- One of my FAVORITE pods!
THIS is best fiction pod! Great variety, fabulous writing, and perfect actors. So thankful I found this because I’m totally hooked. Started from the first episode in 2012 and currently in 2018. Love love love! Provocative and thoughtful - just what I need as a daily binge.
