Just as when we launched, the timing feels right to pause. At this point, The Jelly Donut Podcast has achieved its goal. Mission accomplished, for now.

We’d like to thank all of the guests, listeners, sponsors, and stakeholders who helped make the show a success. We’ll be on hiatus for an indefinite period — until there’s a turning point in markets or when creativity sparks, whenever that time might be.

With that we’d like to say good luck. And goodbye — for now.
