They did post Roy Green’s final episode earlier this year, so there is a point to it. Generously we could say they are being inconsistent about it but it makes you wonder what they are trying to hide.

No, there was no point in podcasting Green's last show.

Podcasts are a promotional tool for the shows, and there's no show to promote. It was also a half-assed going-through-the-motions finale.

Lol, so was Oakley's.

But on the larger point of show podcasts - if there is no point to posting the finale, then shouldn't all episodes be taken offline and essentially disappeared?

Takes time to do that for no reward

If there is a reward to leaving an extinct show available, then post the finale.

Is there no such thing as a backend "hide channel/playlist" option?
