What a gem
A worthy successor to The Vinyl Cafe. I think Stuart McLean would be pleased. I am delighted.
A look into a mirror
What a delight to sit back and listen to a moment in our BC hidden history told with insight and humour! Todd takes us on a journey through time and place and leaves the listener feeling warmer, and prouder of our country and then people that a part of Canada. I can’t wait for the next episode of Mirror Falls.”
I’m hooked!
Such an intriguing podcast! It’s beautifully written and the audio design is perfect - adds to the experience without being overwhelming. I love that the episodes are short enough to listen to without too much time commitment, but also kind of wish they were longer because I want more! I can’t wait to listen to the whole season.
🎙️Sibilance
As usual, I put on my CPAP, queued up a podcast, and closed my eyes for a good night's rest.Everything was going perfectly... right up until the "microphone check" story. I laughed so hard I blew the CPAP mask clean off my face. So now I'm wide awake, writing this review instead of sleeping, but honestly, the belly laugh was worth it. Thanks, Tod.
Beautiful
Lovely episode. Listened to it twice and cried both times.
Finally!
Been waiting for a podcast that would echo the feel of Stuart McLean’s Vinyl Cafe. Waited a long time. Mirror Falls is the answer. Thank you Tod Maffin.
Prefect Podcast for Our Times
A wonderful podcast! The perfect antidote to our times. Warm, uplifting, and also full of subtle insight and observations on culture, history, and politics woven into a story about the quirks of an ordinary Canadian small town and its residents. I’m hooked!
Thank you!
Mirror Falls is just what I need right now! I appreciate the humour woven with compassion for humanity’s foibles. New episodes are something to look forward to.
Funny, and endearing
With the timbre of Tod’s voice, the cadence of the story, the humour, and the little nuggets sprinkled throughout, a totally enjoyable series! If you enjoyed The Vinyl Cafe, you’ll like this!!
Story telling at its best
Love these stories. Tod has a delightful way of drawing you in to the stories of Mirror Falls. Population 400? So that means at least 400 episodes? I sincerely hope!
So good!!
I don’t think I’ve been this happy and moved and invested in storytelling since I listened to vinyl Café.This is amazing. I am loving every episode. Can’t wait for more.
