Tapestry: Thanks for listening
In this finale episode of Tapestry, Mary Hynes and co-host Chris Howden send off the show in style with some of our favourite interview moments, well wishes from past guests, and emotional calls from listeners — all in front of a live studio audience.

Saying goodbye
For Tapestry's penultimate episode, we peek behind the curtain. Tapestry producers Rosie Fernandez, Arman Aghbali, and McKenna Hadley-Burke take the hosting reins to share what the show has meant to them, alongside three stories on unexpected gifts and goodbyes.

Our most requested interview: John O'Donohue
The Irish poet John O'Donohue is in a league of his own here at Tapestry — he stars in the single most requested episode we’ve ever broadcast.
O’Donohue, an ex-priest, was also a beautiful writer, and a wildly eloquent partner in conversation. Talking to Mary Hynes in 2004, O’Donohue shares his poetry and soulful wisdom about what it means to live a good life and die a good death.
Customer Reviews
Tapestry
Like so many, I’m going to miss Mary’s insightful and thought-provoking interviews. As I moved around the world, and after years of Sunday listening, I became grateful to find Tapestry again as CBC podcasts available at any hour where there is internet. They have been a gift. Today came the realization that only 5 shows remain to revisit on the podcast site.
A plea to CBC: Have a heart and give loyal and even new listeners access to more than Tapestry’s last 5 shows. There is so much worthwhile re-listening from the past twenty-nine years that can be enjoyed via podcast.
Thank you Mary and Tapestry - you have been good company!

I will miss Mary Hynes’s incredible talent to thoughtfully ask the most insightful queries.
You exude compassion, I’m sad. Take care Mary.

Final words
Such a loss for Tapestry to be coming to an end!
And old episodes removed from the podcast-why?
You will be missed Mary
