Just a name💅🏻 ,

Why?

This is so good but why did he make this?
In all seriousness I love it and will cry at the ending of tma because I love Jon and it seem this podcast loves to make him suffer so I assume fix it fics will be in order so thanks for ruining my life and sorry to anyone who reads this after they have started because it’s is too late now you can’t stop listening I have been listening for less then a week and have slept with the lights in more then once and I haven’t been afraid of the dark since I was like 6 so thank you I love this so much

Protectmore2 ,

Boring.

Honestly, I’m sure other people will find interesting but I found the tone somewhat annoying.

branmorgans ,

Magnus Protocol is Amazing!

The Magnus Protocol is already so good - I’m on the edge of my seat, cringing with horror and delight through each episode. Can’t wait for the rest of the season!
