The Lunatics, Craig & Alix, are doing IVF. And in regular Lunatic fashion, they can't shut up about it! They found that during their journey there wasn’t enough support for men affected by infertility, so they're trying to change that by having their own open and VERY honest conversations. This podcast offers a unique view on the Infertility experience from both the Male & Female perspective and encourages men to join in on the discussion. In each episode they’ll discuss their experience, tell stories, argue and have some laughs along the way. Because if you’re not laughing, you’re crying and they've done enough of that lately to last a lifetime.

The Lunatics are back (again) after a physical and mental health break and are here to fill you in on the happenings since Alix was released from hospital for the second time. Having not recorded for awhile means they have even more things to banter about and excuses to take them completely off topic. Alix gives up her title of Top Dog but announces she would be the Ultimate Survivor while Craig takes over her usual role as the nervous wreck in the house. There's a deep discussion on mental health broken by Alix sharing WAY too much personal information (as per usual). Though they disagree on Craig's coping mechanisms, they prove that they can get through the hard times together as the crazy team that they are.

play

05/10/21 • 37 min

The Lunatics aren't their usual loud and crazy selves as they explain how the dreaded two week wait has taken a toll on them. Recorded the day before they receive the results from their embryo transfer, they talk about the stress, worry and anxiety that's overtaken them while waiting on the phone call from the clinic. Craig reveals he's been keeping some of his thoughts and feelings to himself, while Alix expresses her fears and concerns about everything going wrong. It's a somewhat tense and emotional episode that really gives you an idea as to the mental anguish that infertility can cause.

In this week's episode we get an honest and hilarious look into what happens when a couple is forced to spend even more time together as the Lunatics laugh their way through the stress of the past month and its various setbacks. They discuss how life has been since Craig unexpectedly lost his job and how a very hormonal Alix has dealt with the change. Craig attempts to break the record of how many different accents a person can do during a podcast episode while Alix empathizes with elephants. It's a humorous and stilly episode topped off with an unhealthy amount of bickering & insults.

The Lunatics expose their souls in this heartbreaking episode as they take you through the process of the egg retrieval and the days that followed. They discuss the physical, mental & emotional pain in detail but in regular Lunatic fashion, they are able to laugh through the tears. It's a very raw & emotional look into how they handled (or mishandled) a very stressful situation and how they navigated their way through it as individuals and as a couple.

It's the big day for The Lunatics as they finally undergo their first embryo transfer after seven months of waiting. Stress levels and nerves are on high alert as they prepare themselves for the receiving of extremely special cargo through the wonder of science. Craig does his best to explain the miraculous process while Alix proves how very little she knows about her body. They explore how they've dealt with the big day FINALLY being here, the stresses of the days that follow as well as the upcoming dreaded "two week wait". As usual, they deal with it through their own unique sense of humour and, shockingly, their love and admiration for one another.

In this episode we learn that when life hands The Lunatics lemons, it tends to throw them right in their face. Alix & Craig update you on the last couple of months and how they've faced and coped with some major life changes. They take you through what happens after an egg retrieval doesn't go exactly as planned and the side effects of various new meds and painful procedures. Craig attempts to give a Science lesson and also discovers a new African country while Alix makes sure that their sex life really is dead in the water. It's an open and amusing look into a time that's anything but relaxing.

We're back Baby! After a bit of a hiatus, The Lunatics are back with a bang and have loads to talk about (though Alix can barely string a sentence together). Lots has happened since the last episode though nothing has changed in their relationship as Alix unnaturally tries to pay Craig a compliment while he continues to take the piss. They recap the last couple of months and the events that lead up to them having to take a bit of a break. As usual, nothing is off limits as the "joys" of the first trimester are discussed in excruciating detail in this open book of an episode.
