Not very many podcasts have that long of a lifespan. Most stop a long time before that. In fact, I've heard some people say that the average podcast lasts about 12 to 15 episodes. I'm not sure how correct those numbers are. But we are fully committed to keeping this podcast going because talking to copywriters, content writers, and other marketers isn't just a learning experience for us, it's fun. You are our people, and talking to copywriters is honestly one of the most enjoyable things that we do every week. Having said that, there are a lot of great episodes you probably haven't listened to yet, especially if you've only been listening to the podcast for the last year or so. And even if you've heard every single episode, I'm tempted to wave at our mothers here, Kira, although my mom has passed, but your mom maybe is one of the few that's listened to every episode. Kira Hug:  She has not listened to every episode. Rob Marsh:  She should have. But if you've listened to every episode, you've probably forgotten some of the phenomenal advice that we've heard over the years. So we thought today we would share just a couple of clips from our back catalog so you can go back and check out some of these amazing interviews. It's a bit of a best of show episode for you today. Kira Hug:  But before we jump into all those episodes, this episode is sponsored by the Copywriter Think Tank, which is our mastermind. And we have a retreat coming up pretty soon actually, in June. Early June, we have a virtual retreat with all of our Think Tank members. It's one of my favorite parts of this mastermind and being a part of the Think Tank. It's also my favorite part of being in other masterminds that Rob and I are part of. The retreats are where, it's really cheesy, but that is where the magic happens. Because there's collaboration, you're talking about ideas, and you bring in brilliant people who can teach you something new that you can implement right away in your business.
