"After all, the characterization, plot, and thematic foreshadowing are all essential to the experience of Morton’s dad’s porno. Trust me."
Score: 5
Emma Dibdin • New York Times • Jun 22, 2020
"The British hosts’ deadpan, often horrified commentary on this singularly unsexy smut is liable to draw actual tears of laughter."

"Ever heard of “buttery finger-tops?” Or the phrase, “wet as a summer in Manchester?” This is the epitome of British humor, and you probably won’t find the answers on Urban Dictionary. So for a more informal sex education class riddled with hilariously awkward love-making scenes, take a seat and try not to laugh during these 40-minute podcast sessions."

"...read along, with hilarious and cringe-inducing results."

Rob Johnson • Robscene • Jul 29, 2017
"The crucial element here is that all the presenters of the podcast are British which means the trashy eroticism of the source material clashes excruciatingly with the shared embarrassment of the hosts...coupled with the unpredictable plot and array of odd characters ensures that this unconventional literary review remains fresh throughout."
