Ive been listening podcast for a couple
years- very much enjoy! And I knocked off a star due to One episode y'all made fun of Iowa (home
state lol) and agreed that you don't have any listeners here. Well not true and you all sounded snotty and elitest. I grew a bad taste in my mouth becauae It's not cool to write off a whole state or a group of people. I enjoy comedy, but that just showed true colors. Are you as open minded as you think you are?
An amazing cast filled with personality. Rob makes it feel like you’re in a secret afterschool club about the the world’s greatest mysteries. As someone who is obsessed with these topics, the Alchemical Actors only further my enjoyment as well as my understanding. Thank you guys, wish I could’ve been an Alchemical Actor when I was in community college <3
As a former Theosophist and longtime reader of the Urantia book I enjoyed your attempt to break the book down in a short period of time. Although I did have a hard time trying to understand how someone could see the Secret Doctrine by Helena Blavatsky as more believable than the Book. All in all great job I’m trying to break down a difficult book.
I enjoy this almost daily. There is an incredible back log of offerings. You can easily find an occult subject you may be interested in and learn so much. The deep dive is done well. His voice is soothing and confident. He has a few rotating other players that do keep things fresh. So that he has someone to play off and give another take on things. So glad I found this one
I started listening because of the above topic, you guys are very funny and I'm so happy that you're still making the podcast, I'm going to listen to your entire back catalogue and tell my friends. You all have a good vibe and I appreciate the degree of voice roles you have.
