A quiet space for honest thoughts and messy moments.
Hosted by pianist Sally Yapto, Dear Nobody feels like a letter left unsent — a reflection of everything we don’t always say out loud, but probably should. Through personal stories, quiet confessions, and occasional guests, this podcast explores life behind the curtain — tender, complicated, and beautifully human.
Dear Nobody, I feel like I’m drowning right now.
Between a painful TFCC flare-up that has stalled practice and the mental marathon of prepping for a commencement speaker interview, the exhaustion of this final Master’s stretch is setting in.
In this episode, Sally reflects on what it means to find an authentic voice for the podium—moving away from the pressure of being "motivational" to simply being real. From the physical toll of hand-writing invitations for her upcoming recital to the simple, nerdy excitement of her first Record Store Day, this is a raw look at navigating a high-stakes season. It’s a reminder that even when you feel "fried," you can still make it to the finish line by taking things one by one.

The Side Quest Era
Dear Nobody, welcome to the side quest era.
In this monthly check-in, Sally dives into a season of maximum experience and spontaneity in New York City. From leaning into her most extroverted self to socializing with strangers who become fast friends, this episode is a transparent look at what happens when you decide to say "yes" to the sub-quests of life.
Sally shares the big updates on her upcoming "Left Hand Recital" and the overwhelming support she’s felt since announcing the program. She also opens up about a long-held dream coming true: being nominated as the graduation speaker for her class at Manhattan School of Music—a moment two years in the making that feels exactly like it's happening at the right time. From world movie premieres to "chickening out" while meeting LANY at an artist signing, this is a letter about growth, the revival of the romcom, and the beautiful, coincidental ways kindness brings the right people into our lives at the perfect moment.

Finding The Egg In Life
Dear nobody, have you ever thought how life would be without Jesus?
As we head into Good Friday and Easter weekend, this episode explores the "Holy" roots of these days and the traditions that bridge the gap between our lives on Earth and the world beyond.
In this episode, we go on a global tour of the strange and beautiful ways humanity celebrates—from the "Easter witches" of Sweden and the water-splashing of Poland to the endangered Bilbies of Australia. But beyond the egg rolling and the hot cross buns, there is a deeper question about the "test drive" of life. Comparing our time on Earth to a long road toward graduation, Sally reflects on the weight of our choices, the reality of the afterlife, and why finding the "egg" in life is really about finding a sense of eternal stability.
