Bloodworks 101 is an Anthem Award-winning weekly podcast produced by Bloodworks Northwest, a Seattle-based blood bank and research center. Episodes are designed to inspire and educate listeners to donate time, money or blood.

You'll meet a man who survived leukemia with the help of 267 blood transfusions, a woman who started donating blood after September 11th and then years later, would end up winning a new car because of it. You'll meet an 81-year-old nurse whose plasma helped those suffering from COVID-19, and a five-year-old boy who beat stage IV Neuroblastoma thanks to blood donors he'll never know. 
These are just a few of the stories you'll hear on Bloodworks 101, hosted by Emmy Award-winning producer John Yeager, who is joined by a team of producers including gifted storytellers Bill Harper, Helen Pitlick and Juan Cotto.
