Contact: matt@metashift.co.uk When I first started this show as a fun side project, I had no real expectations of getting much of an audience. I could never have anticipated that four years and three-quarters of a million listens later I'd be publishing my 200th episode. I want to take this opportunity to say a huge thank you to everyone who has supported me and the show. My superb guests, my fabulous sponsors and most of all, everyone who has listened, subscribed, recommended, shared and given me feedback. The story doesn't end here, I've got some big plans for the future and as some fantastic guests lined up for the coming months. What better way to celebrate 200 episodes than with a live recording of the show. A few weeks back, I was on stage at the excellent RecFest event in London, and we recorded a live panel discussion on Recruiting Automation.
