The Amateurs are going on strike, or hiatus, or something. The amateur season is winding down with all the Carolina teams eliminated from the playoffs. We would like to thank everyone who's listened, supported, or shook our hands at games. We might be back one day, but if you want more coverage of amateur soccer in your area, be the one to make it. Chris wrote a thing a few years back to explain how he got started on a budget. The equipment might be a bit dated, but here it is for y'all to check out: https://medium.com/@ChrisDavisCLT/podcasting-on-a-budget-7254d8a5652a
