Season One Finale Announcement
00:00:06
Speaker
Hey, hey, and welcome back to our final episode of season one of On the Outside.
00:00:19
Speaker
friends. I cannot believe this is our final episode of season one. Once again it is your host Taylor Rae and this is it. I have recorded 36 episodes in our first season and this is my final one.
Reflecting on the Journey and Listener Gratitude
00:00:36
Speaker
I really just wanted to take the opportunity to reflect on the last
00:00:42
Speaker
Several months that I've been working on the show and really thank you guys for listening for supporting for reviewing and for just being along for the ride of Starting this podcast. I am so excited for the future of this show.
Exploring Outsider Identities
00:01:01
Speaker
I Started on the outside as you may know from my first few episodes because
00:01:08
Speaker
I've felt like an outsider so many times in my life and so many of you guys have also, whether it's because of our race, gender identity, sexuality, disabilities, mental illnesses, socioeconomic status, so many intersections of our identities, there are so many things.
00:01:33
Speaker
that have made so many of you that have been a part of this community feel like outsiders. What I found is that there is so, so, so much beauty and seeing that so many people really share those feelings, it doesn't diminish how hard it is because, you know,
00:01:53
Speaker
while so many people on this show talked about the ways that they felt like outsiders, those are not always things that we wear out on our sleeve when we walk around the world. So a lot of times you feel like you're the only one. I hope this season has really showed you that you're not the only one, that I see you, that I'm with you, and so many other people are as well.
Excitement for Future Seasons
00:02:16
Speaker
As I wrap up season one and reflect on this journey, I'm so excited for what's to come in future seasons. When I started planning for this first season, I already knew what I wanted to do up to season four. So I have the vision, I have a plan, and I really can't wait for you guys to see it.
00:02:36
Speaker
Next season, I'm so, so excited to be focusing more on the world of sports, fitness, and wellness and telling stories about ways that people have felt on the outside of those communities. As someone that found sports very late in life, as someone that became an athlete as an adult, this is a story that I have to share and there are so many other stories
00:03:03
Speaker
that i cannot wait to hear and to discuss as well i am hoping that over the next few weeks while we have a break between season one and season two that you guys just reach out let me know your thoughts
00:03:20
Speaker
share reviews on Apple podcasts and on Spotify, send me DMs to the on the outside Instagram or my personal Instagram and just let me know what you really loved about this season.
Audience Engagement and Feedback
00:03:31
Speaker
I tried three different formats for the show and definitely found some things that worked and that y'all responded to and some things that I'm not going to continue in the next season. Okay. But
00:03:44
Speaker
I knew there was gonna be a lot of trial and error. And I'm honestly really proud of myself for making it through, creating a product and a show that I felt and continue to feel really proud of that I think really sounds great and really reflects how I feel about the world around me and the world that I want to help create.
Encouraging Diverse Engagement
00:04:05
Speaker
Once again, thank you so much for being here with me, for listening.
00:04:11
Speaker
for engaging. I hope that you learned something. I hope that you are more open to engaging with the people that you might feel like have nothing in common with you and that you're really able to see that we are more alike than we are different. Not in the way that's, you know, ignorant of the forms of oppression that so many of us face.
00:04:36
Speaker
But just, you know, I think that you've seen that through this season that that could be true and all of the other things can be equally as true and real. I am so happy that I had the opportunity to bring this season to you. I cannot wait to look back on this five years from now and see where the podcast goes.
00:05:01
Speaker
And I think that's all for now, friends. Make sure you keep an eye out on social. That's where I'll be sharing when our next season's getting started. And that's it for me. That's it for season one. I see you. I'm with you. See you out there.
