Sorry, Partner

Show Notes

We are absolutely thrilled to announce that Sorry, Partner has won the IBPA Alan Truscott Memorial Award.

Alan Truscott was the long-time bridge editor of The New York Times, and was an IBPA Executive member, serving as its president from 1981 to 1985. The Alan Truscott Memorial Award is presented periodically to an individual or organisation that, in the opinion of the IBPA Executive, has done something in the world of bridge that Alan would have approved of and appreciated.

Thank you to the IBPA for this recognition.

This honour reflects the generosity of our guests, the loyalty of our listeners, and the global bridge community that has welcomed the show so warmly since its launch. What began as a conversation between two bridge partners has grown into a program heard in more than 170 countries, and we’re deeply grateful for that support.

Thank you to everyone who listens, shares the show, writes to us, and champions thoughtful, independent audio. Support this show http://supporter.acast.com/sorry-partner. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
