just the worst!
I loved both stories, one having more of a thriller vibe and some concepts similar to 2013' HER. The voice work was great and the round table summing up LifeAfter was good, I normally lose interest mid way through that type of content. This one had me hooked from start to finish. Now to start the hunt for more audio dramas this well produced 😪. Real talk this stuff is better than most audiobooks I use on a sleep timer to fall asleep at night and I have a $14 month subscription for those.
its been toooo long since i heard a good podcast tooo long
Life After was beautiful. Sci-fi but not unimaginable, engaging storyline and characters I could empathize with. Wish there were several more seasons to binge! Hope The Message is just as good 🤞.
Nice twist at the end.....
Life after 2. Sasha is back, Charlie and Ross help fbi fight it again!! Please !!!!
lif-e.aft/ter was quite good. I must say. Wow.
Charlie equals an audio-only Max Headroom.

Love it.
the message was slow getting into it but was good in the end looking forward to doing life after now
really loved the life after and now I'm listening to the message
I'm pretty sure Connor McCloud is the guy from Dexter. the Mexican cop , can't remember character's name
Instead of focusing on telling a good story and pursuing a sense of realism in science fiction, you purposefully inserted banal ideologies to interrupt the flow. It's a shame.
Lif-e.af/ter - Intriguing storyline ruined by terrible voice acting for the main character. His emoting was unnatural and unrealistic. Like a caricature of human emotion. Hyper sensitive, hyper inquisitive, hyper distraught. Just be a normal person for goodness sake. Not everything needs to be so dramatic all the damn time. If someone spoke like that in real life they'd sound like a complete tool. Throughout the show Ross Barnes comes across as a spineless wuss. The ending basically reinforces this - absolutely no self respect.
So far, one of the best podcasts. Could not stop listening.
yes, msm journalism is dead. They did it to themselves.
Hands down one of the best audio dramas out there. Love the message and Life After.
Life After was absolutely amazing. I'm about to start The Message and I know I'll like it as well. Am I correct in assuming whoever wrote this also wrote Steal the Stars? I know for a fact I heard Dak later on in Life After. Either way, good stuff!
I like it so far
