Today on Boston Public Radio:

We begin the show by asking listeners about their reactions to the results of election day yesterday.

Art Caplan weighs in on how the country should approach vaccinating children aged 5-11, and why even some vaccinated parents might be hesitant to vaccinate their young children. Caplan is the Drs. William F. and Virginia Connolly Mitty Professor and founding head of the Division of Medical Ethics at NYU School of Medicine in New York City.

Juliette Kayyem breaks down the latest news across the political divide, including the meaning of new Republican catchphrase “let’s go Brandon,” and a QAnon rally in Dallas yesterday, where supporters expected John F. Kennedy Jr. to emerge, despite having died over 20 years ago. Kayyem is an analyst for CNN, former assistant secretary at the Department of Homeland Security and faculty chair of the homeland security program at Harvard University’s Kennedy School of Government.

Meredith Goldstein takes questions from listeners on all things love, including on how having a baby changes relationships and how short men can cope with the insecurities of dating apps. Goldstein is an advice columnist and features writer for the Boston Globe. Her advice column, Love Letters, is a daily dispatch of wisdom for the lovelorn that has been running for more than a decade. She also hosts the Love Letters podcast.

Jared Bowen previews this weekend’s theater events, including “Macbeth In Stride” at the ART, “Hadestown” at Broadway in Boston, and “WITCH” at the Huntington, as well as tours of two Frank Lloyd Wright houses in New Hampshire. Bowen is GBH’s executive arts editor and the host of Open Studio.

We end the show by continuing our conversation with listeners about their reaction to yesterday’s election.
