Super Sperm Donors – America’s Underground Surrogacy Movement: Author Explains Her Journey

Originally broadcast on March 14, 2024

The family planning revolution has a new chapter and journalist Valerie Bauman is both documenting it and participating in it. She and others pursuing alternatives say they’re frustrated with fertility clinics because of the cost, what they call the discriminatory nature of the system and the lack of insurance coverage. Bauman explains how she met her sperm donor and why others like her say it makes sense for them.

Hosts Mark Masselli and Margaret Flinter interview Bauman about her upcoming book, “Inconceivable: Super Sperm Donors, Off-the-Grid Insemination, and Unconventional Family Planning.”
