    Introducing: Limited Capacity

    Introducing: Limited Capacity

    Limited Capacity is a collection of six short stories about the strange and twisted ways we interact with the internet, and with each other. Each immersive episode is packed with intimate and jarring stories that are both completely familiar and somehow confoundingly alien. It’s like Black Mirror for your ears. From the fiendishly clever mind of Rob Norman, co-creator of the hit podcast Personal Best. More episodes are available at: smarturl.it/limitedcapacity

I can’t believe someone agreed to produce this

I am so glad the CBC let you do this

Excellent, humourous podcast

Somewhere between “Nathan for You” and Gimlet’s “Heavy weight”. Very absurd but also very touching at times.

One of my favourite cbc podcasts, I hope they make some new episodes once things go back to normal.
