He Had No Kids, No Plans for Any, and Got a Vasectomy on Camera. Yes, Really.

Jordan Temple didn’t just get a vasectomy. He made a documentary about it.

The Emmy-nominated TV writer and comedian joins Dr. Paul Turek and co-host Rob Clyde in Episode 15 of Talk with Turek for one of the most candid, funny, and useful conversations about men’s reproductive health you will find anywhere.

More men are stepping up and taking ownership of reproductive health and birth control, a shift that is changing the conversation about who carries that responsibility and why it took this long.

In this episode:

  • Why a single man with no kids chose a procedure originally designed to be permanent and why it is more thoughtful than people assume
  • What filming something so personal actually felt like and what going public with it looked like
  • How cultural expectations still shape the way men approach reproductive decisions
  • Why Jordan’s decision is controversial for men and women
  • The medical straight talk every man deserves before making the decision
  • Dr. Turek answers the questions men are too embarrassed to ask out loud

Why this one is worth your time:

  • Medically informative without feeling clinical
  • Genuinely funny without losing the substance
  • Covers the full spectrum of why men choose vasectomies and what life looks like after
  • Think healthcare information meets a good night at a comedy club, minus the two-drink minimum
