An incompetent angel is running a podcast, and you are an unsuspecting prophet. Hosted by Enoch – the Metatron, archangel and voice of God. One of a kind, he is the only mortal to have been employed by God and turned into an angel. Now his main job is to report on important and historical events, broadcasting these to mortal prophets across spacetime. Come along on his journey as he quickly forgets primitive concepts like the linear progression of time, and tries to discover what it means to be a multidimensional entity made of nightmares and forced hope.

”BE NOT AFRAID! I will try to speak to you in a way that you will understand, using a human language of your current historical dialect. We first tried the method of just beaming our message directly into your minds, but we did not expect the absolute carnage as so many heads burst like old lightbulbs."

Science is introduced to humanity too early, too quickly, as a group of angels fall in love with humans and have children together. In the middle of all the chaos, a man gets a job offer from God that he can’t refuse.

Content warnings: non graphic mention of head explosion, decapitation, violence.

Delightful series, 10/10 would commit WARFARE to recreate events that lead the creator to the making of this show! This has just the right amount of comedic genius, which is absurdly apparent once you hear God say yeet.
