Kaseyr89 ,

Great show except……

Annabella Crows voice is very hard on the ears. No offense please but her voice sounds terrible, very fake and unnatural. She sounds exact like she reading a script instead of it flowing naturally. I don’t want to hurt anyones feelings here but that is the only downfall to this show. Had she not been in the show I would have finished the series. I apologize if I hurt her feelings but this is what reviews are for right?

Hard to Get Into and Drawn Out

I was very excited to listen to this until I started it. It is awkward and very difficult to get through. No offense to anyone because I can tell you worked hard on this but it’s not great. The name is deceiving and some of the voice actors were completely unconvincing and some of the voices are like nails on a chalkboard. The comedy is not funny either and I’m sorry but I can only be honest here.

NoSleep detox

Listened to all of the NoSleep podcast plus bonus content twice and was legitimately going through withdrawals. This helped get the monkey off my back xD Also, the scene in episode nine where they mention brick dust gave me the giggles so GD hard I almost dropped my phone XD Also, “is that Finn’s jacket?”
