Alpha 8 - Podcast Rankings and reviews

This is an elevated audio drama landscape with its enthralling blend of sci-fi adventure and storytelling.

The strength of the podcast lies not only in its imaginative storyline with Alpha 8 and the family, but also in the execution. The sound design is meticulously crafted, enveloping listeners in a fully immersive sci-fi environment.

Effects are not just background noise; they enhance the tension and emotion of the narrative, making each scene more intense.

The acting brings an authentic gravitas to the unfolding drama. Performances are nuanced and heartfelt, conveying the desperation of a mother's love across species boundaries —it's a thought-provoking ride.

I love sci-fi - especially when it has actual ideas, not just aliens with guns vs. humans with guns. Alpha 8 is great!! It not only has ideas - it has characters!!! The first episode grabbed me and held me from start to finish. The characters are so vivid - so well drawn - I immediately felt like I knew them and their world. Can’t wait for more!

I listened to all eight episodes of Alpha 8 multiple times and everything about this Si-Fi drama was excellently done. The creative writing was of the chart and the accompanying soundtrack aptly drew you into the action, allowing you to easily visualize what was happening. Each episode kept you wondering what’s next? So I can’t wait until season two drops, to find out “what’s next”.

The description is accurate in that you’re getting the classic sci-fi premise of aliens coming to understand humans by being among us, the usual government paranoia about said aliens, and the fish-out-of-water wackiness that occurs. What I really enjoy about the series are the distinct personalities and motivations of the different family members and the very real moments of parenting and family life amid the sci-fi tale.
