Would you pretend to have a sick sister to win on The Circle because Tolani did
May 13, 2022 05:00 - 30 minutesToday’s episode is a mixed bag: we talk about everything from Doctor Who (and the news that Ncuti Gatwa is the newest Doctor!) to Tolani’s stint on The Circle to men leaving us for dead in the gym. It wouldn’t be a 10/10 episode if there wasn’t some Selling Sunset discourse, so of course we talk about the long-awaited, Christine-less reunion and Maya's infamous shocked face too.

Sex Myths, The Orgasm Gap and The Principles of Pleasure
April 15, 2022 05:00 - 30 minutesIf, like us, your sex education at school wasn’t great, you’ll probably relate to today’s episode. We chat about new documentary Principles of Pleasure and all of the sex myths we were led to believe at a young age. Did you know the hymen doesn’t “break” during penetrative sex? Did you know only know a quarter of women have orgasms during penetrative sex? We also try (and miserably fail) to label the vagina and constantly call the labia a “libia”. We can only apologise.

Sex Education 3, Stranger Things 4, The Witcher 2 and Phil Wang
July 30, 2021 08:00 - 43 minutesAs this season of 10/10 Would Recommend draws to a close, we thought it would be churlish not to at least give a cursory nod to some of the smaller, unknown shows coming to Netflix in the last half of 2021.

Alexandre Aja on Oxygen and the new wave of incredible foreign language films
May 21, 2021 08:00 - 37 minutesThere was a time when anything with subtitles was considered far too intellectual and posh for mainstream consumption - but thanks in part to the meteoric rise in the fantastic Scandi-Noir genre, we now think nothing of settling down and applying a bit more concentration.
