Hey! You've listened to a show i'm thinking of starting, would you mind telling me your general opinion on modes of thought in anterran literature? I'm kind of iffy on if i want to start it or not.
Modes of Thought in Anterran Literature:
I like the historical worldbuilding and it's probably been beneficial to the way I approach creative projects. The creators do sometimes forget or don't fully consider implications of a couple smaller worldbuilding details, but I suspect the less pedantic listener may not notice (or particularly give a shit if they do).
The modern political intrigue aspect of it doesn't really land for me personally (it's not particularly inspired or compelling and ends up feeling pretty airport paperback), but the framing device as university lectures with general weird shit going on does admittedly leave me wanting more podcasts willing consider using the same format.
The audio quality and sound work are decent and do what I'd expect them to for the sake of immersion pretty well. The professor-lecturer feels very professory. He's got all the required mediocre jokes, sucks at technology, and is barely concealing his failed marriage to his students. It's like I'm back in undergrad, sitting in on a lecture for someone else's degree.
If you don't like the first episode or three, you probably won't like the rest of the podcast. If you do like them, you'll probably enjoy the rest of it. Easy litmus test. I'd say it's worth trying, but I don't expect everyone to enjoy it.
That's a general opinion overview. If you're iffy on specific things, feel free to more specific about the things and I can elaborate on them.
