In this episode, Dr. JJ and Dr. Domi dive into a flu outbreak among military trainees tied to relaxed vaccine mandates, the deadly heat waves scorching Europe, and an earthquake in Venezuela — all through the lens of climate change and policy failures. Then they shift gears into personal territory: Dr. JJ recounts attending a "sperm-picking party" for a friend pursuing single motherhood, sparking a wide-ranging conversation about sperm and egg donation, donor diversity, and the surprisingly detailed (and sometimes unsettling) process behind it. The hosts get candid about their own choices to remain childfree, reflecting on career demands, personality fit, and what parenthood really requires. They close out with pop culture recommendations — the show Best Medicine and Olivia Wilde's new film The Invite — plus a wry take on the underwhelming buzz around the country's upcoming 250th anniversary celebration.
Disclaimer: Dr. JJ and Dr. Domi are doctors, but not your doctors — please consult your own physician for medical advice.
