Really good in-depth conversations about race, family, and identity. Also really amazing guests! This podcast doesn’t shy away at big questions either.
Interesting and unexpected stories about family make this one of my favorite podcasts.
I’m enjoying the first few episodes I listened to. Growing up in the Midwest in the 90s, I rarely met other only children. I love hearing stories that parallel my own! Looking forward to hearing about more families.
