Mae Martin is hysterically intelligent!

One of the best comedy albums I've ever heard. 10 stars😂 Hopefully, they will do another show or album soon!

It’s Mae Martin, so obviously it’s good.

Not sure what else to say, I’ve never consumed any media that Mae Martin was involved in that I didn’t love. It’s Mae, so it’s good.

Mae will guide you around parts of your brain you didn’t know existed

She wants to hold your hand. Let her. See what she has to show you.

Made my commute super awesome

I watched the fictional show (sort of autobiographical of Mae Martin)Feel Good recently, and it was cool. Decided to listen to this and it was amazing. I'm a social worker that treats substance use disorders and I'm considering playing some of this for patients. Or at least highly recommending it. All other parts were also amazing and in line with some of my thoughts on sexuality.

Mae is a master and I want more audio content

This is now 4 years old and though I imagine even how Mae talks about themselves and gender and sexuality has evolved since 2019 everything here is still brilliant to listen to and enjoy.

Frank, funny, sad, informative

A quick and easy introduction to the politics of sex and addiction, with personal anecdotes and the warm humour of Mae Martin.

If you are familiar with Mae Martin’s work then you may recognise some of the jokes and stories, but this didn’t detract from my overall enjoyment.

The recording quality does change between the intro to each chapter and the chapter proper, which is quite annoying; but the content is funny, informative and thought-provoking.
