Welcome to The Main Thing Podcast - your nine minute dose of wisdom. I’m your host Skip Lineberg.

I am absolutely thrilled to introduce you to my special guest today, Anna Sale, a journalist and podcaster whose work I have greatly admired for many years.

Anna is the host of the fabulous podcast "Death, Sex & Money" from WNYC Studios about “the things we think about a lot and need to talk about more.” 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 DSM won a 2018 "Webby" for best interview show. Her guests have included Jane Fonda, Bill Withers, Madeleine Albright and Kevin Bacon. 

Before developing "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 currently working on a book for Simon & Schuster called "Let's Talk about Hard Things."

Anna grew up in West Virginia. Today, she lives with her husband and two daughters in Berkeley, California.
