Dear Listeners of CoasterRadio.com,

Thank you so much for being a part of our lives during the past two years. It was a great experience producing the show and we couldn't have done it without the support of the thousands of you who came along for the ride every week.

Working on this show reminded us of how much fun it is to go to an amusement park with your friends and forget about everyday life for awhile. We hope that listening to this podcast did the same thing for you.

There were a lot of great moments both on-air and off-air, but here are some of the highlights:

* We produced 80 original shows (about 48 hours of podcasting!)
* We produced 13 on-location shows at The Walt Disney World Resort, Holiday World, Hersheypark, Six Flags Over Georgia, Kennywood, Busch Gardens Europe, Knoebels, Paramount's Kings Dominion, Six Flags Great Adventure and Dorney Park.
* We were the only non-official podcast invited to the grand opening of Expedition Everest at Walt Disney World's Animal Kingdom.
* We were Commissioned by the State of Pennsylvania Office of Tourism to produce a "road trip podcast" to four of its amusement parks.
* We interviewed Disney Imagineers Joe Rohde (Expedition Everest), Eric Jacobson (Rock 'n' Roller Coaster) and Mike Lentz (Mission: Space).
* We interviewed Holiday World's Will Koch and several of the designers from The Gravity Group (The Voyage / Hades).
* We were featured on Adam Curry and iTunes' Podfinder podcast.
* We were featured in a July 2006 article about theme park podcasting in the amusement trade publication Funworld.

All of these things happened because we were able to point to an large, active and loyal group of listeners. Without you guys, the show would have never taken off.

This week, we present our series finale. It clocks-in around two hours long because we wanted to get in as many of your e-mails, voicemails and questions as possible.

We also have a few surprises in there for you as well, including an original song written for the end of our show by Deidre Rodman of the Lascivious Biddies.

Even though this is the end of the weekly version of CoasterRadio.com, we're hoping to keep this site alive to continue the friendships we have made while doing the show. We'll probably even produce new "special" episodes of the show during holidays and other times when it makes sense. So make sure you stay subscribed to our RSS feed!

We're also working on a new podcast that will hopefully premiere sometime in 2007. While it won't be strictly about coasters, I'm sure we won't be able to go very long without mentioning them once in awhile.

Thanks again for listening! We'll see you at the parks!

Your friends,
Mike, Mario, Flava, EB & Greg
