We're back, and we've got some reflections on the state of the pod and some life updates (spoiler: decluttering has occurred).

We revisit one of our favorite episodes this week. Doree and Matt ring in the new year with a very special guest: their friend Marc, who's also using science to have a baby with his husband, Chris. Doree and Matt talk to Marc about selecting an egg donor and a surrogate, how much everything costs ($$$$), what it's like when things don't work out the way you planned, and how to stay sane during the process.

We contemplate the nature of unsolicited advice, and hear from listeners about struggling to have a second child, "birth goals," and a fertility clinic in Ohio offering a seemingly great deal.
