Popular Reviews of Me and AU

This show feels as if it were made for me specifically. It's so sweet and charming and fun. I love hearing Kate's passion and nerves and excitement. As a fan of fandom, fanfiction, werewolves, and potential kissing, it's just a delight to listen to. It's the charming rom-com you need in your life right now.

Me and AU is such a charming podcast about friends and fandom and fandom-shaped friendships that you cling to as the rest of your life spins. It's sweet and a nice pick-me-up. Like a really good snack.

A short, fun show! The romance is cute and the dialogue between the two characters is sweet and appropriately awkward at times. I like the love interest, but I would have loved to see a bit more substance to her character. I like how friendship is incorporated. Focuses on the fanfiction/transformative side of fandom and how connections can be made online.

Me and AU is a moving story about how media impacts our lives and how you can find the people who will change your life in very unexpected places. Klassen writes with a lot of joy and warmth and the characters feel very real, a reflection of where a lot of young people find themselves. Would highly recommend :)

Me & AU is an absolutely sweet story, well-written and well-told. I love that the connection is made within a mildly obscure (fictional) fandom, because so many of my own connections have been made in the same way. There is great queer representation, which is something I always appreciate. I'd say Me & AU is definitely becoming my favorite low stakes series, and I can't wait for the next episode.

A cute and oh-so-relatable story about friendship and love online, and how fandom can bring us together. Delightfully queer and not too long!

So cute and charming. It makes me wish I wrote fan fiction. This show just started but I'm already in love.

Why you should be listening to Me & AU: As someone who has never written a sentence of fan fiction, I’ll say that on the surface this show should probably not be for me…. but I ABSOLUTELY LOVE this show. And I can almost guarantee that if you’re reading this, you will too. Why am I so confident in saying this? 

The writing is incredibly relatable. Regardless of what your personal fandom is, you WILL FEEL the monologue from Episode One. On my second listen I’m still so impressed with the creative way the sound designer managed to differentiate between the scenes. One specific highlight for me were the harmonics they use when Kate was writing or reading messages. The VA portraying Kate turns in one of the most relatable and endearing performances of 2020. Up and down the roster, the MeandAU voice talent is perfectly cast in their roles. Even the text2speech bot. I’m now a permanent fan of this creative team.

I find myself returning to Me and AU frequently, because the characters are just so sweet! A truly delightful show, I'd recommend it to anyone who has spent any time in a fandom - especially a tiny one! The experience is well represented here :))

rly adorable, such wholesumly awkward nerdy characters in that cute/cringey way that makes u smile~ big neurodivergent vibes! light, sweet, charming, funny, queer, quirky- doesn't go deep but that's kinda not the point

A sweet love story with a banger OP
