Missing Pieces - NPE Life
Don Anderson
Missing Pieces - NPE Life is a podcast that curates stories of and about people who find out, usually through a home DNA test, that someone in their family tree isn't who they thought. We also tell stories of adoptees who've found lost family, or are looking. The host, Don Anderson, found out in 2021 that his dad wasn't his dad. It changed his life. All of the sudden the missing pieces fell into place. Our first episode will drop on May 13, 2022. NPE stands for Not Parent Expected or Non Paternity Event.

Emails from a woman who hates NPEs
Missing Pieces - NPE Life
08/08/22 • 29 min
In this episode I read an email exchange between me and this woman who hates NPEs and NPE podcasts. And I think it comes out funny. You be the judge.
It really dumbfounds me how nasty and mean people can be and then have absolutely zero ability to see themselves. So sit back, put on your seatbelt and get ready to hate someone. Or maybe agree with someone.
