Tea in the Sahara
Kev: Critic & Podcaster
As we wave goodbye to summer and embrace the arrival of autumn, I’ve got a review that’s as hot as the filling of a McDonald’s apple pie! Kris Kaiyala, the creative mind behind “Dirt an audio drama”, generously shared episode 1 of Season 4 for an early listen on Tea in the Sahara. Now, I’m here to share early thoughts on the final season of Dirt, which officially drops for everyone on the 3rd of October.
Since this isn’t my first rodeo reviewing Dirt, I’ll link all my previous reviews of this incredible audio drama at the end of this mini review.
This episode, (chapter 22), delivers the precise audio quality Dirt fans have all come to expect, with rich background ambience, room tones, and the stunning Seattle landscape setting the scene. Audio within Dirt put simply hits differently. As a Brit, Kris continues to humbly capture US locations that makes me want to visit and explore them myself.
This season around, the focus shifts back to the treasure hunt trail first laid out by Aimo way back in season one. As the show continues with its signature blend of redirection and misdirection, by season 4, all the characters are becoming more fleshed out, making this episode a true pleasure to listen to. However, I do recommend a recap of previous episodes, as a podcast such as this is filled with moving parts and recurring plot twists. One thing Kris, as a massive James Bond fan myself I’m still left wondering—what exactly is a Sean Connery hat?
From a brief ankle-flash teaser it’s tough to predict the vibe of the next ten episodes that will follow, and the ongoing shenanigans for lead character Joseph Elo. One thing is for sure, knowing Kris, he definitely will have an ace up his sleeve as he wraps up this EPIC treasure hunt series. So, hop on the “Dirt” mystery audio train with your trusty Coinmaster for its finale season – with new episodes dropping roughly every month.
Thank you once again, Kris, for thinking of me and sending over this exclusive episode to listen to ahead of launch day. Best of luck with this final season fella I know you will smash it!
