This season of 5 Random Questions has been a rollercoaster of creativity and fun, and I can't thank you all enough for being part of it.
The show took home the prestigious Best Interview Podcast award at the 2025 Ear Worthy Podcast Awards, and that recognition is all thanks to you, the amazing listeners.
With 700 new curious minds joining our community this season, it feels like the chaos just keeps expanding, and I'm so excited for what’s to come.
The launch of the 5 Random Questions Patreon has been a game-changer, offering fans exclusive content, a chance to influence future episodes in a big way, and much much more.
I'm truly grateful to each guest who brought their unique stories and humour to the mic, making this season unforgettable.
Season 5 is just around the corner, packed with exciting guests, themes, and maybe even video episodes that you won't want to miss.

Hey there, Danny here and welcome to this bonus episode of 5 Random Questions.
Season 4 has officially wrapped and before we take a short breather before Season 5 kicks off, I just want to say a massive thank you to you, to our guests, and to everyone who's made this season such a blast. Let's start with some highlights because honestly, it's been a pretty special one this season.
5 Random Questions took home the Best Interview Podcast award at the Ear Worthy Podcast Awards, which still blows my mind to say out loud. To everyone who's listened, shared the show, or taken a chance on it, thank you. That recognition doesn't happen without you. The show is also featured in the local news, which was kind of surreal, but in a good way.
It's one thing to see your show on a podcast app, but it's another to see your face in print with a headline that doesn't include "Local Man Arrested for Asking Too Many Weird Questions". So, yeah, big milestone moment there. And to top it off, this season saw seven hundred new listeners add 5 Random Questions to their listening library.
That's seven hundred new, curious, creative humans who decided to make this show part of their week, and I can't thank you enough for that. Welcome to the chaos, friends. Another big step this season was the launch of the 5 Random Questions Patreon.
It's been amazing to see the community start to grow there with early access, behind the scenes bits, the chance to help shape what future seasons look like, and much more. If you're a patron,
thank you for supporting indie creativity and helping the show keep doing what it does best, asking the kind of questions the guests have never faced before. Of course, none of this happens without the incredible guests who joined me this season.
From creators and storytellers to thinkers and doers, each one brought their own brand of honesty, humour, and sometimes absolute chaos to the mic.
It's been one of my favourite lineups yet, and I'm genuinely grateful to every guest who said yes to being asked five completely unpredictable questions. And I've got to give a huge shout out to the Mercury Podcast Network.
They've been champions of the show since becoming part of the network in May, and their ongoing support means the world. It's a huge part of how this little curiosity fuelled project keeps growing. But most importantly to you, the listener. Thank you.
Thank you for tuning in each week, for sharing episodes with your friends, and for sending messages about which question made you laugh or which answer caught you off guard. You make 5 Random Questions what it is, a space for unexpected conversations unfiltered answers and just a little bit of mischief along the way.
Season 5 is coming your way this December, and I can't wait to share what's next. We've got more fantastic guests lined up, some surprise themes, and maybe, just maybe, a few video episodes thrown into the mix. Maybe.
Plus, for Patreon members, there'll be some fun live recordings planned and exclusive extras that I think you're really going to enjoy.
So keep your podcast app close, stay subscribed, and if you haven't yet, come join a community over on Patreon at patreon.com/5rq. Thanks again for being part of the 5 Random Questions community. I truly appreciate each and every one of you for listening, for laughing, and for letting me and my guests keep you company.
Until the next time, stay. Stay curious, stay kind, and keep asking those questions.
