Listen Later

Jon Waldman is a multi-time published author, journalist, marketing and communications professional and photographer. From an early age, Jon knew that he wanted to enter the world of the written word and has scribed articles for the likes of the Toronto Sun, Winnipeg Free Press, The Hockey News, Winnipeg Men Magazine, CBS Sports and several others over his near 20-year career.
In 2009, Jon published his first book, SLAM! Wrestling: Shocking Stories from the Squared Circle with Greg Oliver. This was quickly followed in 2011 by Got'em, Got'em, Need'em. In early 2015 his third book, He Shoots He Saves, was released, his third with ECW Press.
Jon's fourth book, "100 Things Jets Fans Should Know and Do Before They Die" released in 2015 with Triumph Books and has been his best seller thus far.
In 2021, Jon's fifth book, "Swimming Aimlessly", will release with Simon and Schuster's imprint, Tiller Press. Inspired by his TEDx Talk, the book takes a deep look at men and infertility and, in part, tells the story his family has experienced.
Listen to Jon as he discusses with Ellen and Jenn:
• His sport-loving Canadian background and the beginning of trying to start a family.
• Experiencing maca root and other natural remedies for fertility.
• Candidly dealing with mental health challenges as part of the infertility journey.
• Getting help and finding support.
• A surprisingly effective aid…with a wagging tail!
• The complicated intersection between religion and IVF.
• His awkwardly hilarious experience providing a sperm sample.
• Information on his new book, Swimming Aimlessly: One Man's Journey through Infertility and What We Can All Learn from It - coming out March 30, 2021!
