“I can’t tell you how impressed I am by this show. The acting, the sound design, but most of all the world. It is so expertly crafted. Each episode is its only thing, but together they form this mosaic of gorgeous sci-fi lore. It’s a treat!”

“This is one of the most thought provoking, entertaining, and poignant podcasts I have ever had the pleasure of listening to. Story telling at its absolute finest. The writing is off the charts in excellence. The acting, producing, and sound design is top quality. This is one of those podcasts...”Read full review »

“How this series is not more popular, I’ll never know. I’ve been searching for a podcast in this format that would keep me engaged. With audiobooks and most podcasts, if I’m listening while I work, I’ll find that 30 minutes have passed and I have no idea what happened because it just wasn’t...”Read full review »

“This show used to be incredible to the point where I would experience intense emotion listening to each story. But lately, my god. It feels like a SJW sermon each time they drop a new part. Yes, the Program is social commentary. I get that. But lately it feels the producers aren’t even trying to...”Read full review »

“5-stars ++
Entertaining, thought provoking, well produced tales of society, technology, and futurism through a lens reminiscent of Jean Baudrillard.
The future is refreshing, inspired, while being timely. It provides a narrative of social possibilities that are sorely missed in modern...”Read full review »

“The concept of money laid out in the show has wormed its way deep into my brain. The NIMBY episode just pops up multiple times a week. The whole show is clever, insightful and just a bit spooky sometimes, I love it”

“Probably the most eye-opening and entertaining audio series out there. Educational, funny, scary, touching, it's all there. If you want to take part in a thought experiment about AI, capitalism, our society and being human in general, give it a listen. Can recommend it 100%.”Read full review »

“Truly one of the best audio-dramas I’ve ever heard. Wise, philosophical, witty, and covering a wide array of genres this piece of speculative fiction gives us a good look at where we’re going but a clear and concise lesson on how we can change that.
So glad I gave this one a listen. The Program...”Read full review »

However, it seems the creators/writers have run out of ideas and have abandoned...”Read full review »

“This show was incredible at the very start, now it is a bunch of jumbled up woke crap. Non-linear is fine if done right, but story lines are not explained well and the world/lore building is lazy or non existent. Don’t waste your time.”

“This would only be self fulfilling if idiots were the majority. Fortunately that is not true. This is as pure fiction as you can get. Propaganda-ish and it’s amazing how people will dream of this. Well written but seems to be done to encourage people to think this is what lies ahead. Falls flat.”
