Josh and Tim have decided to hang up the mics and bring The Education of Tim Chang to an end after 20 episodes. However, before they do, Josh gives Tim the chance to show him something, and that something is the Japanese anime series Naruto. Will Josh be able to stay awake through 3 hours of anime? Will there be butt humor? Will the boys cry at the end? Listen and find out!
Also, thank you to everyone who listened and encouraged us along the way. This podcast was a ton of fun to make, and we both are very thankful for the experience and the support.

Tim educates Josh for the series finale!
