2017 in a nutshell

I almost forgot to tally the numbers this year. Okay, let's have a look at how 2017 stacked up, quantitatively, to other years, since we began keeping track. We're on the air every week on Co-op Radio, but some weeks we run repeats – er, I mean, "special encore presentations" – and some weeks we come in sans guest and play comedy clips. The numbers below reflect the weeks we had new programming with guest(s):

• 2009 we had 42 shows
• 2010 we had 38 shows
• 2011 we had 44 shows with 53 guests
• 2012 we had 41 shows with 47 guests
• 2013 we had 35 shows with 37 guests
• 2014 we had 36 shows with 39 guests
• 2015 we had 36 shows with 40 guests
• 2016 we had 32 shows with 33 guests (and three visitors)

So coming off a career low year, how did 2017 look? First off, we added Sam Tonning to the show, and he's like a guest every week, but we won't count him.:

• 2017 we had 36 shows with 37 guests
