About This Podcast

Welcome to the Dad, Actually podcast! Follow along as I share what my experience was like navigating the foster care system in order to build a family as a single gay man. Full transparency! Everything from start to finish and what parenting has been like following the finalization of our adoption. As a bonus, enjoy my mini series called Dad, After Dark where we'll discuss various topics in unhinged and uncut episodes with a featured guest each week. Considering tackling the foster care system too? Submit your questions in the comments and maybe we'll discuss or answer it in a future episode
