Counterbalance - Podcast Rankings and reviews

Delicate & exquisite sound design delivering on the high fantasy promise that feels both surreal & realistic, medieval but current — I’m already invested in these characters too due to some superb writing — so subscribe now & join me, won’t you?

The writing is done so well I didn’t expect to get hooked so easily. I love the style choice to have little noises while two characters are talking to have it flow a lot more seamlessly that’s brilliant, such good quality for what I’m assuming is an indie production the hard work the team puts in really shows. The characters feel like fleshed out individuals and not boiled down to a few characteristics, I can relate to them and empathize with them. Sensitive subjects are handled with so much care and the warnings at the beginning are more than appreciated as someone who listens when I work so I don’t really have the option to pause and check the description/transcript. I can’t wait to see how these characters and the production team grow in future seasons!

The story has really drawn me in and I can’t wait for more! The only downside is that it only comes out once a month, but if that’s the price I have to pay for the amazing story with such amazing production value, then I’ll gladly pay it.
