A Year in Review: Our Favorite Moments and the Road Ahead

It has been an incredible twelve months of deep dives, research, and podcasting. Today, Lee, Alex, and Andrew are taking a step back from the 18th century to take a personal look at everything that has happened with Prime & Load over the past year. We want to take this opportunity to reflect on how much the show has grown, share our favorite moments from behind the mic, and talk candidly about what it takes to put these episodes together.

Most importantly, this episode is a huge thank you to everyone who listens. We're breaking down where the podcast is heading next and giving you a sneak peek at the new historical topics we plan to tackle in the coming year.

Topics Discussed:

• The Year in Review: A personal look back at our last 12 months of producing the show and how our approach has evolved.
• Standout Moments: Lee, Alex, and Andrew each share their favorite episodes, specific moments, and the most surprising things they learned this year.
• The Road Ahead: A preview of the historical campaigns, new ideas, and structural goals we are planning for the next year of the podcast.
