Welcome back to dockyfiles.

I'm Paige.

And I'm Natalie.

You know the gig at the top of every episode.

We tell you what to watch for next week's

episode, and we will be watching Take Care of Maya available on Netflix. And without further ado,

let's talk about this week's docu. So a question I have for everyone out there is what happens when one sperm donor fathers hundreds or even thousands of children across the globe and no one can stop him.

That's basically what Netflix's Man with a Thousand Kids documentary explores.

It's this true story of how loopholes in the fertility system allowed one man, Jonathan, to potentially reshape the genetic landscape

for generations to come. And it is disturbing and shocking. It's completely reckless and unethical behavior that disproportionately affects the people that are

pregnant by the sperm and the subsequent children.

That's something we heard throughout the entire documentary is how affected the mothers were.

The mothers were the ones who had to come up against Jonathan in legal battle.

And he even addresses the mothers.

Like that's the phrase that I heard throughout, the mothers, the mothers.

And obviously there are fathers and other people involved that are affected by what Jonathan's doing. But yeah, it affects a lot of

people. And I think it's like more than just some weird guy doing some thing to spread his

seed. It's like a story of a system failure. It shows how fragmented

the global fertility industry is and how clinics operate country by country. And there's

no international tracking of what sperm is used where and by whom.

We learned some very concerning news that Jonathan Jacob Meyer is very likely not the only

man doing this.
