Wow!! Loved it!
I’m not a fan of sci-fi in general but this was fabulous! The actors, the story, and the sound design are wonderful. I had to binge it all in one day!

FREAKKKKKKY & FABULOUS❗️
I never binge but I did this time- Vanity & Technology collide with self doubt & body image taking us on psychological futuristic journey- I hope there is more to come🤞
Loved this
I binged the entire thing. I couldn’t turn it off. Listen to it now.
