10 best podcasts of 2018: WOODEN OVERCOATS and THE AMELIA PROJECT

WOODEN OVERCOATS, the podcast created by DAVID K. BARNES, has been listed in the top ten podcasts of 2018 by both the Irish Times and Vulture Magazine.

Sarah Griffin, of the Irish Times, writes:

“For fiction, I loved Wooden Overcoats, a comedy about a fictitious island in the English Channel in which two funeral homes, and their funeral directors, compete for popularity within their community. It is most often the first podcast I recommend to people: funny and strange and exquisitely written and performed: and importantly, entirely independent.”

Nicholas Quah at Vulture praised Season 3’s “gloriously mischievous sensibility and a charming cast of daffy characters”.
