Radio Free Arthur S2E25: A Farewell to Arthur

Radio Free Arthur S2E25: A Farewell to Arthur

Author: Arthur Newspaper April 10, 2025 Duration: 59:54

The time has come: the last Radio Free Arthur episode with your beloved co-hosts has arrived.

Through two seasons of this show and the immense privilege of bringing you a slice of Arthur every week on the airwaves, all good things truly must come to an end.

Abbigale and Evan had hoped to end this show on a more somber and hopeful note. That is until the mayor of Peterborough, Jeff Leal, dropped a racial slur during a guest lecture at Trent University.

The news, so they say, stops for no one.
