Worth it
Reviews can mean little as we, you and I, are strangers, but if you can take a stranger’s word for it, I promise everything I will type will be in utter honesty. I first heard about the podcast on critical role I merely shrugged it off as it didn’t sound like it would be my cup of tea, I listen to most CR episodes as a podcast regardless but for some reason I just wasn’t sold that Midst would be entertaining for me. The entirety of their first season had come out and I still hadn’t even given it a chance. When the time finally came and I popped the first episode on… I couldn’t stop. I have truly never experienced anything like this but in the best way possible. The story felt scattered at first but I think i was just trying to find my own footing in this new world cuz they do an EXCELLENT job of immersing you in immediately!! everything clicks together so beautifully my jaw was kept consistently on the floor. When I listened to their roundtable i was only MORE amazed to find out it’s not even scripted?? I have the utmost respect for the work everyone puts into this show and I am in constant awe when I press play. From the sounds, the word play, their own voices, the smallest of details all add to a beautiful beautiful experience I cannot stop yapping to my friends about. My words will not do my feelings justice. This has made me laugh, sniffle, and sit panicked at the edge of my seat, hanging off the words they say. This and more is exactly why I am typing this all out to you, dear stranger, for this was an experience I want many others to have a crack at. That is, if you take my word for it :)

This is varsity-level storytelling, folks. Not your standard-issue actual play podcast. It’s fast, smart, funny, and the rotating perspectives can be tough if you’re used to something a little more staid. That said, it is outstanding and pays off brilliantly if you’re willing to stretch yourself...Read full review »

I enjoyed the collaborative narrative storytelling, like a hybrid of an audiobook and a live performance. The narrators are excellent voice actors, the writing is vivid and descriptive. The world building is also mysterious and fascinating. Looking forward to more of this!
