Season 3 Chrysalis is SO GOOD. I was blown away.

I started following Dust as a Facebook page and where they had sci-fi shorts that were always really intriguing. I then found the podcast and it has definitely taken their story telling to the next level. The production value is great and you really get immersed in the story. I highly recommend.

I also recently learned Dust produced a movie starring Pedro Pascal called Prospect that was also good. They are doing great things. I genuinely look forward to what they'll produce in the future.

best stories ever!!!

to the tenacity of the human spirit, this is by far in my opinion the most exciting story telling I've heard. to you folks at gunpowder and sky excellent job... ok on another note. Why in the bloody hell are you breaking the theatrics of the story by putting freaking commercials in the middle of it like it's really guys come on put them in the beginning of the end not in the middle

Great Si-Fi short and long stories!

The host voice is awesome, draws you in right away.
The stories are varied in season one but keeps you interested and relistening to parts just to make sure you hear it right. 😉 Season 2, Flight 008, is a series of episodes with a loosely tied thread, time travel, some episodes were better than others but all were entertaining. The vocal narrations throughout have been very good so far with background sounds/music tying great with the stories. Great podcast, now on to listen to season 3! 😁❤️

Dust: Chrysalis is INCREDIBLE but…

The ads are absolutely the worst and breakup each episode midway and usually at climactic points. Pretty much everything is good, but season 3 Chrysalis I’ve listened to three times and recommend it to everyone. Absolutely thrilling every time. So well-read and beautifully written.
