It's #seriessunday. We asked you what subject you'd want to teach or take in school if you could go back. And boy did you deliver. So much so that we decided to produce a week of shows about it!

Personal finance, media literacy, and more.

Hey all, just a quick note here. We're going to be airing our annual listener-suggested series in early February. We take your ideas and make them into shows!

If you think there's a topic we should cover, let us know here. Who knows, you might be on 1A talking us through your thought process.

We spent the last two weeks talking to federal workers and the Americans they serve. How do they get what they do done? Why is that work important? And who is relying on the results?

We called this series of conversations "dot Gov." Listen at the link below or wherever you get your podcasts.
dot Gov
Not Congress. Not the administration. The workers, beyond Washington.
