It's autumn, and since that usually means the return of Heavyweight, we wanted to say hello. We've been looking for a new home for the show, and should have more news to share with you very soon. Stay tuned!.

Here’s the thing about seasons: They’re seasonal. Take summer, for instance. When it ends, there’s no need for panic. Summer will come again. It’s just that the Gods who make summer require some production time. Season 4 of Heavyweight returns at the end of September.

Dear listeners—very exciting news for us. To those asking, Heavyweight will still be available wherever you get your podcasts, not just on Spotify. But maybe our new bosses will be more generous with the travel budget than @abexlumberg.

Really sad about the layoffs today at Spotify. A lot of these people have been at Gimlet since the very beginning. They’ve helped us with edits over the years. They were friends of ours. They’re the most talented people in audio, and we were lucky to work with them.
