Ends of jobs can be traumatic in general - I wonder if it’s especially so for radio, given the unusual factors involved, not least the scarceness of like-for-like equivalent jobs and the identity crisis that tends to engulf “radio people” when no longer “radio people”. Could be good for a podcast, but hard to make well! (If anyone does, I’ve got a story about one of my end-of-gig experiences which doesn’t feel right to share in a comments thread, but might just make you believe in something amazing!)
