On January 15th, 2025, the world of cinema lost one of the greatest storytellers to ever come into the medium in David Lynch. A nearly 40 years career that spanned the medium of not only film but television, art, music, books and even becoming a world class speaker. In the winter of 2023, we sat out to make a David Lynch podcast called the “Big Dream Podcast”. This podcast would have spanned the entirety of Lynch’s career. However, timing was the enemy and the podcast never made its way past the pilot episode. This is that pilot episode with filmmaker David Gayne. Enjoy and may David Lynch rest in peace.
