“Ostium has an interesting premise, and feels a bit like a time travel video / role playing game. The acting isn’t always strong, but the script is charming and the sound design is solid. Mysteries abound, but this doesn’t feel like some other podcasts or tv shows, where the mysteries are just...”Read full review »
