  • Just listen to it already

    This show is genuinely one of my favourite pieces of media and has some of the best character writing and tropes subversions I’ve seen.

    As someone who doesn’t normally get emotional over media, I can say I have cried more times listening to midst and unend than I have at funerals.

    This show has genuinely carried me through so much in life. And it’s one of the rare cases where the spin-offs and sequels hit just as hard.

  • INSANELY GOOD

    Unique, hilarious , excellent storytelling and world building, I am helplessly addicted! Never heard a narration style such as this and I cannot get enough. Cheeky sci fi Wild West with some of my favorite characters written for podcast, highly recommend!!

  • The level of toxicity Moc Weepe and Imelda have in this podcast is genuinely so moving that I'm literally in tears 😭 😭 😭 . I'm on my second run through of the podcast and I dunno how to describe this in words but this podcast is literally fueling back my spark for art and storytelling. The characters are so moving, the world building is incredible.. Most definitely my fictional podcast of the year ♥️♥️♥️

  • Swallowed by a Black Hole

    Went from being my favorite pod to… meh. Season 3 has been a rough listen. It feels like the characters have run their course and it may be time for a fresh start. The Midst universe seems like it’s been swallowed by a black hole, so hopefully it comes back as something new and refreshing. Definitely feels like we’ve “jumped the shark” at this point.

  • Unend S2E3 locked?

    Love the show and all that y’all do. Didn’t know how best to reach you. Unend S2E3 seems locked behind a pay wall on Apple? Episodes 4 & 5 are out but not 3.
