Vox explainers: Explain It to Me franchise launched to answer audience questions

On Wednesday, we launched a new way for us to answer your questions. Our Explain It to Me franchise will include a weekly podcast, weekly newsletter, and regular videos that all focus on what our audience wants to know.

Vox’s goal is to explain the world. But we know answers to your questions are hard to find. Misinformation is rampant, and internet searches and AI chatbots often come up empty.

So that’s why we’re here. Our newsroom is ready to answer with deep reporting and expert insight, whether your questions are heavy or silly, systemic or personal.

Wondering about why American politics work the way they do? Have a question about retirement? Or just curious about something in your everyday life (like whether your dentist is scamming you)? We want to hear from you.

The Explain It to Me podcast is your hotline for all your unanswered questions, and host Jonquilyn Hill is your friendly guide who will find you the answers you’re looking for — and maybe even the ones you don’t expect. New episodes are released every Wednesday. You can always call us at 1-800-618-8545 or fill out this form and tell us what’s on your mind.

The Explain It to Me newsletter also tackles a question each week, delivering a digestible explainer that’s fun to read, and gives answers from different journalists around our newsroom. Sign up here to get it straight into your inbox.

Our video team will also tackle your questions in a series that launches later this month. Check out their latest work here.
