All That is Known
All That Is Known is a documentary podcast about one woman's lifelong search to understand where she came from.
What begins with a records request in 1981 becomes a decades-long pursuit through adoption files, court records, hospital archives, and family secrets—each discovery revealing new truths while raising new questions.
At age sixty-eight, a chance encounter uncovers a record that appears to answer the largest remaining mystery, the identity of her father. Instead, as records often do, it opens an entirely new chapter of the search.
Season One is a serialized story and is best experienced in episode order, beginning with Episode 1: A Life Recorded.
