“I recently blew through all four seasons of Outlander for the first time, and now that I’ve picked up the first book, I was on the hunt for a podcast to read along with. This one was recommended to me and so far I’ve listened through chapter 7 of the read along. I have to say, I’m not super into it so far. The actual reread part of each episode feels super quick compared to the rest. For instance, in the most recent episode I listened to, over 20 minutes were spent on a *very* detailed recount of the hosts’ reactions to seeing the first picture of Jamie released by STARZ, and then maybe 10-15 minutes were spent on the chapter. I also don’t get the impression that they are doing a lot of preparation before recording; for someone who is reading this book for the first time, I’ve picked up on several incorrect statements in every episode so far. If you’re going to call yourselves THE OUTLANDER PODCAST, it’s probably worth jotting down some notes on each chapter rather than trying to go off memory alone.
I plan to keep listening for a bit longer in the hopes that they improve over time, but based on other reviews, I’m not sure if that ever happens.”
