Amazing, expertly produced podcast

I’m not a podcast person, yet was entirely engrossed by this intriguing, well executed podcast. I think their success is largely due to the skilled work and care of the producers on the team, the associate producer in particular, who’s role was executed flawlessly.

story needs a trigger warning for mental health

strong story, well told. amazing the company kept him donating after the story broke. need more regulation. man himself has mental health issues, but seems to have kept working on improvement and holds a responsible position now. mostly, the AI industry needs better checks and balances. good book. can be full of triggers for those dealing with their own mental health issues.

Unethical Practices

Very well done. Actual people involved interviewed. It's like something horrible and you can't believe supposedly legitimate organizations that are involved in a health related process, that of artificial insemination, would be so unethical. Once you start listening you can't stop, you want it to get better but these sperm banks get more and more unethical as you continue to listen, and they get away with it. No regulation , No oversight, No consequences for what they do or don't do. Scary as hell.

Invaluable work Dov Fox

Such an important podcast, schizophrenia is a tragic condition. My parents' hearts have been broken by my brother's schizophrenia. This is one of many medical conditions not to be wished on any parent or child. I chose not to have children because of my brother's illness.

Great Podcast Terrible Listening experience

The podcast itself is fascinating. However the Audible app makes replaying an episode incredibly difficult. After falling asleep during episode three and finishing the entire podcast it took me a good 10 minutes of fighting with the app to get it to restart episode five, then it continued to skip to the end after every episode. Really wish this one was on Apple podcasts

Great thriller. Narrator read too quickly.

Love it. Turn speed down to 0.9 for a better experience. Otherwise, a wonderful nailbiter.
