About this listen

Alice Levine presents Very Modern Quests - a role-playing game set in the excruciating awkwardness of the real world.

In each episode one celebrity will become the protagonist in a choose-their-own adventure game with a difference; no goblins, no elves, just the nitty gritty of everyday life and no idea what’s about to happen.

Join Quest Master Alice Levine as she guides our guests through an everyday adventure with the help of character comedian Emma Sidi, embodying the everyday individuals we’d rather avoid.

Absolutely loved this series. It manages to be wild and imaginative, yet satisfyingly well-structured.

Alice Lavine is always a superb presenter. Witty and funny, without a hint of smugness.

Emma Sidi is particularly superb playing all of the characters, the guests have to interact with.

The stand-out episode for me would have to be Joe Lycett. What a treasure this man is!

My only negative is that the insufferable Lou Sanders was one of the guests, meaning I had to skip an episode. That's the only reason I didn't give this one a solid 5-stars.

Looking forward to a second series (please Audible!)

Really enjoyable. Funny and creative.

The best podcast I've listen to on a very long time. Every episode had we laughing out loud in public like a crazy person

In the saturated podcast market this is a truly original idea. Really funny, hope they make more.

Listened to them all a couple of days. Really funny. Alice on form as always. Rose Matafeo’s quest was delightful.

Great craic.

While the cast of comics are all a bit Taskmaster, this series is none the worse for it. It is engaging and amusing and I look forward to hearing more.

Fun idea well executed
