Unique as hell... Honest... Compelling!
Podcast Addict54 days agoslatersli@hotmail.com- So moving
As someone who’s had a tenuous (at best) relationship with my father I was so incredibly moved by this story. It has created a hole and a loneliness that is so hard to explain and impossible to fill. Sayre is so much better than I am at self reflection and owning up to his flaws as well as his birth fathers and his adopted dad. I had to stop and start this many times because I became overcome with emotion…what a beautiful podcast. Thank you Sayre!
