assalamualaikum wa rahmatulahi wa barakatu, I've decided to end this season off here. I know it's a bit of an abrupt end but I hope you enjoyed Season 2! Listen to the end regarding upcoming plans, insha'Allah. There were more episodes that were pre-recorded but I've made a hard choice to not edit or publish them just because I think with the way TCB is currently headed, I wanted to keep the content consistent with what is being shared on our social media platforms. That being said, we are always open to feedback and if you have ideas for mini-series, do send us a DM on Instagram, insha'Allah! Thank you for your support and may Allah allow us to continue benefiting ourselves and each other, ameen! *there might be a bonus episode before Ramadan, insha'allah, so look out for that!*
