Donor conceived journalist Louise McLoughlin is back with Season 2 of her chart-topping podcast. In this episode, Louise catches up with some of the people from Season 1, and explores how we can take our own experiences of being donor conceived and use them to influence change.  As Louise speaks to activists going down both new and traditional routes she asks, 'how do we make a difference in our own families, in the minds of strangers, or in our legal system?'

On a randomly-selected bridge near Oxford, Louise meets her biological dad for the first time, alongside her half-sister Jess. As she revels in the joy and awkwardness of that first meet, she also speaks with other donor conceived people who weren't so lucky. 

In the last episode of the first series, Louise sits down with Erin Jackson -- a well-known advocate in the DC world -- to break down lessons from the podcast so far, and to chat about what still needs to be done. And, naturally, there's one more DNA surprise in store for Louise.
