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.

Katelyn

I'm with Lauren on this one misophonia is a bitch. This was hard to listen to. Glad others can vibe with it but it just made me want to crawl out of my skin!

Sohastalitha

Oooh opening song is giving me tinglies :D

Sohastalitha

Also I did NOT recognise Fay Roberts as Cressida!

Elizabeth Ryan

I love this ahh!! fills the TMA void hearing all these familiar voices. so excited 💜

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.

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!

Freya

I'm already so excited for the next episode!!!

Anna Zornoza

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

Fushi

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

Killian

Very excited to see where this story goes. And I was very happy to hear familiar voices in there.

Cammieo

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.

EmZeez

I thought that barman sounded familiar! Super excited for next episode.

Hila SketchCat Shats

it's only ep 1 but im already sad it's only 6 episodes. very excited for the rest!!

Vex Harper

Such a cool premise!!! Can't wait for the next episode. The vibes are immaculate.

Gilligan Mungus

All I could hear was Alex when Meredith says she’s a delight. Lol. This was wonderful!

Sidney

Awesome first episode! So excited to see where the series goes next!

sAZAndorable

Absolutely love it -- the music, the writing, the characters, the acting, the plot...

Marie-Anne Dupont

So eager to hear more!!! What an intriguing start! (Really love what you did with all the music)

PratchettWitch

I can already tell I'm going to love this!

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!!!

Erin R

“Emotional breakdown” Oh so a normal Friday night for me.

Bresby

I loved this so much. Meredith and Cressida are my faves so far.

MarisaTheGhost

‘Cressida’ does sound like a posh sandwich.

Emma Legowski

This was brilliant!! Very excited to see where this goes!

Northofantastic

This is very interesting so far. I'm excited to see how things unfold! Lovely to hear familiar and new voices!

Sara Norris

Ooh, this was fun. Can’t wait to hear what happens next!

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

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

Arista Pawlowski

Ahhhh I'm loving it! I can't wait for next ep

Cat Thompson

I bet all those f-bombs were cathartic after all these years of self censorship.

Hailey Hurd

The soundscaping in this episode is so immersive. So many details and layers! The sound editors really killed it!!!

Rowan MacBean

Very into this concept. Looking forward to seeing where you go with it!

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.

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.

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

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!

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!

R. Kim

Awesome! Looking forward to the next episode!

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...

Possumcat

liked it, when is the next one?

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!

Emma Crawford

Oh! This reminds me of the Dr. Greta Helsing novels <3 I can't wait to see where it goes!!

Olli

Ho-lee-smokes this is incredible

Olli

Wait r these str8 people

Olli

Oh snap k

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.

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"

Jess Nicolazzo

Wow! Loved this! can’t wait for the next one!!!!! Well done everyone!

Anna Wozniak

This is a beautiful mix of high quality production and enticing writing! Can’t wait to see where this goes!

Ciara mc Cabe

This was absolutely brilliant. Can't wait for the next episode.

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.

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

Pontus Lindhe Ohlsson

I am really looking forward to the next episode! And damn, that opening score is amazing!

Cyndi S

This is great. I love it.

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 😫

Spiderweb

Oh Beth Eyre! From Wooden Overcoats! Neat!

Lauren

Oh no, I can not with the gulping and slurping. Who wants to listen to that 🙁

MarlaBothBothIsGood

Finally a patreon, finally listening to this!!! Had so much fun *authomatically goes to ep2 at Risk of tomorrow's Lynch getting overcooked*
