    That's a Wrap on Season 5, and When to Expect Season 6
    2026/03/26

    Season 5 has officially wrapped, and before I take a short break, I just wanted to jump on the mic and say… thank you.

    Season 6 will be dropping mid-April, and I can’t wait for you to hear what’s coming next, with more fantastic guests, more unexpected conversations, and plenty more moments where you might laugh, think, or just go, “Wait… what?”

    So make sure you’re following the show wherever you get your podcasts, and keep an eye out for Season 6 when it lands.

    Thanks again for being part of the 5 Random Questions community. I truly appreciate each and every one of you.

    Until next time… stay curious, stay kind, and keep asking those questions.
