About this listen
When the evidence points to two realities, which will you believe?
Two astronomers have detected a strange, pulsing signal from deep space. Within hours, the US government goes into lockdown, restricting airspace and scrubbing scientific data. Was the signal an intercepted communication revealing alarming plans for an enemy’s military strike? Or has humanity at long last found proof of extraterrestrial life?
Caught between two mind-blowing possibilities, Dr. Veronica Chapel leaves her job as a high school science teacher to search for answers with her old friend Malcolm Feldman, a determined journalist, and Ada Park, a brilliant astronomer. Oh, and it also happens to be Dr. Chapel's one chance to redeem her destroyed scientific reputation, no pressure...
As the group digs deeper, they uncover layers of mystery that challenge their grasp of the universe and their place in it. With time running out and the world hanging in the balance, they must navigate a tangled web of corporate secrets, government interference, and ethical dilemmas on a high-stakes journey to uncover a truth that will upend our understanding of the cosmos—and ourselves.
The Signal is directed, edited, and scored by Mark Henry Phillips.

Awesome.
Had me hooked by the second chapter. Very Interesting story, interesting commentary on the world. All of the characters and their interactions were super enjoyable. Paget Brewster’s Voice acting is incredible. (Mild spoiler warning) I really enjoyed the part where the main character (Veronica) is just gushing about space, that felt very genuine and was lovely to listen to. The ending felt somewhat anticlimactic but actually in a positive way, It felt human and overall just nice.

It had potential.
Overall I enjoyed this short, but fast paced story. I felt that the production was very good. I felt that this story deserved a better ending.

Short but great story
Having a production including Gabriel Urbina and Sarah Shachat (yes, from Wolf 359), is all I needed to know. Highly recommended.

too short!
I admittedly love long podcast story series or uber long novels and I was atracted to this book with a compelling synposis. The story is well written and paced. Excelent story progression with hintend exposition well blended with story, I felt sad when the book ended and wondered if it could be the start or a longer tale with more twists.

Entertaining story, solid voice actors
This is a rather short entertaining story, in my opinion this isn't science fiction but rather something like a mystery or a simple fiction. The ending can't keep up with the good start and felt a bit stale.
Overall ok to listen to when a part of your mind is occupied with other tasks.

Excellent performance and production
Strong start, excellent production values and fantastic voice actors.
This started really strong and about halfway through I think it just fell off and went in an admittedly unpredictable direction, but it felt flat. Disappointing ending and it felt a tad preachy
Wasn’t the worst audiobook I’ve listened to this year though

Very Good
Narration and music was brilliant. Story was brilliant and had a really strong start but the ending was meh and some parts were a little cliché and had me rolling my eyes.
