In this one-off special episode of Bigger Movie Pod, we pay tribute to our dear friend and fellow presenter, Dave. We are thrilled to have his daughter, Emma, joining us as our special guest. We are also pleased to welcome back Darren, our former presenter, as we say our farewell.
What began as a duo blossomed into a podcast family of four, plus a whole community of friends. We had big plans for this episode, hoping to bring everyone together, but time was not on our side. Earlier this year, we received heartbreaking news about Dave. Leading up to this final show, we collected messages from the podcast community to share with him, including heartfelt words from Dan of Casting Views and a touching note from Nico of Silver Screen Dudes and Movie Mount Rushmore.
A huge thanks goes out to PollyAnnamazing from Buried Pleasures, who connected with us like family, even reaching out to Dave directly—a gesture he truly appreciated. We also want to recognize Josh from TalkingSMAC, Stew from Stew World Order, Ian from Best Film Ever, The Vern from Cinema Recall, as well as Leo, Le-Than, Slinky, and Wes for all their support.
And of course, a massive thank you to all of you, our listeners. Your support and enthusiasm have kept this journey going, and we could not have done it without you. So, tune in as we celebrate the laughs, the friendships, and all the memories that have made Bigger Movie Pod what it is. Thank you for being part of the ride!
