    To scores of people seeking a sperm donor, #9623 was sold as the perfect biological specimen: gifted athlete, music prodigy and neuroscience PhD with movie-star looks, a genius IQ and spotless bill of health. But it was all a lie. Dov Fox’s original hit series blew the lid off a multibillion dollar industry behind the creation of hundreds of thousands of babies every year. In this explosive next chapter, Fox examines the profoundly personal impact these revelations have on the people at the heart of it: the parents who were deceived, the children living with the fallout, and the donor himself. Now they must reckon with his bid at redemption and what it means for their painfully uncertain future. The thrilling conclusion of the 9623 odyssey unravels our deeply vulnerable relationships – when the ones we count on the most let us down the hardest. It’s a haunting tale of human resilience, the fragility of family, and what it takes to forgive the unforgivable.

a moral dilemma

I wish that they had spent more time addressing the inability of the donor to admit his error.

I was, however, especially moved by the vulnerability and risk that this parent took

The deeper dive

What a great follow up to season 1. Getting to know more and learn that, like everyone, Chris is not 1 dimensional. “Stephanie” is brave and the dialogue between everyone here is thought provoking as well as inspirational. What will you bring next, Dov Fox?

Excellent

Oh, I was very impressed by the interviewer and his subjects. The mother and the donor, Chris, responded in an exceedingly intelligent manner, the organization, the music, and the story couldn’t be better.

fantastic follow up

I listened to the 1st part and loved it but was angry at Cris for the deceitfulness. Since part 1, I have watched other documentaries. I think one thing people don't realize is that schizophrenia is a disease just like alcoholism drug addiction, diabetes, arthritis, cancer, and many more. Some are just more accepted. Yes, Cris was wrong for not disclosing his disease. But like the mother said, how long does he have to pay the price? I have lost a daughter she was 24 and had medical needs. One of those needs was bipolar. It was not the one that took her from me. I do feel for all of the parents who have lost a child or who is going through this. 💔

What a fantastic conclusion to a story!

This delves into the meat of stigma surrounding mental health, a moral quandary, and the weight of that that this guy carried with him day in and day out. There certainly was some opposition originally in my feelings about this case, but it shifted when I realized just how much this guy went through over a choice he made when he was a young adult.

Finally finished

Meh

Too much about Chris and his feelings

There was so much that could have been done on this topic especially from a person who does medical research and it felt like a gossip column story from TMZ
Meh

Went on Too Long

Interesting subject, which dragged and dragged. Much candid talk between the Donor and parents of children born with half of his damaged genetics, which went nowhere, no resolve. Donor, who is mentally ill with schizophrenia had his reasons and excuses with which no parent or even biological child could possibly reason with. It is my opinion this podcast would've packed more punch in a much edited format.
