Aymann realizes he’s a little squeamish about the current birth control options for men. First he talks to writer Angela Anagnost-Repke, who’s been trying to convince her husband Brad to get a vasectomy. Then Dr. Paul Turek joins the show to explain what a vasectomy actually entails.

Huggins says he enjoys the experimental new pill and hopes more men will step up and shoulder more of the burden of birth control. Tell us what you think about this and other topics by leaving a voicemail at 805-626-8707 or emailing [email protected].
