After she died, my dad sold our house to down size to an apartment. While we were doing a last due diligence walk through to make sure that we got everything, I found this loon sitting in the window of our laundry room. My dad was going to leave it for the next person, but I grabbed and took it home.
So yeah, I love me a stupid Canadian wolf bird. But the loon is also embedded in good memories of my mom. #wolfbird

Since loons are on our minds right now, I'm sharing my loon. When I was growing up my mom had her "loonie room" which was my old bedroom (I'd moved to the basement like a cool teenager). It was her craft room and had a loon themed wallpaper border and everyone kept giving her loon themed items. Eventually it was redecorated and loons gradually disappeared.

We started Agents of SMOOCH on Valentine's Day 2020, so it is fitting we end on Valentine's Day 2026. Thanks to everyone who participated and everyone who listened. We leave you with lots of memories and recommendations. My heart was full.

Final Love Fest (Agents of SMOOCH 142)

Welcome to our last mission to say goodbye to the Agency. It seems fitting that we do this on Valentine’s Day, exactly six years after we started. We’ve gathered a collection of Agents to reminisce about some favourite episodes, provide recommendations for what we should have talked about, and get sentimental about memories of the past 6 years. We are glad you are here to join us on our final love fest to celebrate what was and where you can continue to find us on the Incomparable mission. We love our listeners! Thank you for being Agents of SMOOCH with us.
