Alice Isn’t Dead is a horror, sci-fi, podcast on YouTube, Castbox, etc. About the podcast and reviews, Hydrangea72 said, “There’s something about long road trips that create a certain atmosphere, and Alice Isn’t Dead captures that atmosphere perfectly. From quests for lost loves to large-scale conspiracies to zombie-like creatures, Alice Isn’t Dead has it all. (And this is coming from someone who specifically avoids anything that remotely involves zombies, so you know that this has to be amazing for me to love it so much). The interactions between the women on the show (because almost all of the important characters are women) are so rich and well-written.”

“The 20-minute episode immediately brings you into its weird, mysterious, world due to Nicole’s lilting, almost whispery narration. You feel her wonder and her fear of what she has encountered so far. And then the narration is also interrupted in fits and starts — it sounds like a CB radio abruptly cut off — that only intensifies the creepiness,” stated Revelist.com. 

As Wildcat.Arizona.edu agreed. “’Alice Isn’t Dead’ also enjoys toying with time and the concept of linear storytelling. The narrator will often be speaking, usually recounting some event that happened, and suddenly she will be cut off by static, sometimes right in the middle of her sentence. When she returns, it is as if the listener is picking up her CB radio signal from another place and time. She’ll be discussing something completely different, often addressing Alice directly. The static will return once she’s done and sometimes the listener will return to that moment before the static interrupted and it will be like no time passed. Other times, there will be things missing—a sentence, a few words, an entire scene—and the listener has to fill in the blanks. The nonlinear storytelling increases the mystery of the road trip and makes the listener wonder exactly how they are able to hear the narrator’s story at all.”

Since each episode is so short, there is always room for questions. This always fills the listener with curiosity. At the end of every episode, there is the same riddle, “Why did the chicken cross the road?” You must be thinking that it’s the same generic answer that everyone says out of annoyance. It’s not, but you have to wait to the next podcast to find out.
