"oi! dickhead!" ahaha also, I love Rosie.
ledgem
2021-03-08 10:50:11 +0000 UTCI'd been shipping John and Martin since they started interacting at the beginning. So nice hearing them with the "I love you." And I'm jealous of how you've developed their characters. Martin's confidence has really blossomed and John's slightly less of a dick. Hope this is taken as a compliment. I'm learning a lot as a writer about plot and description from listening to this, so thanks.

2021-02-03 17:25:15 +0000 UTCAn amazing episode!!
deeeeeeeeee
2021-01-31 18:57:58 +0000 UTCYes! That was the first thing I thought was wow! Spot on!

Sinclair Cross
2021-01-30 05:31:06 +0000 UTCI didn't know I needed Martin to say that. Loved it.
Margot R.
2021-01-29 20:17:23 +0000 UTCWHAT AN EPISODE!!!!! WHOA! I haven't felt this entranced by an episode in a while. Absolutely compelling and horrifying. I can't wait for the next episode.
Mantha Grant
2021-01-28 21:51:14 +0000 UTC"I don't like them." That, Martin, was the understatement of the year. I do feel sorry for Rosie though.
Heather MacKenzie
2021-01-28 17:56:49 +0000 UTCEesh that sfx bug noise was not a good time. I do enjoy the pupil of the eye wordplay though
Anika
2021-01-28 14:10:34 +0000 UTCWait, what? This is not where I expected them to be at this point.
Emmett Maguire
2021-01-28 12:45:04 +0000 UTCfinally the Rosie content we deserve!!!!
Carolina Martins
2021-01-28 11:18:28 +0000 UTCWOOOOOAAAAAHHHHH 😱😱😱 So gooood!!!!! Incredible writing and sound design too everyone! Seriously outdone yourselves 💕

Caledon Corvinelli
2021-01-28 04:36:23 +0000 UTC“Yeah... excuse us” I love Martin so much
Bruna G
2021-01-28 04:19:35 +0000 UTCI'm back to listen to this again for the 40th time... Jonny and co, you have OUTDONE YOURSELVES, the pacing and the little details sprinkled in, things fans have been wondering as well as little bits of characterization... BEAUTIFUL GORGEOUS LOVELY SUSPENSE AT IT'S FINEST........... I have full faith that whatever the end has in store for us it will feel at least twice as gutwrenching as the end of this episode, and I am So Afraid :')
Anthony
2021-01-28 04:12:23 +0000 UTCedit: I thought he was reciting the Ritual speech at the end but nope, PDF proved me wrong. Still! More doom poetry! And I'm still out here screaming...
Simplicity Fairbolt
2021-01-28 02:15:18 +0000 UTCI don't know what emotion this epsidoe elicited but it sure was alot
That Podcast Queer
2021-01-28 02:14:51 +0000 UTCTHE SOUND DESIGN IN THIS EPISODE WAS FUCKING SUPERB!!
Weenie hut jr
2021-01-28 01:57:33 +0000 UTCOI DICKHEAD!
Elijah Harper
2021-01-28 00:25:43 +0000 UTCI don't know what else to say except FUCK! AMAZING!
Zorya Dolgushkin
2021-01-28 00:08:50 +0000 UTCJust so delighted to see Rosie, give her a surname, and hear her story - and then so overwhelmed by the sound design for Elias/Jonah! So good. SO AFRAID.
Laura Bailey
2021-01-27 23:40:04 +0000 UTCThe fact that they're already meeting with Elias/Jonah (but he'll always be Elias to me) but they still have 7 episodes to go makes me extremely nervous.
Marie
2021-01-27 23:35:48 +0000 UTCThis was just wow.... and every assistant out there can understand Rosie - I certainly do.
Mimi Fischer
2021-01-27 23:04:52 +0000 UTCweird q: since american podcast hosting things hate profanity is 'oi dickhead' going to stay in the spotify/apple release or is that a ✨patreon exclusive✨? follow up question: how much is alex sweating in fear that this episode will be nerfed for profanity?
Mordecai Sennett
2021-01-27 23:01:34 +0000 UTCI can't even process right now but can I just scream SOUND DESIGN I feel like every episode with incredible sound effects you all level up?! Like this episode was extraordinary!
Reanna _
2021-01-27 22:47:52 +0000 UTCMartin's "Oi! Dickhead!" is a light in a dark world. This episode was absolutely stellar!
Kate Sparrow
2021-01-27 22:31:51 +0000 UTCI see that Bojack reference and it made me really happy.
James White
2021-01-27 22:30:02 +0000 UTCOhhh. There's a lot in this episode.

2021-01-27 20:27:19 +0000 UTCthis is one of my new favourite episodes
Alex Potts
2021-01-27 20:06:14 +0000 UTCI had been really hoping that Rosie would be receptionist at the Panopticon, and this was even better than I'd imagined. We got a whole Rosie statement setting the show into a different perspective. Loved it!
Anna S
2021-01-27 19:54:45 +0000 UTCRight???? I was thinking the exact same.... Too many episodes for them to be there already.... What is gonna happen 😬😬
Mars
2021-01-27 18:52:51 +0000 UTC✨ O i d i c k h e a d ✨
Mars
2021-01-27 18:51:52 +0000 UTCI can’t believe the theories were kinda right
Nicole
2021-01-27 18:50:59 +0000 UTCI thought I had been paying attention but Rosie seems like a new character to me. Time to go back and relisten to some episodes. I love how strong these final episodes have been.
Paul S
2021-01-27 18:40:56 +0000 UTCYou guys really popped off with this episode. DAMN
Mckayla Bevan
2021-01-27 18:33:51 +0000 UTCPoke That Eye. Poke That Eye. Poke That Eye.
Paper Planet
2021-01-27 18:33:08 +0000 UTCIncredible episode, just an absolute zinger. I am left with so much excitement and dread for next week. Also, the Peter Lukas impression was unbelievably good - absolutely nailed Alasdair's signature tone.
Maddie B
2021-01-27 18:22:26 +0000 UTCWell... we got our Rosie appearance and of course her whole situation is depressing.
James White
2021-01-27 18:16:28 +0000 UTCWonderful to get another view of some of our major events in Maguns through Rosie. Also nice to see that Elias made sure to terrorize absolutely everyone within the institute, lucky Rosie...
Rebecca Dupont
2021-01-27 18:15:59 +0000 UTCThis managed to portray almost exactly how I felt when I was a receptionist, and honestly how I've been feeling at work since COVID. This was incredible writing and an episode that touched a fear of mine I didn't even know I had. I can't wait to see what happens next.
Jamie Hilts
2021-01-27 18:11:44 +0000 UTCHoo boy.

2021-01-27 17:28:32 +0000 UTComg i've missed jonah so much
james
2021-01-27 17:27:21 +0000 UTCThis totally felt like a be careful what you wish for moment for Jolias at the end of the episode. Rosie knows so much - assistants always do. We’re often taken for granted but the things we learn and KNOW.
Gilligan Mungus
2021-01-27 17:23:14 +0000 UTCoh also SASHAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!!! EVERY DAY I MISS HER MORE AND MORE. !!! BRING HER BACK!!! AT LEAST LET US KNOW HOW SHE'S DOING ON HER KAYAKING TRIP WITH TIM!!!

2021-01-27 17:20:38 +0000 UTCMartin, babe, you dropped this 👑
Sam Symonds
2021-01-27 17:18:34 +0000 UTCMartin: *looks at all seeing omnipotent being* Martin: “oi dickhead” Season 5 Martin isn’t messing around 😂
Rebecca Godden
2021-01-27 17:17:33 +0000 UTCI can finally check off "canon Rosie appearance" from my MAG finale bingo card. This was an amazing episode!!! The sound design at the end was amazing, I've gotta read the transcript for this one
Eben Taylor
2021-01-27 17:13:50 +0000 UTCOoh that chanting is so cool!! I would really like a mix of it. ~Lofi eldridge chanting beats to sleep/relax to™~
Elfie Oakwood
2021-01-27 17:11:25 +0000 UTCThe sound scaping on this episode was really good, i esp liked the parts where it was jumping around from pre-apocalypse and during the apocalypse during rosies statement. It was so jarring and really effective in setting the tone
Owleics
2021-01-27 17:08:15 +0000 UTCMy little group chat was REALLY rooting for rosie to be in s5 and well!!!!! we feast thank you
Mason Jar
2021-01-27 16:58:47 +0000 UTCThe SOUNDS of the apocalypse rising around Rosie! GOSH
Lurkin
2021-01-27 16:55:15 +0000 UTCOh no
Jack Bird
2021-01-27 16:52:09 +0000 UTCI can’t believe that not only have we finally got a statement for Rosie (aka the love of my life) but she’s SUFFERING?!?!? Jonah I’ll never forgive you for this
Jess Fisher
2021-01-27 16:50:50 +0000 UTCGoddd this is so good I'm losing my mind
Lurkin
2021-01-27 16:49:50 +0000 UTCS5 Martin just don't give a shit anymore and I love him more every episode <3

2021-01-27 16:49:19 +0000 UTCseeing the episode title on monday thinking like...rosie? couldnt be, could it? nahh, probably not, would be cool though. and then getting to this and ITS *HER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!* A WHOLE STATEMENT, TOO!!! AAHHHH

Haden Cross
2021-01-27 16:41:34 +0000 UTCNow that I have my Rosie episode, I’m going to be selfish and up my demand to a full-blown Rosie spin-off. Just make sure it starts airing the week after Magnus ends so I don’t have to wait too long. Thanks 😘
Devin Goodman
2021-01-27 16:40:09 +0000 UTCAbsolutely loved this and quote of the episode “oi Dickhead”, go Martin and still 8 more episodes to shred my nerves, oh my oh my 🥱

james evelyn
2021-01-27 16:29:53 +0000 UTCOH MY GODDDD! The end bit tho. Those sound effects were INCREDIBLE. Love the jumble of statement words and the rushing sounds. It really gives you the sense of the eye of an eldritch storm. And !! So great to have jonah back. He's so fun to hate and so deeply entertaining.
