I love listening to this episode!! Lara Sawalha was AMAAAAZING!!! I always get goosebumps when she tells the story of the drowned victim <3 <3 <3
Danneth Sanguis
This is the second episode I noticed the click of the tape recorder
Mon221B
Just an FYI, the transcripts have the episode's title as "Good Show." Another fun one!

Jesus christ I could see where this was going when they were asking where the venison was. Bloody hell
Rainstroll
I am so intrigued by the fact that Alice recognised the tape recorder and was so spooked by it that she ran away from someone she thought was dying. “I’m sorry, I can’t” She has seen these before and she knows that they mean trouble. I think she realised that this was something paranormal and wanted nothing to do with it, that is how she has survived this long.
TheBeanShoppe
She WHaT?
Juna Colada
fantastic episode but i really jumped at some sudden loud bits. Idk if that's a mixing issue or just comes from having to turn up my car stereo quite a bit to hear it properly.
Reynard Du Maurier
I’m not an academic, I haven’t wrote those studies, have a beef with them not me.
Gareth Green
“Bloodshed and sacrifice” is not the same as “war”.
Reynard Du Maurier
Depends on the source where you look her up. Shooting down children in wild abandon because their mom insulted your mom makes people classify her one at some sources. No mention that the earliest sources that can be tied to her is from the Minoan period, is literally the embodiment of bloodshed and sacrifice.
Desiree Chippett
I think that’s Athena
Ian
That was great
Kristsune
the sound design for this episode was absolutely incredible. matched the impeccable writing perfectly
RoamingNPC
Kinda refreshing to get a straight forward hunt episode
Jeff Miller
I love this show so much, but I’m begging Rusty Quill to please ensure the audio is still comprehensible when there are echo effects. I was listening while driving, and the opening and ending sounded like gibberish to me. I had to pick up the transcript later to have any idea what happened
Bresby
Awesome episode. I loved it and am going to be theorizing like anything. However, this is the second episode in a while where I’ ve been frustrated by information that is clear in the transcript but not the audio. Without the transcript , I would have had no clue that there was a tape recorder at the end, which is a really important detail! And a lot of listeners don’t read the transcripts. It’s similar to how a few weeks ago audio only viewers had no clue Celia was waking up on the side of the road in her pajamas.
isaac
feeling a lot of things
Ambrose, First And Last
Was the lady at the end reading a statement or
Ambrose, First And Last
God. Feeling alice more and more recently
Kate McKiernan
From the first phrases of her description, I was internally screaming. I didn’t even do the ARG! But she was either Alex or Jonny’s favorite to write, so I’ve been waiting for her.
Reynard Du Maurier
Good point
Gareth Green
No she isn’t.
GloriousGe0rge
Lady M feels like the anti-Gertrude. Corrupted by the hunt completely, and embracing her powers. Her little punny "catch you later" so unsettling coming from a Hunter.
alex cervantes
at the end, with the tape recorder, the person muttering, almost chanting about the deep and the ocean, do you all think that could be Alison Leshi from episode 11?
ShinyPenUnlimited
Incredible episode though
ShinyPenUnlimited
I’m confused
Reynard Du Maurier
Artemis is a god of war too, don’t forget that.
Valerie Kaplan
No, but (a) she featured in the ARG and (b) she’s one of the characters who were listed in the casting announcement, so I just perked up because I know her to be Important.
Gareth Green
Have we heard her before?
Gareth Green
I always did associate the Hunt with Diana/Artemis
Metin Coker
The way that lady Mowbray can literally smell that Celia is from a different dimension LMAO
esmeeeeeeee
amazing ep omg
Valerie Kaplan
Lady M! My eyes actually went wide.
Ester Ramos Carmona
I go to the Gladstone a lot wtf. Too real
Possumcat
So Anusia isn't listed in the credits you need to check it out.
Kate McKiernan
F yeah, we meet Lady M! Talk about a mid-season 🎤⤵️. An excellent spin on “The Most Dangerous Game.” So often, retellings add very little. But making others play at gunpoint? That’s a great take.

"hostile work enviorment" might be the understatment of the century
Grace 'Gengar' Soria
Oh, crap, I didn't expect that last part was gonna rattle me so hard. Alice trying so hard to save the victim, and being so scared... damn, that made me feel dizzy.
MarlaBothBothIsGood
EVIL LADY EVIL LADY EVIL SCARY LADYYYYY AND WHAT A FUCKING ENDING (meanwhile the protocol team keeps enacting the horror romcomish version of Challengers)
Sebi Tealeaf
Confused!! Delighted!! What!!
Voltz
THE TAPE RECORDER oh this episode was so good
John Curry
Had to laugh at the “hostile work environment” tag
mercury on the moon
the transcripts say "Good Show" for the title instead of "Well Run"
mercury on the moon

Dell Helena

Rowan
That was so creepy, love the Hunt but the Victim at the end was so unsettling!
Andi G
That is wise.
mora!
absolutely horrific ^^ especially that ending! amazing vocal performance from both alice and the victim
Ace
dying at how celia’s entire existence is weird as hell but also EVERYTHING that just happened
Ninn
Ohh woah, some particularly disturbing moments in this one! What a great introduction for Lady Mowbray! Also, I have more and more questions about Celia.
ckseldon
Oh jesus christ, Sam, that is a Choice for a second date. Oh no.
HeavenlyBibi
He’s really flexing his writing skills
Vicky F Faye
And then the Tape Recorder made its return, to muddy the waters once more… Love the ep
Spooknett

Aryn Jae

Nawal Fisher
I’m even more convinced Alice *knows* and she’s maybe the avatar on this side.
Fae

grace

Cassie Seyer
