Hey, it's Anna. Before we get to our new episode, I have some significant, though incomplete,

news to share from death, sex, and money headquarters. There's a big change coming for our show.

Since we launched in 2014, we've made it with WNYC, the public radio station in New York,

which, like a lot of podcast and digital media companies, is facing a really difficult

budget situation. Because of that, they have to make cuts, and we've learned that our show

is affected by those cuts. But what exactly that will mean? We aren't sure yet.

Here's what I can tell you. The way we have been making death, sex, and money is ending at the end

of this year. We don't know yet what that's going to mean for you, our listeners.

I'm working with WNYC to talk to potential new partners or production homes for the show.

Right now, though, that is all I know. I will share updates with you about the future of our show

as I know them. Until then, we are continuing to make death, sex, and money through the end of

this year at WNYC. And the team and I were supporting each other through this uncertainty.

They are such amazing colleagues, friends, and audio professionals. And I'm also struck by how

you have helped train us for this time of uncertainty by sharing your stories of making it through

transitions. Some you didn't see coming. The team and I are in one of those life moments where you

can't see around the corner, where you know you're facing an end, but you can't see yet what

that's making room for. It takes faith. And for me, this also comes with overwhelming gratitude

for all that we've gotten to make together. If you want to be in touch with questions or ideas

or notes of support, we'll take them. Send us an email at deathsexmoneyatwnyc.org.

We may have more specific questions for you about what's been most important to you about death

sex and money as we imagine possible futures for the show. But for now, I just want to say sincerely.

Thank you so much for doing this with us.
