When you reach the end and get amazed and sad at the same time you know it’s a goood podcast. Many times Kalila left me thinking, she’s got some deep insights in there. It entertained me. Thank you very much!

I love this podcast so much. The story, music, effects, and acting are soooo good! Even though it’s a fiction podcast, it’s chock full for helpful information and encouragement for self exploration and self improvement. I can’t wait to listen to it from the beginning again!

I’m loving this podcast! I wish I had known about this a long time ago. I’ve just found it and I can’t stop listening. I started season one last night and I’m halfway through it already.

Just reached the end of this story, I have loved every minute of it. Highly recommend

Fun concept and great use of a community of characters. A couple of the key voices of different characters are too similar to tell apart much of the time, both the natural voices of the actors and the way the voices are processed. There’s a certain artificial cadence to lots of the speech from...Read full review »

LOVE this podcast! So beautifully written and addresses real issues, real heart break, and real healing. The subtle world building straddles the line of reality and fantasy. I can’t stop binge listening!

Amazing! I’m so glad I found this podcast!

I was really intrigued by the concept of a modern magic story! But some bits have increasingly made me bristle. The last straw was the spotlight episode for some ‘elemental psychology’ nut that has zero psychology training or credentialing. Unfortunately unsubscribing.

genuinely one of my favorite podcasts and opened me up to new perspectives on my journey of self awareness and healing :’)
Alex Rebaldo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/21/21
I’m not an action person, but after a few episodes I just couldn’t engage. It’s a 1st person narrative and I just couldn’t engage with the narrator. Maybe it’s better after a whole bunch of episodes, but life is too short to spend that much time with it.

Kalila Stormfire is een geweldig personage, ze had mij vanaf de eerste aflevering direct geboeid! De rest van de cast die erbij komt spelen zo geweldig samen en je krijgt een mooie graduele opbouw van d wereld waarin Kalila leeft, haar voorgeschiedines - en haar huidige problemen. IK kijk heel...Read full review »

This series has elevated and informed my personal practice as a witch immeasurably. It’s effective in telling relatable stories, with a fantasy world woven through that is very well thought out. A welcome alternative to what I’ve seen in mainstream media, that includes greater diversity of gender...Read full review »

It’s hard to describe magic with words. Oh, Lisette Alvarez can do it, as you’ll know if you listen to this show, but I’m not sure I can & that’s what this show actually is: magic. Yes, it’s about magic too but not entirely, no, it’s so much more. All I can say is this show is a landmark...Read full review »

I can't stop listening. The only thing i don't like about the show is HAVING TO WAIT FOR NEW EPISODES. Omg i love this podcast. Characters are endearing. Narrative style works perfectly. Keep it up Lisette! I just might send you some money...if i can figure out how to do that.Read full review »

I love how magic is weaved into normal life. There is just something about this podcast that has me super hooked. It’s light and fun. I just love it.
Jeppy-cole via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/19/19
Wow!
Mpharkins via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/04/19
I am IN LOVE with this audio drama. I sympathize with Kalila and I like to hear the different problems that people would potentially go to a witch for in this world. Witches are normal here and it's fantastic. It's totally #queer and I am living for it. As someone who identifies as...Read full review »

This is a great little podcast amoungst all the noise. Good production values. Great story line and worth the time.
Twit_Twhoo via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 10/03/19
Such a perfect podcast to listen to to get in the mood for fall! As witchy and entertaining as it is, it’s a delight to hear how it’s grown and transitioned to more voice actors and such. A clear labor of love, this is a wonderful listen for anyone with an affinity for witchy, warm and magical...Read full review »
MaxStrong512 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/10/19
a fun and interesting show with cool worldbuilding!! the way each episode deals with the intertwining of supernatural and the underlying emotional problems is real good.
kit sherman via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/02/19
I thought it was going to be a simple story - but like all the best podcasts, Kalila had me fooled! The depth of the worldbuilding is, pun intended, spellbinding, and I love it! The show is well written, well acted, and well produced - everything just feels natural!
Queen Nerd Jess via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/27/19
Really enjoying the podcast, it’s very unique, which is hard to come by. Stories are fun and exciting. Totally recommend! If I may make one suggestion though to the creator, assuming she’ll ever read these....{SPOILER ALERT}...the coughing every time you switch between personalities made total...Read full review »

This show is such a breath of fresh air. Really well written and acted, an immersive fascinating world, compelling relationships. I love that we get to see the raw bits of Kalila and her struggles as well as the triumphs. So good!
Tritogeneae via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/23/19
Everything about this show is so good. World-building that makes what’s invisible in our realm, visible in theirs. Incredible characters that ACTUALLY represent the people I love— people of color, immigrants, mixed-race people, queer and non-binary people. A diverse pantheon of witchcraft, not...Read full review »

this podcast is full of heart and positivity and has elements of great storytelling. the reason i don’t give it five stars is that listening to this character have nervous breakdowns across multiple episodes is just taxing to listen to. especially when binge-listening. that, coupled with audio...Read full review »

Rarely do I come across an audio drama that is as thoroughly my jam as Kalila Stormfire. If you love lowkey yet poignant stories, endearing witches or little magic shops you wish you could actually visit you’ll love this
slauthor via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/04/19
A great worldbuilding and an ever greater character. I strive for compassionate characters and Kalila sure delivers. Also, it's great the uniqueness in which each client is presented in a context that shows there is so much more than white-rich-cis-and-straightRead full review »

Kalila Stormfire is a pitch-perfect mix of magic, emotional truth and societal commentary. The range and diversity of characters is also brilliant.
Moksa95 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/22/19
This starts off as a light listen with an interesting concept as the titular witch starts her new business, and evolves into a compelling & intriguing story. The diverse LGBTQ+ cast & characters, the delicacy with which the show handles such complex & traumatic issues and the hints...Read full review »

Very funny and serious at the same time - how do the good ones always manage to do that?
BelovedF00l via Apple Podcasts · Sweden · 04/19/19
I am a huge Dresden fan, and while the compairson here is not the best this show really managed to give me that vibe. I love how it starts off so simple but blossoms into a very well thought out story. So excited I found this show.
Rukland via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/06/19
I found out about this podcast when it was crossed promoted with Far Meridian and Janus Descending for the Once Upon a Podcast show. Very sad I can’t make the live show! It has been excellent and engaging, diverse and inclusive. Representation matters, and this podcast hits the nail on the head....Read full review »

Kalila wormed her way into my heart so, so quickly. Within a couple of episodes this jumped straight to the top of my favourites list. Thoughtful, interesting, engaging - this podcast is an absolute gem.
Dfhjgssgh via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/26/18
I just accidentally encountered this and am so glad I did. The storyline, pacing, timbre of the voices is just right. I think this is one I'll devour pretty quickly and be left eagerly waiting more.Read full review »

I am in absolute awe of how much time and passion and dedication has been put into this show. Lisette Alvarez must be a witch of the highest order with how spellbinding her tales is. Just. Gods, this show is incredible. It is beautiful. It is wholesome. It is heart wrenching. It is truly beyond...Read full review »

In a world where magic is everywhere, anything could happen! I cant wait to find out who what she ends up doing next!

Fantastic!
Anikah via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/08/18
It’s not often that I find a show that I think will sit in the same place in my heart as Welcome to Night Vale, or King Falls Am, or the Bright Sessions. Kalila Stormfire, appropriately enough, just stole my heart away. I’ve fallen head over heels with this show: with its creativity, and its...Read full review »

Through the case files of a young witch, we are shown a truly, scientific and holistic approach to solving the traumas of everyday life. This show also beautifully builds a world outward, creating a specifically designed world around this witch who has been cast out by her coven and is,...Read full review »

Complete suspension of disbelief. What else is there to say? The weaving of drama, fantasy, and mundane is spectacular. By the end of episode 1 you will be asking yourself if this really is fiction. I for one, hope not.
Matt pypie via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/24/18
I fell in love with this show right from the get-go. Each episode has such wonderful depth and earnestness that is only added to by the magical elements included. I am always eagerly awaiting new episodes and am never disappointed by Lisette's storytelling abilities.Read full review »

Kalila Stormfire is amazing. It reminds me of everything I love about being pagan. I support Lisette and this show on Patreon and after you listen to this, you'll know why! It's incredible. <3 Great work!~ :DRead full review »
RedBlaqueGolden via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/31/18
A beautiful and original new audio drama. Kalila is a fun, intelligent character, her clients are quirky (and in very good hands) and the story is steeped in a mystery I just can’t wait to unravel!
inkphemeral via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/23/18
A fun and heartfelt show in which the diverse and detailed world and its characters handle very real and relatable issues. With a combination of episodic magical challenges and long-running mysteries and conflicts, it promises a very entertaining run!
Bumble C via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/23/18
Three episodes in and Kalila has already displayed a range of themes and tones. Episode 3 in particular was beautifully done. Lisette is an engaging, personable voice actor, the characters and situations are grounded and the magick clearly comes from a place of authenticity.
BlanketBand via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/22/18
A modern fantasy story centered on a delightful protagonist whose earnest personality carries the show. Wonderful music, high production quality, and a detailed world all combine into a wonderful audio drama! Episode 3 got me especially :)
