Matt and Doree's Eggcellent Adventure: An IVF Journey

Ep 452: The Real MVP

Season 2

We attempt to investigate a Mary Tyler Moore mystery and discuss Thanksgiving's surprise MVP. Then a listener question sends Doree into an existential spiral, and we share our thoughts on another listener's surrogate dilemma. Plus, by listener request, we cast the movie of this podcast.


Doree has a new podcast! Too Much Money is the podcast that dives deep into the weird, wild, wasteful stories of people who spend their money in completely ridiculous ways. Listen on Apple PodcastsSpotify, or wherever you get your podcasts.
