Kaleidotrope Podcast is a queer romantic comedy podcast set on a slightly magical college campus and playing around with romance tropes, particularly fanfiction tropes.
The plot centers around Drew and Harrison, two reluctant college radio co-hosts-turned-accidental-advice-givers who find themselves in the middle of the campus’s oldest mystery: Do happy endings really happen at Sidlesmith? Can you really find your trope?
And if the magic isn’t real, what does that mean for two polar opposites who find themselves falling for each other twice a week for half an hour on a suddenly popular radio show?

Holy carp the fluff
This entire podcast is just a will they won’t they of fluffy, romantic tension filled interactions and I’m HERE FOR IT!!! Super cute and sweet, great for a binge listen (believe me, 1000% worth it).
Super cute!!!
If you’re looking for a podcast with fluff and no high stakes other than love, this is a fantastic podcast. It’s nice to see something soft and gentle rather than intense “we gotta save the world!” Sometimes. Lovely podcast, awesome work guys! :D
Incredible incredible podcast!!
This show was sweet, funny, and poignant. Did I say funny? I meant absolutely hilarious! It’s an epic ode to love in all its forms, and the magic of choice, free will, and other people. Harrison and Drew make my heart happy, and it is in your best interest to meet them. If you’ve ever been in a fandom, if you’ve ever shipped anything, if you’ve ever felt alone in the world, this is the podcast for you.
