216 – Andrew Dewing – 2022: A Year In Review

Ep. 216
•

Well, it’s the final episode of 2022, and what a year of the podcast it’s been!

 

From droughts, heatwaves and floods, to war, politics and football, we’ve not been short of things to discuss (or rant about, in Andrew’s case!). We’ve recorded episodes across the UK and Europe (taking the podcast on tour), with our fabulous guest list including the top rugby stars Tom Youngs and Jack Van Poortvliet, and, of course, today’s top secret, special guest, to name a few.

 

This year, we shared a fair few beers and silly stories, delved into some deep topics and hit our milestone 200th episode, which we couldn’t have done without you. Thank you so much for tuning into the podcast every week, it wouldn’t be what is it without our listeners across the world, so this one’s for you!

 

From everyone at Dewing Grain, have a very merry Christmas and a happy new year! We’ll see you in January 2023…
