The Man With 1000 Kids (Unpacking The Netflix Doc)

In this episode, Kristen and Erika unpack — gestures broadly — everything happening in the world — before ultimately discussing the new Netflix docuseries ‘The Man With 1000 Kids’ — which primarily tells the story of Jonathan Meijer, a Dutch sperm donor accused of fathering somewhere between 500 and 3,000 children via sperm donation, and defrauding vulnerable families in the Netherlands and around the world. Tune in to hear our thoughts on the documentary and much more!
