A.R. Olivieri's work always leaves me wanting more. They craft these exquisite micro-episodes that tell a larger story of a fascinating world. There is no spoon-feeding here; this is not the kind of podcast you listen to while half-distracted. It is the kind that completely ropes you in, painting pictures inside your mind and drawing you into the characters' lives. The music is lush and adds to the story.

LOVE all of A.Rs podcasts, just wanted to say I am now OBSESSED with this song by STATEN. Had to look it up on YouTube and add it to my playlist!

It seems like this entire series was recorded on one 90 minute long file then cut up into 5 minute pieces. Next, 3 minutes of a song and pauses were addded to stretch the overall length. The actual plot is filled with characters making statements that don’t make any sense until further episodes. The listener will probably spend most of their time confused and frustrated. But, the story is interesting and has potential to be a lot better.

The acting lets you get lost in the story, which is deeper than you think. It starts out slow and changes gears, but grabs your hand to pull you along for the ride.
