Going OBA Quick Update: Going OB Is Taking a TimeoutGoing OB is going offline for a few weeks — but for a good reason. I’m taking this time to rework the look and feel of the show, lock in new guests, and build something bigger for the new year.
This quick update explains what’s coming, why the reset matters, and how Going OB is levelling up for 2026.
I’ll be supporting the launch of the Fore Everyone podcast on the GoingOB Network behind the scenes. Oliver and Martin have some great guests and ideas so go give them a listen.
The comeback starts in January. Let’s do this.
