I could be listening to Magnus Archives

I’ve been listening to audiobooks/podcasts every day for six years while at work and on drives (9+ hours a day) and I’ve never relistened to something as much as this
the writing, ambience, and performance are some of the best I’ve herd

Great Podcast, audible sucks at it though

Okay so first things first:

This podcast is incredible. The Magnus Archives is a horror fiction podcast of unparalleled story, narration, ambience, and just all around tremendously well done. The characters are incredible, the plot is sublime, and the voice acting is too notch in all but 1 or 2 places where it's just slightly (and I mean very very slightly) hammy. Overall this podcast is one of my favorite fiction stories that there are.

HOWEVER:

Audible is a bad platform to listen to it on. Audible has an appalling habit of treating podcasts as constant livestreams, where "next" episode means "latest" episode, and so trying to listen to this series in order means you will have to manually select each new episode yourself, or risk being sent to the very last episode that there is when each episode ends.

You will also have to deal with your Audible App freezing and glitching out when you try and swap from a podcast episode to an actual audiobook, or vice vursa, because Audible treats them differently. If you try and swap back and forth, the app with slow down so much and eventually freeze altogether, and the only way I have found to fix the issue is to turn your phone to Airplane Mode just to stop it from dropping into a permanent loading lock.

Downloading each canonical episode seems to help a little, but even then: if you want to have a playlist of Magnus Archives episodes in order, you'll have to play around with turning airplane mode on and off to "reset" your audible apps loading. This app is a terrible way to listen to them, don't do it unless you are willing to open your phone every 20-30 minutes to manually select the next episode, because:

YOUR PHONE WILL NOT AUTOMATICALLY GO TO THE NEXT EPISODE, EVER, AT ALL, IN ANY CIRCUMSTANCE, AT ALL, EVER, when using audible.

Now, all that being said, this podcast is still absolutely a 10 out of 10 podcast if you love horror, fiction, complete stories, or just good writing and voice acting in general.

Depth rarely seen in other horror podcasts.

Amazing, intense, exhilarating. I stumbled into this from a clip on tiktok from episode 93, I am so happy to have found such an intriguing depth of story and horror. From the first episode completely pulling me in, to when the story starts to take on a life of its own. Truly fascinating and thrilling.

the best story podcast I've ever listened to

It starts out a bit slow, but picks up quickly. I would recommend this to anyone who has the time.

Rapturing!

I got into this to bond with my niece, and stayed for the storytelling and suspense. The story is well thought out, the acting is great, and it’s actually impressively somewhat unpredictable (not entirely, but better than most). I’d be lying if I didn’t admit that as a 31-year-old who lives alone, I didn’t check my locks more than usual some nights while being unappreciative of my noisy house.

wait, what's going on?

this story sadly is one of the more distracting episodes. this one requires the listener to have their undivided attention I can't recall what just happened other than this person is dreaming of an alternate London or something.
since I drive a lot more these days I've been currently listening to these archives and some have grabbed my attention more than others some have given me a WTF what was going on?
the story is probably more for those who read dreams and stuff.

my only critique would be that if you're going to talk about something that's obscure having some audio cues or something to help fill in the imagination or something would probably help out more for those of us who are not strong

Life changing

This is single-handedly, one of the best podcast with storytelling that I’ve ever listen to.
When I say that, I’ve been fully satisfied with this podcast, I can’t even begin to tell you how satisfied and wonderful the storytelling and the characters are. It leaves you on just the edge at the very end, but you know exactly what happened.
