    In the words of Simon - it's been a journey. We started 8.5 years ago and fully expected to have the podcast for two weeks. Turns out we overstayed that initial estimate by quite a lot, but all good things still must come to an end. In this episode the trio talk about the reasons for ending the podcast and what is in store for the future. Thank you to everyone who stuck with us for all these years! Hosted on Acast.
