Sean Abraham PrestonThis psychedelic mystery thrill-ride is an Alice in Wonderland glimpse into the darkness of pop culture and the unholy beings who inhabit it.

- Interesting, worth a listen
If you find you might benefit from a bit of a departure from your scientific rationalist reality tunnel, this maybe a nice vehicle for some such respite.
Ambitious material, sometimes intriguing and occasionally disjointed, adequately woven into an unusual narrative peppered with some compelling concepts...wrapping up this set of obliquely-related yarns would be an impressive task. Time will tell just how.
A cult, fictional depictions of real celebrities, magick, murder...

United States5 years ago - A bingeable supernatural beast of a podcast
I grinned all the way through the first two episodes because they were sooo unexpected and fun. There’s NOTHING ELSE LIKE THIS! We’ve got mystery, intrigue, celebrities, cults, 90's nostalgia, unearthly stuff…and the story is still unfolding. This slightly alternate world is strangely comforting right now. It’s an adventurous escape with a host who is totally relatable. Not sure exactly where we’re going, but that's the greatness of the show! I'm loving the twists and turns of this wild, m... more
Apple Podcasts5ElizacrossingtheiceUnited States6 years ago - Goes Nowhere
An aimless, wandering, uninspired, rambling camp fire story of an attempt at scifi. Drifts all too easily toward gratuitous violence and sex, never for good reason. It has only a few (they're painfully long) scenes that don't really unfold so much as kind of... spill out, obviously with little thought involved.
Apple Podcasts2hcvjyfhjgdcgfhkhdajUnited States6 years ago - Sexy Pychedelic Cyberpunk Cult Goodness
Really awesome listen. Such a unique piece of audio fiction. I’m always looking for new trippy cult stuff and this happens to be the first audiodrama that has even mentioned technospiritualism. It’s just awesome, give it a listen.
Apple Podcasts5BdaddyPaddyUnited States6 years ago - Gripping
This has quickly become one of my favorite narrative podcasts. Highly imaginative with a gripping storyline. Have to find out what happens next!
Apple Podcasts5Shmulik ZevUnited States6 years ago - I must be the only one
I hated this. The characters are repulsive, one-dimensional tropes. Nobody seems to have any explanation for what they do. “I don’t know why I took it/walked over there/stood on my head” type of lazy writing. I wouldn’t be surprised if the other reviews are all friends of the creator. Give this one a pass.
Apple Podcasts1MaggieMimsyUnited States6 years ago - Crazy story!
My favorite time to listen to story style podcasts like this is on long road trips so I queued this one up and it was fantastic, gripping and made for a wild ride!

This has a little bit of everything! I’m not sure where it’s going to take us, but I’m along for the ride!

Instantly hooked on this podcast. The set up is super eerie and interesting. The guests are really engaging and I'm very curious to see where this story goes.

Canada6 years ago - A Friend with Vast Potential
An unassembled puzzle.
Pieces that are provocative, familiar, highly imaginative, bizarre, and even off-putting.
This pod knows where it’s going, but you don’t. If that scares you, then well you might not want to listen.
But you should.
Apple Podcasts5@NikolozTskitis1United States6 years ago - Love it!
Didn’t know what to expect going into it but I was immediately drawn in and anxious for more!
Apple Podcasts5Lylar958United States6 years ago - Entertaining
Listening to the recent episode was an eye-opener. The sound quality, the effects made me feel apart of the expereince. The storytelling involving Marilyn Manson and the cult got me like (O.O). Keeping an eye on the upcoming episodes for sure!!!
Apple Podcasts5Six Frames-JacobUnited States6 years ago - I NEED more!
