That may not be your cup of tea, but I thought use of that sound effect was pretty innovative. The scene in which it appears wasn't supposed to be enjoyable. It was supposed to be discomforting, and that sound conveyed something in ways that words alone couldn't. Good on the creators for experimenting.
MarlaBothBothIsGood
Finally a patreon, finally listening to this!!! Had so much fun *authomatically goes to ep2 at Risk of tomorrow's Lynch getting overcooked*
Lauren
Oh no, I can not with the gulping and slurping. Who wants to listen to that 🙁
Spiderweb
Oh Beth Eyre! From Wooden Overcoats! Neat!
Charida Belle
Catching up late but I echo the comments saying that this is fantastic!!The opening theme is a bop too. Will have to rewire my expectations for the swearing 😏 and the gulping makes me twitch 😫
Cyndi S
This is great. I love it.
Pontus Lindhe Ohlsson
I am really looking forward to the next episode! And damn, that opening score is amazing!
Aydenburd
RQ: we've been saving all the Mouth Sounds™ here in this jar for years, and now we've finally found where to put them >:3c
Marchien Leopold
This is very promising, I am very curious where all this is going. One thing though: please do not make the eating and drinking sounds so loud! Ugh.
Ciara mc Cabe
This was absolutely brilliant. Can't wait for the next episode.
Anna Wozniak
This is a beautiful mix of high quality production and enticing writing! Can’t wait to see where this goes!
Jess Nicolazzo
Wow! Loved this! can’t wait for the next one!!!!! Well done everyone!
Sinclair Cross
TMA: "OKAY, I'll let you have a COUPLE of bad words, all right?" Inexplicables: "F#CK F#CK, F#CKITY F#CK SH!T"
Taz Nicolas
I wasn’t planning on listening to this, it’s not really my speed. However, I was pleasantly surprised and really impressed by the production. The soundscaping is fantastic and really adds good quality context. I look forward to listening the the next part as you have now sucked me into another Rusty Quill production. You really are pros at it.
Olli
Oh snap k
Olli
Wait r these str8 people
Olli
Ho-lee-smokes this is incredible
Emma Crawford
Oh! This reminds me of the Dr. Greta Helsing novels <3 I can't wait to see where it goes!!
thenonsensearchives
You had me at the incredible opening music. I'm already invested in these characters and cannot wait to see where this story goes!
Possumcat
liked it, when is the next one?
Aston Bentley
I am probably the minority here, but I really struggled with the non-stop swearing. I found it really jarring and detracted my enjoyment of it. I get that its part of Meredith's character, but still...
Lindsay
Is there an RSS feed?
R. Kim
Awesome! Looking forward to the next episode!
Jamie Adams
I love it so much
Matea Todorovski
So I was really looking forward for this one, not really knowing what to expect. And of course, I was served an amazing experience top to bottom!
Meredith Quintana
Don't see my first name much used in media so this was a pleasant surprise to have a main character with the name Meredith (and honestly took it as a sign that me becoming a patron today was the right decision lol)! Weird to hear it so much outside of my family and friends! Realllly loved the music and the soundscaping for this, looking forward to seeing where this goes!
Reanna _
This is fantastic! I was looking so forward to this and it did not let down! Love the characters and love the story. Can't wait to hear more
ThirdFromTheLeft
yeah the sound in this ep totally blew me away! I felt like I was THERE. it was so well done. one of the best parts.
Gwen Jeronimo
Excited for more of this!
bone marrow drinker
Absolutely brilliant, rusty quill does it again
Marie
I. Love. This. I want to know more about this town and these characters. And the music was great. I can't wait to see how this goes.
Rowan MacBean
Very into this concept. Looking forward to seeing where you go with it!
Hailey Hurd
The soundscaping in this episode is so immersive. So many details and layers! The sound editors really killed it!!!
Cat Thompson
I bet all those f-bombs were cathartic after all these years of self censorship.
Arista Pawlowski
Ahhhh I'm loving it! I can't wait for next ep
Anthony
Ohhh this was GORGEOUS... All of those cameos just made my DAY... though I’m not sure I can quite suspend my disbelief enough to see Alex as an angry shouting boss xD I’ve been excited about this for ages but I really wasn’t ready!!! It’s so pretty and polished!! Listening to this with all of its beautiful musical sequences and everything just after relistening to early RQG episodes is making me so emotional... you guys at RQ are going to do SUCH great things<3
Aine Morgan
The sound effects in this episode are viciously anti-misophonia sufferers :( please be aware that sounds like pouring liquid, swallowing or chewing can be pretty uncomfortable and maybe don't have them at a volume that suggests the microphone is in their actual mouth :p
Sara Norris
Ooh, this was fun. Can’t wait to hear what happens next!
Northofantastic
This is very interesting so far. I'm excited to see how things unfold! Lovely to hear familiar and new voices!
Emma Legowski
This was brilliant!! Very excited to see where this goes!
MarisaTheGhost
‘Cressida’ does sound like a posh sandwich.
Bresby
I loved this so much. Meredith and Cressida are my faves so far.
Erin R
“Emotional breakdown” Oh so a normal Friday night for me.
Hearth of the Fae
So did you save up all the swear words that aren't allowed in Magnus and Gaming and put them all here instead? 😆 Great show, awesome music, I can't wait for more!!!
PratchettWitch
I can already tell I'm going to love this!
Marie-Anne Dupont
So eager to hear more!!! What an intriguing start! (Really love what you did with all the music)
Anna Cristina
Love it.
sAZAndorable
Absolutely love it -- the music, the writing, the characters, the acting, the plot...
Sidney
Awesome first episode! So excited to see where the series goes next!
Gilligan Mungus
All I could hear was Alex when Meredith says she’s a delight. Lol. This was wonderful!
The Magnus Archives Was A Comedy
Oh I'm absolutely obsessed, this was amazing!! Even more excited for the next few episodes!!

Really, really loving this! The theme song is excellent and I love the music between scenes. This place already feels so real to me. It was such a treat to hear some familiar voices as well.
Laure Gagnon-Tremblay
Oh this is really good! The voice actors are great!
Killian
Very excited to see where this story goes. And I was very happy to hear familiar voices in there.

I am deeply fond of Meredith already. And Fay is so good as Cressida!!

This is awesome. I'm so excited! Can't wait for episode 2!

SpaceFeather
That opening song was incredible!! And it was so nice to hear old voices mixed in with the new. This is going to be great!
ThirdFromTheLeft
THAT WAS BRILLIANT!!! Can't wait for more. Love the blend of seriousness and offbeat comedy. And I love how real and fully realized and deeply human the characters feel (even if they might not be literally human). Cannot wait to learn more about the world and characters.
pnwbabayaga
Meredith!! 💜
Elizabeth Ryan
I love this ahh!! fills the TMA void hearing all these familiar voices. so excited 💜
Sohastalitha
Also I did NOT recognise Fay Roberts as Cressida!
Sohastalitha
Oooh opening song is giving me tinglies :D
Gilligan Mungus
So freaking excited!!! 😁
Ursula Regazzoli
