Season Closing Notes
Well that’s it for the season. I have to say making this was not easy, but it was a lot of fun. The next season should be in production by next Spring! So keep an eye out on Social Media.

As you’ve probably been listening to this and the past episodes, you can see there is a lot of audio experimentation. I’m hoping to have it nailed down by next season..

I really want to say thank you to all my guests this season (Guest in Episode Order):

  1. Kevin Lugtu
  2. Lorelie Alejo
  3. John Salvador
  4. Melvin Matias
  5. Fred Sabino

I also want to thank my lovely fiancee, Johnna, for supporting me with each recording. And lastly I want to thank you, the listener. I know there’s a lot of choices you have out there, but it means a lot to me for you to listen.

2020 has been rough for many people, but I hope you and your loved ones are safe and happy this Holiday Season. This is Josh V signing out for the year and hope you hear from you in 2021.
