Hey, it's Anna. And today we're bringing you a couple of stories about death. But they're not from our team. They're part of a pilot project that our colleagues here at WNYC Studios have been working on with comedian Chris Garcia. You may have heard Chris on Two Dope Queens or on this American Life. Chris's father died of Alzheimer's last year. And he's been working on

this new pilot as he's been processing that death in the month since. It's a work in progress,

but we're sharing it with you now because WNYC Studios wants your feedback as we explore new shows

and new ideas. And obviously, you listen to death, sex and money, so we know you have great taste.

So after you listen, head over to deathsexmoney.org slash pilot to tell us what you think.

Here's Chris Garcia.

Hello, everybody.

Hi. Hi.

Parents or refugees or immigrants from Cuba.

Thank you.

And you know what?

I think a lot of comics get on stage and they make fun of their immigrant parents, and I think those days are done.

I think we have a better responsibility now. It's very disrespectful, it's very rude, it's also very unfair.

My father doesn't have any recourse. My dad never once got on stage and shit on me.

Not once did my dad get on

stage. Hey you guys!

Anybody have an American born kid?

Okay, I'm gonna talk

about it. Oh man.

My son Christian, he goes by Chris.

Yeah, okay, I believe it, man.

His name is Christian, Andres, Primitivo, Gansia.
