This is a podcast that knows how create atmosphere. The sound design, script, and performances combine to make it feel as if you’re hearing an intimate recording from a real town not too far away your own. Rosemary Hills is a lovingly designed little world and its few inhabitants are utterly...Read full review »

For all the warmth and comfort this show evokes, it’s easy to forget it takes place over a couple of weeks in a tiny gated community built around a golf course. Cleaning out the attic is a sad and beautiful process, where you find that amazing childhood toy that once fed wild mental adventure,...Read full review »

As others have said, when I started this I wasn’t sure if I was going to like it. Deirdre, the MC and who we hear for the majority of the first couple eps, is very much trying to Put On a Show, and it’s not working. But as the layers get unpeeled, as her vulnerability becomes clear, and as we...Read full review »

Every time that opened plays: “IT MAKES A SOUND!” I get goosebumps.

After working full days at the hospital, getting to drive home listening to It Makes a Sound has been a highlight. After finishing the second season, I’m going to go back and listen all over again. Many thanks to all the creative minds who put their time and effort into this wonderful product!

When this podcast first had a preview episode (the first episode) on another feed, I kinda wrote it off. Then there was a preview for episode 3, and it started to click. This is a podcast about the power of music and community. It's about caretakers, it's about family. It's about...Read full review »

The long-awaited second season has been a delight to dive into. It has lost none of its charm and somehow gained some. Those Nightvale guys blew it when they didn’t keep this podcast in their network.

OKAY. I have to admit that this show didn’t hook me immediately, but when it did…it snagged me good. Its like this perfect memory from your childhood that you polish up all nice and shiny, so it glows so bright and blurs out all the sadness and all the little imperfections you felt in that...Read full review »

As Phil says in the newest episode as of me writing this, in season one it got better as time went on. I can’t claim to have any experience with what either Deidre or Emma are going through because I have no family in that situation but it really sucked me in. I almost felt like I had another...Read full review »

I fell in love with this series in season one. It was quirky, funny, sweet, with the sort of exquisite desparation that we experience from time to time in our lives that causes us to retreat into nostalgia. It spoke to me on a very personal level. I rolled with Dierdre and the band through...Read full review »

It Makes a Sound is a quiet, beautiful slice of life that feels like a breath of fresh air while being seen by a long lost friend. The music lifts you up, and the story keeps you coming back.
cahaupt13 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/17/22
The first two episodes of S1 are awkward and could be off putting. By the middle of episode 3, I was started to get interested in the mystery and kept thinking “Wait. What just happened?” Once into episodes 4 and 5, I HAD to finish the story, and it’s not what you think. Knowing this was from...Read full review »

I started listening to this when someone I loved was going through Mental health issues and it got me through some rough times. Now I have the album and am listening to season 2 feeling inspired! It’s got a lot of heart to how they find the music and it makes me just down right excited when I...Read full review »

…to an artful tale of memory, nostalgia, and the dynamics of dementia, aging, and coming of age. The first season’s infectious music and narrative that gained cohesion as the tapestry of story was woven has gained a new, even more powerful and impactful depth with this second season. The music...Read full review »
Calla P.O. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/06/22
This podcast is wonderful. Weird, funny, so emotional, killer music, mega 90s nostalgia. I recently relistened to the first season for the second time, before the second season was announced. What a delightful surprise after so long. The second season plot line with Emma really resonates me as...Read full review »

I missed this show! So glad it’s back :D

Season One was magical: how do you follow that? Well, Season 2 is doing a great job and more people need to get on board. Excellent, heartfelt storytelling.
Marty Sugar via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 07/03/22
Absolutely love this show. It’s wholesome but sad, funny but with a dark edge. I’d describe it as a story about human connection, with great writing and performances. I highly recommend it.
Anonista via Apple Podcasts · Portugal · 07/03/22
I found It Makes a Sound through Nightvale years back. The first episode was very strange and rambly…but it was a perfect set up for the joy and tears that followed. It captured too well about how it is living/caring for someone with dementia, and how music brings back buried memories. I had that...Read full review »
NGarvoille via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/22/22
A truly beautiful podcast covering feelings of nostalgia, grief, and coming to terms with the things lost and the joys of finding the things you didn’t even know were there. The characters all feel like they could be your neighbors and friends. Do not sleep on this podcast!
ViennaStarx via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/13/22
I put on episode 4 on a flight today and it came back to me how well crafted the first season of this show is: Deidre is a fierce guardian of her memory as she encounters resistance flanked by an iPad-wielding kid, and before long is discussing the medium of cassette tapes along the way: looking...Read full review »

I’ve been so missing this podcast and am so dang excited for it to return!
Bublbba via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/11/22
this little podcast is packed full of heart. It's fundamentally a story about kindness, about joy, and acceptance. It's about getting by with a little help from friends and family, about music, memory, and it's told in a gentle, soulful manner that leaves you with a little more faith...Read full review »

A group of friends trying to remember the past as they make new bounds. Highly recommend

Terribly overacted. Avoid.
CTXYZ2015 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/11/22
I started listening to this on a friend’s recommendation & boy howdy is it a billion times better than I was expecting. I’ve laughed, I’ve cried - this podcast is a love letter to all the most beautiful things about music & family & community. If the state of the world is bringing you...Read full review »

I first listened to this podcast soon after it came out. I really enjoy how realistic the characters and their relationships are. The story is fun to follow and the music is great! I have Ghost Deer added to multiple playlists. I’m super excited for the upcoming season 2 and can’t wait to hear...Read full review »

One of my favorite podcasts, great story, really looking forward to the new season coming soon. Remember Wim Faros!

This adorable and odd podcast holds such a special place in my heart! The journey was not quite as I expected but I was captivated the entire time and touched by the sad but sweet (and a bit funny!) ending of season one. Themes of growth and memory and holding on to the past are handled with love...Read full review »

This podcast is well worth your time if you consider yourself a creative person, or just have been inspired to make something. It may have a bit of a slow beginning, and Deirdre as a character is definitely strange to listen to, her passion is admirable. Without spoiling anything, the twist at...Read full review »

The narrator was awful. The writing could use some drafting. At least three drafts. Legit terrible

Gave it a shot, but couldn’t get into it. It gets off to a slow start and never grabbed my attention.
Soft Whisper via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/17/20
It's only weird to be weird. I listened to several episodes until I realized it wasn’t getting better. There's no point to it, no point to the peculiarities and wanderings, just like some of their other podcasts. There's a lot of good stuff beyond horror, true crime and 90 min...Read full review »

MorriganOfTheMidwest via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/10/20
Tender story that involves two lonely kids that don't know about each other, a time capsule, characters of all ages and beautiful music. The podcast is about growing up and how adulting is something we are all trying to figure out, but in the meanwhile we'll always have an inner motor...Read full review »

I adore this show so much. When I first started listening to it my grandma had recently been diagnosed with Alzheimer’s. Music is something that helps her remember unlike anything else. It’s like magic. So this podcast definitely resonates with me on so many levels. As someone who reminisces a...Read full review »

I finished listening to this podcast a year ago and I still sometimes randomly get borderline emotional thinking about how good it is

I really, really, really wish there were more. It was just an original and unique story that I thoroughly enjoyed
GASEAHAWK via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/15/20
KEEP LISTENING If you’ve spent any time reading these reviews, you’ve probably heard this a ton, but it’s so true. The show starts out slow, but as you continue listening, it all becomes worth it. I promise. There’s a connection here between the listener and this group of people brought together...Read full review »

agent nipps via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 01/11/20
This podcast starts slow but is really worth it in the end. The last 4-5 episodes are very moving and some of the most authentic feeling I’ve felt in a while. This podcast has so much heart and I enjoyed it to the end. #rememberwimfaros
