  • I respect the talent and some fun writing. This AD really understands that writing is key. However, it's not for me. I'm simply tired of these ADs that need to be a cozy safe space that's all about quirky character interactions instead of a gripping story that has actually some emotional impact. The disappeared host is a good setup, but there's nothing that gripped me to keep going.

  • It was an absolute delight being able to listen to this show in its entirety this year. The story as a whole is such a rollercoaster, with heartbreak and shocking twists along the way, but it could not have ended more perfectly and it’s always so wonderful to hear creators expanding the horizons of their work as time goes on! Even as someone who knowns very little about the spiritual practices in the show such as tarot, it was so thematically tight that it was very easy to learn as I listened!

    Smoked and listened to ep 1.5 - Long Time, No See. Literally, laughed out loud the whole time…hilarious & heartfelt. The entire scene where the voicemails are being played is gold. This is really great writing. Thanks for making this ✌🏼

  • Podcast so good I've listened to the rest of their work. Recommend for spooky vibes in a fun way as it gets more and more serious (in a good way).

    Fun and spooky queer-inclusive podcast. It takes a little while to get going in terms of plot, but once it starts pulling and weaving its threads it's a cool mystery. The MC Sam can a little frustrating in his inability to piece the clues of the story together but is kind and loveable, which keeps me going. Lovely, cozy mystery for supernatural and fantasy fans.

  • What's particularly fun about this long-story-arc fiction podcast is that the twenty-something protagonist is living in a thoroughly spooky situation, and he has such a "pollyanna" personality that he doesn't notice half of it, and none of it bothers him. 😁

  • Deeply unique in both premise and character design, SBR keeps you tuning in desperate to learn how the pieces all fit together. Major manages to examine some deep existential questions through the lens of a boy taking over his mother's radio station only to discover that there was *way* more going on behind the mic than he could have ever imagined.

    Gently spooky, a tiny bit romantic, occult flavored, and most of all- a journey you've definitely never been on before.

  • A Spectacularly Spooky Time!

    Having just finished season 1, I cannot overstate my love for this show. It’s a well balanced mix of wholesome attempts at spooky radio from a ray of sunshine of a narrator and explorations of heavier, complex themes. The buildup to the overarching plot is very well done and intriguing- I love the place season 1 left off, and I’m incredibly excited to see where we go from here. Sam is a delight to listen to, and I love the other characters we’ve been introduced to so far (Rhytidia my beloved). T... more

  • Absolutely charming! I'm now very attached to the main cast of characters, and the overall tone of the show is (pardon the pun) bewitching! Plus gorgeous music that loops in my head constantly when I'm not listening!
