Dark Air with Terry Carnation

It's mixes a nice mystery along with comedy. This is a perfect mix. Terry carnation is the best. But, this wouldn't have happened without radio rental. So we shall acknowledge that show as well. They are both great and they are both must watches.

A funny and well-written show (the Alex Jones parody is particularly good), but the immersion is constantly ruined by the adverts. A real pity and something that the Ron Burgundy podcast did much better...

As a fan of coast to coast and someone who gets a gets a chuckle from the train wreck that is Alex Jones, I really wanted to like this show. Unfortunately the jokes come across as someone who hasn't really listened to either of its main sources of inspiration. This is more like someone who thinks they know what would have gone on in those radio shows and trying to make fun of them. I wouldn't say any of it is mean spirited, just not very clever.

It's basically mild cringe humor peppered with jokes that are predictable or not very clever. Maybe it will find it's feet, but I doubt it. I just didn't feel much chemistry in the show.

Crossing the boundary between show and audience flawlessly. Reminiscent of The Office format, but more cleverly produced and in the realm of podcasts. And I'm not just saying that because of Rainn Wilson. His acting is what makes the show land how it's intended. He is a genius performer that really makes the script come alive. Idk who wrote the script (sorry writers) but their sense of humor is great. Loving this.

Just adore this podcast. Really hope there's a second season as we approach the end of the first.

I wanted to also offer a different opinion re the ads. Normally I hate them but I find them absolutely fine on this occasion. Many are woven into the narrative as obvious product placements but work nicely within the overall silliness and general anarchy of the show.
