I’m new to this show! I really enjoy it. This is my second listen & if I could take a shot every time I heard “and so forth,” I’d be dead! LOL

I love this show! Super educational AND entertaining at the same time. But they need to cover more than just mostly white/“Western” history and culture, or at least have some BIPOC guests. They missed a great opportunity to have a Black guest on the Dandyism episode since they kept referencing the Met Gala’s theme of Black Dandyism. Excellent show, just needs way more racial/ethnic/cultural diversity ❤️

I’ve listened to this podcast from the beginning and have enjoyed it, but often wish for less silliness, more actual information and less (unfunny) banter. (Turned off the episode with Eleanor Janega for these reasons.)

Such a great podcast, I have always enjoyed “every day life” history so it’s even better with a little scandalous scandals…. Always full of interesting topics of stuff I didn’t know I wanted to know about!

Kate is just the best ! I’ve watched all of her History Hit videos on YouTube (some more than twice), and they’re so fun and informative. Thanks for the splash of “naughtiness” in a sea of prudishness

Love this interesting podcast! You make everything so interesting Kate!

Both educational and entertaining. Lots of fun facts and good conversations.

This is an okay show, and they did an excellent companion show with my favorite podcast Cautionary Tales. It is heavy on the one-on-one interviews, so if you get someone with poor sound quality or subject matter the entire show drags. The Host’s voice is jarring and this is not recommended for evening listening.

This is the kind of podcast I’ve always wanted but never knew existed. So when I discovered it, I thought ‘wait a minute, could it be?!’ And now I know for sure, this everything I wanted in a history podcast and more. Along with other History Hit podcasts that are also amazing 🔥🔥

I discovered this podcast through the collaboration with Cautionary Tale but stayed for Kate Lister’s interesting anecdotes, intriguing interviews, wonderful guests, and sense of humor! This podcast is my guilty pleasure and my soothing therapist.

With what’s going on right now, this is the perfect diversion from all the lunacy coming out of Washington. Not for delicate ears.

After some prevalent history , the brunt of the episode was trending in dangerous territory regarding unhealthy weight and fat acceptance.

I absolutely love this pod and Kate Lister. The stories are intriguing, funny and poignant.

While the material can sometimes be very heavy, Dr Lister does an amazing job of bringing some levity and humor while ensuring the listener learns something new. One of my favorite podcasts, by far!

Great guests. Love Kate Lister!

If you like history, the kind you won’t find in most history books, this is your podcast. And Kate is a trip and a blast to listen to.

This is so fun to listen to. If you want to get away from what’s actually going on right now, I can highly recommend this podcast.

Good grief. This is what I have been looking for! Kate is the funniest host I’ve heard

Kate is absolutely hilarious! I love the wide range of fascinating topics and the variety of incredible guests featured on the show. Keep up the amazing work, Kate!

Kate brings a frivolity and curiosity to each topic she visits; she brings out the best in her guests - Great listen!

I have learned soooo much from Dr. Kate Lister over the years. This podcast was one of the first podcasts I got super into—I found it after reading Kate’s book The Curious History of Sex. Highly recommend this pod for anyone interested in history, sex & culture, or a combination of the two.

Wow.. just wow. I am so impressed by Kate and her team of producers to bring this smart, sexy, informed history of our chaotic weird sexy past. Thank you Kate!

My new favorite podcast! Kate Lister presents a huge range of really interesting topics - I learn something new every time I listen, even on things I know a lot about - and she is so quick witted and funny. Betwixt the Sheets is the best!

Kate is delightful to listen too. Funny, bubbly, smart…some of the topics don’t interest me but overall I love this podcast. I love how respectful Kate is to her guests and listens intensely. It’s a different type of podcast and as an American I could listen to all the lovely accents for days. I have learned so much! Keep up the good work.

This is just bad interviewing. I just wasted 30+ minutes listening to this all waiting for information that was promised at the beginning of the podcast only to finish the whole episode without having learned anything. Listen to “After Dark: Myths, Misdeeds and the Paranormal” for your history fix instead.

I have a lot of fun listening to this show and it’s wide range of topics. Kate is informed and funny. I get a hit when Elenor Janagot (spelling? ) and Kate have a giddy, saucy, and nerdy “girls chat.” I had some explaining to do when my Bluetooth accidentally synced to the company work truck and it was historical underwear playing.

This has become one of my favorite podcasts. I love history, and this podcast is unique and never dry. I turn to Kate when I need a good laugh. Thank you for putting this info out. I’ve learned a lot.

The enjoyment your pod gives my uncultured American self is great!! I truly love this podcast so much and it makes learning all this historical naughtiness a fun pastime. Thanks so much for what you do keep up the great work 😁

Whether you’re a history buff or just someone who loves a good story, “Betwixt the Sheets” will keep you hooked from start to finish. The production quality is excellent, and the hosts’ chemistry is undeniable, making it feel like you’re part of a lively conversation with friends. This podcast has quickly become a staple in my listening rotation, and I can’t recommend it highly enough!

Love listening to this podcast. Informative, interesting, with the twist of humor.

Look, this isn’t a kids podcast but some stupid nicotine pouch clearly marketed at young people. I can’t imagine you would approve it I asked you.

I absolutely love this podcast and how much detail each episode goes into each specific topic. My only complaint is that my book costs have gotten out of hand. Between Kates books and the great guests it makes me want all the books that are mentioned.

I love this podcast and love Kate even more. She tackles the issues we all wonder about and are afraid to ask. She’s even better on TV. Brava!

This show is my new obsession. I was never a very enthusiastic student of history, as it never seemed all that relevant to me and my daily life. But this podcast discusses all the history I was too embarrassed to ask in any of my classes, as well as a good deal of history I never knew I wanted to know more about! With a balance of cheeky humor and deep insight, host Kate Lister explores concepts of sex, gender, power, and social norms and expectations. In learning about these elements of the past I discover and understand more of where we are in this current moment in time. This podcast, at once titillating and educational, is just pure gold, and I recommend it every chance I get.

It could be done well, but done in a coarse, juvenile and intolerant (of men) manner.

The show does cover some interesting topics and has interesting guests but it’s also plump with plenty of passive aggressive misandry. But I guess that’s just the soup du jour these days, in this age of hypocrisy.

I love this show but when I was listening to a recent episode and your guest started talking about politics, I turned it off. If everyone could just keep their political opinions to themselves, the world could be a more enjoyable place.

I love KL’s books, never realized that she had a podcast. Devouring the back catalog now!

Truly excited to discover this insightful and historically-rich podcast. Brava, Kate! Thank you for sharing your objective views while keeping it totally real! Hugs, Jen from Jacksonville, FL

The subjects are interesting and well covered. I could listen to any of these topics for hours. I thrilled to see new episodes come out. I enjoy the host-guest interactions and the frank conversations. Even the most sensitive topics are handled respectfully. Keep up the great work! You are appreciated.

Dr. Kate Lister’s presentations of the very interesting aspects of humanity throughout the ages always gives me a sense of connection to those people and times. I feel as if I’ve traveled back in time to get a glimpse of the saucy side of life. Just can’t get enough of this all too entertaining, well written, and just the best podcast!

There are not enough heart emojis to express my love this Kate Lister’s podcast! ❤️ times a gazillion!

I enjoyed listening until this happened. Too bad. I no longer listen.

This podcast is simply fantastic - witty, informative, and oh so scandalous. Dr. Kate Lister is a rare gem of a host - expert knowledge, she’s super gracious, and utterly amusing. Kate’s "fair dues warning" before each show is something you don't want to miss. Listen and become obsessed!

One of the funniest and well researched, not to mention the many various topics of discussion make Betwixt one of the great History podcasts that are out there that are both informative and easy and a joy to listen too.

“We've recorded your vote for Betwixt The Sheets: The History of Sex, Scandal

This show is about sex. BUT it had so much history beyond that. The thing that drives the human race, the reason my parents had me, is not just compilation, it’s history. This podcast covers all of it up to the copulation and if you want to know more about the Aztecs, the tudors, or drag queens, you can really listen to this brilliant woman wax on and interview some amazing historians.

Love the host & adore how she makes all the stories almost come alive.

The combo of sex and history is brilliant. The show is witty and informative.

The Boudica episode had me rolling. This is a needed podcast and the host if wonderful and fun. Top drawer darling!
