If you love behind-the-scenes documentaries of your favorite shows and movies, the <\/span>Writer Wrong<\/span><\/i> podcast may be perfect for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

It\u2019s an intriguing concept: the podcast story itself is sandwiched between commentary about the creation of the podcast. The creator and guest discuss the show points along with what was done well and what could have been done better.<\/span><\/p>\n

Then, to make it even more interesting, you, the listener, can weigh in on the story itself and even vote on the direction you want it to go. (It\u2019s similar to the \u201cchoose-your-own-ending\u201d books you may have read as a kid\u2014but maybe I\u2019m dating myself here.)\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

I\u2019ll say a few words on both components of this show:<\/span><\/p>\n

The audio drama is very well done. The actors are great, and the story is intriguing (there are actually multiple stories that span over a few episodes\u2014the first one takes place in an independent bookstore with some very shady activities). I definitely enjoyed it.<\/span><\/p>\n

The commentary is a little less compelling. I suspect it\u2019s because the interview format is actually not as easy as it initially seems, and there was some awkwardness. Being a both a good interviewer and a good interviewee is a skill\u2014one that takes practice.<\/span><\/p>\n

However, there are \u201cdirector cuts\u201d episodes, too, which are comprised of just the story without the commentary.<\/span><\/p>\n

Overall, definitely worth a listen.<\/span><\/p>\n
