Gripping
This is a beautifully made podcast, that really highlights the human cost of conspiracy theories. The hunt for Q itself is totally gripping and Enthralling (I finished the whole series in 2 days). Finding Q finds the perfect balance of humour and depth. It’s one of the best podcasts I’ve listened to in years, and I really hope it receives the attention it deserves.

Q-rious and Q-riouser
What a riveting investigation. Nicky and the team have done a wonderful job in bringing to light a shadowy part of the web where mere normies fear to tread. The series had the potential to be heavy-going but is leavened by Nicky's passion, humour, and refreshing honesty about what he has learned along the way. A particularly touching moment comes when he catches sight of the real, human cost of conspiracy theories, where individuals connected to Q followers have been unwittingly drawn into a live-action roleplay against their will. Their stories are respectfully acknowledged, with snippets of interviews with various family members of Q casualties.
The series is narrated with care and clarity, with some terrific descriptions of characters met along the way. Complemented by a positively Matrixesque soundtrack, the effect is vivid and visceral. The pulse quickens as towards the end Nicky finally catches up with the near-mythic personages at the head of the Q movement - my heart was in my mouth for much of the recordings on the ground. Scintillating stuff.
A word on the production: breathtaking. The story is easy to follow - big gobs of Blu Tack and bright red string - an incredible weave of soundbites and voice acting (an especially nice touch in modifying the "voice" of Q to give it shades of operatic, demonic grandiosity, perfectly capturing the affected lure for online followers), and the kind of intuitive side-kick swiftness that allows Nicky by turns to give chase to inspiration and to take stock in the aftermath - the series is beautifully paced.
An important piece of journalism that will not fail to enthral and entertain.

Brilliant
Gripping, tense, enlightening. Brilliantly produced. Other podcasts have dabbled with the subject matter (e.g. Reply All, This American Life), but this dives deep into the crazy world of the Qanon Conspiracy. Worth every second of your time

Who is Q?
An interesting and thoughtful podcast that sheds some light on this most perplexing of phenomena ... the propagation of a cult in plain sight, facilitated and ably assisted by the social media platforms we all subscribe to.
I would steer people in the direction of 'The Storm is Upon Us' by Mike Rothschild to fill in some of the gaps that are here but, overall, this is a really well produced and entertaining overview of the QAnon conspiracy umbrella (simply because it involves rolling EVERY conspiracy theory into one!) ... highly recommended if only for the testimony of a former disciple of Q ...

Establishment claptrap
Q-Anon might have merit or not.
The problem with this nonsense is that the author doesn't care either way.
His only goal is to achieve validation from like-minded people that he's smarter than everyone else: A typical virtue-signaling goldfish.
I won't be continuing my free trial subscription.

Really liked it
My wife and I have been listening to this as we were driving around on holiday and it's been great! It's a very interesting story, it sometimes goes a bit off piste - but it's always a good listen - recommend it

Had me gripped
Really interesting and well paced. Didn't know much about Q Anon going into this, but this had me hooked the entire way through, like a good thriller.

Gripping
Haven't got as much out of a podcast since the first series of Serial. I think the only thing that could have been explored more is the relationship with wider support for Trump.

Interesting, well researched
Excellent podcast. Definitely kept my attention. If you want to know who q is or how qanon has affected regular people, worth a listen.

Good narrator, lame story.
Great story teller. Not impressive journalism wise. Lots of questionable leaps which eventually lead to a non conclusive ending. Would still recommend if you are bored .

So good I can’t stop talking about it
I never leave reviews but this is just so, so good. The story is so engaging, whether you’re familiar with Q or not. The narrator is so good - funny, sharp, relatable. I’m probably going to listen to it again.

Really outstanding
Lots of original reporting and terrific investigation into the poisonous phenomenon of the QAnon conspiracy theory that has done so much damage to the US and spread to the rest of the world (thanks America). Very entertaining and with a stunning and highly convincing conclusion. One of the best - and most important - podcasts ever yet produced by anybody.

Preferred to HBO’s “Into the Storm”
Rather enjoyed this. Good pacing, good interviews, kept my attention. Narrator Nikki Woolf’s “warts and all” approach to this topic, which often includes some sardonic self-reflection, was pitch perfect for me. Worth a try if you are interested in the cultural phenom of the QAnon Cult.

Outstanding work, thoroughly researched
This excellent work of journalism managed to answer all the questions I had swirling in my head mabout this cult. Nice companion piece to the HBO documentary. The dedication of this journalist to answer difficult questions is remarkable.

Gripping. Thrilling. Haunting
Excellent narrative construction on a down-to-base journalistic investigation. The theme is not novel anymore, but it still reverberate a lot as it might ignite again someday...

Like watching paint dry
Boring hours of bland British man’s diary of obsession trying to identify a person. This would have been much better as a study of the movement and how people are seduced into it.
The best part was the low rate sound effects and music and that is not saying much.

welcome to the asylum
I can't wait until this entire thing goes into the Dustbin of History. Donald Trump, Q Anon all the crazy is fascinating but completely destructive and toxic. there were times when the narrator seemed as crazy as his subject in his single-mindedness to uncover the identity. of the notorious Q. interesting to listen to all of this but it does not bring out the best in US to say the least
