Coast Cards Podcast

Well, we made 18 episodes over 9 months and learned a lot about love and each other. This is the last episode of Season 2 and the last one we'll be recording for a while, but don't fret too much, eventually, Mandy's gonna start dating someone seriously AND THEN we'll be back! Until then thank you so much to everyone who listened and supported us in the creation of this show. It was work, but I truly enjoyed making it with one of my best friends. - Love Gus Gus P.S.
