Donating Sperm & Questions About A 96 km Hike

About this episode

I wonder if it's possible to donate sperm whilst doing a 96 km hike?


In Episode #218 of 'Musings' Juan and I discuss: our recent Instagram ad targeting us for sperm donation, our conjectures on why there is a shortage of sperm donors, how the process works and you might have unknown children showing up on your doorstep, what the general public might think of sperm donation, questions for Juan about his hike related to lying/nature/character/hardship and a demonstration of just how dark it can get out in the middle of the bush.


As always, we hope you enjoy. Mere Mortals out!
