“I stuck with it because I wanted to see how the story evolved. It was an ok story but the actors are the worst part of this whole podcast. You can tell they’re reading and they don’t act out their lines at all, it’s just flat reading. It almost sounds like they’re working out the script at a...”Read full review »

“It peaked my curiosity, and quickly become addicted. I really enjoy the characters. I understand that there’s this arc going on, which is fine but the episodic nature of it is great.”

“This has some quirks or weaknesses as other reviewers have noted I will admit to agreeing with some of them. I pushed through them as the overall story was entertaining enough. Here is why the 3-star review, I get it 2020 sucked but to abandon a story/podcast with no explanation or update is is...”Read full review »

“Started well but the second series was a let- down for me. Why on Earth did they decide to opt for comedy ?”

“Seems pretty cool so far (9 episodes in)
I enjoy the mystery and the occasional horror sequences. The mixed in satirical parts are a bit groaning and out of place though. I hope it stays dark going forward!”

“Season 1- good, basically the x-files
Season 2- awesome, Amos is super cute and getting in to the details of how a zoo for the paranormal runs and acquires specimens really builds the world
Season 3- the aquarium? But also some kind of confrontation with the less... ethical aspects of their work...”Read full review »

“What is up with the annoying background noises? Are they supposed to be spooky? Add mystery and anxiety to a dull narration? Well they don’t, I thought my brain was gonna explode in episode 2 when the dull humming in the background started.”

“I am on episode 4 so far it is a lot of old case files. No real encounters. This could be so much better. Shorten the back stories and allow the FBI investor to do an actual investigation. If I wanted a podcast with random scary stories. There are a lot of podcasts that do that. I am going to...”Read full review »

“To everyone calling the narration “emotionless” “awful” or “deadpan”: the narrator is playing an FBI AGENT. Emotionless is LITERALLY the whole point. The stories are very interesting, and I’m excited for more”

“...with the patience to stick with it. Episode titled “Perimeter” was one of the scariest things I’ve heard so far this year. The episodes about the giant weird tree-thing in the road was good too, as was the one with the kids visiting the Zoo.
Mothman episode was lame, but by the time you reach...”Read full review »

“The writing isn’t bad and the story is engaging enough. The attempts at humour fall flat and the delivery sounds like high school drama students reading a script. Still listening so I guess not having given up means the positive outweighs the negative on this one for me at least. Worth a listen.”

“The story was good for the first few episodes..then it just got goofy.
Then like the narrators acting it went bad very fast.
Singing as the Siren..painful to listen to,it was very bad.
Then the PC rhetoric which was ridiculous.
Funny thing is the narrator doesn't want to hurt anyone's...”Read full review »

“Zoo is a fantastic podcast for fans of Stranger things, X files, or welcome to Night vale. A wonderful synthy soundtrack adds to every story read by Mckayla Protagonist, and the writing is tight but with enough detail to be a joy to listen to. I love it! Thanks Zoo Team!”
