I’m a big fan of the bugle family of shows and Alice’s additions to it never cease to make my love for it grow. This show in particular is a great window into new media and content I was previously unfamiliar with!
Alice and her cohosts are delightful and I enjoy the different segments. The mines of urrr really resonates, consumed a lot of tropey fiction over the years and some hasn’t aged well.
I’ve just discovered this having come across Alice on the bugle. Thought she was very smart and funny on that so decided to give Realms ago and I absolutely love it.
If like me you listen to other SF pods such as Starship Sofa - go for this one too. She’s always funny as are the guest hosts. I’m not totally immersed in the world of Science Fiction but that’s irrelevant as there is always something in every episode that I do know and lots of suggestions to expand my enjoyment more through into ot... more
I've followed (and loved) Alice's comedy and satirical podcasts before but this is something different. For a fan of Sci-fi and Fantasy you'll find this enlightening, educational and funny. Alice has such a vast knowledge of all the different genres and, as usual, a good selection of guests. Highly recommend.
One of the funniest writers and comedians talking about my favourite book genres? Yes please !
