Engrossing!
I can’t think of a way to accurately describe what this podcast is about or the feelings it elicits. I wasn’t prepared. I’m a horror fanatic but I had recently gotten bored with my usual horror content. It started to feel like everything was just a ripoff, a lazily executed ripoff, of all the story’s I’ve seen or heard previously. This is so different. It’s brilliant, engrossing, melancholic, and one of the best podcasts I’ve stumbled across. It’s so unusual yet niche that it can’t possibly be for everyone. But for those it is for, it’s a rare gem. Even by episode 12, I was still questioning whether I ‘got it’ or not. I’m still questioning if I’ve interpreted everything right. The thing that bothers me is a weird effect between ‘scenes’. It’s a whoooooosh that’s alot louder than the VA. It becomes very excessive in some episodes. If the writing were any less stellar I would’ve probably ditched it simply for that ‘whooooosh’. Oh and the pronunciation of the name ‘Jacoby’. He said ‘juh-KOE-be’ at first, then suddenly switched it up to ‘JAC-a-be’. That was pretty obnoxious, but those are literally the only two complaints I can come up with and they’re pretty trivial.

The writing and storytelling is fabulous - I love that the...Read full review »

I saw the 5 star rate and thought this must be pretty good. I listened to the first episode and thought “ what is all this hype about? It’s good but not amazing” and I’m now in maybe the 10th episode and I AM BLOWN AWAY. THIS IS the best writing, I’ve seen, in maybe a year; the voice actors do a...Read full review »

Sometimes, fiction and metaphor speaks more clearly and truthfully about actual lived horror than factual non-fiction can. There is such in this podcast, accompanied by beautiful and sometimes heartbreaking writing, diverse cast, and excellent sound design that makes Eskew and the characters you...Read full review »
