blast off

• How is it this ran SIX episodes and no one said "ZOMBIE" ???.  Not even once?
• Community Center?  Farm House?  Umm, what about the local garrison? Hello? _{(guns, armored vehicles, medical supplies, emergency rations,  radios, HAND GRENADES!!! etc)}
• In a zombie situation located near the coast, why in the name of GOD would you remain inland???  Zombies don't swim.
• No sex? Guy & Gal together, stressed to the max, afraid to sleep alone and there's no sex?  Gimme a break.

worst podcast novel ever.
If you can make it to the final episode, which I somehow did because I had a long ass trip, you will want to shoot yourself in the face with how it wraps up.

I drive a LOT.  I made it through the first episode and was really frustrated.  For one, the audio quality was crap.  Also, I understand the basic lay out of a zombie story.  I bet most people who would listen to this do, as well.  There was nothing about the first episode that made me want to listen to another.

Crap for me, then.  I have hearing issues and couldn't understand a lot of the performance.  If you say it wasn't crap, I'll take your word for it.  I'll try to remember this in the future and point out exactly what my issues are.  I really don't want to unfairly slam someone's work.

On a related note:

Kiddies, don't listen to extremely loud rock music or fire rockets without adequate ear protection.   ???

In general I've been disappointed by every Darker Projects I've listened to.  I just totally ignore them now.

I found many of the voices inaudible in the car as well.  Autumn was the last shot I gave Darker Projects
