Podchaser57 years agoKira Apple- Charming and Sweet Fantasy
This adorable show takes the drudgery of post-grad life and makes it charming and fantastic - literally so, with fairies and magic. Great voice acting and a really fun premise - wish the episodes were twice as long! :)
Apple Podcasts5Kira42United States7 years ago - Charming and Lovely
This show is like the high fantasy equivalent of Being Human, though it also really reminds me of the Carmilla web series. Maddy does an amazing job with the performances, and the sound design is great. Strongly recommend listening while having tea and cake!
Apple Podcasts5GejWattsUnited Kingdom7 years ago Firstly, if I'm getting the credits right, Maddy Searle plays two characters in this and I think she does a great job making them sound distinct. So kudos for that. The problem is that unless this show is supposed to be about an abusive friendship/mentorship, one of the characters is way off. I am confused as to why Sylda feels any obligation or interest to help Squirm, who has offered her nothing and just berates and demeans her.
