Popular Reviews of Alba Salix, Royal Physician

I LOVE THIS SHOW. I'm also biased. :)

Both Alba Salix & it's Axe & Crown spinoff are among my favorite shows. They're silly - slapstick silly, full of ridiculous mishaps and centaur chiropractics and intercultural misunderstandings. Characters are broadly drawn and played for humor, and all in all it feels like a wonderful fantasy-world farce. And then there are feelings. Moments of genuine emotion and tenderness, little pockets of meaning. These shows are silly as hell, but they use the silliness to take you somewhere. SO well done. I tend to focus on the writing but... the sound design is seamless and if you're me you stop noticing it entirely and just feel like you're there.

Think Scrubs meets Discworld, and you're half way to the comedy genius that is Alba Salix! This is the show that gives the world what we had no idea we needed: A hospital sit com set in a medieval fantasy world. Not to be missed!

A fantastic and hilarious show!

I love this show. You'll be immersed in a world of wonder and the comedy of the day-to-day grind! It's just great!

A really light hearted fantasy story that gets deeper and richer as it goes on. An absolute joy to listen to and also quite funny. I reccomend this show to friends all the time!

Funny and charming, well worth a listen when you want a cheer up. Axe and Crown is my personal favourite but Alba is fab too!

Humorous fantasy setting with great characters, voice acting, and multiple storylines. Love it.

I love this show so very much and I adore how rich and full the world is and only becomes more so with each season. The characters are full of life and energy and I feel that with every line. So much depth makes me feel like I know both the world and the characters so well. The writing is so funny and rich while also having emotional heart and some very powerful moments.

So good. I love Alba and crew.

Alba is just trying to run a respectable house of healing but people's shenanigans keep getting in the way - mostly those of her assistants. Good thing they're so endearing. This show is wonderful and hilarious.

I didn't think I'd care for this show much when I started it but I ended up loving it! Especially The Axe and Crown episodes. I need so much more of it all in my life!

Never thought I'd be into something like this but I guess I am now!

Now this is a masterpiece of simplicity! Absolutely loved every single episode and the characters were SO well-voiced and written. I CRAVE for more of Alba and The Axe & Crown, I've grown too attached to the world as well as the people that inhibit it. It was a pleasant ride filled with humour, funny parallels of fantasy and today's world, and exciting scenes with brilliant sound design and dialogues. Definitely recommend this to anyone who has even a sliver of interest in fantasy!

One of my all-time favorite podcasts. Great jokes, wonderful characters, and random quirky happenings on every step of the adventure!

Very entertaining, we just need more

Just finished catching up to all episodes and what a joy to listen to. Entertaining, well paced and great humour with likeable characters. 💜

Season 1 was great season 2 seems to be a shift in style

A hilarious, ridiculous, heart-warming podcast with some incredible sound production and amazing script writing.

Excellent audio drama with fantastic story lines and AMAZING sound effects! Can’t wait for more— I’m so glad to have stumbled upon this after two seasons of Alba + Axe & Crown for bingeing purposes. Now I can’t wait for more!!
