Across the UK, across Continental North America, and around the world on the internet, by webcast, and by podcast, my name is Howard Hughes, and this is the 100th edition of The Unexplained.

I can't believe I'm saying those words.

It seems like only yesterday that I was trepiditiously offence the right word sitting outside Yuri Gellers' home in the Thames Valley, waiting to do my first face-to-face interview for the show for the online version of it.

And Yuri, I've known for a number of years. He'd been a big supporter when I was on Capitol Radio in London, and various other things I've done.

And I can remember going into his home when we sat down in his sitting room to record the interview.

And he was amazingly supportive. He completely got what I was trying to do, and believed, as I've always believed that the future of all of this material is going to be online, and that more and more people like myself will emerge,

to do more diverse kinds of content. And that is how it's gone. That's how it's transpired. Even at times when I doubted it, the momentum was always there.

So if we look at things now at the end of 2012, there is much more material available online. It's not unusual for people to listen to shows, this show, for example, on a phone, or some kind of mobile device.

I've got people who listen on iPhones and every kind of mobile device, and people who listen to this show virtually in every country on the planet.

I've had emails lately from New Zealand and Australia, and a guy in Sweden, you know who you are. I will mention you and your girlfriend in a future edition when I do some shoutouts.

But he's been banned from listening to the show because he listens on an iPod in bed late at night.

And his girlfriend's not having that. She thinks he's addicted. Good addiction to have. I say, but that's just a measure of the kind of emails we're getting.

I feel that I can reach out to you and that I know you. And that is the way I think this kind of media is starting to work. We really can do it.

This is just a hundred shows. We're going to do a hundred more. We ain't going away. And let's see how we can develop this together we can.

Very much to Adam Cornwell, who's been with me for at least 75 of those shows. Amazingly talented webmaster at Creative hotspot in Liverpool.

And without Adam's foresight, I don't think we could have begun to go to the places that we're now going to with this show, but we have an awful lot more to do.

And together you and I, we can show them all. Let's try and do that in 2013. Let's make a point and let's prove that a show like this can do it.

Because I think we can we can bat on equal terms with the big boys. In fact, I think in some cases we can do better than they can do because we don't have production departments and huge infrastructures.

There's only me. So if you have a suggestion for a show, you can make it to me and I can carry it right out. That's how it works. I'm not going to go on too much about that because I know I've done that before.

Just to say, I wish you everything that you would wish for yourself in 2013. If you're hearing this before Christmas, I hope you have a nice warm and loving Christmas.

And let's see where we're going to go with the unexplained in 2013. If you'd like to make a donation to the show, this has been a very challenging year.

And any donations will be very gratefully received. Go to the website, www.the unexplained.tv, www.the unexplained.tv and you can make a donation there.
