Hey there, Danny here. Season 5 has officially wrapped, and before we take a
Speaker:
00:00:05
short break, I just wanted to jump on the mic and say thank you.
Speaker:
00:00:09
Because honestly, this season, it's been one for the ages. Let's start with a few highlights.
Speaker:
00:00:15
This season, 5 Random Questions was featured by Apple Podcasts,
Speaker:
00:00:19
which is one of these weird moments where you kind of double check you're reading it right.
Speaker:
00:00:22
Like, really, this show? The one where I ask people completely random questions?
Speaker:
00:00:27
Well, apparently yes, and I'm not complaining.
Speaker:
00:00:30
On top of that, the show is also featured in Forbes, and to see a format built
Speaker:
00:00:35
on curiosity, conversation, and a little bit of unpredictability getting that
Speaker:
00:00:40
kind of recognition, it's very cool.
Speaker:
00:00:42
And one of my favourite milestones this season?
Speaker:
00:00:45
Welcoming 1,900 new listeners to the show.
Speaker:
00:00:48
That's 1,900 more people who decided, yep, I'll give this a go,
Speaker:
00:00:52
and stuck around for the weird, the thoughtful and the occasionally chaotic
Speaker:
00:00:55
moments that come from asking questions you don't usually hear on a podcast.
Speaker:
00:00:59
So if you're one of these new listeners, welcome. You've joined a pretty awesome community.
Speaker:
00:01:04
Of course, none of this happens without the people on the other side of the mic.
Speaker:
00:01:08
So to every guest who joined me in season five, thank you.
Speaker:
00:01:12
Thank you for saying yes, for leaning into the randomness and for sharing answers
Speaker:
00:01:17
that were honest, funny, surprising and sometimes a little bit deeper than expected.
Speaker:
00:01:22
That's what makes the show what it is. Those moments where a simple question
Speaker:
00:01:26
turns into something memorable.
Speaker:
00:01:28
A big thank you as well to everyone in the podcasting industry who supported the show this season.
Speaker:
00:01:33
Whether that's through sharing episodes, featuring the podcast,
Speaker:
00:01:36
or just being part of the wider community that lifts indie creators up.
Speaker:
00:01:40
And then there's you, the listeners.
Speaker:
00:01:43
Whether you've been here from the early days, or you just discovered a show
Speaker:
00:01:46
this season, thank you for hitting play each week, for sharing episodes and
Speaker:
00:01:50
for making 5 Random Questions part of your routine.
Speaker:
00:01:54
Every listen, every share, every message, it all adds up more than you might
Speaker:
00:01:58
think. So truly, thank you.
Speaker:
00:02:01
I'm going to take a short break now, just a little pause to reset,
Speaker:
00:02:04
line up some new conversations and come up with even more questions that probably
Speaker:
00:02:08
shouldn't be asked, but will be anyway.
Speaker:
00:02:11
Season 6 will be dropping mid-April and I can't wait for you to hear what's coming next.
Speaker:
00:02:15
With more fantastic guests, more
Speaker:
00:02:17
unexpected conversations and plenty more moments where you might laugh,
Speaker:
00:02:21
think or even just go wait what so make
Speaker:
00:02:25
sure you follow the show wherever you get your podcasts and keep an eye out
Speaker:
00:02:28
for season six when it lands thanks again for being part of the 5 Random Questions
Speaker:
00:02:33
community i truly appreciate each and every one of you until the next
Speaker:
00:02:37
time stay curious stay kind and keep asking those questions.
