Thanks for listening over the last few years. This year has been a bit crazy with work, the council elections and COVID of course, so I've been a bit slack with recording. I do all my own editing and contacting guests too and with the craziness of this year, it wasn't as easy to do.
Also, as I was running in the local government elections, I wasn't sure it was good to keep finding guests, while also being critical of some of their parties during the campaign. But I think I want to continue honing my interviewing skills and being able to talk to people from all over the political spectrum.
I'm hoping to record many more episodes next year (2021) and will be contacting politicians soon. I'd also like a couple of regular guests (maybe one right and one left) to discuss political events, but I'll see. If you know any politicians who would be keen
