This week we've gone back through the archives and picked out some of our favourite moments from across the Distant Pod universe, including highlights from the regular podcast, Michael Owen's Movie Club and Hoffi Pod . Unlike many podcasts, we don't really work in seasons. We don't disappear for two weeks, leave the feed empty and then return with a photo of a notebook claiming we've been developing ideas. We like putting something out every week. So whilst we're taking a short pause from the usual format, we've been revisiting some of the moments that made us laugh most, sparked the biggest listener reaction, or have become part of Distant Pod folklore. Part 2 will be out on Friday. And if you enjoy the wider Distant Pod universe — including Hoffi Pod, Michael Owen's Movie Club, Bonus Club and all the extra content — you can support the show and get access to loads more at: patreon.com/distantpod Thanks for listening. 🛍️ NEW MERCH ALERT We’ve launched a brand new merch store — mugs, hoodies, prints and more!
