Customer Reviews
So good, I felt guilty not paying for it
I’ve never been much into podcasts, as I could never find one that kept my attention. That all changed during a recent road trip, when I stared listening to The Program, and was instantly hooked!
During the trip, I had been listening to the Program on Spotify. As soon as I got home I dug through my unused apps folder to find Apple Podcasts. I went immediately to the subscription page and signed up. Not knowing me, it probably doesn’t sound like much, but my wife nearly had a heart attack with the thought of me spending money on something like a podcast. But, THE PROGRAM IS WORTH EVERY CENT!!
In all honesty, I love the added episodes and no commercials, but my main reason for subscription was because the podcast was so good, I felt guilty listening for free. You can read other people’s reviews for more information on the actual show, because I could talk for hours about it. All I will say is that this is the first podcast I have ever found where I was compelled to not only write a review but also pay a monthly subscription for it. Listen to a few free episodes, and then don’t be surprised when you feel compelled to subscribe as well!!
When the program becomes reality, I want in!!
listen to it.
Truly one of the best audio-dramas I’ve ever heard. Wise, philosophical, witty, and covering a wide array of genres this piece of speculative fiction gives us a good look at where we’re going but a clear and concise lesson on how we can change that.
So glad I gave this one a listen. The Program comes for us all. Might as well get ahead of it.
Listen to it now
If you listen to this podcast now you’ll get to brag about it one day when it blows up and gets the attention it deserves. You’ll get to say “I knew about it before it went mainstream”
I’m only playing. But for real..this show is so freaking good! I respect the creator for refusing to use anything owned by Facebook to advertise this podcast or even post about it. It would be better known if he did but I still love that he hasn’t. No matter, the podcast will become very well known eventually. There’s no way it won’t.
