    03:36||Season 2, Ep. 5
    With more than 100,000 views and listens across episodes and social media clips, I'm so proud of what this podcast accomplished and thankful for all the support. Two years after I first thought of the idea for the show, this marks the final episode of the Hear To Listen (HTL) podcast. I've been putting most of my focus into my standup comedy, as well as content creation on my personal channels on YouTube, TikTok and Instagram (@RyanDurgy), so this felt like the right time to wrap up the Hear To Listen podcast after two seasons and many incredible conversations. I'm so grateful for the creative outlet this show gave me and all the people I had the opportunity to interview. Also, thank you to all of you for your support 🤍 It means the world to me. Feel free to follow along on my personal channels. Thanks again for everything. - Ryan Durgy
