The DNA Test That Found His Biological Father - Uncut with Ryan Jon Dunn

Today’s episode is on the more unhinged side of any of the previous interviews we’ve done. We guess it’s what happens when you put 3 yappers in a room together.

Joining the podcast today is podcaster, radio broadcaster and dad Ryan Jon Dunn. Ryan is half of the Toni and Ryan podcast. We’ve had the pleasure of chatting with Ryan’s cohost Toni Lodge at one of our live shows and here on the podcast and we were well overdue to chat to Ryan, so when he slid into the DM’s it was a quick yes. 

Today we wanted to chat with Ryan about his career and building the mammoth podcast that is Toni and Ryan, Ryan’s search for his biological parents and the experience of being an adoptee, and becoming a dad himself!

We chat:

• Being dot-comrads “friends of the internet”
• Ryan shares the story about himself that will haunt him forever
• His ‘past life’ as an accountant before radio
• Why Ryan isn’t worried about ever going back to a ‘regular job’
• Being adopted at 10 weeks old and his feelings towards his biological mother
• How an ancestry DNA test found his biological dad
• What it was like meeting him
• Finding out that his biological mother had passed away before he met her
• The grief of losing the opportunity of something 
• Ryan’s IVF journey
• Deciding whether they would share their kid on social media or not
• New guidelines with kids and content
