Story is incomplete but WHAT a ride!

Revisado: 09-03-23

If you're standing in line at the grocery store or waiting on the metro or on hold with customer service and you just need a little distraction, these super short, well produced, well acted episodes are great.

Heads up, this is season 1 and it ends on a big reveal cliffhanger. Apparently season 2 never got made so don't expect to be satisfied at the ending of the last episode.

One annoying thing is the length of the intro and outro on each episode. No need for such a long theme song at the beginning and end when the content itself is fewer than 12 minutes.

Very good voice acting NOT a very good story

Revisado: 02-27-23

The readings were excellent. More like acting than just narrating. Unfortunately it was in the service of a story that was neither thrilling, heartstopping or even horrifying. Unlikeable and unrelatable characters. The plot jumping through time does nothing to enhance the story. The monsters aren't even that interesting. Would not recommend.

Delightful piece of escapism pap. Funny and breezy

The narrator's Biden voice is great and his Obama cadence is hilarious. His tone is like out of an old gumshoe movie.

Very Engaging Read For Feminists And Marketers

Revisado: 08-15-16

Andi does an excellent job of exploring how feminist themes got co-opted, sugared, and repackaged as sales pitches by the capitalist system. She does an eloquent job of analyzing how this repackaging actually undercuts the ideology of solidarity and collective action needed to achieve feminsim's humanistic goals and instead substitutes individual consumerism as feminist action. What is very, very uneloquent is the articulation of the reader.

The reader was unprofessional. When the text spoke of Andi's publishing career the reader pronounced the word "zine" (a contraction of the word magazine) as "zyne" the first time and "zeen", the proper pronunciation, the subsequent times. The reader pronounced the magazine title Nete A Porter as if the title was not from French.

Those reading foibles could be overlooked if this reader did not pull me right out of the book every time she did not mouth cross the double "tt"s in the words "written" and "button". Plus the reader softens the "or" in the middle of the word "important". A reader is suppose to either disappear altogether as the listener gets enfold ed in the text. Or the reader is suppose to enrich the text with character voices. The reader is NOT suppose to pull the listener out of the text. Yet that is exactly what this reader did.
