10/10
A brilliant story with amazing actors!
29 May 2022
I've discovered Radioman through Nikolaj Coster-Waldau and Joe Derrick, from the production company Ill Kippers. When I heard about what the story was about I was instantly intrigued and couldn't wait to listen to it. And I can say: Radioman totally exceeded my expectations! Nikolaj Coster-Waldau is my favourite actor so I was excited to see him in another form of acting: voice acting. And I can say he is just as brilliant in that as well! He really brought the character of Chas to life and he was just perfect as the narrator of the story. But honestly all the actors were amazing. Even though you only hear their voices, every character really had its own personality and made me care for them. I loved the relationship between Chas and his daughter, I was scared for all the women to be the next victim and I couldn't wait to hear how the stories of the characters would continue. This is all thanks to the amazing cast of Radioman.

The story is nothing short of incredible. It's mysterious, intriguing, it keeps you constantly guessing about who might be the killer and it keeps you on the edge of your seat. Radioman isn't just giving everything away from the start. Sometimes you meet characters or listen to a scene you can't really place, but later on you get more pieces of the puzzle and suddenly the scenes you've listened to earlier start to make a lot of sense. This keeps you constantly on edge. Radioman expects some sort of activity from its listeners, which truly draws you into the story. It's almost as if you are there next to Chas trying to unravel all the secrets. You're immerged into the story and are part of Tanford and its community for 10 episodes.

Last but not least I have to say that the sound design of Radioman is phenomenal. You can exactly picture where the characters are - inside, outdoors, in a bar or at home - so you can almost see the scenes as a movie in your head. Even the murder scenes are done so well. It's almost visceral. You can totally envision what the killer is doing.

And then we have the music. The music is just truly amazing. It has this kind of mysterious vibe that makes you want to keep listening to the story. It draws you in and it adds another layer to the story.

If you love a good crime story with amazing characters, a fantastic story and incredible sound design then you will absolutely love Radioman. This podcast is nothing short of phenomenal and I can't wait to relisten to this story.
