Omg Gwen Bouchard!!!!!! Related to Elias no doubt. no wonder shes picky about doing this right.
ArreisStörmQuest
Well worth the wait! I understand how some sound effects can be a bit much for others, but for me personally, I think it really adds to the ambiance and it's perfect thematically for the show. I'm invested already and can't wait to see where this goes!
Maxim UA
Love the set up for the new season but on the second listen the high pitch tone is SEVERELY painful and loud. I will not be able to listen to this new season if every episode is like this. It's really quite bad
JJ Hunter
FYI, there are some fan-run discords where TMP is already being discussed that might suit what you're looking for - I've been enjoying RQ PLEBS, I know there are other even larger ones that are more directly Magnus-focused.
JJ Hunter
You have so many good things ahead of you in the RQ back archives, I'm excited for you! Definitely rec checking out Jonny and Sasha's multiparter 'That Colossal Wreck' under Neon Inkwell if you want something to tide you over to TMP release - that just had the finale out last week.
Kstein19
Fix the recorder 90hz hum my ears hurt :(((
Cas D
Heyo, first time RQ patreon supporter & also newbie MAG universe fan (yes I know I'm couple years tad late, but you can thank TT for finally pushing me into giving it a listen this last fall)! Even before I finished binging the MAG podcast & my subsequent/ongoing dive into tumblr/A03 fandom, I planned to explore further RQ content bc the writing was so horrifyingly good, the diverse rep A+, & the crew behind it seem rad af via RQ stream VODs & podcast bts. & not only has this premiere got me so hype for more content to feed my new hyperfixation, but it's reiterated my feral need to consume more RQ network creations & recommendations. <3
Spooknett
I wish I was joking when I saw i just woke up from a nightmare about Mr Bonzo
Spooknett
why is no one mentioning the sound of a security camera (?) zooming in when Collin and Sam are talking. and the phone dail when Alice and Sam are in the pub. also in that scene it sounds like whatever is recording is covered by something (in someone's pocket?) is someone listening to them through electronics?? and ofc the end where there's a computer starting up and Collin is the one to switch it off telling it 'he knows'.
Kimberly Crowe
I am SO EXCITeD!!
Fungus Chamber
Amazing episode! Love everything to the core. Only thing I would like is that the CRT ringing is removed. I’d does kinda hurt the ears.
Billy Billiams
My body is ready.
Bruna G
😭
Nightpelt Shadow
Very excited for this!!! However, i do have to second a lot of the other comments about the high-pitched background sound - it is currently a situation in which I have to choose between lowering the volume to being barely audible, or being in active pain to try to listen to it. Definitely understand it being a stylistic choice, but if it does end up being in the final cut, would it be possible to perhaps get a second, more accessible/less painful version? Either way, cannot wait for January and the full release of the show!!
Connor Hines
I get what you’re saying about this being one of those blended/edge cases… Mag 27 always seemed like a Lonely/Spiral team up to me. But I’m more inclined to see it as a Flesh/ Stranger combo, as to me the death and loneliness are less of a focus for the fear.
AbaddonArts
EDIT: FUCK WAIT SHIT. I think that the JMJ in the System (seen at the end of this post and in the trailer(?) is Jon, Martin, and Jonah, the three people who were tied to the eye at the end of TMA, which means I do think the third voice in the machine we haven't heard is Jonah Magnus? Wanted to add this here Original Comment: I'm very eager to see more. There's hundreds of little questions and theories I can think of. The biggest is who on earth the third voice in the computer is. (I assume it has to be Elias? Especially with the fancy name that Alice gave them, it fits the way he speaks?). Beyond that, Sam seems to be the only person to check that one-to-one box when applying to the OIAP, which is why I think we're hearing through the computers now of all times. (Made himself an employee of the Response organization by accident? More closely tied to the Eye/the computer program?) Even the format of these new statements intrigues me. If they're all online records and emails as opposed to active statements, then I expect we'll see more smaller dialogues across each episode rather than a single major statement like TMA. That said, they're all quite eloquent, and I'm curious if it's the people who wrote them 'making a statement' like how in TMA people spoke clearly when giving a story. Or, it could be that the voices on the computer are speaking for them a bit? (I love that Jon and Martin's voices get more emotional and into it as they go, similar to how the Archivist once did)
AbaddonArts
LOADS of theories will be spawned from just that. We know Elias in TMA was not actually himself, but here the Institute burned down, meaning that this could be an alternate Elias or their kid, and never got into stuff? Or a distant relative? Hell, everyone in this premiere is clearly hiding secrets, and it's already getting me very paranoid
AbaddonArts
Stranger/End blend, do you think? We know from TMA that statements and fears aren't really ever just *one* of the categories, and the OIAP has an enormous binder for every possible category atm. In my opinion it's definitely Stranger/End, with an undertone of Lonely/Flesh due to the isolation of the Statement-giver and the Piecemeal aspect of the being they saw.
AbaddonArts
I think it was unintentional, as for me I could choose to ignore it? Like I can depressurize my ears a bit without issue (similar to when going in an airplane) and it got a lot worse. It became inaudible when I did the opposite, so I didn't have issues after the first minute. I assume that older people/some specific people can hear it better or worse than others?
Kate McKiernan
Is it cold without blood, Chester? Do the angles cut you when you try to think?
John Bowler
From my kid: "Having listened to the episode I really like the plot, characters, and other stuff but found the background noise really unpleasant. I thought it was worth noting that I am 15 and can hear it however my parents can't, so it's possible whoever is putting this together also cant hear the background noise as clearly as some of the listeners."
Kidd Boatwright
I love this already! The subtle detail of the John/Martin voices going from text to speech basically to normal va is making me feral in my seat.. Only thing is the CRT noise can get a bit hard to listen to. Like the idea a lot but I agree with some people that it can get uncomfortable. I’m so excited to see this story and fanbase grow I love it so much RAAAHHHHHH💕💕💕
Harlan Bearman
For sure ditch the CRT sound lol, otherwise pretty solid pilot I'm a little shocked that you guys are still voicing the statements and didn't save up for a Jon/Martin reveal. Also is there any plans to bring back the discord, I'd love a place to discuss the episodes that isn't the subreddit.
Kate McKiernan
Thanks for this delightful episode. I may have joined the Patreon near the tail end of the month rather than wait a week to listen to this, and I was NOT disappointed. It seems like I finally listened to TMA at just the right time. I’m looking forward to everything you have in store for us!
Kate McKiernan
Right??
Possumcat
I LOVE THIS SO FAR!
Not An Alien
Hi there, greetings from Brazil. I’m delighted by this astonishing pilot, it totally cured me from my post mag200 depression lol. You guys are amazing. I’d love if you could tell us more about the whole Seer/Billie switch, I’m already making theories that perhaps… it has something to do with the Stranger? Also, there’s a high pitched noise that made it nearly unlistenable, but it got better once I removed my left airbuds.
Eternal Miasma
Can not wait for this series, I backed the RPG as well, cant wait to play that. Jon and all of the other crew have done a perfect job at making this world and deserves all the attention it gets. TMA is my favorite podcast of all time hands down. Congrats guys!
jo.breisinger
I love it, and hearing Sascha giggling in the background during the Q&A is just pure seretonin. I'm so excited when it finally starts it's a total Magnus vibe and that's what I'm here for!
Micah Johnson
Is there an RSS link which we can put into a podcast player?
Trans Rights are Human Rights
agreeing with the others, amazing start to the series and I'm super excited, but the CRT whine is hurting my head and making me a little bit nauseated.
alina
I’m SO excited about this (just finished all of The Magnus Archives). However, would you please consider removing the high pitched noise? It’s making me dizzy/sick :(
Maurissa
:( the high pitched sound is actually through the whole thing?? I'm so sad, it's way too much for me to listen to... unless a version of this is made without it I won't be able to listen to it 😭
Maurissa
Agreed! Thank you rudt quill team for added accessibility!
coopie
GOD I HAVE SO MUCH TO ADD TO MY CORKBOARD I CANT WAIT TO THEORIZE IM ABOUT TO BE SO INSUFFERABLE THANK YOU RUSTY QUILL STUDIOS
eldritchentity
SO HYPED FOR THIS!!!!!! became a Patron because I have 0 impulse control when it comes to tma. Can’t wait to fall in love with these characters before they suffer horrible and tragic fates!! Though, I was among those that noticed the high pitched noise of CRT whining. I was able to ignore it for the most part but I had a headache afterwards. Are you able to change that to a more sensitivity-friendly frequency? I’m still totally gonna listen ofc but I might need to take breaks to protect my hearing
Sarah Caitlin
Anyone else notice that the magnus archive ruins are in the wrong place, Manchester, not London? Interesting
Gareth Green
At first, I thought the statement was just Martin talking about Jon.
Skyeoak
Probably something like that! Broke my heart that the first thing Martin “reads” is “I’m so sorry”
Melanie
I have never been this in love with a podcast like with Magnus. This is fantastic and worth the wait. January can't come soon enough!
Alec
Same! I genuinely paused it so many times and couldn't pay attention to what was being said, I feel like my eardrums are melting
Olly Manning
...how does one get involved in a Rusty Quill orchestra?
Annie Brod
The music is also just stunning.
Annie Brod
Bushard!?!?!?
Fiona Clare
I cant believe how good this is. I cant stop listening
Fernie
I'm sure this won't radically change my entire day to day life
Kitsushi
I believe, it has not enough meat in it. So I think it is the Stranger. As he seems changed, like someone else is wearing his skin, to put it in a picture. In Conclusion, I am sure it is the Stranger.
Vanessa
Unfortunately doesn't work with my galaxy buds
Connor Hines
Is the first one The Flesh or The Stranger?
Desiree Chippett
I’m already in love with this and I can’t wait for more! Also, having the text on screen was fantastic, thank you so much for that!
Laura Karlstedt
I’m so insanely excited for January now! I love the new concept for statements, I want to know everything about the magnus institute ruins and I love all the new characters!
Emmy Brown
Is the high pitched noise on purpose?
Emmy Brown
i could hear it! it’s making the listening unbearable! i can’t tell if it was an accident or not?
Rebecca F
I wanted to add that I really appreciated having the text on screen while we're listening to this. I'd love to have name tags as well.
Mar
SOO excited to listen to more! Already listening to this a second time! Why can't it be January 2024 already!
Kitsushi
I just had been able to listen to it. I am hooked. So much happened and I am thrilled to see what is coming in January. I know I will listen to this on repeat just as much as I listen to the Archives on repeat. It is going to be amazing!
MarlaBothBothIsGood
Random extra comment on my first re-listen: almost sure RedCanary real name is Michael (sorry had to do the "joke")
LainyJP
So great!!! Really excited about this, can't wait until January ❤️😬
Wesley
I'm guessing the reason the high pitched noise is in there is because you stop being able to hear it at age 30 and almost no one that listened to it could hear it?
emmie
ABSOLUTELY LOVED IT!!! huge fan of the more digitally themed direction that they're taking compared to the analog feel of tma. i loved the forum part specifically + cannot wait for episode two!! 🫶🫶
Adriana Gallmeier
Oh this is going to be lovely in the most horrible way- which is the best. My ears are struggling to adjust to the high pitch ringing computer noises but I don't hate it and I know I won't even notice by the end of the season but aghhhhh excitement
Doodles
I sent a message to RQ w/ the things i noticed and they say theyll check w/ production team and try update soon
Reese
i assume this is what they meant by "strong edits" in the q&a. not everything sticks to scripts during recording. hopefully we get an updated script.
Xabinet the Cabinet
Here we go again!! Can't wait to listen to Protocol a million times over! So excited for the rest of the series!
James White
I’m absolutely swooning.
Alyx✨
I had the same issue but u can listen on headphones and dial it down till the noise just disappears. That helped for me
Kitsushi
Instantly hooked! Can't wait to hear the rest! ✨💙
James Rule
Love it. As a former IT support worker: nothing is scarier than an old, custom built computer system.
Doodles
I'm going to continue putting these here because i keep finding them and idk if this is normal or not, but in page 40 Alice says Sam is looking a little "pale" while in the episode it says "peaky" I am not sure if these 'mistakes' are insignificant or if i'm overreacting or something, but in case they are genuine mistakes and the two versions of this are meant to say the same, i'm gonna put here all the ones i find? I'm sorry if this is just an inconvinience
Doodles
There's more- i'm currently on the top of the page 39, and while the transcript reads "By FlowersUnderground on Friday April 22 2022 4:07pm" the audio of the episode says "by FlowersUnderground on Saturday April 30 2022 12:07pm"
aaaah! -stro
they trapped my blorbos in my puter,,,, :(
Doodles
Refers to "Neil" as "Norris" the first two times on the trasncript, then calls them "Neil" the third time the character is mentined. I've only looked at page 18 so far, but its a big weird- is this a typo or- something else?
Doodles
I am confused on one thing On the audio + info here it referes to the character Alex voices as "neil", but i dowloaded the transcript yesterday and that character is reffered to as Norris. Is that some sort of typo somewhere? The voice is refered to as Norris more than once, which is confusing, because again, in the episode itself they are called Neil
MashedPotato
I’m SO EXCITED!!! Nothing else has the same vibes as the Magnus archives but this is PERFECT and will finally fill the void in my life since Magnus finished
Calliope Lagunas
Very curious to see what's up with "Neil and Chester". Since they and the computer system seem to be taking the place of the tapes, I can only wonder as to whether or not they are trapping the office in a web of sorts. Though I doubt Jon and Martin are now trapped in a computer, I really hope we get to see them again, and that just maybe they get a second chance.
Calliope Lagunas
And speaking of the office, I'm surprised how quickly I took to the characters. We meet a lot of folks this episode compared to Archives' steady trickle, and yet I can already attach each voice to a name and vibe. Alice is immediately my favorite, as I can relate to being a sarcastic trans girl with no love for their (probably evil) monotonous job. I like Sam, Colin has my sympathy, Gwen is someone to keep an eye on, especially considering her surname, and one can only hope that Lena is a regular bad boss and not a big bad boss.
Calliope Lagunas
Listened twice now and UGH, I am already in love again. The new music is just, so genuinely unnerving. The Archives' theme felt like something beckoning, trying to hook you in to something that is *wrong*. Protocol's theme feels far more like a dread warning, a blunt statement that we now know just how bad the Magnus Institute is, and we can only hope the civil service workers of the OIAR will make it out okay.
NOVA
if Colin gets killed off im jumping off a building
Jordan Barrick
I'm so glad I get to listen to more of your work, I can already tell that I will not be normal about this podcast either. Thank you so much for all the work you all do.
Valerie Kaplan
Actual episode: Ooooh, spoopy. Documentary: AUGH NOT MR. BONZO
Kath
it's going to be fun going over it several times before Ep 2 comes out!
Peach
AMAZINGGGG i'm SO EXCITED for the rest of the series
Heather MacKenzie
Dear God, this was so good! I had to listen to it twice and have already started my new "red string" book for this series! I can't wait until the final episode drops in Jan! Great job to everyone!!
Gareth Green
Is THAT why Martin hid from Jane Prentiss in his apartment for months?
Kin
This is absolutely FANTASTIC! It feels so familiar yet fresh and intriguing! The new theme with the older computers and operating systems is so cool! The sounds of it brings back memories haha. Some of the sound effects are a bit uncomfortable to listen to, but I kinda like it? It's disturbing but in a weird way I enjoy it. The music is insanely good, I can't imagine how stunning the big piece will sound! The cast did such an amazing work, very excited to hear more of them! Also thank you for the Q&A, it's heartwarming and so so awesome to see this universe once again coming back to life. P.S. as an illustrator and character designer I just wanna say I FEEL YOU APRIL blender is a piece of cake until you start to render, then it takes ages and crashes everything. Beautiful work on the Mr.Bonzo design!!
BuriedInTheArchives
I'm so happy with this. Can't wait for the next episode!!!

But do they know each other are there? They could both be stuck their unaware of eachothers existence

Ahhhh thank you! No wonder he didn't want anyone to have context, it sounds WAY cooler without it!

IIRC there was asbestos in the flat he rented - this is also how he became homeless as the flat wasn't fit to live in.
Anthony
the flat he lived in at the time had an asbestos problem, and it became untenable literally right as they were releasing the first episode of magnus. if you hunt back far enough into q&as and other patreon content i’m sure you’ll find a fuller version of the story 😁
Vanessa
The high pitched background noise is unbearable ☹️☹️☹️ I don't think I'll even be able to make it to the end of the episode
FyreFlye23
Really quick - can someone explain how Alexander was poisoned? Because Jonny is right, my mind went to someone slipping him something 🤣

the documentary already looks so gorgeous and everyone involved seems SO JAZZED ITS REALLY GOOD ENERGY!!!!

This was SO GOOD, im so excited already!! the voices! the acting!! alex finally getting to be a computer!! and the score THE SCORE. the music is so good i cannot WAIT For more!!! what a wonderful premiere!!
transvamp
I AM SO IMMEDIATELY 1 MILLION PERCENT HERE FOR THIS, but also the high pitched monitor sound from when the recording is of Sam at his computer or from that computer in general is KILLING ME

Chyou Xian
Very excited for the full podcast! Already like Alice (she/they of the day??) and Sam. Assuming Tim was the one who did the graffiti?? lmaooo
Space Modulator
Ok, the music is amazing. Like James Horner and Hans Zimmer had a creepy-ass baby. I love it. And I'm so looking forward to hearing Sam fall down the rabbit hole. Neil and Chester? Mwah! The whole cast? Tasty A.F. (As for the CRT whine and the thunk-thunk of early physical hard drives and floppies: I grew up on those noises, so they don't bother me. But in real life those sounds sort of blend into the background, so if they have to be toned down for the sake of accessibility, it would also increase the realism. Just my 2 cents.)
Helena McCoy
I cherish everyone who is only just now finding out about Bonzo. The reaction to him in the Statement Remains ARG server was so good and I'm glad you all get to go through it too. Absolutely jaw dropping stuff - I remember loads of us were sure we were being trolled and the ARG was being hijacked because *surely the crap not*, right? Like, surely RQ did not create this creature? We were all delirious from a clue drought and it hit like a freight train. The concept of RQ staff having to sit there and design him. His weird website that blends wholesome and surreal. I half thought I was hallucinating. It was wild.
Rainy
This is amazing!! I love Colin so much and the whole thing was just so interesting (also BOUCHARD?? HUH?)
Gareth Green
Ghosts in the machine…

Am I to understand that Jon and Martin’s souls are trapped in the computer system? Also, Gwendolyn BOUCHARD?

Wada Wanader
Mmmm I dont knoe If I enjoyed the intro and outro song? Idk, it feels kind of out of place ig? Its like too grandiose for something more hidden like the Archives one, But maybe its just one of those things that Ill end upnloving after 2 episodes, it has happened before jsjsjs, apart from that EVERYTHING IS SO INCREDIBLEY GOOD HOLY CRAP I LOVE THEM ALL SO MUCH ALREADY THEY ARE SO COOL!!!
Aaron
I loved that music in the intro and outro of the episodes definitely has that creepy yet dramatic tone that sounds like it's introducing the big bad, the villain, the great monster lurking behind the scenes which adds a sense of danger and caution going into the episode
Katherine McDermott (She-They)
I'm going to jump on the bandwagon of the high-pitched TV Static/hum being nearly unbearable.
Liz Patt
I HAD THE SAME REACTION!

WAAAAAAAA ITS SO LOVELY I AM GOING INSANE IM GOING INSANE BUT ALSO THE CRT NOISE IS KILLING ME TO DEATH TWT

Absinthe
it sounds like watching a VHS, just a slight staticy high pitched noise. it might help if u use headphones
Jules Toy
yaaaay it's here! and so good! I would second what people are saying about the high noise, though - I'm fine but my partner with sensory problems has found it basically unlistenable :(
Audrey R
That was absolutely amazing. I know this show is going to break my heart again and I can't wait.
MarsAmongTheStars
As much as I enjoyed this episode I don't think I'll be able to continue the series if the high pitch computer whine continues to be in episodes. It makes it very hard to listen to, and I personally would say is a little painful.

Thank you for making sure I will be busy with keeping my mouth shut until January, because oh lord, I Am Deeply Unchill About This In The Best Way.

First French Canadian here ! I’ve learned my lesson from TMA, I now have a book ready to put down everything ✅ This was just insane ! I have so many theories and thought about everything that is going on. I feel like I will be listening to this episode a couple of times so my brain can deduce the maximum information. Also I was wondering if fanart where allowed if they are spoiler free ?

Hate to complain cause I'm beyond excited but the high pitch whine in the background makes this borderline unbearable to listen. Hope this isn't a stylistic choice and it'll be stopped later on.
Eleyeus
There's so many new characters thrown at my face, but I'm going to try and learn them quickly LOL. The transcript helps so much, and so does Alice's little "family" rant. Its a nice exposition, so far.

First!... In the States, anyway 😅 ... Just finished and sweet Googly Moogly I'm excited for this series! 😍 My former Library and SysAd selves feel (too) seen. The cataloging banter had me rolling in particular (strong empathy from AACR coding). Great character and dynamic introductions.
