Midnight Magic
Midnight Burger is an amazingly deep, witty, and exciting podcast and it’s probably my favorite show ever. The writing is fabulous and it’s made up of those conversations that we have when we are up late at night looking into the vastness with a friend, when suddenly you strike up a conversation of wonder that makes you think past our existence. The show makes you want to believe. There are some words and lines that speak within me, the kind of words that resonante with your spirit and make you feel a slight tremble that causes your hair to rise. Excellent.
We open at 6!
Incredibly fun and entertaining! Effie and Zebulon are the best- just a great show.
Fun and Chaotic
So this is actually a really lovely and funny podcast. It kind of took the surrealism of The Far Meridian and the comedy of Wooden Overcoats and turned that mix into a great sci-fi series. And it definitely has the production value of those two podcasts as well. Looking forward to the next episodes! Update: So sometimes when podcasts start to have more a plot than “crazy things happen sometime” it gets less touching and calming. That’s not what happens here. The writers, the actors, and sound designers put so much love and car that it keeps getting better. It keeps getting deeper. I absolutely relisten to the more isolated early episodes, but I enjoy the more plot driven episodes just as much. Looking forward to more of the adventure!
Was Once A Great Podcast… Fell Victim to a Common Mistake
This show began beautifully. It was creative, well written, well produced, wildly entertaining, etc. with time it fell victim to success and began feeling the need to do what so many other programs of all sorts did. They “break up” the main cast and add new and unnecessary characters. This prevents actually story from moving forward and kills the show. Another problem is that one of the new characters was performed by a mouth actor rather than a voice actor.
Season 2 Finale
Season Two Finale was well worth the wait!! Cannot wait for Season 3 to begin! I am obsessed with this podcast!! 🥰 I’ve re-listened to every episode multiple times - it’s so well done!
Love the podcast, not the subscription
Paid for the subscription, can’t even listen to the newest episode even though it’s downloaded and shows I’m a subscriber and playing all older episodes. Love the show overall, but… not a fan of paying money to not even get the benefits
Fantastic
This podcast is so much fun!! I randomly stumbled across it and glad I did!!
absolutely fantastic
i genuinely think that i’ve listened to this podcast all the way threw six times, not an exaggeration. hands down, my favourite audio show ever to exist. nothing to me will ever live up to the comedy and production value of midnight burger. the voice acting, amazing. the writing, fantastic. the characters, phenomenal. makes me want to try a monte cristo. 100% worth the listen
My absolute favorite of all podcasts
Interesting, unusual, beautifully acted with a wide range of expression, engagingly written and with a distinctive sense of humor—as I said, Midnight Burger is my absolute favorite podcast of all time
Just so good
The combination of humor, mystery, old timey music, and science is just so unexpected and delightful. I have struggled with some humorous podcasts but this is so well done I often laugh like an idiot in my car while listening. The voice acting is great and the production quality is top notch!
Midnight Burger makes life better
This show has been a light in the dark. After becoming disabled by a recently diagnosed chronic illness, and a mysterious one for which it is hard to receive treatment, I found it difficult to do much at all for a time. I lay there sick, with the thoughts that come to a person when they body is under attack. When it became difficult to hold a book, I started listening to podcasts. This podcast has enriched my daily life. I have something to look forward to and sometimes a scientific factoid to ponder between episodes. I can become totally carried away with the hilarious & intelligent script and characters. It makes me so happy. It makes me forget the pain for a time. Thank you to all involved in making this show for continuing to write this series. Your hard work is not just appreciated, but treasured. (I only wish I had financial means to support this project as well.)
The most recent, “Interlude: Vela”…
brought me to literal tears. If the creator/writer happens to read reviews, you should know, that, this is a beautiful show. Thank you for making it!
Love Love Love this
The cast is charming, the premise is wonderful and I want more 🪐
Unique
I just love how different this show is
Love the show, but …
Love the show, but I’m not going to write a review for the show - that’s what everyone else is doing. Instead, I’m going to write a review for “Science News” the extra episode just before E19. It was beautiful and brought me to tears. I am a science teacher who discovered a while ago that Carl Sagan’s golden record was actually a message for Earthlings. I introduce the gr to my students and have them create their own “This is us” golden records. They think it’s an assignment about Earth science, but what it turns out to be is their own record of what they love about our home and why they want to be part of taking care of it. It’s a beautiful thing. We left the planet and discovered ourselves. (I know an astronaut said something like that - it’s true.) I have never come across anyone else who also sees the golden records in this way until today while listening to “Science News”. More please. Your intergalactic perspectives are entertaining, yes, but also enlightening and even, in a round about sort of way, hopeful. Ms. Love

Doctor who meets Guardians of the Galaxy!!
I LOVE this story! This podcast is so unique from other stories.If you like doctor who you’ll love this one.No spoilers.But this story is about the main characters constantly traveling across the universe.While serving coffee and helping others along the way.It’s incredibly funny and heartfelt.I can’t wait for the new episodes!
One Heck of a Feel-Good Space Romp
You know that feeling of slight trepidation mixed with comfort that permeates a Waffle House experience at the wee hours of morning? Welcome to Midnight Burger, the auditory equivalent of a warm plate of house fries and good conversation shared with a friend on a sticky vinyl tablecloth. I downloaded Apple Podcasts just so I could leave this review in the hopes that someone is convinced to listen. It’s weird, it’s wonderful, and for a show largely dealing with alien life and the unknown vastness of space, it’s endearingly human. The cast does a wonderful job of conveying a misfit group bonded by uncertainty, and the humor is quick, quippy, and intelligent. I’ve felt right at home as a huge Star Wars and occasional Star Trek fan in the colorful and heartwarming world of the show. Randomly being recommended this show has been a fantastic surprise as it’s truly challenged me to think more deeply about philosophical concepts of life and love without making me drained and hopeless. I hope you’ll join me at Midnight Burger. Milkshakes are on me. See you soon.
My New Favorite Sci-Fi???
Stumbled upon this after seeing it advertised on Unseen and thought "well if *they* think it's worth promoting, then I gotta at least give it a shot." And I was not disappointed in the slightest! Midnight Burger is funny, heartfelt, dramatic, and frankly has made a strong case for itself as one of the best sci-fi audio dramas currently running. Whether you've listened to audio dramas before or not, this is an easy recommendation. Plus, the monthly release schedule makes it pretty easy to catch up without feeling like you're falling behind, which is a nice plus in my book. 10/10, 5 stars, every day a new episode drops is a great day!
One of my favorites
I stumbled upon this show a few days ago and have been binging it ever since. I love the premise, the actors, and have laughed out loud multiple times. This is the first time I’ve bothered posting a review, but just felt compelled to because it is that good!
