🌌🌈👩‍⚕️

"I was a Doctor Who fan as a kid, watching pirated broadcasts on skechy UHF channels on an 11" black-and-white TV. Listening to this put me right back in my room as an 8-year-old. Such a great series, and this is a great adaptation!" – Evo Terra

🎙️🕵️‍♂️📜

"At the risk of being hyperbolic, I believe this podcast sets a new bar for fiction podcasts. The production isn't just good—it's seamless. If you were sad when the TV show Sherlock ended a decade ago, this is the fix you've been looking for. With just a smidge of Monty Python humor to help blunt the serious subject matter." - Evo Terra
