Not only has this podcast made the show even more enjoyable, it’s totally interesting and entertaining all on its own. It’s funny, creative, well written, well researched, and I can’t understate how much fun it’s been to learn more about the stagecraft of the show as well as the other movies and shows covered on the pod. I’m so glad to join my fellow refiners here.

Thank you so much for such an amazing Severance podcast! I absolutely love this show and listening to Allen discuss it on the podcast. Allen puts a lot of thought and effort into this show and it is immensely enjoyable and entertaining. I have really enjoyed listening to the episodes on the movies that have inspired this show while we wait for another season as well. Keep up the amazing work Allen!

We got into Severed about a year ago and this podcast has really made rewatches much more fun. We can’t wait for the in depth shows as we experience season 2!

Allen’s research into the production and writing of Severance is unmatched!

The audio production is spot-on. The background, the research, everything, is perfect. Serious time has been spent, and continues to be spent, as he goes through multiple rewatches, interviews, updates from Reddit and Facebook… absolutely perfect.

As someone who has rewatched the tv show multiple times, sought out all the conspiracy theories, and had endless discussions with others, I was beside myself when I found this podcast! The production quality, the pacing and structure, and the thoughtfulness of each episode is incredible. I binged the first dozen episodes in a few days and made sure to join the Patreon because this immediately became one of my favorites. Have recommended to all my friends (who I also coerced into watching Severance in the first place). Cannot wait for the Season 2 breakdown and am loving the origins episodes until then!

This is the best audio production of a show deep dive you are going to find. I highly recommend giving it a listen- even if Severance isn’t your favorite. Alan S.’s presentation technique is truly a work of art- seamlessly blending show details, backstory facts, performer insight, audio clips, commentary, film/production knowledge and humor. I can’t say enough how much I enjoy his work. I recommend trying one of his Origins episodes, where he explores the inspirations behind Severance. Try The Matrix, Truman Show, or my personal favorite “Office Space”. If you are a listener, do yourself a favor and listen! And if you are a Severance fan- well, what are you waiting for?! Time to refresh and catch up before Season 2. This is my first review, so thank you for reading and I hope you enjoy this podcast as much as I do. And please listen and like- it may encourage him to make more. Also, there is a lot of value to becoming a Patreon subscriber- Just giving a little plug there for the other fans who may be reading- join us Innies to discuss the mystery and importance of it all, equally.

Incredible research + analysis. 5 stars

He’s definitely got a face made for radio. Excellent research and discovery around Severance.

I don’t say that lightly. I’m super picky and have listened to dozens of recap podcasts. This one is hands down the best. Informative, super detailed, incredibly entertaining. The host’s voice is soothing (I try to enjoy them all equally but I can’t, he’s too good) and I find myself relaxing, even though the subject matter and show are anxiety inducing. Thank you, Allen!

So much good detail and research for the severance series. A must listen for any fan.

When I finished Severance and realized there was no release date for the next season, I was heartbroken. But then I found this podcast and it has been a fantastic way to get deeper into the Severance world while we wait for season 2. Really well done and informative! Nice work.

This is a stellar podcast. My only negative comment would be that you really should not listen until you've seen all nine episodes. I would have liked to listen to each episode recap as I viewed each episode instead. If you've seen all nine episodes this podcast is really excellent.

Love the show! Great voice, interesting trivia, and a fun companion to Severance.

This podcast is by far the best and my favorite Severance podcast. There are so many superlatives to attribute to Alan S for his wonderful and tireless work; so very thorough and precise. It is also worth noting, I love his sublime radio voice!

You nailed this podcast. His it out the park. The attention to detail in this podcast matches the intensity of the level of detail in the show itself. Thanks for this - amazing way to relive season 1 while waiting so patiently for season 2!

Love this podcast especially all the research and details that go into it. This has to be one of the best produced podcasts available every aspect feels professionally done. Don’t miss!

I can’t get enough of this show and WOW! I just love this podcast

At first I didn’t think I would enjoy one person describing in detail what I had seen … or what I thought I had seen! My innie missed a lot and this podcast fills in both what was shown and what is shown in chronological order … except for an abundance of spoilers. Yes, this pod happily spoils everything so watch all the episodes at least once or twice before listening. lol

Very thorough analysis of each episode. Heads in a lot of detail outside the scope of the episode to bring even more insight. High quality, recording, and very listener friendly voice.

Love everything about this Pod! If you are a fan of Severed and enjoy going down the rabbit hole in re: to each episode, do not wait to download this podcast! I simply cannot enjoy it equally to other podcasts!

Loved Allen’s WKRP Cast. I didn’t know if I would like Severance but after watching the season, I was able to listen to the podcast. Allen has done a great job on the first two episodes. Now I have to rewatch season one again. Happy to be able to listen to Allen again!

I enjoyed this podcast so much, I listened twice. Alan S gives clear summaries with great trivia mixed in. It’s obvious how much work goes into each episode to give us this information! Can’t wait for season 2 of the show, and more Severed!

A huge fan of the show, I was looking forward to learning more about the actors, production, storylines, mysteries and characters. These things are covered extremely thoroughly - too thoroughly. It felt like 20 minutes of the first episode were spent on color choices the production team made and why. Nah, I’m good.

Great production values, keep up he good work!

This podcast was just what I needed after watching Severance! I watched it a second time immediately after my first watch and listened to this podcast after every episode. Allen has a great podcast voice and I always wish the episodes of the podcast would keep going, not just because I love Severance but I love this rewatch podcast. Severed is well produced and very detailed. He asks all the questions I ask and researches all the stuff I research when I watch shows like this, except he does A LOT more of it! Allen will answer a lot of your questions, share many theories to the questions we can’t answer, and call your attention to details in the show you did not miss. (He has me VERY concerned about Devon in season 2!) Thank you Allen S.!

First of all, the host has a fantastic speaking voice! He points out details I missed and gives interesting insights about the actors, set design, etc. As he repeatedly says, this is a podcast to listen to AFTER you’ve watched all 9 episodes. This podcast is exactly what I need while I wait for season 2!

I wish I could rate this 10 because bravo! Scene by scene breakdown, actor/actress bios, cool trivia, theories, and more. I have watched this show so many times I should receive a severance perk, and I can’t believe how much I still missed about the episodes until this podcast. I’ll probably listen to them all again right before season 2 comes out. Please do this for all my favorite shows!!

Recently, I got around to watching ‘Severance’ After viewing an intense series, I like to seek out a podcast to listen to and then rewatch the series. Having done this with many shows, I have to say ‘Severed: The Ultimate Podcast’ is far and away the absolutely very best experience I’ve ever had. You get the Easter eggs, the background stories, the interviews with folks who talk about richly interesting details you would never hear anywhere else! Allen Stare has masterfully presented this show in podcast form, making previous podcasts pale in comparison. Thank you so much!

this is exactly the podcast Severance fans will love!! it’s v thorough and beautifully-made, and it recaps the events of the show while also going into in-depth film analysis with insight from the show’s production and reception would highly recommend, and can’t wait for season 2!! #PraiseKier 💧

Listening to this podcast felt like I was rewatching the show with a complete expert there with me giving me all the interesting details surrounding the show. I cannot recommend it enough! Just amazing from start to finish. The highest quality podcast I’ve ever listened to.

This is exactly the kind of analysis I have been wanting! Thank you!

Praise Kier! Listen up refiners, this is the podcast you’ve been waiting for. Creator Dan Erickson has created something special with Severance, and after season one completed it left so many people with unanswered questions. Severance is one of those shows that instantly sparked a lot of debate online, endless fan theories, and much more. In this podcast you’ll hear Allen Stare do an amazing job at explaining the show’s every moment, the tiniest of details, fan theories, & so much more. As a giant fan of the show, I was instantly hooked to this podcast. I always felt like I kept up with the “lore” surrounding Severance, but oh boy was I wrong. Allen did an outstanding job with pulling things from all over to compile one heck of a podcast. Grab a coffee, preferably straight from the hills of Rwanda, sit back & get SEVERED.

This is an amazing, through, detailed podcast. I highly recommend it. It’s insightful and entertaining. Such an intelligent and thoughtful host. You have brought glory to this company and to me… Kier Eagan.

Allen S. does the best “Severance” podcast. It’s the only one I can listen to, and I have listened to all 9 episodes (9 as of today) multiple times. His announcing style is professional, his delivery natural and modulated. He is not “winging it” or yakking extemporaneously. Each podcast reflects great preparation and research. Allen S.’s speech is smoothly integrated with audio clips from the show. Lots of trivia and interesting tributaries to float down. Music is also integrated really nicely. Such a pleasure to listen to and a great support to the show, especially if you are obsessed and need to reflect on episodes before you re-watch for the umpteenth time. Bravo, Allen S., I will now stagger my exit.

In the first 20 minutes of episode 1 of this podcast, the host spoils a key revelation that doesn’t happen until episode 9. Part of the fun of podcasts like this is taking the journey with the host(s), including speculations, observations, and insights. This podcast is for after you have watched all of season 1. Not very fun in my opinion.

If you love Severance, you will thoroughly enjoy this deep dive! The Severed podcast dissects every episode nearly frame by frame. I’ve watched Season 1 several times, and Allen S still pointed out details I’d missed. He has done his homework! Back stories on each actor, setting, scene, and alllllll the red-blue-green symbolism. I’m obsessed both with the show and with this thorough discussion of it!

I like this podcast as much as I like this show!

I have watched Season 1 of Severance several times and I still missed details that Allen mentioned in this podcast. If you’re a fan of Severance, this podcast is a must. I was blown away about the details regarding the former CEOs of Lumon and so many other moments. How did I miss that info? Praise Allen!

I will now state facts about this podcast. Please try to enjoy each fact equally. This podcast covers important details about the show. This podcast gives a play by play of each scene. This podcast gives information about the actors playing the characters. This podcast will give spoilers. Please try to enjoy watching the television show before listening. This podcast lives up to its title: ‘The Ultimate…’ This podcast is perfect for fans and the mildly interested. This podcast is mysterious and important. Listen in weekly or report to the break room.

I love this podcast! Wow! The scene by scene coverage with the attention to detail and supplemental facts make this better than a caricature portrait or finger cuffs for any Severance fan. I had no idea about the Lexington Letter until I heard it here. This work is mysterious and important. Praise Kier!

If you are a fan of the show, this is the ultimate guide to get in even deeper. The detail and depth of information and things you probably missed is amazing in what you will learn as you listen to this podcast. I’m rewatching episodes for the third time after listening to the podcast to watch for the details that are described.

I love the detail regarding the show including the production, behind the scenes, cast bios and interviews. It’s also helpful to describe each scene with audio snippets because it’s like I’m watching again but things I’ve missed are being highlighted for me. Ultimately the storytelling is top notch and it’s the perfect companion to watching the show. Looking forward to a new episode each week!

I really like the scene by scene recap of the episode. It’s like I am watching it again, but this time I am getting tips on details I missed like the red and blue objects separated by a barrier. I never noticed this before. I also like the audio clips from the show being used as part of the retelling. Looking forward to the next episode!

It’s great to look more deeply at what’s going on in this show. I like the information we get about the actors and locations. There are a lot of details that are easy to miss (e.g. the date on Mark S.’s Driver’s License) and this podcast points them out.

As I continue to be consumed by Severance, I’m happy I dropped in and listened to the podcast. Excellent storytelling and descriptions, I was able to visualize each statement you made. Looking forward to more!

I’ve never watched the show but Al is one of my favorite human beings so here I am 😁

Severance is my favorite show! I didn’t hesitate to listen to an actual podcast about it. I absolutely loved the podcaster’s explanation, theories and facts about every part of the show. There are so many little details to the storylines and characters, I think the podcaster does a great job covering it all. Praise Kier!

Extremely well researched. I has everything I was missing from others! This host has actually read the Lumon letter and gives background on the actors. Love it! Can’t wait to hear more.
