Customer Reviews
Smart work
What this podcast gets right it gets so, so right. The depiction of mental health struggles is particularly incredible, and the device of having a character’s negative self talk muted in the background during stressful situations is both brilliantly true and a perfect use of the medium. A definite recommend and looking forward to the next season.
Very Entertaining
Listened to this while helping my daughter with a tedious project. It really made the time fly.
Wow
The realest, most human podcast I’ve ever listened to, fiction or nonfiction- and that’s no small feat. Wonderful, fleshed out characters, paired with an immersive world, with plenty of representation for minority groups. This podcast fills me with hope.
