THE TOWNIES EP. 33: THE BIG "WHAT'S NEXT"

Welcome back to The Townies Podcast and Episode 33, our very special season finale.

As we say goodbye to Season 1 and embark on the “Big What's Next” for Season 2, first and foremost we just want to say thank you all for making this first year and a half even better than we could have possibly imagined.

We are so grateful for all the storytellers who lent us their words and for all the listeners who took those words beyond the four walls of Kim Maxwell Studio. Thank you to our Songwriters and Guest Performers for contributing their amazing music and hilarious Townie Tidbits.

So, in celebration of what has been and what will come, in this episode we thought we’d have some of the spectacularly talented, tasteful and well-dressed Townies production crew talk about what Season 1 has meant to them.

We can’t wait to bring you even more stories from our amazing 805 in Season 2 of The Townies Podcast, returning in February 2019.

If there’s a particular story that you’d like to hear again but you can’t remember where you heard it, head on over to TheTowniesPodcast.org/Season1 for a list of names and pieces in alphabetical order.

MUSICAL INTERLUDE BY

A MOMENT OF CHOICE written & performed by Theodora Holt: This fierce mom-of-one can bring a smile to your face on even the worst of days. Theo’s humor and grace are seemingly effortless, leading one to wonder: how does she do it?

WE'RE MEN, REMEMBER? written & performed by Jem Ruf & Luke Hamann: Jem and Luke are Nordhoff High School boys with big ambitions that include college, Hollywood, some good jazz music, and lots of swimming. And these two will be cracking each other up all the way along.
