It's a fun way to poke fun and reminisce about our time making the podcast. This is the final, final episode of The Middle School Mind podcast and thank you to all who were part of this amazing ride. For all you middle school kids out there listening to us. You can make your own podcast easily. You guys have amazing ideas and get your voices out there!

Son also discusses the pitfalls of social media and the importance of finding a trustworthy teacher. Tune in for a humorous and honest recap of middle school life!

2.12 The Goodbye Episode

As the saying goes, all good things must come to an end. After months of deliberation and soul-searching Father and Son publish their last and final episode of The Middle School Mind [themiddleschoolmind.com] podcast. After nearly 18 months and over 35+ episodes, on this episode: * We say goodbye to our listeners * We talk about what's next for Son * We hear from some of our past guests * Of course we get a little silly * And we play one last game So sit back, relax, grab the Kleenex and stick around for our very special goodbye episode. We think kid's voices are under represented in the podcast space. Even though we are leaving, we encourage you to visit Kids Listen [https://app.kidslisten.org/]. This organization is a grassroots organization of advocates for high-quality audio content for children. The Middle School Mind is a proud member of Kids Listen and, with our show ending, we encourage kids and families to find other interesting and engaging podcasts for kids. Through this adventure, we connected with the creator of Sound Carrot [https://soundcarrot.com/]. This website was founded by a father/daughter team with the goal to help younger listeners find amazing children's podcasts. We hope this resource helps parents and kids find other kid's voices that you want to listen to and hear more from. We also believe that kids can create their own podcasts! Last summer we launched a three-part series encouraging kids to make their own kids' podcasts. You can find the episodes here: * 1.20 Make Your Own Kid Podcast 1 [https://themiddleschoolmind.com/episode-1-20-make-your-own-kid-podcast-1/] * 1.21 Make Your Own Kid Podcast 2 [https://themiddleschoolmind.com/episode-1-21-make-your-own-kid-podcast-2/] * 1.22 Make Your Own Kid Podcast 3 [https://themiddleschoolmind.com/episode-1-22-make-your-own-kid-podcast-3/] Thank you to The Middle School Mind listeners and even our future listeners. We enjoyed making these episodes together and sharing them with you. This time was special for us and we will look back at this show as an amazing point in time where we talked about what was on Son's mind or relevant pop culture during this time. If you loved listening to the show and want to connect with us, e-mail us at: middleschoolmind.podcast@gmail.com [middleschoolmind.podcast@gmail.com]. We are happy to connect if you want to talk about creating your own podcast for your child or, potentially, if you are interested in having your middle schooler take over The Middle School Mind, let's chat. We always knew that The Middle School Mind was going to last at most, 3 years, with Son and I. But amazing shows like Star Trek had Star Trek: The Next Generation and Saved By The Bell had Saved By The Bell: The New Class introduced a new cast of characters while providing new stories and fresh perspectives. It would be amazing to have a Mother/Daughter voice leading the show or a parent/child from a different part of the country or even a completely different country! It's the unique perspectives that help us all learn and appreciate each other. Enjoy The Goodbye Episode and thank you for being part of our show. Sincerely, Father & Son
