Hilarious, Engaging Podcast With Awesome Characters

Ten episodes in, Salvage is turning out to be an extremely funny, surprisingly thought-provoking, and increasingly creepy story with charcters I love more and more with every passing episode. While it's inspired by Tsutomu Nihei's manga/anime series, Blame!, it's filtered through a tone that's more reminiscent of Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy for a wonderfully mood-whiplashy horror-comedy effect. The game master creates a world that is equal parts intriguing and disturbing, and Greg, Joe, and Ollie are charming, fully-fleshed-out characters that pull you into their adventures. I can't wait to see where the story goes next!

okey doke!

I adore this podcast! It’s a great mix of drama and humor, and world building. I’m already a big fan of all the player characters, and of Anna the crash test doll.

As an aspiring songwriter, I also really enjoy listening to Tori’s compositions. My fave so far is the song that plays while Anna is telling her story, but the theme is rad too—ya gotta love that cool cello vamp at the end! 🎻

YEE HAW

Fun story with great music! Ollie is my fave, Hobo Joe is quite funny, and Gregory is mysterious. Excited to learn more about the world and to watch the characters explore and grow closer together. Thanks Salvage crew!
