Molly Hawkey is an actor, writer, comedian and host of the podcast SpermCast. In this episode, Katie and Molly talk about the decision to become single mothers by choice, our processes to become pregnant, and what it's been like to go through this experience publicly as podcast hosts. Molly is hilarious and open and has taught the SMC community so much about fertility and conception, miscarriage and pregnancy. I am so grateful that Molly was willing to share her time and her wisdom with us on the show!

In episode 7 of the podcast I meet Molly Hawkey.    Molly is an American actress and comedian. She is also the creator of the podcast Spermcast, documenting her search for a sperm donor in order to have a baby solo.    In this episode we discuss:  - An overview of Mollys own fertility journey to date  - Why Molly started her podcast and how it has helped her - The difficulties of dating when you want a baby - The benefits of talking about your situation with friends and family (or in Mollys case an entire podcast population!) - How our reality is not well represented in films - Whether we are realistic about what we are looking for, or if it is a bit of a fantasy - Being supported by friends and family on the trying to conceive journey - Being happy and hopeful about the situation, whilst still dreaming about the fantasy version - How each decision seems harder in the moment   and much more!   Molly actually has some super exciting news that she is 7 weeks pregnant following her latest fertility treatment. (This episode was recorded quite a few weeks ago, so we don't discuss this)  You can hear about this latest news as well as her entire journey leading up to this point on Spermcast. Head over and check it out (once you've listened to this episode obviously!!)    I have also been a guest on Spermcast, so if you haven't had a listen, the episode is called Molly, Mel and The Stork and I.   You can follow Molly on Instagram

Jessica is the only person who has never seen Game of Thrones and meanwhile, Dana posted on social media wishing people Happy GOT day to those who celebrate.  Thanks to a listener, we rant and wonder about why people have shared social media and email accounts with their significant others.  Perhaps they should share a toilet seat too.  Dana tries her best in life, but seems to strike out hard when it comes to taking Lyft  What is wrong with Jessica and Dana that they can't keep a debit card in their wallet instead of in their "pocket." The ladies want to know why people can't pronounce very common words properly.  Dana is obsessed with the instagram page @historycoolkids and after hearing her tell the story of Peter Freuchen, we now know why.  Jessica tells Dana what she has learned about survival from Bear Grylls, but Dana isn't worried since she will have a 10 gallon bucket of mac 'n cheese with a 100 year shelf life when the zombie apocalypse happens.  Why hasn't Dana seen the 'Shape of Water'?!  Raves this week include an airborne animal rescue and a podcast you won't want want to miss sharing a friend's journey of trying to get pregnant via a donor.  Pilots N Paws - https://www.pilotsnpaws.org/ Spermcast - https://spermcast.libsyn.com/

Molly Hawkey joins an intoxicated Adam Hooper, As we recap season 1 of her podcast, known as Spermcast (coincidently the same name as this episode) in which we highlight weighing up the option to first choose a sperm donor, managing finances, we even talk about the Australian version of Married at first sight and how Molly was also approached about doing a reality TV show. We then move on to speed into season 2, where we speak about the witches, before Adam's red wine takes a kick and we see him deliver a few hard truths to her donors Zach and Alex and then also questioning Dr Callan, how dare he... It's fair to say this episode sounded a lot different in my head while recording to what I found it be while editing it oops.

DAILY YOKE Picking a sperm donor is relatively common place especially for those choosing single motherhood, but egg donation is rarely discussed or talked about. Sperm or egg shopping can be similar to online dating and feel like a daunting task to navigate the system. There are more resources than ever to support those using third-party reproduction, such as the Donor Sibling Registry (DSR) created by Wendy Kramer. The DSR website assists the individuals who donated their own DNA, conceived via sperm, egg or embryo donation, or born from donor-reproduction that are seeking mutually desired contact with others whom they share genetic ties with. Another support group and community that provides assistance is called, We Are Egg Donors (WAED) founded by egg donors: Raquel Cool and Claire Burns. The WAED website offers women who donate their eggs support during treatment, provides clinic accountability, and honest judgment-free conversations about egg donation. Molly Hawkey, a comedian, photographer, and actress in Los Angeles started a podcast called Spermcast to explore and find a sperm donor. Molly froze her eggs around her 37th birthday to delay parenthood with the right person, but after several dead-end relationships she is not sure that her ideal partner exists. Now at almost 40, she does not want to rush into getting married and plans to have a baby on her own. Molly is on the quest to find the perfect sperm donor and venture down the path of single motherhood by choice instead. Wendy Burch is an Emmy Award-winning television journalist, reporter, and news anchor for KTLA in Los Angeles. She covered thousands of stories, but felt like she neglected to let her own personal story unfold until Wendy's biological clock alarm sounded on her 40th birthday. After several rounds of IVF,  injections, fertility drugs, acupuncture not resulting in a pregnancy, after much hesitation Wendy decided her best option was to use an egg donor. She thought it would be dishonest not to tell the truth to her fans and viewers about how she got pregnant, so she turned the news cameras on herself.  Wendy explains what made her decide to change her path to pregnancy using a donor egg. Have you donated your eggs or signed-up to be an egg donor? Take this quick survey and help volunteer to share your experience with San Francisco State University and Generations Ahead research. Do you have a child conceived via egg donor?

Welcome to SpermCast with Molly Hawkey! In this little intro you'll get the rundown of what you can expect from the show. Should I just tell you right here? Fine! I want a baby. The only problem is I'm 39, single, and not exactly ready for motherhood. So I'm on a quest - a quest for a sperm donor, and a quest for some personal growth. Each week you'll hear interviews with potential donors, but I'll also seek guidance from the pros: financial advisors, tarot card readers...whatever it takes. By the end of this series, if all goes according to plan, I'll find my donor and inseminate myself. Join me for the journey! See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
