Thank you everyone who listened at any point during the last six years. I’m fairly certain that when I started this show as a sophomore in high school, I had no idea as a senior in college I’d still be doing it. In many ways it’s remarkable, a scatterbrained teenager turned college student somehow managed to be consistent and produce a show for six straight years. We certainly had our ups and downs and random hiatuses, but I never wanted to leave the show, I never wanted to just let it die. And honestly, part of me still doesn’t. But time is an issue, and there are new avenues of content calling me. To some degree I grew up on this show, the world got a chance to see me morph my political views into what they are today. I consider that both a blessing and a pretty unique opporunity. Thanks for sticking with us for six years and tolerating my growth spirts. I never started this show or continued it because I wanted to be famous and have thousands of people listening to me, I did it because I was passionated about politics and creating content. Go do the same. Follow your passion, you can make remarkable changes if you do. But I’ll tell ya, people listening doesn’t hurt.
Thank you all,
Jacob Bodnar
