Hello! Here is this month’s edition of Answer Us Back, full of your feedback on AMTs old and new – mostly pretty new. On today’s menu:

  • Olly Mann himself has a change of heart about Elf On The Shelf since AMT392.
  • Laura found a variety pack of stock, as yearned for by Olly in AMT407 – although is two flavours enough to count as ‘variety’?
  • Several people wrote in to chip in on AMT412‘s discussion of people with your same name using your email address; here we hear from Margaret and Daniel.
  • After hearing AMT411‘s question from Charlie from Canberra whose mother had lately found out she was the biological child of a prolific sperm donor and thus has 600+ siblings, we heard from many of you reflecting upon your similar experiences of finding you were the child of a sperm donor, or your parent learning that they were. David, Breanne and Jo share some remarkable responses.

    • If you’ve been storing thoughts about AMTs 1-412, send them to us for future episodes of Answer Us Back. And as always, send in your questions, in voicenote or written form to [email protected], for all new AMT413 which will be in your podfeed 24 December 2025.
