The paladin of Golota episode #35

I’ve listened to thousands of short stories on so many podcasts like Starship Sofa, Escape Pod, Tales to Terrify, Pod Castle, Nightmare Magazine, Clarkesworld, and so many more. Without a doubt “The Paladin of Golota” was the absolute BEST most epic story I have ever heard. I don’t think I could adequately describe how perfect and well written this story is so I’ll just say that you have to listen to it for yourself. I promise you won’t be disappointed!!

Crispin’s Model

Great story, narrator needs to work on her delivery. Her inflections and reading of the words lacks.

Cole123- ,

So satisfying

I can’t wait for the episode drop each week
