Mara Davis • Paste Magazine • Jul 18, 2022
"Kaboli really takes you there, describing all the sights, while the sounds of the ocean, birds, cabaret performances and wind swirl in the background. Those lucky enough to live or visit, can enjoy charity events, wild parties and lots of debauchery. But it’s the touching stories of survival that keep you listening and making new friends along the way. …"

"...breezy and colorful...With playful episode titles like “Sassy” and “Dumb Slut Summer,” Welcome to Provincetown is at once vibrant and soothing, like auditory comfort food."

Fiona Sturges • Financial Times • Jun 26, 2022
"...atmospheric podcast that provides compelling character studies against a backdrop of small-town seaside life. Kaboli is at her best when simply being the listeners’ eyes and ears, making casual observations such as the fact that pushchairs in Provincetown are more likely to carry dogs than babies, and coaxing strangers into sharing their thoughts and fears. In doing so, she gives us a “reality” series in the real sense of the word."

"Welcome to Provincetown feels like a throwback, particularly when compared against the kinds of narrative podcasts that make up the bulk of new releases these days. (Kaboli) She has, over the course of her career, exhibited a striking ability to balance the accessible and the experimental, and this new project continues the streak."

Lauren Passell • Podcast The Newsletter • Jun 20, 2022
"It feels a little like superbly made reality TV—just as enticing yet so well-produced you’ll feel like you’re on the beach. It’s like personal narrative on speed—each character gets their own rich treatment and storyline that serves as a portal into a loud and fun beach town you wish you were visiting, instead of sitting on your couch writing about."

"...heartwarming...gossip, fun and touching moments."
