Popular Reviews of Jar of Rebuke

i'm always yearning for a good small-town/midwestern gothic, and boy does this show fill the hole in my heart. it's like the perfect blend of the SCP foundation and the adventure zone: amnesty, and it's queer in a way that is comforting, down-to-earth, and familiar to many LGBTQ+ folks. this show keeps you on edge, while still giving safe pockets throughout that feel like home. casper oliver really has inspired me as a writer going forward.

Jar of Rebuke is a very intriguing series. I generally like the style of tale where someone records deep thoughts while something mysterious looms, but until now I've only seen it in the sci-fi genres. It's interesting to hear one that's more in the horror-fantasy realm, especially since its setting is so close to home. I've really been enjoying Jar of Rebuke, and I can't wait for the next episode (which I believe is tomorrow, so I don't have long to wait)!

I'm in love with it so far... Definitely worth the listen. And while some of the writing could be edited to be more concise, it's completely made up for in plot and enthusiasm. It's also a joy to listen to a psychologically thrilling world where the horrors don't involve traumatizing LGBTQ+ individuals, but do celebrate us and emphasize a sense of normalcy. 10/10

A fun podcast that I'm glad I was told about when it just started, because now I really can't wait to know what will happen in the next episodes. There is some obvious inspiration by popular horror works (SCP Foundation and Welcome to Night Vale to name a few), and if you enjoyed any of those -or any kind of gothic horror-, I can't recommend Jar of Rebuke highly enough. Dr Jared is such sweet and charming character... considering the plot of Jar of Rebuke, he might be one of the few safe havens you will find here as the story progresses. Only its skilled cast and time will tell us.

Jared is a fun and relatable character, the storytelling is pretty good and has a good slow burn to it. I'm also convince the midwest ain't sh*t. I always assume the midwest is this baron wasteland full of 7/11 or Sheets, where kids name Tyler or Jonesy hope they're mediocre alt rock band can hop on warp tour, but apparently yall got ghost kids and hell hounds too. I mean ghost kids and hell hound are cool, would so go to the midwest and see them, but then I gotta deal with dude's doing punk pop covers of country songs. But really though, fun podcast, real happy I came across this. What I love about the show is, everything is a mystery, from the character or Jared and he company they work for The Enclosure. The podcast just started but I already i can tell it's a show where you really need to pay attention to. Each episodes adds more layers to the mystery of the story, doesn't answer the question, they're small hints but you can tell it's important. Looking forward to the the future!

Not only Jar of Rebuke's narrative is captivating and Dr.Jared Hel relatable but the way it brings up these legends is compelling, a perfect mix of horror and Hel's humor. Besides the well-told legends, "The Enclosure"'s secrets are something one wants to dive into.

I've been listening to this since Pilot. The Rebukers cast and crew are a gaggle of incredibly talented and creative folx. And don't get me started on the awesome shenanigans had by all! Anywho, this podcast is *chefs kiss*. It's uber queer. It sucker punches you in the feels. And it's sooo relatable when it comes to exploring yourself as a person! I've never listened to a podcast where it's 100% queer characters throughout. And I enjoy trying to figure out what the hecc is happening! ^^;; I highly recommend JOR. Glorious perfection. <3

Dr Jared Hel's audio journal is phenomenal! I love the Spooky Farm town vibes, but also the supernatural elements feel really realistic. Many lines made me smile while reading- trust me- this is a story you'll want to keep up with!

An audio drama that is spooky and mysterious. Dr. Jared, played by Casper Oliver, captivates with his iconic narration. The premise is intriguing, and every episode leaves me wanting more.

A beautiful gem of a podcast, has elements of the world of the SCP foundation and WTNV. Lots of cryptids and queer folks!

Excellent narrative podcast, with plenty of intrigue, heart, and the right amount of humor. Keeps me hooked and eagerly anticipating the next episode!

I opened two jars of rebuke it was so awesome!

I only listened to the first few episodes so far but it's very engaging! Dr. Jared Hel is such a sweet and often quite relatable character, and so are the side-characters that, in my opinion, really contribute to the worldbuilding. I like learning more about The Enclosure, the town Wichton, and, of course, I hope to learn more about Jared's past. The voice acting is lovely and I also like how this podcast incorporates diversity into its story. I just want to keep on listening!

Casper Oliver has created something that a lot of LGBTQIA+ folks have wanted for a while, an awesome audiodrama with queer characters that don't stand out as stereotypes, but rather are just normal people in the story. An singular they here, a two dads there, it all just blends into the fabric of the story. On top of that, Jared Hel's audio diaries are interesting and well acted. I really enjoy this podcast.

I'm really enjoying the voice acting in this! And I LOVE Dr. Hel!

If horror is your thing, and you love queer characters (and creators!) mixed with the supernatural, millennial humour and a perfect SCP inspiration, this show IS YOUR THING. Four episodes out and I'm already here for life. And instant fav.

Do you like horror? Do you like lgbt+ inclusion? Well this podcast is definitely for you! Follow along with this narrative podcast to get a very spooky experience. The narrators of this podcast do a fantastic job delivering the goods.

If you’re looking for a lovable protagonist in a spooky setting, this show is legit the place. to. be. The show is about Dr. Jared Hel, a potentially immortal, amnesiac doctor who works at a facility called The Enclosure in a small midwestern town. Jared is lovable, charismatic, self-effacing, smart, and constantly in and out of unsettling, endlessly-intriguing setups as he searches for answers about his past, and the town. I fell in love almost instantly. The series draws on actual midwestern lore to create a really visceral sense of the town--we’re big fans of the Snipe Hunt episode, which brings us in on local traditions in a way that really establishes the central juxtaposition of these really genuinely unsettling creatures and entities in this town and the almost-aggressive polite energy of small midwestern America--an introvert’s true worst nightmare. (Look, I instantly imprint on any character who feels awkward at a party, I can't help it.) Part Twin Peaks, part Pushing Daisies, part early-Sleepy Hollow (the tv show), and all heart.

An absolutely wonderful story and I can't get enough!!! I'm ready for season 2!

Amazing concept, great format and really loved the main character
