Source Request: Thoughts on Caretaking in the US

Are you taking care of your elderly parents in the US? I want to hear from you!

Hi, folks! I’m looking for sources for an upcoming episode on family for my podcast But You Can’t Stay Here.

If you are a Millennial or Gen-Xer taking care of aging parents and live in the US, I’d like to hear your thoughts. Bonus points if you also happen to be a journalist, academic or writer who happens to have written about this subject before (but this is more of a “like to have” than a requirement).

The interview would be conducted virtually and last between 30-60 minutes. While it’s a plus if you have a mic and headphones, we can make do with the mic on your laptop. You don’t have to worry about downloading any hefty software or anything like that. I am in a bit of a time crunch, though, so I’m prioritizing people who have availability between Saturday, July 25-Wednesday, August 5.

If this is you, please feel free to send me a DM on the Substack app or respond to this email. If you know someone who might fit the bill, please feel free to forward this to them.

Thanks in advance!
