Popular Reviews of Joy To The World

I didn't expect to tear up so much when I started listening to a short little Christmas podcast, but I did! Just about every single episode! Every story felt so full of love for the subjects, for all the different complicated ways we can feel about Christmas (with a dash of Hanukkah), and it managed to feel sincere without tipping over the line into cloying or cheesy. Quality-wise also excellent, the dialogue sounded very natural and the sound work was great.

A delightful collection of individual human stories, underpinned by the festive period and linked by the main character, Joy, who is an astronaut communicating with people back on Earth.Joy herself is a pleasant 'host', with great writing and voice acting introducing the various characters and stories. There are some incredibly heartwarming interactions that really leave you reflecting on your own emotions and choices.Episodes are crafted by a range of writers who approach the show and protagonist with their own outlook. It works really well, providing depth to proceedings while seamlessly slotting together.I only wish the show would return, or for the creator to release new series, as I would absolutely listen to either.
