Thanks for this
I’ve been a Rush fan since 1976. I’m so grateful this podcast exists. But I need more content. I just keep re-listening to them! Just love listening to people talk about my favorite band. Hopeful for new shows soon! Don’t stop.
Thankful
I have listened since around episode 5 or so and your podcast was a godsend in a difficult time. I had to wait a few weeks to listen to the final episode because it got me pretty emotional knowing it was the end. But you guys deserve to go out on a high note knowing it was a job very well done.
Cheers and a thousand heartfelt thanks from Eugene Oregon.
