  • Adoptee here

    I'm a 62 yo baby scoop adoptee with a story of my own from being an adoptee to reunion to trying to get my original birth certificate. I've learned a lot listening to your guests. It has helped me come out the fog myself even at my age. The recent encore just hit me the genetic mirroring part I didn't even know was a "thing" with a name. I just know how I felt. Thanks for the education we are never to old to learn

  • Love the Podcast, but too many ENCORE episodes lately

    Love the two of you, love your content, love your guests. Want to see this podcast flourish! But I am afraid all these ENCORE episodes will stand in the way of that. I think they’re okay on a holiday week, or when you’ve told people there will be one ahead of time. But it’s disappointing to be looking forward to the week’s episode and see another ENCORE come up instead.

Unless her life went like an episode of Law and Order, her “abuser’s” trial beginning and ending while she wasn’t even seven months pregnant, going into a shelter that somehow turned into a mental health facility, to TWO different foster homes, and then adopted, while she still has bio parents and gra... more
