But soon, a civil war erupts between the immortals that wish to stay hidden, and those that want to integrate fully with the rest of mankind on the surface. A clandestine division of the CIA known as Blackdoor discovers the immortals’ existence and seeks to eliminate the perceived threat that they represent to U.S. sovereignty.

Great Show

I’m not a big fan of scripted podcast shows. However, this show is phenomenal and addictive. Heard the entire first season in one night and found the dialogue well written. Wonderful job on the show.
Not a fan

I tried to get into this, but it just wasn’t very interesting to me. It just seemed to be some kind of press for a specific kind of political ideology. I’m sure some people like that but for me I was just looking for an entertaining podcast.
Awful

BassoonMuscle

Wow…..just awful.
Totally agree with the politics, but the podcast… not great

02/21/2024

Sexy beast123333335555

First off- my poor review isn’t due to the politics of this show. I totally agree with them. But the show seems to be just a series of similar conversations with a guy saying “I have a crazy idea! But maybe, maybe it just might work!” Without any further explanation on how it might work. It’s literally just that, repeated over and over with different people gasping and saying “that’s a crazy idea! Whaaat!”. It’d be a lot better if yall went in depth about **how** giving a million dollars to every citizen would help the country. Because that would get the listener invested in the idea. Otherwise it just feels like you’re listening to some self righteous dude with an undiagnosed personality disorder blow up at people in order to make himself feel like a tortured political genius. And just when you think they might describe how it would work, they don’t.
It’s really not good.

I wanted to enjoy this show. Got thru two episodes and gave up. The production quality is terrible, and the actors all sound like they’re struggling.
Almost made it through

I’m a big fan of “The West Wing”, so I was hoping for a similar story. I think the potential for one is there, but there are so many ads for products, recaps, teasers for the next ep, and other podcasts and commentary from the creators that I honestly could not discern when the actual narrative started and stopped. I made it to Ep 5 but just quit. A good idea is there, but presentation is distractingly disjointed.
Too much filler

06/03/2023

werfgtyyg

I enjoyed the story, but episodes that were already very short were half filled with ads, recaps, commentary. Made for a very annoying listen. Should have just been released as a single episode if that’s all the content they have.
Disappointing

01/04/2019

atsummer

Big fan of Patrick Adams, but this was just a lame series.
Unrealistic economics

04/18/2019

Kikofrn

Preachy and basic. Also each episode only has around 7 minutes of new content.
I really wanted to like it

11/02/2018

BB0n3s

But boy was that a letdown. I love the cast, the actors were the reason I listened to the whole thing, but wow the writing left something to be desired. It felt like a script from a brand new out of college writer. The story lines were predictable and stale. I wanted more conflict, to know more about this million dollar idea so I could really root for it. It sounds like a pie in the sky concept that the listener is just expected to go along with with no real context. I’m so bummed, there was such potential and it fell so flat.
