They made a fuss about Dustin a) because of how long he’d been there and b) because of the way he revolutionized the presentation, from being an audio only show to a video show. The end of that episode, in which pete notes “your hands and heart will always be on everything we do” and Craig’s “I owe my life to you” will always stick with me.
Then there was the short video announcement from JL when she left...
Then the company grew and grew, technology moved even further faster ahead and video content almost became the new norm- I know I watch way more Dis content than I listen to now, and that wasn’t always the case. The team grows, the product diversifies, things move faster and faster... people are naturally going to come and go at a faster rate. Whilst it would be “nice”, I don’t think it’s practical to keep tabs on who’s doing what/leaving etc.
They did also mention at the time some other guy that left, but the questions keep coming to this day... whatever happened to Oliver?
