QUESTIONS FROM LISTENERS

  • How are you feeling about the How Was That for You episodes and do you feel they help the subjects sink in for you?

  • Does Mia ever want to jump in with her own questions for guests?

  • How often does Hannah stick to the questions Mia has preferred versus following up on things that the guests have said and going off on interesting sex nerdy tangents?

  • Are there any guests that Hannah hadn't heard of until Mia suggested them?

  • Does having Mia onboard as a creative producer help make things smoother, less stressful, easier for Hannah to do, when she's only working part time? Do you think you would have been able to have kept doing the podcast post maternity leave without Mia?

  • I absolutely love Doing It's "the sex and relationships podcast was sex has never been so nerdy" tagline. How did you come up with that?

  • Do you either of you have a dream guests that you haven't managed to get on as a guest yet, but would really like to?

  • Hannah has been coming into the studio in the evenings for some podcast recordings while Dan is at home with Rowan because of time zones and working part time. How does Hannah feel about work/life boundaries shifting more since coming back to work after maternity leave?

  • Would you ever go back to recording episodes of Doing It in person with guests who're in London or does virtual recording give more flexibility?

  • Most surprising/insightful thing you've learned this season?

  • Ever thought a guest's opinion was totally wrong?

  • Are you interested in making a podcast more parenting focused, like the YouTube channel has?

  • I'm someone who's on the ace spectrum, but tends to be the higher sex drive partner in a relationship. The episode with Cody made me wonder how you deal with biased/one-sided opinions from guests. I feel as if there was a brief mention that asexuality is about attraction, not drive. And then the discussion went on with the assumption that ace people don't ever want sex or are never the ones to whom sex is important. I'm wondering if there's any behind the scenes discussions of this, including whether the Chantel episode was deliberately juxtaposed with that point of view.

  • How to find partners to have sex with without dating apps, or other people interfering with your dating life?

  • How do you know you're ready for a baby and have that conversation with your partner?

  • Are you curious to explore any new kinks?
