RATING
What a wild ride this podcast is and I'm here for every second of it. These demons are the best and I only hope for good things for all of them. The story is hilarious and it nails the 1999 setting to a tee.
Look, I love a well-executed joke about Hot Topic so I'm the ideal audience for this, I was IN. Set in 1999 in a suburban mall, with an ensemble of misfit demons from Hell, this is a show that is so specific in the vibe it wants to create and so committed to immersing you in it, you can’t help but be won over from that awesome theme song onward. It has some of my favorite comedic punchlines in any audio comedy (there’s a line about Satan’s favorite dish in episode one that I’ll never get over, I was 100% in love from there on out). Anything less than full commitment from the actors would not have worked and I’m happy to report they are batting 1000 (is that the phrase? whichever one is the great one)--perfect pairing of material to artists in every way. LOVE
There are very few things that I hate more than a guy exporting his personal drama into his workplace, angrily shouting and berating his employee for things that she had nothing to do with, and the show acting like that's not toxic workplace bullshit. Demon or not, comedic sociopathy or not, I hate the way that this show just does nothing to address it. He doesn't apologize for turning his employee into a verbal punching bag, doesn't show her kindness or respect, and yet, his employee likes him. This easy forgiveness for entitled jerks needs to die.Most of the other characters are fine and Xaphan is great. Crucially, none of them are economically dependent on jerkface, so they get to insult him with impunity, which makes my heart sing. But the episodes feel like they run too long and the central mystery concerns the absence of a beloved character, or so they keep telling me. Unfortunately, that's not the same as showing me, so I find myself not caring.
Its a simple context and fairly slow introduction to the MC, there is very few other characters and the ones that are present doesn't take up to much space or muddle the main story.The story feels very original and is also character driven and slow in its world building which i really like. It also feels original and really good and nor over flairy in its sound design.
Easily the funniest thing I've ever heard. This is tied with The Black Tapes for best podcast ever, for very different reasons. I need more. However, you'll give it to me, podcast, books, tv show or movies. The characters are so well done and the story is actually really interesting even though it didnt need to be with how amazing the characters are.
This was the first ever Podcast I got into when I started my Pod journey and what an amazing Podcast it is. I have absolutely fallen in love with it and seriously can't wait to hear more! The story is hilarious and very well written, the characters are likable and well presented by the actors. All in all, if you're looking for a comedy fiction podcast, then look no further as it's wonderful in every way possible. Please release more soon!
A well made audio drama that takes a look back at 1999 and puts in some hell-spawn for good measure. Fun characters that bounce off each other really well and a simple story about ending the world makes this an easy listen. For me, it took a few episodes to find its feet but after that point, I found this an enjoyable listen and I am interested to hear more.
Oddball, hilarious take on late 90s mall culture and the madness of Y2k. Oh yeah, and demons! Love it.
I LOVE this podcast. Laugh out loud and cerebrally funny!
This was fun! this one could start up again and I would be happy
This podcast is sO FUN. Just an utterly delightful listen.
Love the voice acting and sound design. Writing is great, story is really funny. Hope to hear more!
my comfort podcast. i relisten to this one all the time, i desperately need season 2.
AHHH ITS SO GOOD MMMMM
Hilarious, satirical, and lovable characters. A wild entertaining ride.
I just re-listened to the entire season and loved it even more the second time. I sincerely hope there is a season 2. Great acting - you can tell the cast had fun making this. I love this weird band of demons and their band. I hope they make Xaphan a permanent member.
My favorite podcast
Wonderfully funny 90's throwback combined with silly demons.
I love this show. The demons are wonderfully awful and the nineties are also wonderfully awful. Even though they're, well, demons, you can't help but root for this band of dorks as they damn their way through life at the mall.
