I'm so glad we had this time together, just to have a laugh and sing a song. Seems we just get started and before you know it...comes the time we have to say "so long". 

It's been a fun time and we're grateful for all our listeners and supporters. But it's time to end the podcast and turn our attention to other things. In final episode, we hoist a coffee with Baileys, reminisce about all the fun, thank some people, and play some old fake sponsor bits. Check out what's happening with Susan and Art on our FB page "Art and Susan's Podcast". 

As the year 2024 starts up, we look back at our holiday fun, talk about some silly news, and about the real possibility that we'll end the podcast under the current name. We'll be keeping the faithful updated on our Facebook page "Art and Susan's Podcast". 

It's Christmas time and we have an excellent suggestion for your friends and loved ones who like a lively read. Our old friend JP Linde is back with his latest book Fools Gold, available on Amazon. It's a wild adventure set during the Yukon Gold rush between Wyatt Earp and Jack London. The always funny JP  talks about the writers' strike and what gave him the idea for this book. 

Susan and Art both had big dinners with family with all the extracurriculars and Art decided to "spatchcock" the turkey. Also, a recap of Susan's comedy seminar for the Ha Ha Harvest Comedy Festival. 

Fruit truck smashes into Art's car, sledge hammers smash a hole in his fireplace wall, and Susan dashes over to check on an elderly friend who's not answering calls or texts. 

Talking about our show on Friday with the story telling at the end as well as some thoughts about international events and how we gain knowledge in general. Deep. 

Recapping the wonderful fundraiser for our buddy Nick Theisen in Spokane. Such a warm, exciting evening with great friends and great comics. Also, some other stuff...

Susan and Art get a chance to work together in Wenatchee Washington with Travis Sherer. Apparently Susan has been given a new nickname by her peers that fits her act perfectly. Art, Susan, and Travis take the show to a room at the Red Lion to mostly talk shop with the likable  and intelligent Travis, who's been a guest on two episodes. 

Art and Susan get back to their love of talking shop today with their guest Pat House.  Pat is a national touring comic out of Philadelphia who plays all the "A" Comedy Clubs across the country. At 38 years old Pat has been a stand-up half of his lifetime. Even though Pat is much younger than Susan and Art, they share a common the love of making people laugh and stories about the craft of stand up.   Find Pat on his YouTube channel " Pat House" or tune into his podcast " I Guess I'll Do It!"  Follow him on IG @ Bohemianpatsody,  Tik Tok at Pat House Comedy or visit his website  Pathousecomedy.com

We chat about Susan's comedy seminar and the Portland Comedy scene, the washed out Burning Man, and the change blowing in the winds for fall and for humans in general. Deep stuff, and we weren't even drinking or smoking pot.
