I dunno, today's wasn't bad.. Also, I'm biting my tongue on the super unique new character on The Bright Sessions. New Leaf fucked around with this message at 21:08 on Apr 27, 2017 |

Insulting to who, exactly? The fictional character?

The Magnus Archives. For real. It's the loving best.

But how can you say with such confidence that she wasn't brought on for that very reason? We know 4 or 5 things about her, none of which is unique to the story, and one of which is her sexuality. We may be looking at it like a box on a checklist, but that's only because it's exactly the way the author presented it to us. And look, if I didn't like The Bright Sessions, I wouldn't listen. There's something interesting about this group of the world's lamest X-Men. I just hope she can find without stumbling over herself.

Today's TANIS is easily the best they've done in a long time. Holy poo poo, that ending.. It makes me want to re-listen to the entire thing. Edit: Holy poo poo, today's Magnus Archive thanked me in the intro as a Patreon supporter! New Leaf fucked around with this message at 18:34 on May 3, 2017 |

Episodes like today's are what keeps me listening to The Bright Sessions. That was really, really good!

This is why - despite all my complaints - I keep listening to TBS. They are capable of awesome stories.

I've said it before, but Magnus would make a stellar modern take on a show like "The Twilight Zone" or something. Different low budget actors every week acting out the story while someone narrates.

Rabbits is loving weird. I still prefer Tanis.

The volume seems really low on this Bright Sessions. I'm 2 notches below maxed out on my headset. If I was listening to music at this volume I'd blow my eardrums out.

So Mabel is good? I'm a couple episodes in. Is it all a crazy person on voicemail messages? It's very "Night Vale" in a way.. New Leaf fucked around with this message at 16:29 on Jun 7, 2017 |

Yeah I'm definitely getting into it. Very creepy.

It sounds like the strange disjointed mutterings of the Faceless Old Woman.. or maybe a bit like "Alice Isn't Dead" at parts. At any rate, its very compelling. I'm ~7 episodes in and just started this afternoon.

I'll be honest, I enjoyed Mabel more in the earlier episodes. I'm caught up except for one that came out in the last few days, and I could do without ear-splitting yelling out of nowhere..

Montalvo posted:Oh, it starts having jumpscares? That's bogus, I might stop listening then. I scare easily and mostly listen to podcasts while driving, so that's probably not a good combo. I wouldn't call them jump scares, but some messages are just screaming or loud crying.

..a feature length musical podcast? What the gently caress does that mean?

I'm not entirely sure how I feel about Mabel anymore. The writing is very creative, but the dialogue doesn't sound like dialogue.. It sounds like a goth chick got a thesaurus and this is her high school journal. Also, this Rabbits sounded more like an episode of Tanis.. I feel like these two are a lot more intertwined than Tanis was with TBT. New Leaf fucked around with this message at 16:55 on Jun 21, 2017 |

Is anyone a Tanis Patron? If so, how is the bonus content? I don't mind hearing Nic's ramblings but don't know if I want to spend money for it.

I'm a fan, but its been spinning its wheels for a while. I think Tanis and Rabbits are much more similar than Tanis and The Black Tapes were.

Tanis has so much promise, but you can't solve the mystery because the podcast is over, so they're going to be perpetually spinning their wheels until they get bored of it and have some sort of ultra unsatisfying conclusion. Which really sucks. I genuinely like Tanis, but I think I mostly just like hearing Nic tell me stories.
