As a sex therapist, I can't recommend "Sluts and Scholars" enough. The host is incredibly kind, thoughtful, and completely non-judgmental, creating a safe space to explore all aspects of sexuality. Every time I listen, I learn something new and gain fresh insights that I can bring into my own practice. Whether you're a professional in the field or just curious about the topics they cover, this podcast offers valuable perspectives and knowledge in a warm, welcoming way. It's truly a must-listen!

Nicoletta is always so positive. Love the show. I’ve learned so much.

I really get a lot out of the variety of conversations on this podcast

Love the array of topics. So nice to have a Sex positive show to listen to. Nicoletta is so knowledgeable on every topic. I never miss an episode.

I LOVE this podcast, I’ve been listening since the very beginning.

There are only two sexes (male and female). Anyone who thinks otherwise has a mental defect.

Always engaging, entertaining, and informative. Learn something every week when I listen.

I adore how this show promotes science and inclusivity being able to coexist. I learn so much every time I listen

“Minor attraction” is …. This is the most ignorant thing I’ve ever heard of. I’m very open minded but I’m also glued to reality. The reality is this podcast is supporting pedophilia. As we continue to desensitize this society, pedophilia, the darkest of dark, is making its way through. No parent, no woman, no man, no one in their right state of mind would be accepting of another man or woman being attracted to a child. Being attracted to a child is already breaking boundaries as there is absolutely no room for consent. And as we support and accept these terms and this energy that people carry of pedophilia, they have less of an incentive to heal and get real help. Because, well, soon nothing will be wrong with them and this will become the new normal. And here we move into a continuously trauma based society. There is nothing healthy about following trends of this type of thing. It’s wrong, it’s common sense, and they need help. But they need to know that it’s not healthy and it’s not natural. It’s a really terrible path we’re headed and this podcast is part of the problem.

The patriarchy when they see this misguided statement “don’t you threaten me with a good time” - using queer sex as an insult is not ok. Peg your lovers, overthrow the patriarchy, and don’t use taboo sexual practices as insults. Unless of course, you are trying to pleasure the patriarchy? But I doubt that was your intention.

I adore this show. It’s sciences based, but also inclusive.

The best

Feels like an appropriation of eastern religion by a bunch of bored white people. It also annoys me when she talks about how therapy can’t do what this “embodied” work does; there are so many types of therapy, not just CBT.

Love how Nicoletta puts the focus on the guests and does such a great job of getting the most informative guests and getting the best from them.

You guys rock! Simple and easy, by far some of the most honest, real talk and fun. Even when exploring sensitive subjects you guys just have a nice blend of cheeky and conscious content. Keep it coming please.

Such a wide range of interesting topics! Has been so helpful to me!!

I have been telling everyone about this podcast. It’s fun and covers so many great topics. Thanks for the wonderful content.

Not to be weird - but I could listen to Nicoletta’s voice all day long. Aside from that, she’s brilliant and brings on fascinating guests with amazing insight and unique perspectives. Absolutely add this to your “must listen” list. You’ll be hooked.

Nicoletta has an amazing podcast with cool and kinky information. I learn a lot listening to her and she has the best guest stars!

Sluts and Scholars is so refreshing. Nicoletta is so bright and engaging, and approaches everything with openness and expertise.

Love this podcast. Nicoletta is brilliant!

Nicoletta and her expertise is fascinating to say the least. She is so light hearted, educated and thoughtful in her information. I love listening to her on my drives and have learned so so much. Sluts

This podcast is phenomenal, and so enlightening!! Episode 174 with Ellie - she’s amazing. Keep doing what you’re doing!!

I love your podcast. They are so fun , chill and knowledgeable.

Absolutely worth the subscription. Nicoletta is so knowledgeable, smart, fun, and open minded!

This podcast provided useful information presented in a friendly atmosphere. I wanted to give it 4.5 but given the option of only 4 or 5 I opted for five.

The production could be better cause there’s a lot of echo, but it’s still a great podcast.

Nicoletta is freaking hilarious and I so appreciate the knowledge she brings to these episodes and the incredible guests who are a part of her show. It’s sometimes challenging to find sex positive podcasts that are also fun and informative and this podcast checks all of those boxes so well! Thank you for all you do for sex positive people like me!

Nicoletta is awesome & I love the premise of the show. Her guests & topics are super interesting.

Can’t recommend this podcast enough! Nicoletta is VERY cool, smart, and knows a lot about sex. I love listening and hearing where she leads her guests. I wish I could hang out with her all the time. Nicoletta, thank you for teaching us and giving voice to those who deserve to be heard! EXCELLENT SHOW!

Nicoletta is just so smart, funny and loving... this podcast is educational and sexy at the same time, love it! Definitely give it a try, you won't regret it!

I have been married for 40 years and love looking at sex so much differently

Informative, fun and sexy! Love when the Nicoletta gets the chance to drop a little deeper with her guests.

Seriously so good. Incredibly informative and so hilarious

Nicoletta is fun, informative, and, dare I say, sexy when it comes to educating us about all things sex. She does this not only through her own education, but also by bringing new and exciting guests to the table each week. I’ve been an avid listener from the beginning, but Nicoletta truly finds her groove once she is able to get intimate with her guests, something that was a struggle with two co-hosts in the podcast’s earlier days. Each week is better than the last!

I absolutely love this podcast! It’s incredibly entertaining and informative!

Thank you Nicoletta for sharing your knowledge and charisma with all of us, especially in these crazy times. Can’t wait for the next one 🔥

One of the freshest podcasts out there. Look forward to each time it drops. Can't wait for the next one!

This podcast is packed with great information and entertaining guests! I’d recommend this to anyone who wants to enrich their sex and relationships with affirming, pleasure positive knowledge!

I love how this podcast combines the knowledge of highly respected professionals with the authentic and comfortable space for the guests and host be themselves, let down their hair and share sides of themselves they might not on other podcasts! Be prepared to walk away with great info, some good laughs, and maybe a little bit of arousal ;)

Demystifying sex in every way! This is something our society needs. Great podcast!

Love Nicoletta’s vibes and flow of the podcast. She knows her stuff and does such a great job balancing giving us valuable information and education as well being entertaining at the same time!!!! Forever subscriber here.

Nicoletta is a rockstar! Love the topics and the wide variety of guests she has on!

Been listening for a long time and it always makes me laugh on my drive home. I love that they discuss “taboo” questions we are all wondering. But what happened to Simone? She was hilarious. Hope she comes back!

There is a ton of great information here and the topics are great if you can get past Simone interrupting. Just let the guest tell their story and get a thought out FFS. Also I am appalled that she did not know what shedding was when discussing HSV.

I looove the content and guests that they have on but please stop interrupting the guests!!

Thank you Nicoletta & Simone! I am an MFT working on an AASECT certification and I love love love your podcast. I recommend S&S to friends, colleagues & clients. I am continually pumped for the inclusion and intersectionality on your podcast. Its SO NECESSARY. Nic H

Hey ladies! I have been listening like crazy at work since yesterday I just wanted to say I love the podcast! Y’all are hilarious and I have learned a lot already!! Thank y’all can’t wait to hear more!! 💜

I love podcasts like Bawdy Storytelling, but I am also a huge science nerd so Sluts and Scholars is the perfect marriage between discussing sexuality and research. I love the dynamic between Simone and Nicoletta is so honest and open. Thank you for educating me on such a vast array of topics from sexuality, health, LGBTQ issues, sex work, sex positivity… the list goes on. Definitely worth a listen!

I have listened to every episode and I keep coming back! The dynamic between Simone and Nicoletta is so endearing and they have immense dedication to their listeners! I have learned so much from this podcast about my own sexuality and how to bring sex positivity into more aspects of my life.
