yooo that thing with Tamara gasping for air sounds VERY STAGED! It sounds fake. Why would she just out of the blue start gasping for air 🥴

😂😂😂 when she said "I'm sorry? pronouns?" this was my very exact same reaction the first time someone said that to me! Because WHAT? why would we automatically know that an entire group of people decided to be known by their own created pronouns whether born that way or not..... COMPLETELY CONFUSING. But I will say I'm up to date on knowing what all that means NOW (2024)

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.

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 🤞.

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.
