Our country has always been a hot mess. But now, between political rage, climate crises and social-media polarization, it’s quite literally on fire. This low-key mid-apocalyptic moment has raised a question for Tony-award-winning Sarah Jones and her many characters: America, Who Hurt You?

Bookended by the debates, dialogues, and hilarious digressions of the characters made famous by Sarah’s one-person shows and acclaimed film Sell/Buy/Date, this podcast explores our political dramas, personal traumas, and how the two are connected. Plus: we’ll have some of the smartest people we know stop by to sit with Sarah and unpack it all. America, Who Hurt You? holds up a loving but accurate mirror to our country’s range of faces as we try to save democracy—or at least stop doom-scrolling.

America, Who Hurt You?

I’m so grateful this show exists.  Everyone has something to gain and learn from listening to this show.  Thank you to Sarah and for all the folks involved who make it.

Everyone should listen

Thanks for this. For those of us who are having election anxiety you have helped make the madness seem worth the wait!

Thank q

Sarah is a rare talent and this is such a novel podcast. It’s social commentary, comedy, and theatre all at once.

Brilliant

Came across Sarah’s show while searching for W Kamau Bell, one of her first guests. I love her voice work for various characters. And I’ve liked the guest. She’s invited on.
