I watched Silo twice before ever seeking out a podcast and am so delighted I’m listening to this podcast. I tried another one that didn’t even notice the screen glitch during the power outage (boooo) and switched over to this one. I love how one host knows the book and the other is just...Read full review »

Elysia and Luke are funny, thoughtful, insightful, and thorough in their coverage of Silo. I am excited for their coverage of Dune as well. If you’re looking for a silo podcast, look no further. These guys are the best

I wish I had been listening to the while I was watching the series because I love the real-time reactions to each episode. As someone who has read (and LOVES) the books they do a great job of not giving anything away and discovering the phenomenal job that has been done of adapting it for screen....Read full review »

Great pod. Deep dives into each episode & provides useful info from the books for non-readers.

Elysia's voice is so lovely to listen to. The analysis and dialogue between Elysia and Luke create a great podcast. The balance between show and book without spoilers is a difficult thing to do well and they achieve this. Keep up the great work!Read full review »

Just started watching Silo and now listening to this podcast after each episode. I really like both the people in the podcast. They have different discussion styles and different experiences with the story (one read the books, one did not). I like getting the little snippets from the books...Read full review »

There is a recap but also a discussion about each major beat. It’s fun as a book reader to hear Luke’s theories and hear a little tinge of amusement in Elysia’s voice listening to him, (although there were parts of the show that we really were just as blind as non book readers). They have a...Read full review »

Very informative podcast; the hosts are great.

Excellent for book fans and the TV show, in-depth. Inspired me to read the original trilogy. Good stuff!

Great show great pod.

I love this podcast! Not only are both hosts engaging and knowledgeable, but Elysia is a delight. I intentionally look for femme perspectives in podcasts, and it can be rare in podcasts about shows I love. I started out only a show watcher, but read Wool during the season, and having the...Read full review »

I really want to like this more but they need to release episodes within a day or two of the show airing.

I love this show. Elysia and Luke do an outstanding job dissecting each episode of Silo from the perspective of a book reader (with no spoilers) and someone coming to the series with fresh eyes, respectively. They both bring interesting insights and opinions about the show with an easy...Read full review »

Excellent podcast and really informative. Love the dynamic between Elysia and Luke. Keep up the great work team, look forward to season 2.

Excellent podcast. Great production. By far the best on Silo TV show that I’ve found. Love the hosts and their discussions. Look forward to it each week.

I listened to a couple Silo recap podcasts before determining this was my favorite. The the host manages the discussion really well and James Corden brings his shrewd humor to each show as the non-book reader. My only quibble is that they took a really long time to release the episode 8 recap, so...Read full review »

I like this podcast but it gets released on Apple Podcasts over a week after the previous episode airs! It’s so frustrating for it to be so far behind the actual latest episode. Not worth waiting for.

As a book reader, I was eager for the new AppleTV series. As someone who enjoys thinking more than absolutely necessary about my latest favorite show, I looked immediately for a podcast dedicated to the Hugh Howie inspired program. I tried a couple others before Elysia and Luke and the...Read full review »

By far the best podcast for Silo TV watchers as well as book readers. They make sure they toe the line of revealing information while giving in depth comparisons. Absolutely love to listen.

I can't contain my excitement about "Silo Breakdown"! This podcast has become my absolute favorite. Elysia and Luke are an incredible hosting duo who delve into Silo with passion and expertise. As a book lover, Elysia's insights into the differences between the books and the show...Read full review »

She spoiled one of the big season long plot points in the first podcast. It is unique that she reads passages from the books. But I will only listen to this podcast after the series finale. I am a bit disappointed that this tv show will be less for me. I was getting into it. Well I am very...Read full review »

I’ve listened to several Silo podcasts and this is the only one where at least one person has read the book. Why is this important? To understand the differences between the original story and the TV show. I read the trilogy several years ago and love to be reminded about the great story-telling...Read full review »

I came across one of the co-hosts Elysia on The Lorehounds series of podcasts and she is an engaging presenter. This pod is ideal for those of us who are new to the world of The Silo. Along with her co-host Luke, Elysia dives deep into each episode of the Apple TV series Silo with looks at plot,...Read full review »

Long time book fan - loving the show so far but too impatient for weekly episodes. Listening to these two discussing the episodes in depth is keeping me going between episodes!
trianglewalks91 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/22/23
Best podcast for Silo, brings in bits from books without spoiling it. Well versed in speculative lit. & tv/film. They bring greater depth to show.
SugarK via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/18/23
I really like the premise of the show - one presenter knows the book, one is fresh to it (like I am). And your insights and points of view are good. But for the love of god, get some decent microphones. It so heavily compressed it gives me a headache.
Mattski2000 via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 05/15/23
I’ve listened to a couple of other Silo podcasts but this one stands out as the best by far - so I’m sticking with it! No need for me to go anywhere else. Concept: Having a fan of the book/author, watching alongside someone who hasn’t read the book and knows nothing about the Apple+ TV show, is...Read full review »

This podcast is a great companion piece for the show.

Elysia and Luke are thoughtful in their analysis, thorough in their recap, and entertaining in their banter. If you want guides to this sci-fi mystery, they’re here!
