tools and tips into practice is...Read full review »

The mental load episodes were so incredibly helpful because they were able to put into words what I was feeling but didn’t know how to explain to my husband. I had him listen to those and it has been life-changing for our relationship. I love how real and open Vanessa and Xander are and I am...Read full review »

I’d just like to start off by saying I’ve finally found a great, relatable podcast. I’ve been striving to reestablish the spark/connection with my wife. We’ve been together almost 20 years. Married for almost 14. I’ve been looking for a good podcast that I could relate to and share with my wife....Read full review »

I haphazardly came across the Pillow Talks podcast and gave it a listen about 3 months ago. I’ve been hooked ever since. I love the content and have learned so much from this great couple. They feel like friends that I haven’t met yet. I love how they take serious topics and break them down on...Read full review »

Great podcast, nice to have two perspectives. Although, sometimes there’s a liberal bent to it and spend too much time acquiescing about not speaking for non-binary people, but then V speaking for women (but not speaking for all women), X speaking for men (but not all men) and the obligatory...Read full review »

I have been healing from a chronic illness for nearly 10 years, and as a result it has been difficult for me to experience physical pleasure, much less have the desire for sex. I also struggled with unaddressed sexual trauma and all of this really impacted my romantic relationship. Recently I’ve...Read full review »

I have followed Xander and Vanessa on Insta for a while and decided to give the podcast a shot. I fell in love from the first episode I found as I was scrolling. I listened to their episode about being child free and felt so connected to them. It felt so validating to hear their raw opinions and...Read full review »

I found your Instagram a little while ago, and finally started listening to the podcast. Almost immediately I reached out to my spouse to have him start listening too. Our relationship isn’t bad, but it can always be better, and this is helping us be better. Thank you so much!
robinsonjackie39 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/17/24
“Pillow Talks” is my go-to for all things sex ed! Hosted by the fabulous Vanessa and Xander, every episode dives into juicy topics and serves up something new to learn. The hosts are a blast—fun, smart, and super relatable. They make even the trickiest subjects feel like a breeze. Whether you’re...Read full review »

I recently discovered your podcast and added a few episodes to a playlist for a 14 hour road trip.

We listened almost exclusively to you guys for...Read full review »

Thank you for sharing the content we all need, and all of the information we’re too shy to ask our friends.

I have become addicted to this podcast! I find myself in so many situations referencing pillow talk and recommending people follow because it’s so relatable, relevant and they put into words so many of my feelings. They’re amazing!

I’m a relatively new listener, but I love it and am enjoying the backlog of episodes. Vanessa and Xander are so real and authentic.

I started listening about 6 months ago when I was about 6 months post-partum. My hormones were in a whirlwind I had absolutely zero sex drive and it was really affecting my marriage.

To say Vanessa and Xander have helped me personally as well as my marriage isn’t enough.

It’s not easy! My husband also struggled with addiction in the past. So much stigma & bringing awareness to this gives hope for less stigma in the future. One day at a time! Stay strong & congrats on your sobriety journey.
