We can't possibly do enough to express our thanks to anyone that gave our silly little podcast a listen. Whether you gave us a single listen, stuck with us for a while, or are one of the crazy weirdos that stayed with us from the very first few episodes: Thank you.
This podcast was many years in the making, and the idea that we put together 16 full episodes with over a thousand listens is unbelievable to all of us. The most important thing to us has been to share our love of music with anyone willing to listen, and we hope this podcast has been a way for you listeners to find something new.
If even a single person gave us a listen and found a new artist they've grown to love, then this podcast has been worth all the time and effort we've put into it.
Thank you!
Don't forget to find us on Twitter and Instagram at @ProofOfSoundPod. We also have a TikTok, but we're scared of it. Give it a follow in case we ever post something terrible!
Also, give each of us a search on our individual accounts if you'd like, as you never know when we might have something calling the band back together...
