My brother Mike Evans lost his mother earlier this month. He just needed to vent and let some things off his chest. i was happy to oblige. If you have been in his shoes you will appreciate the conversation. If you haven't been in his shoes, you will at some point.

Well.. The the time has come to say farewell from all of us who have contributed to the Smells Like Middle-Aged Spirit Podcast! Thank you to everyone who pushed play on our content for nearly 4 years. The show ends the way it began, Nick Stevenson and Chris Clark sitting down and having an honest and sincere conversation. We know we have grown from this experience, and we hope that you have grown from listening to us. Our biggest goal was to start conversations that matter, between people who may have otherwise never had the opportunity.

What if a couple nobodies from Texas, changed the world? We may not have changed the planet, but we changed our little sliver of the world. There are too many people to thank but we tried to give all of your flowers with this episode! Til we meet again friends!!

To be, or not to be... That is certainly a question that I believe deserves an answer. There is certainly a divide on what woke means. Is it good? Is it bad? Should we fight against it? Should we fight for it? I have a take on this and I'm likely coming from a prospective you never thought of before. I only ask that you challenge what you think you know.

It goes without saying that Season 4 had been a lot of fun. We took risks and tired new things and whether 500 people tuned in or less than 100, we have had fun and are proud of what we’ve done. But there are times life dictates the the fun will have to wait. Toward the end of the season that began to happen. Since we fell behind we decided tonight will be our mid-season finale and we will wrap up the season after the summer. Tonight we catch up, we embrace one another as family, and we invite you to do the same with us.
