Skin Hunger: Parts 1 & 2
Death, Sex & Money is a NYC based podcast born out of a desire for open and honest conversations about the things that we “think about a lot, and need to talk about more.” Some of these issues include class, student debt, cheating, porn, masculinity, racism in friendships, complicated relationships with siblings, and close encounters with death. In episodes Skin Hunger Parts: 1 & 2, a collaborative project between Anna Sale and Nick van der Kolk, host of Love + Radio, we hear from several listeners who’ve been deprived of touch during difficult moments during the past few months: new parenthood; racial trauma; the loss of a partner. “I have a feeling, the first person who I do hug, they’re going to have a mess on their hands,” a listener named Angie told us, whose partner recently died. “I can mostly talk without crying now…but I’m wondering if I’m going to go through that all again, once I actually am able to physically touch people, am I going to relive that whole experience?”
Anna Sale is the creator and host of Death, Sex & Money, the podcast from WNYC Studios. After debuting at the top of the iTunes chart in 2014, Death, Sex & Money was named the #1 podcast of the year by New York Magazine in 2015. Anna won a Gracie for best podcast host in 2016 and the show won a 2018 Webby for best interview show.
Before launching Death, Sex & Money, Anna covered politics for nearly a decade. She has contributed to Fresh Air with Terry Gross and This American Life and is the author of the forthcoming book Let’s Talk About Hard Things (Simon & Schuster). She grew up in West Virginia and now lives in Berkeley with her husband and two daughters.
