You're listening to Radio Diaries. This is Joe.

And this is Elisa.

And we want to thank everybody who has donated to Radiotopia's annual fundraiser so far.

We are coming to the end of the road, but we still have yet to reach our goal of a thousand donors.

So we want to let you know some of the things that your donation supports here at Radio Diaries.

We just finished our big series, The Unmarched Graveyard, and there's some expenses that you might expect, you know, paying for our producers, paying for research, paying for some gear, and there's some unexpected things.

Elisa, is there anything that was kind of unexpected?

For sure, like with the first story that I worked on, I interviewed a woman named Susan

Harlebert, whose son had died and was buried on Hard Island.

And after I interviewed her, I realized that she had actually never visited her son's grave.

So we decided to set that up.

You know, I went to pick her up a couple hours north of the city that cost us some gas money.

We put her up in a hotel and I bought a bunch of pizza and bagels to power us through the weekend.

And it was a really beautiful and

carb-filled couple days.

We hope that gives you a glimpse at some of the things that your donation helps

to support here at Radio Diaries

and we hope that you'll support us and the rest of the shows in the Radio Topia family.

You can donate today at radiotopia.F.M. slash donate. That's Radiotopia. F.M. slash donate.

And thank you so much for your support. Radio Topia from PRX. From PRX is Radiotopia this is Radio Diaries. I'm Joe Richmond.
