Sluts & Scholars is one of Cosmopolitan's "Hot Podcasts to Listen To." Nicoletta Heidegger is a licensed Marriage and Family Therapist (#110256) and Sexologist. She chats with folks from across sexuality, kink, and professional spectrums about desire, pleasure, shame, stigma and (of course) bodily functions. 

Combining irreverence and expertise, on the docket is anything remotely related to sexual, reproductive and bodily autonomy; from the indigenous menstrual practices of the Hupa Valley tribe, to beauty confidence advice from Dita von Teese,  anal sex pro tips from Jessica Drake, and Cyberstalking with Amber Heard. Join these slutty scholars as they help to make your sex smarter, and your smarts sexier.

Sarah Graham (intersex activist and addiction therapist) joins Nicoletta and Simone to talk about intersex means. You might not have heard the term before, but being intersex is as common as being a redhead! Sarah discusses the problematic nature of infant gender assignment surgery, how it feels to be lied to for years by your doctors and being a part of the coolest lesbian gang in London. Note: At the time of recording, Sarah’s preferred pronouns were she/her/hers. They now use they/them/theirs.
