That's a Wrap on Season 5, and When to Expect Season 6

Speaker: 00:00:01

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.
