Special Announcement - Upcoming Changes.
Hey Wee Ones. You may have noticed over the last few months that you have not been hearing as much from Cole as previously. Well, that’s because she’s decided to take a step back from doing the podcast as much. But don’t worry, she still loves the podcast and you listeners, and has said she will pop back now and again as a guest to cover the odd episode with me. So, to allow a wee reboot, March’s episodes will be previous Patreon episodes with Cole still participating in them, and then I’ll be back in April with a slightly new format. And speaking of guests, I’m hoping to be joined by some other special guests over the course of this year. That’s all for now, but I’ll share more with you towards the end of March as to what is in store for the rest of the year.
Come back here, or visit us on social media, for more information and updates.
