What an important and comforting podcast.

Such a great podcast; I’ve only recently started listening after seeing Alexa on Actors pro expo but I must’ve listened to half of the episodes in the last week or so! There are plenty of episodes to pick and choose from; they’re all great but I’ve particularly enjoyed the casting director guest...Read full review »

Honestly listen to this pod cast daily needs more episodes !!! And I love how real it is need more actors like this :)

This podcast feels like a breath of fresh air as it might be the only acting podcast that does NOT feature celebrities mindlessly yammering about their credits for an hour. It instead offers its listeners a glimpse into acting life for those who have not yet achieved Academy recognition. Alexa...Read full review »

It’s a joy to listen to Katie and Alexa banter about the industry. If you’re an actor, I highly recommend you spend some time in their company!

Honest, healing and what amazing chemistry! Just what I needed with a glass of wine… Thank you so much.

I’ve been an avid listener since the beginning and Alexa & Katie never fail to make me feel so much better about navigating this industry as a fellow 98 percenter! They are so insightful and empathetic whilst simultaneously causing me to snort with laughter on my daily commute.

Incredible insight into the 98% of the acting industry people don’t see. Katie and Alexa are a joy to listen to and if you are an actor you MUST listen to this podcast (and also if you’re not, because you learn super valuable things like why you should never ask an actor “have you been in...Read full review »

I’m currently working an indefinite ‘resting’ job as a delivery driver after losing acting work due to Covid. Challenging as it may be, it has left me in a position to crack through many a podcast on the road. After an inordinate amount of true crime, I recalled hearing about the 98% and decided...Read full review »

Great guests, great topics and useful tips. Love it !
CelineKars via Apple Podcasts · France · 08/12/20
I’m an actor. I can attest that the experiences they talk about on the podcast for the most part are universal experiences of actors globally. If you want an honest glimpse into the world of thespians who aren’t la creme de la creme listen to this.
ISp3nnyK3y via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 07/29/20
Really beautiful refreshing honest conversations. If you’re in the business, this is a must listen and fun! If you’re not, it’s gorgeously entertaining and insightful
stupacker via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/27/20
These two girls have kept me company 24/7 in the last weeks. I wish I was friends with them! I’ve never enjoyed a podcast so much, and the incredible thing is that I’m learning a lot about the industry - wish they explained these things in drama schools. It’s a must for all creatives, especially...Read full review »

So much of the acting industry runs on the myth of what a “successful” actor should look like. Because of that myth, I felt like I was a failure as an actor for not being on TV yet. This podcast gets into the glorious hard graft of what it actually looks like for the 98% of us who have day jobs...Read full review »

Finding this podcast through Twitter was the best thing and it came at the perfect time too. Thank you so much guys for your refreshing honesty, suddenly things feel a lot better. If you haven’t listened yet and are in the industry: YOU MUST!
Hannah-Theresa via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/10/19
This is the first actors podcast I’ve listened to that fully reflects this industry. It’s informative and entertaining which I binged within a week.
Richardsr88 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/18/19
Girls! I came across this because I was planning on creating a very very similar podcast when my flatmate told me you had already beat me to it 😂 and I cannot lie you have had me in stitches all day. Just perfection, I've been in the industry 10 years now and this is like listening to all the...Read full review »

Thank you Alexa Morden and Katie-Elin Salt. We need more people like you in the industry. The perfect tonic in this mad profession.
GWarl via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/12/19
The guest these guys get, and the conversations they have with their guests are very insightful. I’m grateful to have access to such a good resource. I want to hide this following bit a little, as I don’t want it to detract from an otherwise wonderful podcast show. The audio quality is a bit of...Read full review »
OJDevo via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/19/19
The best podcast to listen to if you’re an actor. It’s so wonderful to hear all of the stories and go “oh my god. I was there too. I’m still there! We are all in this together.” I’ve never related to anything more in my life.
JasonHardwick via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 08/13/19
Get a real insight from two amazing actors with an sublime sense of humour and incredible stories to tell. Great guests are interviewed as well. Two seasons so far I can wait for the next. They are 100% to me.
d4roca via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 07/22/19
I’ve been listening to this podcast since the very beginning and it’s such a breathe of fresh (British) air to the actor podcast world. There are so many fantastic podcasts directed at actors and acting out there, but what was lacking was a very British version of all these American, LA-centric...Read full review »

I’m graduating drama school in two months and I could not have found this podcast at a better time. Thank you so much for creating this - I’ve laughed so much and learnt so much from these episodes - not gonna lie they’re so addictive and Ive found myself binge listening to them a lot! Thank you...Read full review »

Absolutely love this podcast! Had heard the name in a few forums but always had other “more important” podcasts to catch up on. MY BAD! I’M SORRY!!! Can’t stop listening to it now. The issues are thoroughly discussed, the jokes are just right, the fact that they are “loud” only helps with...Read full review »
Tania Pais - The Acting Edit via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 03/22/19
This podcast is the only thing getting me through a period of not being able to afford living in London and having to move back to my parents'. The subjects are relevant and vital to those belonging to the 98% of actors scraping their way through life. Hard topics are paired with amusing...Read full review »

Witty, insightful and painfully honest Essential listening for anyone who had ever learnt some words and said them out loud in front of people.
Heavy-B via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/23/19
The 98% is hilarious, insightful and makes my day every time a new episode comes out. The most relatable and empowering thing I put in my ears. I’m proud to be in the 98% with you! Thanks for creating something that’s bought such joy to my commute to both muggle life and #actorslife
smarj93 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 12/27/18
A fun, often thought-provoking theatre podcast that takes a warts and all approach to the many highs and lows that come with working in the performing arts. I really enjoy listening to the glorious Alexa and Katie and recommend this show to anyone looking for a great addition to their podcast...Read full review »

Alexa & Katie offer a lively, fresh, fun angle on the life of an actor, from the perspective of most pursuing the career - the 98%.

I loved every minute of this show. I’m not an actor but I still found a lot I could relate to in Katie and Alexa’s painfully truthful depiction of the realities of #actorslife covering a great range of important topics - plus loved the jingles and out takes!
NonActor via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/28/18
So happy I found this podcast, I’m a graduating actor and this is just SO relatable and makes me feel much better about the stupid things I have already done in this industry of which I’m sure there will be plenty more.. hahaha. 🙈 Thanks gals 👯‍♀️
Amelia May L via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 11/10/18
I can not recommend this podcast enough to people. Alexa and Katie are brilliant and it is so refreshing to listen to. If you are not listening then you are missing out!

What a fantastic podcast. The hours just FLY BY when I'm listening to the two delightfully honest and witty hosts, Alexa and Katie, tell stories ranging from the morale-boosting to the nightmare-inducing, while also discussing the ups and downs of the industry. Aside from their friendship,...Read full review »

One of my favourite podcasts to listen to. I find myself nodding along to so much of what is said (probably look a right idiot when I accidentally do that whilst listening in public lol) and love the focus on a variety of topics. If you’re an actor, no matter what stage in your career, please...Read full review »

I love this podcast. Finally I’m hearing a true representation on the real life of an actor... so many important issues are brought up and the mental health and resilience episodes are amazing. Great guests and hilarious anecdotes that make you feel like you’re not alone in this ridiculous career...Read full review »

I’ve only just discovered this podcast but I’ve binged nearly ten episodes in a day and a half! Alexa and Katie are so funny and charming and no other podcast has made me want to be in the recording studio as much as the 98%! I find myself forcing my housemates to listen to snippets of episodes...Read full review »
OJGF97 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 09/05/18
Katie and Alexa vocalise the not often talked about life of most actors working (or not at the moment) in the profession. They have given levity and humour to some of the darkest corners of my personal experiences as an actor. Tuning in to an episode I feel empowered rather than drained- what...Read full review »

So I’ve decided to use this review as my platform to thank the two girls personally, in the hope that they’ll read it. Alexa and Katie, thank sweet six pound and seven ounce baby Jesus that you both decided to do this podcast. The honesty, charm and frank discussion that comes at me from your...Read full review »
Jamesbren via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 08/12/18
I listen to a lot of "real" actors podcasts, where celebrities bemoan the 3months they spent without work that one time. This podcast is the real deal. Alexa and Katie ARE the 98%, and they perfectly deliver what life is like for most actors with knowledge and charm. If you're an...Read full review »

If you’re a jobbing actor, especially one who is staring out at the vast expanse between the present moment and your last gig, this will restore your faith in your own journey and gently unwind that coiled knot of worries you’ve been carrying around in your gut.

I'm just about to graduate from Central, and you guys are helping me turn all my fear about ntering the big bad actory world into excitement.

This podcast is so brilliant. I really look forward to listening because (a) they’re both so lovely and fun and I feel like I’m hanging out with my mates and (b) they’re honest. AND it’s a podcast that speaks to the majority (98%) of actors instead of interviews with the famous ones, which are...Read full review »
Rachel Winters via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 06/01/18
I am so glad this podcast exists. I doubt I would be surviving the 98% life without these awesome, hilarious gals. Thank you for keeping me sane!
KatieKaitlin16 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/30/18
I feel as if Katie and Alexa are my spirit guides! All the things I’ve been saying for years about the industry have all been confirmed and it’s nice to feel like you’re not alone. They make ‘it’ not seem so bad and make me proud to call myself an actor.
