Down

First of all. Pro tip: skip one minute into every episode to miss that voice saying “definitely human” twice at the beginning and do the same at the end to avoid the painfully slow end credits. This should definitely be compiled into a feature length episode. It’s good fun, some interesting plot points and characters that grow on you.

This could have been so much better. There’s very few ppl sounding like they are on a very high tech mission in the most advanced sub on the planet. The one thing that’s really burying this is captain pugwash. He’d be better off in charge of a one man toy sub so he can argue with himself all day and not seriously annoy everyone with his useless and wrong decision making, hijacking the entire mission when they are clearly on a scientific one and as a captain he has no business making those decisions in this scenario. Bit ridiculous tbh.

I usually have no problems with unlikable characters but this podcast keeps painfully forcing their conflict. It makes the characters act so laughably unprofessional, immature and incapable of sensible rational thinking that it doesn’t fit the premise. These are supposed to be expert professional adults, not a bunch of high schoolers. The acting is also bordering on karricature.

The robot voice at beginning and end of the episode literally hurts, would be sooo much better without it.
