Our curated selection of reviews
My children loved listening to this! I enjoyed the story (which had a few twists!), the characters, and the acting. The plot and details are very well thought out and explored. The production value is phenomenal- music, sound effects and the voices of the characters were so well done. It reminded me of what an old radio broadcast story might sound like. The dialogue was very realistic (although Edith and Paul were often used to describe things for audio-only purposes), and at times I was laughing about something that was said. I also loved seeing the Mallards Catholic faith in action- in some prayers but mostly in how they treated others and the relationships they formed. I would love to hear more multi-episode stories like this!

Our family loved this story! My kids kept begging to hear what happened next. We can’t wait for a new story, but we’ll definitely be listening to the night train again! And as a mom, I can’t say enough how much I appreciate a good family story that incorporates in a simple way our Catholic faith. Thank you!

So thankful to find this podcast. We listened on our 6 hour long car trip each way and my young children were entertained and enriched by the story. Will be following The Merry Beggars to see what they do next!
