I am 83 years old, and travel is more irksome than it was. The maxim, “Quit while you're ahead” has recently received a welcome boost, and I anticipate that this will be my last American tour. My swansong. My final bow. There'll be a Q & A at every event. And I'll be signing any or all of my 19 books, including The Genetic Book of the Dead, which will be just published. This will probably be your last opportunity to tell me how profoundly you disagree with everything I've written and said. Or the reverse if that is the case. Either way, I look forward to seeing you. ---------------------------------- In this episode, Richard Dawkins is taken on a tour of a sperm bank, where he tries to understand its workings while sharing interesting evolutionary explanations. ---------------------------------- Join Substack: https://richarddawkins.substack.com/

Jerry plays ‘Between The Ears of Boomer' to get his thoughts on the top topics of the day. We talked about the Mets adding JD Martinez as a DH, Kentucky losing to Oakland, the Rangers winning again last night. A caller wonders about Trevor Bauer's future. C-Lo returns for his final update of the day but first we talked about a sponsor on our stream called spermbank.com. C-Lo went around the NCAA tournament yesterday. The Moment of The Day involves Andrew Bogusch being on the call for the Nets. In the final segment of the show, Al did a Twitter poll asking if you play golf, guitar, both or neither. That got Boomer back into LIV Golf talk and how he will never go see that and he thinks the TV ratings are terrible.

Joining me on the show today is the amazing general supervisor of the Seattle Sperm Bank, Angelo Allard. He's here to tell us everything you need to know in order to pick the right sperm for you, what to expect from a sperm bank's supply and how to know you're getting a quality specimen.  Angelo started out doing diabetes research after college, but when he saw a posting for a sperm bank he applied just for the heck of it. When he started at Seattle Sperm Bank, he was only a lab tech. But a year and a half in, they gave him the opportunity to run the operations and compliance of the business, and he is now the general supervisor. This conversation was so informative and just plain fun. We got to talk about how hot Jane Fonda is, singing a cappella, and what it really takes to be a sperm donor. Angelo cares so much about what he does for the families that come to Seattle Sperm Bank and I learned so much from him – I know you will too!

Victoria has become the first state in Australia to open a free public egg and sperm bank. The facility is part of a suite a measures designed to overcome the cost barriers many people face in accessing fertility treatment to conceive a child. But one fertility expert has cast doubt over how the new bank will recruit from an already limited pool of donors, raising concerns it will compete with private clinics. - Виктория стала первым штатом в Австралии, открывшим бесплатный общественный банк яйцеклеток и спермы. Это учреждение является частью пакета мер, направленных на преодоление финансовых барьеров, с которыми сталкиваются многие люди при доступе к лечению бесплодия. Но один эксперт по фертильности усомнился в возможностях нового банка привлекать людей из и без того ограниченного пула доноров, высказывая опасения, что он будет конкурировать с частными клиниками.

Diana Thomas is the Founder and CEO of The World Egg and Sperm Bank. After having to find her own egg donor in the early 1990s, and successfully becoming pregnant, fertility specialists began approaching Diana asking for her help in finding egg donors for their own patients, at a time when only one other egg donor agency existed in the U.S. She quickly discovered that there was a desperate need for a company that understood empowering recipients with information about egg donors, and the emotional sensitivity to navigate through the process of involving another person in their reproductive life. Through her own personal experience, she created a company that catered to the needs of intended parents as well as brought the best quality of care to egg donors. For over 25 years, Diana's egg donor agency, that evolved into The World Egg and Sperm Bank, has matched thousands of donors and couples nationwide and internationally. In 2004, she was one of three partners to start the first “frozen” egg bank in the world. Since then, The World Egg and Sperm Bank has increased egg donor options by shipping vitrified (frozen) eggs and sperm to recipients' doctors around the globe, and as such, removed many geographic and emotional barriers for those who hope to one day have a child of their own. The World Egg and Sperm Bank is the only egg bank worldwide that focuses solely on egg and sperm donors, and the only bank that has full operational control in its own state of the art facility to manage all donor cycles, retrievals and egg and sperm freezing from one lab, and one location. This is a unique powerful benefit in managing quality control, and the data outcomes reflect the focus and efforts to continually improve pregnancy outcomes. Listen as Diana discusses with Ellen and Jenn: • After over 20 years of fertility treatments, working to find an egg donor on her own before egg donation was fully available. • Finding a potential donor, meeting her family, creating her own contract, and being in the room during the retrieval! • Finding out she only had a 12% chance of the embryo taking; transferring two and experiencing a disappearing twin. • How her son was one of the first 100 children born via egg donation. • Having triplets take, losing one, then delivering twins at 29 weeks. • How her second donor had complications getting pregnant and Diana was able to help her! • Finding ways to improve the egg donation process. • Being 100% open to allowing visitors to walk through their facility and see the process firsthand.
