As of right now only 2 episodes have been available but so far I really enjoy it. can't wait for more episodes to drop. the production was done very well.

Great listen

The story really compelled me. What women have to do and or become to have power, alongside what can happen to an idea born from good intentions and how monsters will twist that vision. I loved the submersible sounds, you really feel like you are along for the ride. Great listen!

Future problems

This was a pretty good story that was performed well.
Interesting that the tech was just the holograms backed by real humans at the company and that the customers knew that. I would have thought it would include AI since it passes the Turing test at this point. But, it is a necessary choice for the story development.
The acting was great and the sound effects appropriate (sometimes they can muddle the story).
However, there are ads that are slipped in to the middle of each episode. You don’t know they are coming and at first you are trying to figure out how they relate to the story. Once you realize what’s happening you can forward through them if it’s safe and convenient to do so, but it’s annoying and takes you out of the story.

Pretty Good

Incredibly powerful story, performed exquisitely. Way more complex than I expected from the premise, and not pretentious at all despite how easy it would have been to slip into preachy bs and tropes. Loved it.

wow

I really like the story, the actors etc just the ads thrown in the middle of the story throws the flow off and is really irritating. The beginning ads I get but don't throw them right in the middle of the story. Besides that, it was a good storyline.

Interesting story, hate the ads

Very good story. Trigger warning as it does deal with SA events as well as suicide. The voice acting was excellent, the story had some great twists and turns. One minute you are routing for a character the next you start to hate them and then back around again. The only issue I have is the episodes are short at 30min so it makes the 5 min commercial in the middle a bit annoying. But the story is strong enough to plough through it.

Worth the time to listen.
