"Well, here we are… my very last Saturday Hours. I can hardly believe I’m saying that out loud. Nine years, countless songs, endless laughs, and so many moments I’ll never forget. From my little makeshift studio at home to this very moment, it’s been a journey that’s been bigger and better than I ever imagined.
I want to thank every single one of you who tuned in over the years — whether you were listening from your kitchen, your car, or your living room. You’ve made this show what it is. Your messages, your stories, your energy… it’s been the heartbeat of The Saturday Hours. And I’ll carry that with me forever.
To all the artists, guests, and friends who’ve joined me along the way: thank you for trusting me with your music, your stories, and your creativity. You’ve inspired me every single week.
And finally, to my listeners — my Saturday family — you’ve made this journey unforgettable. As we close this chapter, remember to keep the music alive, keep laughing, keep connecting, and never forget how powerful a good song, a good story, and a shared moment can be.
From the bottom of my heart, thank you. This is John Steemson, signing off from The Saturday Hours… for the very last time."
