Tales from the Fringes deftly tackles the difficult task of making sense of reality bending, mixing magic with more mundane concepts in a way that's intriguing but not confusing or overwhelming. There's a whole cosmology of figures both mythic and ordinary, with fascinating backstories and humanizing quirks. Each episode feels like discovering something new and exciting, while raising more questions about the many unique worlds and the places between. I also adore how the story involves the listener as a character, which feels particularly appropriate for a story that spans infinite realities.
