Aftershock is a twisty, turny mystery podcast, in which more details coming to light in every episode. The characters and their motivations are questionable from the start, and you’re never sure who to trust. There’s both foreshadowing and flashbacks, and I’ve reacted out loud (laughter, gasping, and “no f-ing way!” alike) on most episodes.
First Impressions
The most important thing to know about Aftershock is that the production quality is fantastic. It feels like you’re watching a movie. You can hear the water lapping on the shores, you can picture the helicopter and the emergency vehicles. It’s some of the best audio drama I’ve listened to.
The Characters & Acting
The character of Wayne is played by David Harbour from Stranger Things, but I didn’t know that when I first started listening. He creeped me out in the beginning, but I feel like that’s a good thing. He’s grown on me, although I’m not altogether sure what to make of him at this point…
Bottom Line
Aftershock is a twisty, turny mystery podcast, in which more details coming to light in every episode. The characters and their motivations are questionable from the start, and you’re never sure who to trust. There’s both foreshadowing and flashbacks, and I’ve reacted out loud (laughter, gasping, and “no f-ing way!” alike) on most episodes.
