- Not great!
This show certainly isn’t about IVF, and it isn’t even really about parenting. Occasionally they talk about their child, but when they do it’s usually complaining about him. It’s two underemployed people talking about how expensive everything is and Doree recapping her tennis lessons and boohoo they don’t have weekend childcare(!!!!!) anymore.
It is boring, they talk too slow, and it’s no longer as advertised. Speaking of advertising- buckle up, there’s lots of it!

United States8 months ago - Doesn’t actually talk about IVF
For an IVF podcast, there’s actually very little IVF content. The hosts hear listener questions about IVF (sometimes) but often don’t even attempt to answer them (probably wise since I don’t think they are fertility experts) and just pose them out to their listener community. Other than that, it’s just meandering recaps of their week. I will say, I do like listening as I fall asleep — they have soothing voices!
Apple Podcasts1CanadaCheddarsUnited Statesa year ago - Not an IVF Podcast
I’m sorry, Doree, I like your F35 podcast (mostly), but I don’t like Matt, and I don’t like this podcast. You guys haven’t done IVF in years and you don’t talk about it anymore on the podcast. Anyone actually looking for IVF content and support (like me and probably many others) will be majorly disappointed at the random and unprofessional content. The episodes are not prepared or well thought out, the content is purposeless and meandering, there is neither point nor focus to the episodes, the c... more

Boldly going where no podcast has gone before, this Star Trek show is a warp-speed joyride through quirkiness and nerdiness. Beam me up for more intergalactic laughs!
