Quite simply one of the most beautifully crafted audio dramas available. I just finished my third listen, and I discover new layers to it every time. Through its expert sound design and Barraza’s extremely talented narration, this podcast crafts a unique tone that I’ve yet to see replicated in...Read full review »

I’m so cross Eli barraza has created this really great surreal story and then just not bothered to finish it or post any news after promising a final series. It’s like this podcast is actually really great but just can’t be bothered to finish it now

This is my favourite podcast ever. I hope it never ends

This podcast is really beautiful with its calming music and poignant story. I would go and relisten to the paper airplanes when I’m having a bad day.

What a great idea. Representation matters and is full on in this lovely and powerful story...

this podcast is just so sweet, the music is great too

Podcasts don’t get much better than this. Each episode is a vignette packing surprising emotional weight and depth. They’re stories served as shots: they hit all the harder for being short and concentrated. Eli Barraza deserves special credit as Peri. Peri is adorably awkward, relatable and...Read full review »

A delightful and gently strange adventure.

Not bad, interesting concept and decent voice acting. Unfortunately the episodes weren’t interesting enough to keep me going, but good job!

Ok so 3 small once’s so how are you making season 3? I really would love it if you make more

I went into this not knowing what to expect but I’m glad to say that I really enjoyed it and this is the kind of podcast I’d listen to over and over and over again
FridayYug via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/18/20
This show is amazing and so calming! I want more!
Batia.Bee via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/04/20
Beautifully written, and beautifully performed. The story line is sketched out with just enough detail to paint a picture and keep me asking what’s next. I usually like a longer story, but this one is satisfying in small bites. UPDATE: will there be a season three? Please don’t leave this story...Read full review »

Such a bummer. The new season was supposed to be out in Jan. &.... nothing. It would be nice to at least get some kind of update. 👎🏼
Jmt1978 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/09/20
I thought season three was supposed to be out by now 😩
courtinthesouth via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/03/20
Very simply - Excellent!!!
keefers via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/02/20
This is a lovely, complex, yet subtly told story. I was so content yet completely engaged while listening. Things got very exciting in the end and I am intrigued. I hope that the way you tell the story stays the same even if the storyline changes.
Elle.24Chl via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/18/20
I'm. So. Confused. Why is everyone saying this is beautiful? Or soothing? I tried really hard. But I'm just confused. This is just plain weird. I think this must be for a different age group maybe because I feel like I'm a smart individual ...but feeling stupid that I'm not...Read full review »

I binged the whole first season in one day, I couldn’t get enough of it!! The characters and dialogue are all so realistic and relatable and the interactions that happen between the characters are all so interesting and fun to listen to. I cannot wait to listen to the rest today, and I’m so glad...Read full review »

I was truely impressed by these series: I was shocked, scared and happy to find how every episode would end. I can’t wait for 3rd and final season in January.
ritsufushi via Apple Podcasts · Germany · 11/14/19
Honestly, I was just casually interested in this podcast for most of it. The ending of season two however, made all of the listening worth it. I am SO excited to see where this podcast will go from here; the premise is very exciting and unique, and the character growth and development is...Read full review »

Everything about this podcast is soothing, exciting, and just plain amazing.😍 The story and it’s actors are honestly top notch and if I could give on their patreon I would however until then I’ll leave this review. ❤️ Thank you guys for this podcast.

I wish i had a mom like Monica. This is a wonderful show. May you find your beloved.
Light worker 73 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/02/19
It's a mellow listen, which is odd because some pretty dramatic stuff happens. Still. Makes me mellow while also being decent storytelling.Read full review »
regan8or via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/11/19
It’s a great show not quite full fantasy but just enough of a view askew of the real world to keep you listening! Such a greatly written drama
Sidesplitting Hatchet Thrower via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/28/19
The writers of this show created very sweet and charming character. From the protagonist, to her supporters, to their... antagonist? Honestly the whole world is touching and surreal and I love it!
OPJelloQueen via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/24/19
A perfect podcast to listen to on a gentle walk! With every episode I fall deeper in love with Peri and Benny and their complicated, mysterious, ever more hopeful journey through the world.
Tiggybb via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 05/15/19
The Far Meridian starts with a formula that could be consider repetitive and stale, were it not for the fascinating and wild people Peri meets along the way. This in turn evolves into a much more complex story than just “a magic lighthouse traveling”. The music is gorgeous and effective, the...Read full review »

A great story that leaves you listening to it multiple times. The anxiety is so well portrayed. It leaves the listener rooting for the main character when they do take command. Spooky and cute and nerve wrecking.
Reggie B-Tron via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/28/19
Great characters, plot, ambiance. I am grateful for the existence of this show and all it gives to the world.
R_Borealis via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/22/19
This podcast is all of the feels in the best way. It has a poignant quality, but it is really about connection and healing. Also the characters are intersectional and portrayed with such nuance and love. Amazing production quality too. One of my favorites!
Fay Onyx via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/15/19
I appreciate this kind of podcast due to its unique approach to story development. It is incredibly imaginative and brings forth characters rich with “realness.” This is truly a one-of-a-kind story about daily encounters with different people and how rich those experiences can be.
Samaakhe via Apple Podcasts · Mexico · 03/19/19
A common issue I have audio dramas is that all the characters tend to blend together and I forget who is who. This has never happened in The Far Meridian, because they only introduce characters that are helpful to the plot or are unique and interesting.
Wockett via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/08/19
Although the main character has anxiety issues, the story is always soothing. Peri, the main character, deals with the magical reality of her home, a lighthouse, relocating every day. Great writing and performances.
The Bright Sessions via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/03/19
It's so good! I was on the edge just from reading the description and it took me a while to start it but now I'm sad it took me so long because it's so good!! I can relate to the main character so much more than I'd like to admit, and listening to her mental health struggles hits...Read full review »

this work of art is a favourite I want to listen to over and over to understand the depth within
Princess Lulinifufini via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 02/05/19
Soothing and gentle and tragic. there’s a deep melancholy to this story. Cant wait to go deeper.
Jupiter's calling via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/31/19
Idk if there’s some deeper life examining story that I’m not getting. But I don’t get it. I really like the concept of a traveling lighthouse and a girl with agoraphobia but honestly she doesn’t really seem that way sometimes. She’s all I’m scared of talking to people and then a couple episodes...Read full review »

The characters and story are so amazing. Take a listen!
Charlieturnblad via Apple Podcasts · Denmark · 01/18/19
I’ve cried and laughed my way through this podcast - the emotions are so honest and characters get very vulnerable. It’s just wonderful. I’m SO looking forward to where this is going!
Dfhjgssgh via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 12/26/18
Really, really love it. One of the most calming and relatable podcasts I've ever listened to. Puts my anxiety at ease. Fascinating ideas are discussed. All around amazing. Fantastic storytelling!Read full review »

I first heard a podcast discussed on NPR, and I was instantly hooked. It’s a soothing Sound of what the ideal journal entry would be, or a letter to a long lost friend or family member. It reaches the heart!

Such lovely characters, each unique with their own soul and story. Strongly reminiscent of the Little Prince, with a pure main character meeting new people and hearing the fables of their lives. Matched with beautiful soundscapes, it has quickly become one of my favorite podcasts.
