Final Episode of the Marchionda Minutes!
On this last episode of the Marchionda Minutes podcast we hear from Simon who has a special message for his dad at the end of the show. His dad is off working in Afghanistan, so we ended on a nice touch. Every child who wished to be on the show has had an episode, so with a reflective eye to the past I end this season of podcasts! Thanks, kids, for being so entertaining and sharing with all of us about yourselves.
