Season 2 of Homecoming is, after Magnus Archives, the best executed second season in any story podcast I've listened to.

So just to clarify re that last episode of Magnus: John interviews Jurgen in his office / the statement room; Elias somehow makes his way in there while Johnathan is out, beats Jurgen to death; Johnathan isn't seen for a few days and Martin and the other dude find the corpse in his office?. I don't know why I'm having such a hard time following this.

Arcsech posted:This is close to correct, but I'm not sure it's "John isn't seen for a few days" as much as "some unknown amount of time passes after John finds Jurgen, Tim and Martin think it's days but they've also been trapped by a supernatural entity known as "the distortion"/"the liar" so who knows. Got it, thanks. I feel like this show demands a greater degree of concentration and attention than I give podcasts.

Chairman Capone posted:I just got done bringing through all of Crimetown and while I loved the podcast, it had maybe the most miserable advertisements. Particularly because they reused the same recordings for the same products for every episode (and for a podcast where most episodes were ~30 minutes, I think six minutes or so were ads). The one advertising the group discussion of podcast hosts from that network as the narrator breathlessly describes it as an "extraordinary conversation" particularly grated. Crimetown got extremely boring extremely quickly; and the two narrators were trying way too hard to be gritty.

I don't mind the themes being explored in season 2 of Archive 81 -- it's just that I was listening to it because I was enjoying the themes explored in season 1. Once they made the shift, I lost interest.

I'm kind of hoping they use their hiatus to go back to more independent horror stories. I appreciate what they are trying to do with the interconnectedness, but as a casual listener that doesn't focus in on details all that much I feel like some of the stuff they're talking about is lost on me. I'd go back to listening to Pseudopod, but the quality of the stories / audio is too inconsistent.

Is there a good plot synopsis for the first two seasons of Alice Isn't Dead out there somewhere? I just started season 3 and have almost no memory of what happened besides the bare essentials of the story.

Mokinokaro posted:Season 1: Alice encounters and then is hunted by the Thistle man. Man-eating, ghoulish creatures. Her journey eventually takes her to an abandoned factory formerly ran by a company named Praxis where she witnesses a man holding his own burial at sea. She then encounters a whole town of Thistle men which causes her to give up and go home, only for them to hunt her down. She tries to go out in a blaze of glory by ramming her truck through their town, only for Alice to show up and to learn that her company Bay & Creek is actually a cover for a resistance vs the creatures. Keisha and Alice separate out of necessity.[/url] Thanks, this was useful!

Seeing the way in which Jonathan uses his "superpower" to force the truth from people to get the papers from that traffic warden in the latest episode of Magnus was great.

Magnus is a great podcast and the metaplot is interesting but I definitely prefer the episodes that address a standalone story. I think that's mainly because I feel like I don't get the most out of metaplot episodes because I'm not obsessing over every minute detail of the show and trying to piece of together.

I've been listening to Eskew while I take really long trips through very vast and empty regions of the galaxy in Elite: Dangerous and it's oddly a very very good mix of two very different things. I should catch up on the latest episode.

I did my best to enjoy S3 of Archive 81 but it was a bit too much zany kooky random weirdness for me. The Popeye's bit just pushed it a little too far.

Perhaps I'm being dense (to be fair I usually am when it comes to serialized fiction podcasts because by the time one episode comes out I've forgotten most of what happened in the previous one) but I felt like the most recent episode of Limetown did a fairly decent job of tying up loose ends? The only real questions that remain for me are who set the boat on fire? What am I missing?

vortmax posted:I can only think of two questions left unanswered at this point: I think so too. SalTheBard posted:I thought it was Daniel because he was enraged about Emile causing the death of the children Oh, you're right. So does that mean that the kids imagined a fire and drowned, so then Daniel got angry and set an actual fire going? I guess I kind of zoned out towards the end.

I enjoyed the Limetown season finale. I felt that having Charlie narrate her surroundings was consistent with the theme throughout the season of Emile having Charlie talk through things as a way to break down her mental barriers. I also felt that the Foley sounds that we heard when Emile is throwing the film reel on gave us a hint that Charlie had managed to escape from her restraints... which is also consistent with what she said about her skills as a soldier..

I couldn't make it through Season 3 of Archive 81 without getting bored. The premise was cool but I found the execution to be boring and just "random". It felt like an edgy Welcome to Nightvale. It's pretty clear from everyone else that I am the odd one out.
