About this listen

Then to Us is a raw, heartfelt, and often hilarious podcast hosted by two biological brothers who were adopted into different families at birth-one raised in the deep South, the other up North. Reunited 50 years later, they explore their wildly different upbringings, dive into the realities and stigma of adoption, and share stories that are as touching as they are unexpected. With no script and nothing off limits, this show is about reconnection, family and finding common ground in the most unlikely places.

    Bonding Without a Blueprint

    Fifty years apart means a lot of catching up-and not just on the big life events. In this episode, we open up about what it's been like to build our relationship from the ground up: learning each other's quirks, figuring out how we fit into one another's lives, and navigating the sometimes delicate web of new family dynamics.

    The Brother Who Doesn't Know

    In this episode, we open up about the brother we've never met-the one who doesn't know we exist. While we were both adopted into different families, he stayed with our biological mother. He's lived a life that's been anything but easy.

    It's a story of invisible ties, quiet grief and the feeling of losing someone you've never even had the chance to meet.

    The call with our birth mother
    Jul 17 2025

    After 50 years, we finally picked up the phone and dialed the number that would connect us to the woman who brought us into the world. What followed was a rollercoaster of emotions: nerves, tears, laughter-and a whole lot of "Wait...are we actually doing this?" From awkward pauses to unexpected jokes, this call had it all.
