What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

This podcast is the only thing that gets me through work. It’s endlessly entertaining, heartfelt, and extremely well written. It’s witty and gory and everything I look for in a story. My favorite track is Just. Don’t. Die. and everyone who reads this should go buy it on bandcamp

fhshaksiuw wbfncjxj ww · May 2025

Feeling lonely and so cold? All you have to do is turn on Woe.Begone. Get it? Because a lot of people listen to podcasts in a car? You get it.) It’s like Gilmore Girls if Lorelai had a tendency to spiral into existential dread mid-monologue and the quirky small-town drama (quaint secret government complex drama?) involved time travel, and casual m*rder. Tangents come fast, the story gets…weird. Somehow, it all works. Perfect for someone who enjoy unraveling conspiracies and their own sanity at the same time. Mmm, so cozy!

Gainsa · Dec 2024

I love this podcast, and honestly I love seeing where the story goes. It’s never what you expect. A lot of people around me don’t really seem to get that not everything has a $10,000 budget. However, I think that things that don’t have 8 investors and 7 minutes of credits can be better than a Hollywood hit movie. I love the dark humor, cowboys, mystery, sounds, and the fact that everyone has a good time. This podcast also comes out on my study hall days. TLDR: I’m pretty much the only person I know who likes this, and they’re missing out!

Lux, the demonic cat! · Nov 2024

This podcast and Mike Walters both grow on you like a mold. I need new narrative podcasts like I need air, and I’d just finished the Silt Verses when I stumbled upon this one. My thought process was “oh I’ll just listen to this one until I find something better… wait this is actually kind of good I’ll keep listening for now… this is really good I’m gonna make a Spotify playlist… wait oh actually this is one of my favorite podcasts.” I finished this whole thing in just a couple weeks, and am here for the long haul. Yee haw 🤠
