"Carrier is an immersive podcast that left me on the edge of my seat. I’d recommend against listening to QCode’s latest podcast while driving. When I queued up Carrier for the first time to listen while running errands, I jumped out of my seat when it kicked off with an intense introduction that bounced the sound from speaker to speaker, and closed with the blaring horn of a tractor trailer truck. But while the actors bring the intense story to life, what really sets the series apart is the studio’s attention to sound design, putting together a world that had me listening at the edge of my seat — and sometimes jumping right out of it."
Score: 4.9

"...listening to Carrier is a completely different experience. Since I discovered what a neat experience listening to it was, when new episodes are released, I completely zone in and listen to it instead of listening while cleaning, cooking, etc. It’s that good. Do not listen to it in the car. Take the time to use headphones."
