Hi, everyone. It's Anna. Since the election, we've been hearing from you. We asked you to answer the question, what's the thing you wish other Americans understood about you, but don't. Last night, I hosted a live call-in special on the radio, and you chimed in with your answers. It was a great conversation and really an honor to talk with you so honestly at such a raw time in our country.

So we wanted to share the radio special with you over the podcast feed, too. Just a reminder, when you hear the phone number, this already happened, so you won't get me if you call in.

But you can reach us any time by emailing death death sex money at WNYC.org.

This radio call-in special was in collaboration with an election series produced by my colleagues in the WNYC

newsroom in New York. The series is called the United States of Anxiety. It's been really great

and has covered how complicated and emotional this moment in America is right now.

Look it up on iTunes or wherever you get your podcast.

And have a great Thanksgiving holiday weekend.

I'm thankful for you.

It was so exciting to get to talk to some of you live on the radio.

Here's our show.

I'm Anna Sale, host of Death, Sex, and Money, the podcast from WNYC Studios. And for the next hour, we're going to be taking your calls specifically around

one question. What do you want other Americans to understand about you that they don't? Our number is

212-433 WNYC,

or you can tweet at WNYC or at DeathSex Money.

Use the hashtag other Americans.

I want to get to as many calls as possible tonight,

and I'm hoping that we'll hear from people across the country.

We've already been asking our listeners on death sex and money

what they want other Americans to understand about them.

And we heard from Kelly in Portland, Oregon.

Hi, Kelly.
