Finally Friday: The Farewell Show - September 27, 2024

This is the playlist from Finally Friday’s Farewell Special, which aired on September 27, 2024. Sonny, the show’s founder, returned for one last job and our former co-host Danny sneaked out of work to join us for a moment! It was a little sad, but overall I’m pleased with how it went and it was great to have everybody back one last time.

I, Operator OT, want to thank Sonny for letting me on as a co-host, and for all the times we hung out doing the show; Danny, for coming on when we did; and to everyone who listened to the show over the years!

The rest of the playlist is under the cut…
