Ever wondered how a couple of law enforcement and firefighting professionals found their way into the world of podcasting? Join us as we recount our incredible 14-year journey that we started with the “show that shall not be named”, The Crossover Show. From the nerve-wracking early days of audio editing struggles to the joy of connecting with our amazing patrons, this final episode is packed with nostalgia, laughter, and heartfelt memories. We take you behind the scenes of our most cherished episodes, including the chaos of our spontaneous live shows and the hilarity of our never-realized "drunk show."
Relive the evolution of podcasting through our eyes, from our humble beginnings with GarageBand and Audacity to mastering Pro Tools and Rodecaster. We'll share the technical bumps and triumphs, the quirks of early SEO practices, and the thrill of reaching wider audiences through improved accessibility. Our journey was filled with memorable mishaps and learning curves, all of which we recount with gratitude and a sense of accomplishment.
But it's not just about the technical side—our podcast forged unforgettable friendships and personal growth. We touch on significant milestones, both personal and professional, and how they've intertwined with our podcasting adventure. From impromptu "Ask MC" segments to pop culture banter and family milestones, this episode is a celebration of the camaraderie and joy that defined "The Crossover." Join us for one last ride as we bid farewell to a journey that has brought us immense joy and lasting memories.
