[RERUNS] C2F: Finally our Final Finale (Channel 2 Grand Finale) - orig. rel. 12/28/24

2026 Show Notes Addendum:Much like the so-called "boss parade" which immediately precedes the final boss battle in so many video games, as I work on producing the grand finale arc of Channel 1 (planned for three installments, though being only two is not completely out of the question), I wanted to fill in the blanks in the aftermath of the Channel F grand finale, "A Fond Farewell to F" with other similar moments in Nerd Noise Radio history - such that by the time all is said and done, between reruns and fresh episodes, Nerd Noise Radio ends with a mini-series of conclusions. The idea being that if you listen to nothing but the Ch F finale to the end, you will get at least the thumbnail of the entirety of Nerd Noise Radio history. A kind of five month zip file of a decade-long run.I'll plan on releasing the two or three part Ch 1 grand finale arc, as well as our grandest of all grand finales NNR total finale over the month of December 2026, so that we put down the mic within days of the decade anniversary of our first picking it up. But as for the gap between early September's "A Fond Farewell to F" and early December's "The Diamond Episode - pt 1", I thought I'd fill the time with re-sharing, first, 2024's Channel 2 grand finale "Finally our Final Finale" in October, followed by both parts of the 2019 Ch 1 episodes 1-49 retrospective "The Golden Episode" mini-series, since the upcoming "The Diamond Episode" is the exact same idea for episodes 51-100 that "The Golden Episode" was for episodes 1-49.So, with that, we'll start with "Finally our Final Finale" - which, with all the Fs involved between "Finally our Final Finale" and "A Fond Farewell to F", I would not fault anybody for getting confused with which one was the Ch 2 finale and which was the Ch F finale. but I can assure you, today's rerun is the farewell to Ch 2 - all 5.5hrs of it (the longest individual contribution to date of our retrospectives, with the upcoming installments NOT expected to exceed it) - and....yes....an episode where I (St. John), do indeed cry on the mic (VERY briefly) in the immediate aftermath of the Prune track - before Hugues very quickly snaps me out of it). See the (otherwise unmodified) original 2024 C2F show notes below, and be prepared for the two part 2019 Golden Episode in November, before, finally, our collection of "final salvos" in December.....and then.....that's it for Nerd Noise Radio. Stay tuned. And meanwhile, please enjoy today's rebroadcast of C2F: Finally
