Today's episode of the City of Smag Podcast on the City of Smag Podcast network is one of our final episodes of 2020.

First off, I wanted to say thank you to everyone who's tuned in. It's been an absolute blast. I believe if I added things up correctly I recorded

edited produced and published 61 episodes including this one and that's

something about like 65 hours worth of programming.

Across the Citismag Podcast Network, I worked on a hundred and fifty seven episodes across six different shows.

We added three new shows into the rotation including Run Your

Mout, Social Sport, and more than running with Dana Gerdano. So if you've

enjoyed listening to any of these shows and want to support us in

2021 we've got a

Patreon page in the show notes where you can make any sort of pledge and

whatever feels comfortable to you so that we can keep this going strong and

maybe even stronger next year. We've got some plans for

outdoor meets once those get back on the schedule, the Olympic track trials, and so much

more. Your support will help make it possible for us to get to events, you know, upgrade the

quality of our work, experiment with some new projects, get some more writing back

on Citius mag.com. So support Citius mag by visiting patreon.com slash Citius mag by visiting Patreon.com slash Citius mag.

Another way you can support us is by picking up some of our cool

merch and rep Citius mag with a dope crewneck hoodie t-shirt or, visit Citius mag.com and then hit the merch tab.

All these links will be included in the show notes.
