By Any Means - Episode 2 - Russellpalooza

In the early 2000s, the advent of DNA test kits opens the Pandora’s Box of conception secrets. As the identities of many previously anonymous sperm donors are suddenly revealed, their biological children’s lives are upended upon learning the truth about how they’d been conceived.  Amelia speaks to Darren, a medical student who’d donated his sperm anonymously in the 1980s, and Guy, a man who found out in adulthood he had been conceived with anonymous donor sperm, following Victoria’s decision to become the first state in Australia to establish a registry for donor-conceived children.  Every episode of By Any Means is available exclusively on the LiSTNR app. You can listen to Episode 3 now.  If you want to get in touch email [email protected] See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
