Learn About Surrogacy Through Podcasts
Podcasts offer a great way to pass the time, whether you’re commuting, working, relaxing or researching. There are literally thousands of podcasts on pretty much every topic from news, business, sports, health and, of course, our favorite, surrogacy! We did some research for you and found the best podcasts talking all things fertility and surrogacy.

“Stop. Sit. Surrogate”
Their description: “A mother and daughter podcast educating others on surrogacy from a surrogates point of view. And the point of view from the intended parents, children born from surrogacy, the agency, legal professionals and IVF doctors for the science behind it all. Together we have brought 8 beautiful children into this world and it's been an insane rollercoaster ride!
