Great Journey
Thank you to the creators 100 eps, bittersweet to end the story but great storytelling. Loved it so much.
I want to like this but
The missing author’s voice is so fake and unbelievable. It sounds like she’s just reading a script, not like she’s actually a Stephen king level famous author. Nevermind the mispronounced words from a supposedly best-selling author, she seems uninterested in what she’s even saying and she sighs her way through each script with a grating vocal fry. She doesn’t sound like someone thinking and recording stream-of-consciousness journal entries. Her parts are not that great to listen to. Honestly, I end up tuning her out and then having to re-listen multiple times just to be able to follow the plot. I hope that it doesn’t drag the rest of the storytelling down, but getting through her parts are definitely a chore. Also, did you know she smokes weed? Because they’re definitely going to tell you that she smokes weed and loves getting high every 5 minutes. Even when it’s not relevant to the plot.
The main detective is a bit flat as well, but is consistent enough that he sounds pretty true to the character he’s portraying and not like someone who is just bored and reading a script. Being bored/annoyed/exasperated is part of his character.
Going on forever
I am somewhere in the 40 something episodes and the podcast has turned into a dull meandering of single characters droning into whatever recording device they have. I am no longer interested in the missing Anna, is she missing still I don’t really even know or care anymore. The sense that the array of people experiencing things and not advancing the story has the feeling of no resolution in sight. I am about to check out entirely. Three stars for the strong start and decent production and good voicing and sound design.
