In this bonus episode, Hannah is joined LIVE by NHS GP & TV Presenter Dr Zoe Williams, who shares her experience of egg freezing and sperm donation. Dr Zoe discusses the lifestyle choices that can affect fertility, and why fertility decreases with age. Her and Hannah also talk about whether men should be more involved in the conversation around fertility, and why we should talk about fertility as part of sex education. Finally, they chat about Zoe’s decision to become a solo parent and what the next steps involve.

So I thought that I would treat you with another episode to celebrate podcasts. Also to celebrate, I thought I would give you some podcast recommendations

0:47.2

for other sex podcasts because I imagine if you're listening to this, you are interested in sex and sexuality and all

0:56.6

1:03.5

and Justin podcast. You may have heard MJ on doing it. Also, I have recorded an episode of Justin, which will be out soon. But if you want to get more of them, listen to their podcast.

And the two of them are just so thoughtful and kind and considerate and wise when it comes to sex and relationships and just how we feel in ourselves in general.

1:37.2

So definitely check out their podcast.

And I also want to recommend Sarah Pascoe's new podcast, Sex, Power and Money, which is the same

title as her new book. And it's just fascinating. She has some incredible guests. I listened to

the first episode, which is all about sex work. Just give it a listen. Seriously, you have to
