I’m not exactly sure how I found this recent fictional podcast. But I recall it ranked quite high and was narrated by some film and TV actors. I don’t think I’ve listened to any fictional podcasts before but it was from the same producers of Dr. Death (non-fictional) that was very well done.
So Blood Ties. Tasty setting, modern plot, evil theme and good audio atmosphere (hey, there’s probably a foley guy that deserves some credit). That’s it. Sorry. It did kill some time while walking my dog, heading to the gym and doing dishes, but come on...give me a twist at least. It was truly soap-operaish. I’m not sure what they were aiming for or who this was intended for, I’m just glad it was only 6 short episodes. But wait, there’s more...a cliff hanger. You could see it coming a mile away, oh please.
I don’t know how I fell for this, genius marketing, boredom, social-media AI, doesn’t matter. Don’t waste your time, there’s so much real and worthwhile entertainment available. Or you could just write your own better story.
