Really well produced. Great stories. I love this podcast. Anna is the BEST interviewer I have ever heard. The unbiased, non judgmental tone is something you don’t often hear. She is amazing.

The valentines episode is the 3rd time you have played that episode. Seriously? Another rerun with no new content this week. Replaying old episodes with zero new episodes is not podcasting. Such a dumb move. I’m miss when you talked about things like death, sex, and money. Now it’s just boring...Read full review »

Big thanks to Slate for picking up Death, Sex & Money. Knowing I wouldn’t be able to listen to Anna Sale was almost like experiencing a break up. I’ve been listening to this podcast since 2020 and there’s nothing like it. I’ve saved the following episodes because they’re worth the...Read full review »

I recently heard about DSM from Jonathan Goldstein's Heavyweight and have been a listener and supporter ever since. So grateful for Slate providing a home for this podcast gem. Thank you Anna and Slate and hope thatHeavyweight can find a new home too. As an avid podcast listener, I also hope...Read full review »

Once I heard the episode on Big Freida (sp?) about her experience during Katrina and being displaced and finding her grove back in New Orleans, I knew this was my new favorite storytelling podcast. These stories keep me listening again and again, there’s just so much love and compassion and a...Read full review »

Talking about the hard stuff—and what’s harder than sex, death and money?— isn’t so hard with Anna, the most compassionate interviewer I've heard on a podcast. Every show is a gem.Read full review »

Thanks to Anna Sale and team for your great work. So glad you will keep going!
we are the neighbors via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/11/24
I have been an on and off listener of DSM for 5+ years. There is a sort of a cathartic feeling each time I listen an episode. Even if the story or interview I am listening to may not exactly match my own circumstance, there is small nugget of the feeling the subject is experiencing that feels...Read full review »

I’m finally writing a review after nearly 10 years of listening to my favorite and ONLY podcast that I follow regularly, DSM. As someone who is always trying to speak with a kind of blunt truth to others, it’s great to see a show tackling the things we NEED to talk about, and not just sticking to...Read full review »

So happy to know DS&M is making a comeback! It’s such a well produced show that shines the spotlight on incredibly important topics. Anna Sale, if ever you read this, please know that you make we want to ask better questions, both as a therapist and as I continue reflecting on my own life. I...Read full review »

I'm unable to stop thinking about the Mahershala Ali episode when Anna was on maternity leave and he was the host. That man is already brilliant but as host? He facilitated such a wholesome, warm conversation with Rafael Casal. I’ve listened to it too many times. Top 5 favorite podcast...Read full review »
Liviya #SinceAllTheNamesTaken via Apple Podcasts · Nigeria · 01/26/24
I can’t pick a favorite episode but I have loved all of the listener call-in shows about any topic: student debt, estrangement, cheating. The celebrity interviews I didn’t love so much. There are so many interview shows out there and this one just didn’t rise above the rest.
ams4467 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/26/24
This podcast is usually what I turn to when something upsetting or unexpected happens in my life and I need to see how other people handled it. It makes me feel less isolated knowing other people are dealing with exactly what I’m going through. Hi Anna and team! Per Anna’s voice memo from 1/22,...Read full review »
Laura EIU via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/22/24
I’m a long time listern and was so excited - and relieved - to hear that Death, Sex, and Money will continue! The podcast takes on complicated and difficult issues in both humorous and serious ways, to engage listeners with the nuance of topics we encounter every day but don’t seem to know how to...Read full review »

Glad the podcast lives! The Estrangement series was really well done. I’ve enjoyed the multi episode theme series the most!
Clfclf918 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/20/24
I just love the breadth of this podcast. The whole team is amazing and I find myself often laughing, crying, and nodding along all within one episode. I love them all but I think my favorite series is’, ‘Becoming a Father in ‘Prison’! I love hearing from both sides and the honesty behind it and...Read full review »
Katemomwifeclin via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/19/24
This is one of my favorite podcasts. The episodes I have liked best were the ones on estrangement, but I have listened to every single one. Every. One. The one on pet loss was great, too.
cynthiafrombc via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/18/24
Always an episode to make me laugh or cry. I love the episodes in fun like the mover Adonis, and the series on erectile dysfunction inspired me to be more open in conversations with my partner.
Mustnaglover via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/17/24
Even when listening to stories that I can’t “relate” to, I still found a profound message that I could take away. My favorite episodes include “A Prison Guard in Transition,” “Titus’s Burgess Airs His Laundry,” and “A Trans Parent’s Adoption Journey.” Each of these had such powerful messages...Read full review »

Don’t know how to talk _____? We’ll, just listen then. I’ve been a long time fan of Death, Sex & Money. It’s been a way for me to start meaningful conversations with my friends and family, usually during a long car ride about topics that are a bit taboo like Student Debt, the cost of having a...Read full review »

Heart-stirring depth, humor, deep conversations about what it is to be human. Anna’s laugh makes my heart smile. Loved the interview with Chaz Ebert.

Anna is an amazing interviewer and DSM covers important topics that other podcasts don’t get into as much
KassK44 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/15/24
So many moments from Death, Sex, and Money stick with me after all of this time listening: Ellen Burstyn coining “a should-less day”, which is still boldly displayed on my favorite coffee mug. Another was the interview with Saeed Jones and me immediately listening to the audiobook of their memoir...Read full review »
12emro via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/15/24
Any episode with Ellen Burstyn is always a conversation I need to hear. I also appreciate the episodes that discuss sex work without shame or judgement.
T. Dapkey via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/24
I have been listening to the Death, Sex and Money podcast for a few years. It has covered so many different topics and perspectives, but all of he interviews have a special intimacy and emotion because of the way Anna Sale holds conversations with her guests. One of the episodes that got me...Read full review »

The episode “How to Say Goodbye to Your Pets” came just in time for me, and I’m sure many other listeners. It was almost a year before I put down my pet, but it allowed me to think through how to do right by my old and declining pet, and helped me prepare emotionally. I returned to the episode 2...Read full review »

I appreciate the shows about money and death the most. Especially when diving into income disparity amongst Americans.
BritFanCT via Apple Podcasts · South Africa · 01/14/24
Anna and team deliver marvellous content at a human pace that allows for thought and reflection. My favourite episodes recently — the ones that left me feeling more connected to the world — were the interview with actress Ellen Burstyn and the one about the New York City Mover. Both left me...Read full review »

I love this podcast and Anna Sales’ intelligent conversations. As a grieving mother I’m always interested in how the rest of the world manages death. Keep up the good work.
PegsCats via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/13/24
Death, Sex & Money has been one of my go-to podcasts for years. And that’s saying a lot because I listen to A LOT of podcasts and rotate through many of them pretty quickly. DSM is one of only about three shows that I consistently come back to. Anna is a master interviewer who balances hard...Read full review »

It’s truly an example of fantastic interviewing and contact creation. I’m so happy for Anna and the team...Read full review »

I don’t remember how I first started listening to DS&M, but the episode from early 2020 with author Carmen Maria Machado confirmed everything I knew deep down about my toxic relationship and gave me the conviction to break things off… for that I will forever be grateful!!
KL_in_TX via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/12/24
Good luck with Slate transition! I feel like you all could do many more episodes on the estranged topic. Family, coworkers, folks you met in an organization that you were once close with, etc.
Alreadasleepy. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/12/24
I think the episodes I like the most for this podcast talk about taboo topics - like, a woman who has serious mental health challenges, deciding to have two babies. Glad to hear the podcast lives on!
beanerbobanner via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/12/24
This podcast is so well done. Relevant and interesting REAL issues that affect all of us covered in a thoughtful and meaningful way. You broaden my world and make my heart bigger. I rarely feel connected to humanity but this podcast helps me to see. I listened to each episode immediately. It...Read full review »

The first episode I ever listened to had me hooked! It was about a mover in NYC named Adonis…it was funny, touching and simply beautiful. I haven’t stopped listening ever since. I am so thankful for the DS&M team, the show makes me a better person.
Dotee via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/12/24

I’ve been listening to DSM since it launched.

What can I say, Anna Sale is the best at what she does. She is a brave and sensitive explorer of the human soul. Her interviews are real, emotional, uncomfortable at times, but always balanced with her contagious laugh. I’ve spent hours listening to DS & M while cooking, gardening and...Read full review »

I was so heartbroken to hear my favorite podcast was ending and of course I’m now over the moon that we still get to have DSM! Thank you Anna!

This show is one of the all-time bests. Anna Sale is a fantastic interviewer, bringing the same level of engagement and genuine curiosity to an a-list celebrity as an unknown convict or adulterer. I come away from these episodes feeling better about humanity, and that’s not something I feel often...Read full review »
