“I was so excited about season 1&2. Looooved it. The editing was just exquisite, the pieces poignant and meaningful. I really enjoyed the mix between old and new texts and interviews, I cherished the peak into the archives, the worlds conjured through meaningful but unobtrusive soundscapes....”Read full review »

“I love this podcast! Love, love, love it. Music, acting, writing - it’s a triple threat. You can even dance to it. Feel like it elevates my mind and alleviates cultural deprivation every time I listen.”

“Beautiful sound stories selections. Diverse unexpected. The very best of the East Coast literary scene through the years sprinkled throughout with European flair. Most akin to a beautifully produced BBC podcast. A must hear even on repeat for the over educated and under paid aesthetes of this world.”

“... From the first episode of season 1 this podcast completely captured me, the blending of fiction, poetry, writers’ interviews, and the occasional essay, mixed with some of the best sound design and music of any podcast makes every episode a special treat. I’ve listened to many of them more...”Read full review »

“....and sexual assault as a garnish. Really confused how Ep. 16, which was basically a cheesy rap video in written form, made the editorial cut. Why is misogyny and sexual assault ok if it comes from a black man? Is this what we are to expect the rest of the season? If so, I’ll unsubscribe now.”

“Very glad season 2 of this podcast is on its way. Season 1 started a little weak. If you start with episode 1, you’ll be disappointed. Start with S1 episode 12 and work back. No story arch, so nothing lost by working back in this way.
I can’t remember exactly when but at some point this podcast...”Read full review »
