Utterly Depressingly
I love audio dramas. This, however, really let me down. It’s just one depressing episode after another—suicide, depression, self harm, addiction, metaphors for substance abuse, racial injustice, murder, forced abortion, familial anguish, pet death, broken hearts, broken government, broken spirits. I gave it two stars because the production quality and voice acting is good, but the plot is terrible and highly reliant on cheap emotional trauma to keep it afloat. Also, there are wayyy too many ads in it for the pace the story moves. The placement of the ads is also super choppy and poorly integrated. (They tried to do in-world, lore-friendly ads incorporated into a radio show. It didn’t work very well.)

I was happy to hear some familiar voices....but the story is a little average.
