I would like to say a sincere thank you to everyone who subscribed to the series, listened to or even just downloaded a single episode over the last 19 months of the podcast's existence. I also extend a thank you to every guest, whether their interview made it to air or not, and their followers for joining us on the ride. It was wild.

Stay subscribed to hear news of the new Beyond the Words Project, coming out sometime in the next few months (We're aiming for before Christmas!)
