Hello, Listener. And goodbye. Our final episode is now available.

You won't see it on the main podcast feed (for reasons explained in the ep) but click the provided Soundcloud link or go to grapesofrad.com/317

Hello, Listener. If you're still here, you may have noticed we haven't posted since Christmas. There are reasons for this, which we'll explain on the show, but, sadly, we'll be retiring The Grapes of Rad after recording our final episode next week. It was irresponsible of us to leave you hanging this long, and it still warms our hearts to see the support and "where the hell y'all been" posts as they come in.

We have had a hell of a lot of fun and encourage comments, reflections, voicemails (206-414-9RAD), emails ([email protected]), etc. ramping up to the big finale being recorded on Wed 7/18.

Other irons are in the fire for the three of us, and we're still available to harass in various online forms. We love you and will miss bringing this silly little show to you!

Happy holidays, listener!
