Episode 29: "What Makes A Baby", featuring guest host Cory Silverberg

Cory Silverberg is a sexuality educator and author who recently published "What Makes A Baby," a gender inclusive book written for children on that ubiquitous all-too-uncomfortable subject of how babies are made. Cory's book and its colorful illustrations (by Fiona Smyth) provide an excellent introductory overview on the basic questions all kids ask during childhood. On this week, we are very privileged to have Cory, who will be discussing this book, as well as his fascinating career which is focused on sexual awareness and health. He has been a consultant for both the media and industry, and spent ten years supervising research for SexTV, an award winning, internationally syndicated documentary that covers human sexuality. Don't miss this very exciting episode featuring Cory Silverberg discussing his newest children's book!
