We love hearing your comments on our stories. Comment emails are circulated among all the producers and taken very seriously. Email us at web@thislife.org.
If you have a question and want a speedy answer:
- Check our FAQ for general questions about the show, streaming audio, podcasting, submissions, and pretty much everything else.
- If you’re looking for a story or a segment, try different keywords in our search engine. If that doesn’t work, browse our archive.
