Alrightyyy, after nearly five months of podcasting, we have reached the end of this very fun, exciting, and educational chapter in our lives. Similarly to the end of many things, we have to close chapters in our lives to make room for new, good things. Saying goodbye isn’t always easy, but Mike and Arushi would like to share some of their favourite podcasts for you all to enjoy, while also reflecting on the podcasting process and expressing their unconditional appreciation and gratitude for each and every listener. Make sure to stick around ‘till the very end for the final fun fact of the podcast, you won’t want to miss this! From your hosts, Mike and Arushi, over and out. (potential description, open to any changes!!)

If you have any questions, comments, or future topic suggestions, we would love to hear from you. You can email us at [email protected].
