Hey there, it's James West here with a special announcement about the Mother Jones podcast.

Let's kick off that theme music one last time.

I say one last time because it's a special announcement about a goodbye for now.

Things have been a little bit quiet around these parts I know,

and that's because behind the scenes we've been rethinking, retooling, recalibrating,

working out the best ways to serve you, our listeners,

and we're going to take a little bit more time off air to do that work.

And we're not fans of ghosting people or the Irish exit or breakups via DM.

So I'm popping up here back in our feed to say thank you.

Thanks for an amazing couple of years, over 180 episodes and live events and more.

Every time we've heard from you directly and you have been in touch by email on Twitter,

you've always been so kind and supportive and really welcoming of our stories.

Goodbye is a hard, but it's not really a goodbye.

Mother Jones journalism isn't going anywhere and you can still listen to our articles on autumn through their app

and on select stories on our website.

And of course there's tons of multimedia journalism across TikTok, Instagram, YouTube,

all of that can be found at motherjones.com.

We'll pop up here again in the future, no doubt.

But for now, see ya and thanks.
