As a member of the IG family I love having something to listen to as I go about my day and the lines of thought you explore are intriguing and spur my own.
Keep up the great work and I can’t wait to see how the story unfolds in Onyx Storm!
Apple Podcasts5PhlirtUnited States2 years ago - Worthwhile listen!
I love Karly on Instagram and was so excited to hear her podcast. Her theories are always well thought out and explained and of course the podcast does the same. I e listened to every empyrean podcast I can find and somehow Karly still comes up with new theories I haven’t heard yet or explain things in new ways. I highly recommend!!!!
