    I wrote a review before this, just finished mag 18 (HOLY MOLY) and the podcast is absolutely terrific. Everything is beginning to connect and from what limited knowledge I have of the entities (i think that’s what they’re called) I can tell which things are the flesh, the web, etc. Amazing

  • Best Podcast I’ve Listened to in a While

    As the title says, I listen to a lot of podcasts for work and this one kept me on the edge of my seat for a while, especially after season 1. Great fiction, funny and sincere writers/performers, wish they’d keep making it!
