Missing Pieces - NPE Life

By: Don Anderson
  • Summary

  • 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.

    A few words about the fires in Los Angeles. It's a devastating time in LA right now. There is so much heartbreak going on. Whole neighborhoods burnt to the ground. But I am proud of my fellow Angeleno's. I love Helen Keller's quote "Although the world is full of suffering, it is full also of the overcoming of it." It's beautiful that in the midst of such tragedy we are coming together, neighbors helping neighbors, donations upon donations. And to our amazing firemen and all the firemen who came from other cities, states and countries, we thank you!!
