Season 3?
End of Season 2 left me wanting more! I hate cliff hangers. I hope there is a S3!

Great story telling. My imagination captured all of the essences of the sound.

Creepy, gross, and AMAZING
I was blown away by the voice acting in this podcast. Daphne Rubin Vega does an incredible job, and the other actors are excellent as well. It is a modern-day Sweeney Todd set in Manhattan, with everything you might imagine and more. The meat pies are traded for empanadas, the barber for a masseuse, the British cast of characters for a colorful bunch fitting the diverse and strange people who crowd a major U.S. city. It's gory, yes, but not in the way of a slasher flick - the violence is measured and unforgotten through Dolores' eyes. If you don't faint at the sight (or sound) of blood, you should absolutely listen to this one.

Affirmative action Sweeney Todd
Obviously this is a retelling of Sweeney Todd. They hit all the diversity points they could with this one man.. they even went as far as to have no white people whatsoever except for the big bad evil cops. This has got to be one of the worst, most phoned in podcasts I’ve even had the mispleasure to hear. Diversity for diversities sake ruins art. And you see it plain and clear here.

Gross noises
Cannot stand all the eating and slurping noises that are so constant.

Really entertaining felt like the end was told too fast. I loved Season 1.

Crack Empanadas
Best Podcast to date
I love this podcast with all my heart. I’ve listened to it fully at least 3 times. When the second season came out, I about screamed; I was so excited! The second season is amazing. The voice actors, the background sounds, everything is perfection. I can’t get over this podcast, please get it a listen.

Intriguing
Couldn’t stop listening. The voices are spot on for this performance!

WHAT?!
I didn't think this was my kind of thing - and normally it wouldn't be- but this is superbly written, superbly acted (seriously, kudos to the voice of Dolores, she's amazing), and brilliantly twisted. I admit that S1 seemed somewhat better but there was no stopping me once I got going. I can't believe how S2 ended and a *desperate* for more episodes! Please don't leave me hanging!

3 Names Needed Only
....and they are: 1.Daphne. 2.Rubin. 3.Vega. Coming from a social worker’s perspective at first I was, like, “She’s gotta make it, she’s just gotta!” The typical “a-black-woman-is-victimized-once-again-by-the-judicial-system-via-white-power-narrative” is TURNED ON IT’S HEAD. It’s like watching a car wreck happen right in front of you: So horrifically traumatic yet averting these ears I will not. The Horror of Delores Roach is an audaciously spell-binding auditory feast I gladly gorge upon. I may vomit via visceral gut-wrenching disgust. Recovery is a must. Maybe I’ll go get a massage after Ive listened to the final episode.

Delores is my dark horse
Please, I need more! The Best Podcast ever written and acted!

Deep and dark writing is great
Love the deep dark and twisted story. It’s a pretty scary look at how quickly things can get out of hand and get dark. Evil in fact . The voice acting is great! Makes for a great story while commuting to work

Mind blowing head shaking creativity!
This evolves down crazy twisty dark tunnels. Amazing writing and great acting. Huh?!! What???!!! Constantly shocking yet real. Love this!!!

Shocked at 2nd season
Obviously Gimlet didn’t go above and beyond for the 2nd season like they had for season 1. Season 2 starts well but goes down hill quickly. They wrapped this story up so quickly that it leaves the listener confused. I for sure thought there would at least be another episode.
TeeKB3AT

Robbinband
Love it!
I’ve never reviewed a podcast before but I love this one! It starts out innocent enough but then starts taking twisted turns. The pace isn’t too fast but just enough to keep me intrigued. Very well done!

The score by Allison Layton-Brown!
Superb. Also sick and twisted, in a good way. Give it space and time and listen in the dark. Very monologue heavy but this is a pleasure because the voice is Daphne Rubin Vega. If she was a drink she would be an aged mescal in a crystal goblet shaped like the skull of Mark Twain. The score is... amazing, it doesn’t intrude but it drives the whole mood of the piece to perfection. Full review at andyspodcasterpodcastingpodcast.com Spoiler - it gets a Mystery Meat and a ‘Saucy Jack.’

2nd season
Is that it for the second season? 5 episodes?
MsRose22
So freaking gory
Well made podcast so gave it 4 stars but it’s so gory and nasty that I had to stop listening to it. Nasty crazy and just totally sick
MusicSusanna
Boring
Maybe I just don’t like the NY accent. Episode 1 was boring to me honestly.
djtiaely
This show.....
This show was my introduction to podcasts and I can honestly say. I have listened to a lot since I heard season 1. Nothing beats it. Nothing.
GabbsE
2nd season mediocre
First season was good second season not good
Smith Law
So glad to see this back!
I love horror podcasts, and when I stumbled across this, I was hooked from word one. The voice actress is phenomenal, and season one is one you’ll want to listen to again, because the second time through is a whole new experience. Can’t wait to listen to season two!

Needlessly gross
I’m thrilled that Gimlet is making fiction podcasts. I hope they do more. But this second season is a miss for me. I suppose it’s fine if you’re into learning how to filet a human body, but it’s pretty grotesque for no reason, without a ton of plot so far
pizzacasey
OMG!
Love season 2! I cannot believe my ears! Episode 5 - talk about a cliff hanger!
Ynot3245
Just When You Thought...
Dolores could not get any freakier, season 2 does! It’s awesome! Best way to experience her tale is riding the NYC subways. It takes it to a whole new level. Great way to pass the commute time. Don’t look down the tunnels too long. You might see and hear things...
Step on Dean
Where’s the rest?
Does season 2 end at episode 5???

Wow
This is such a great podcast! I’m so happy that there are stories like this around. I found 2 great fiction podcasts in one day. This one and another called Lennie Gray.
Earl Sewell
Welcome back

Bad for anyone with misophonia
I should’ve guessed it. Don’t listen to this podcast if you’re triggered by mouth or eating noises. I mean, it is about cannibals so i should’ve supposed there may be some, but they started off strong with that nonsense in the first episode. Too many ads anyway. Well, maybe i could handle the number of ads if they were given all in one shot instead of sprinkled throughout the episode. It totally delineates from the immersive aspect of the podcast and always takes me out of it completely. This is the main reason why i try not to listen to podcasts by gimlet unless i’m really struggling to find something to listen to.

Blew me away!
This has become a fav for me. The voice acting was outstanding. The story was so well contrived. The cast... was simply amazing. Bravo!!
