"Very nice and subtle exposition, excellent acting from a stellar cast ( I do have to say ) and fun while also very much hitting some nails on the head with societal commentary. It takes a minute to sink into the style, but I think we’re all getting there with the influx of audio drama we’ve seen over the last years. We got used to movies, tv, and audiobooks since the radio age. This is a refresher for us."
