  • Awesome Podcast!

    This is such a great podcast for fans of James S.A. Corey and fans of sci-fi in general. Their deep dives and analysis are great. So is the fact that they are just nerds like the rest of us about this, and it really comes through. After listening to every episode, this has become my comfort podcast I keep coming back to and relistening when I need to relax, either from work or for example, as an anxious flyer, when I was on a plane last week.

  • Great

    I really like this podcast. It provoked some ideas about TMOG that I hadn’t considered on my first read. It’s insightful and fun - and now I’m realising I’m going to have to reread all the expanse too.

  • Best Podcast on James SA Corey Content

    There’s a few podcasts that have obliquely tried to tackle James SA Corey stuff - none have done it well (except for Ty and That Guy I suppose - but you can’t really call it a fancast when one of the authors is behind the mic) except for MERCY OF PODS, good energy, everything you could want and you WILL learn more about the captives war whether you want to or not!
