    Good but not listening til the next season is released
    Everything in the series is very good, but since Season 2 is now 2 years delayed, I’m not going to finish listening. Please finish up this story QCode

    Review 👶
    I feel changed after listening to this thankful that this isn’t a real scenario. I feel as though mark handled this acting really good and was interesting to hear him voice act.
  • MuseTV
    Unique look into an old trope
    It was so interesting and different. I really liked it, I listened to it in one sitting and now listening to the audio book.
  • wings offf fire biggg fannn
    The only thing I have to say is…

  • Orangeaxolotl
    Very good, but…
    I really like the show, but like a lot of audio dramas, it feels cut short.

    Perfectly Bingeable Horror
    This was a great story - with excellent pacing, a unique story, and good acting/effects. I love that it was 8 episodes, so I listened to it all across 2 days. My favorite Q CODE so far.
  • Ja.que.lin
    A MUST LISTEN TO!!
    I love this channel and have listened to many of their other stories but this series is the best by far hands down! The production and writing is phenomenal.
  • katsuery
    Not for me
    Tried this one out cause I saw it had great reviews. Wasn’t for me. I found the acting to be corny but I tried to stick with it .. but ultimately had to turn it off halfway through the season.
  • My bathroom is a mess
    THIS IS AMAZING
    Mark you did so good on the podcast (Markiplier) I loved your parts on the show and the voice acting so good some parts made me cry or mad this podcast is a masterpiece of horror
  • Connor ♾️
    Clearly because of Brenda
    In episode two Brenda said it was a quiet night, whit is a taboo in the medical field. Clearly all her fault
  • willytree

  • &00&s

  • Podcastenjoyer:)
    WAY TO COOL
    I’ve never actually been a podcast person so listening to this was a new experience. And man do I wish there was more.
  • kiki___sawyer
    does not disappoint… well
    okay let me say this first: i absolutely love this audio drama and many of there others BUT none of them have season twos and it’s very very upsetting. Main reason is because a lot of them end on a cliff hanger or genuinely just feel unfinished… personally i would rather them start working on second seasons for their shows instead of continuing to pump out new audio dramas🤷🏻
  • lucill????????
    The best
    I didn’t sleep listening to this.I have never wanted to re listen to a pod cast or read a book more than this. :) :3 :}
  • hunten and fishen
    AMAZING!!!
    Probably the best podcast based on a book I’ve ever heard/read it’s amazing!!!
  • ikeliddy
    I listened all night
    Legit stayed up to 4 am to listen all the way
  • CherSullivan
    #1 audio drama
    I’ve made my way through quite a few audio dramas the past couple of years and QCode shows are reliably entertaining. This show in particular is especially captivating, there isn’t really anything quite like it. Everyone I shared it with agrees that it’s the best audio drama out there, even a year later
  • Fluffyloggers
    I don’t know what to do
    I keep trying to download them so I can listen to it at my house where there is no service or internet. It says that it’s downloading then disappears and doesn’t put it on downloaded podcasts. I love this story I have the subscription but it doesn’t allow me to download.
  • Duck 1982
    WOW
    I’ve really gotten into a few podcasts, and this one grabbed me by the ear and dragged me into obsession. Mark’s sultry voice and the compelling and interesting story combination is phenomenal. I cannot wait for season two, please I need it 😭😭❤️❤️

  • wjndjsjsn
    Wow
    Before this, I had never seen myself being a podcast person. After listening to this, that likely has changed. This was phenomenal and I want a season 2! All the actors in it were extremely talented and engaging. The story was super interesting and I was completely invested throughout the whole thing. I love love loved it!!

    Mark Please come back and record!!!!
    I need a season 2 , this is one of marks best projects he has ever done, it’s unfortunately being slept on. Mark please find the time to record season 2!! This is a amazing show and I can’t wait any longer to hear season 2!
  • Char Lakin
    Just give us the promised content please
    Great story, but my lord, I currently don’t care about the movie or the book if you can’t even finish the podcast that you said was supposed to come out “Late 2022”. We’re nearly halfway through 2023 and I’d probably care about the book and movie if the creators gave me a reason to care about the story. Hope this does well but I unfortunately just lost interest with the lack of communication and transparency
  • emthebem10
    MORE!!!!
    You guys need to finish what you start like this podcast and the beautiful liar and soft voice and and wanted and so many more I love the new shows that are coming out but you should keep producing the other ones at the same time it would make it so much better and you will have more reviews and your podcast would get up there more than it already is I love your shows and I wish you the best of luck. Thank you.
  • KingEddy123
    Such a great series
    Need a season 2!!
  • (Walter55)
    Never mind the book!
    How about the podcast, I’m not buying the book you don’t deserve my money after the way you dumped us podcast listeners, if your not going to finish the podcast, take your book and🤬! Same with the podcast that you abandoned without an explanation!🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬
  • bendymaster

  • ianboe2
    EXHILARATING!
    GIVE US SEASON TWOOOO!!!!!
  • this could have been good
    i love it

  • jehciejcbg
    Would’ve given 5
    I loved the plot and everything in the show, was super cool to listen to and I love the voice actors, especially mark. I just wish they’d give us some sort of information on the next season. They said it would come out 2022, then changed it to 2023 and haven’t said anything else. I just want a season 2.
  • Mcbobby129
    Please

  • probably not the greatest

  • Taco1228
    Whoa!
    Not gonna lie that was amazing! 10/10, can’t wait for season two. Told a few of my friends about this experience and they are all are loving it so far. It’s been a lot of talking points in the past few days. Awesome job!
  • SaraConklin
    I’m impressed!
    This show is definitely dark, but really knocked my socks off. Compared to a lot of other QCode shows, I thought The Edge of Sleep was a strong in the beginning of the story arc as it was at the end. And a lot of their other shows, I feel like they start very strong, but end up really weak or nasty by the end. This show is definitely worth listening to and was a ton of fun. I am looking forward to season two!
  • M. Stephen
    We simply must have a season two!
    If you’ve listened to season one you’ll understand how this show draws you in. When it ended it was as if I had just started listening. A tell tale sign of a really intriguing story is when you are so caught up in it that as each episode concludes it’s as if you just started it but it’s over already. I will not give anything away to those who haven’t listened. Check this out and yes it’s worth the time. Although that being said it would surely be beyond disappointing if this story isn’t allotted another season. There’s only one thought left and that is when will season two arrive. It’s been a while already what’s the delay?!
  • Nicholasbernett
    Can’t wait for season 2
    One thing I absolutely love about this podcast is the pacing! I binged the whole thing and was never bored or felt rushed through. I was glued from start to finish! Along with some super fun transitions to explain certain medications or backstories! Love love love! Need more!
  • I_exist222
    Amazing show can’t wait for season 2
    It says it all
  • Gamerofshadows
    Mark’s ONE of many great podcasts
    Mark does amazing in this podcast, hopefully this is his project he’s working on or he’s making the Dead Space movie, or possibly Soma, but in space (come on we know Mark loves space, he’s bound to do some movie in space)
  • Cheeseburgermuncher69
    Great podcast
    I haven’t finished the whole thing now but I already am on the 4th or 5th episode and I love it I like Dave’s backstory and his condition.
  • Waterboarding Instructor
    MOVIE?
    Either this or Dead Space the movie. Can’t wait for whatever project Mark is working on.
  • badwolf102002

  • anon012347
    Loving it!
    Had me constantly on the edge of my seat, curious as to what happens next! And usually podcasts make me sleepy, but this one was so exciting and unpredictable that I couldn’t bare even yawning! It’s a great listen!
  • haileysgarden
