Afflicted

Good podcast, is there gonna be more to it? I think it needs more demonic to it. And less zombie. There are is so many zombie podcasts, and shows already. But anyways, I give it four stars.

Bravo!

Don’t listen to these candyarses that say this podcast are awful, awful is QCODE, this podcast is one of the best stories to come around in awhile, let’s get this podcast going again!

Lame

Too many annoying voices in this podcast, and some very bad acting as well. I listened to the first two episodes, and I doubt that I will continue.

The blatant virtue signaling of the writers is also extremely off putting. Land acknowledgements in FICTION? Please…..
