I got this from @audibleuk without paying much attention to what it was about. My heart sank when I actually read the blurb. It sounded like a bunch of straight people talking about their sex lives. Hot Mic is not what I expected at all. The episodes consist of a series of stand-up comedy gigs where people from all genders, sexual orientations and religions share their experiences of first love, sex in all shapes and forms and relationships. Many of the podcasts were hilarious, raw and touching and completely relatable. I enjoyed every episode of Hot Mic as it took me by surprise.
