  • I miss you!!

    Don’t know the backstory, but listening to your show nearly daily had become something I looked forward to. Our station has replaced your time slot with Freshair. It is lovely and inspiring, but airs 2x each day, so I would rather have the opportunity to listen to both. Hope you are all faring well and that you may return in some form or fashion soon!!!

  • Love this show

    I’m so sad it’s over, I recently started following this show on podcasts because I wanted to finish episodes I started hearing in the car. I really enjoyed that The Takeaway talked about interesting topics that were a little off the beaten path. They shared different perspectives and I really enjoyed it.
