The Peter Pan Syndrome Podcast – Details, episodes & analysis

The due date for our podcasting platform is creeping up, and we've chosen not to renew for the time being. The time and attention our son Aaron needs makes episodes very hard to record and upload. While the money for podcasting is fair, the ratio of cost to episodes released would not be worth it in our opinion. We LOVE doing the show and plan to record in the off season until we can return. Thank you for being a listener, and we hope you'll still be one when we return.

Topics Include:
-We'll be gone for awhile.
-Podcasting costs money.
-Podcasters either don't have kids or have older kids.
-PP Syndrome Pod Socials will remain active.
-Future of the show
