After 4 years, 8 seasons and over 500 episodes, Rockpool Podcasts has come to an end.

We've had a fantastic run, won awards, received commendations from the Scottish Parliament, Auditor General, MSPs and have been endorsed by press, industry and individuals & establishments we hold in high esteem.

We've interviewed & hosted some incredible & inspiring people, organisations & events; worked with a team of truly talented broadcasters & producers; and have consistently evolved our productions, app, VR studio & social media content to entertain our listeners, followers & Friends of The Pod.

Thank you to every single person who has been a guest on the show, to everyone who has produced an episode of the show, to those from far & wide who have worked in collaboration with us, to our listeners and to those individuals who have always supported & championed our work.

As bittersweet as this moment is to say goodbye, my work in audio journalism, broadcasting & podcasting will be continuing into the future with the podcasts & projects I'm producing across my network at Jonsan Media. And I for one, can't wait to see how it all turns out.

I've been your host, John McBlain and for one last time, thank you for listening to Rockpool Podcasts.
