Loved it!

Entertaining story and excellent performances. Though I am good with the cliffhanger of an ending, I admit I would enjoy more episodes.

karen mom

This overall is very well written and performed, and it's engaging. But by God the mom character is so annoying. What on earth possessed the writer to make the mom a karen?? She's just annoying to listen to. If your intent was to annoy the listener, job well done I guess. But why would you want that lmao

Great series can’t wait for more!

The story is very engaging from the very beginning. Jessica Chastain is great of course and she really engages the listener in her world. Can’t wait for season two!!

Contrived.

I listen to two episodes. I wanted it to be more flesh and bone, but it sounds like an AI written podcast.. the characters don’t have character. The story and the dialogue sound as if it was written by talented high school children. There’s no point in the story of the two episodes that I felt like I could connect with any of the characters. Everything sounds fake and tired. I wanted it to be more human and even if just the child didn’t sound that human I would’ve been fine, but at no point did any part of the dialogue sound remarkable or relatable.
