That’s a wrap on Season 1 of Booked and Abandoned!
A short and sweet finale episode where we look back on our favourite moments, top guests, and the weirdest places this little podcast has taken us. There’s also a cheeky teaser for what’s coming in Season 2 if our guests ever turn up.
Huge thanks to @OratiaUnited for giving us a home base to record from, and to Mike Hadnett Photography for letting us borrow so many stunning snaps along the way.
And most importantly, thanks to every single guest who gave up their time. Whether you joined us in our “studio” or welcomed us into your homes, if not for you this would not have been possible.
