Power Trip

322
Drama #163

My name is Jane, and I can make you do whatever I want. If you think I’m going to say ‘just kidding!’ think again. My wish is also my command. Being chronically ill means you have the best seat on the perpetual struggle bus. Thanks to the very sexy diagnosis of end-stage kidney disease I was always missing out: on my dream writing career, finding love (bah humbug, but one can hope…right?)…even literally missing my daily train to get to work because I’d trip and fall on my cane. Classic Jane: basketcase.  But thanks to a black-market kidney donation giving me mysterious powers, the tables have turned. Now I get drinks on the house, dates whenever I want them, writing opportunities that actually pay the bills… for the first time, people take me seriously. Because I make them. The downside? (There always is one.) Keeping the truth hidden. That’s where my new crew comes in: individually, we’re a bunch of freaks with secrets no one in our lives can know, but together, we’re the ones finally running the show.Power Trip is a Realm production starring Tatiana Maslany, written by Mary Hamilton, additional writing by Cara Horner, and featuring performances by Brendan Hines and Lisa Loeb. Listen Away.

    Fun, funny, good production, not like the rest!
    I love this because it is a bit like watching Oceans 8 and Charmed and … a dash of House MD (cane sounds, transplants) and I’m not sure what else but I realize I need to find more audio fictions like this! Too many role playing dice rolling story lines, and gory - descriptively gory crime shows. And I think I’ve heard 90% of the ones that aren’t that. So far I’ve found less than 15 with this upbeat vibe this across channels. The BBC makes most of them and Audible. So, I’m glad to find this. The cover image threw me off and I kept skipping over it. But, I’m glad I didn’t. The soundscape is great. Whoever did the audio production, is spot on. 🤩

    Loved it. I want more.
    I loved this podcast. Tatiana is amazing as always. The story was interesting and engaging. Just really well done.

    Very enjoyable listen
    Really enjoyed this realm contribution, including the centering of a disabled protagonist, and the outstanding voice acting by all. I found myself wanting a little more from the finale, but that’s a small complaint. I hope it returns for a second season.

    Interesting story
    First most - I absolutely love the actress and so would probably love anything she does - Orphan Black was awesome. This, of course, is a very different story but I found it quite enjoyable. The main character can be liked and disliked in the same episode. I enjoyed it.

    Interesting, BUT Stop the Unrelated Promos Please
    I found this show interesting and it help me on the edge of my seat. Based on the show itself, I would give it 4-5 stars. BUT, I had subscribed to many Realm podcasts, and I do not enjoy that they run preview episodes for new shows constantly on all of their shows, regardless of if they are even from a similar genre or type of story. If they were similar genre’s and types of stories, I would not mind. I would love to hear about a story that is similar to a shoe I like already. I do not want the same episode popping up multiple times in my podcast feed, especially when it’s a completely different type of story. This unfortunately has earned an unsubscribe across all the Realm podcasts I subscribe to after getting tired of this happening every week.

    quite good
    I am a huge fan of podcasts. This one falls into the top half (above average) category in my list. The story is a fun setup for *hopefully* future seasons that will expand on the characters further. This season served as a good introduction to a larger story. The most striking part of the series is the voice acting of Tatiana. Yes, she has been a talented actress. But I don’t think I realized just how great she is with her voice alone. She makes for a wonderful narrator, and she is able to convey her character’s thinking/feeling through very slight - but clear - variations in her delivery. It all comes across very naturally.

    Almost a Perfect Pod-Story
    I really wish that a story which starts strong & promises so much with these likable characters would actually give the audience what they deserve..MORE!! If there is going to be a season 2, then maybe let us know. If the last ep. I listened to was a wrap- then please indicate ‘The End’. I feel a bit ripped off. *HOWEVER, I feel that way because I loved the story, the voice acting & overall sound of this podcast story. Jane is the best kind of disaster - she’s relatable. *I get that Maslany is very talented (didn’t get a chance to check out Orphan Black) but I must admit that I didn’t need to hear her résumé to be pulled into listening to Power Trip. Announcing that she is “the star” is a cringy way to describe oneself. I enjoyed EVERYONE’S contribution of their talent in this story. Each voice actor did a fantastic job & the writing by Mary Hamilton & Cara Horner was great. Realm is a favorite of mine. I 🖤 stories like this that give us a break from all of the the apocalyptic & dystopian themes that seem to be in every other pod-story. The narrative in Power Trip is a perfect example that we don’t need the end of the world (or the aftermath) to be entertained.

    Worst promo ever
    Hi, I am an Emmy winning actress. Pro tip: Have someone else sing your praises. Doing it yourself is quite off putting.
  • RL7Five
    Tatiana…drink your own Kool-Aid much?
    Live for and support all the arts, but it’s exhausting listening to insufferable artists who feel they need to remind you of what they’ve “accomplished.” Pitching for a podcast you’re involved with by mentioning your bona fides is fine, but referring to yourself as “the star of”…is gross.
  • Mememe Ususus
    More please
    Such an interesting premise. Well developed. Please let there be many more episodes!
  • Nat2581
    Tatiana is amazing
    Just finished episode 8, I hope we get more! I would love to get to know the other group members and their powers!!
  • driven2review
    Great stuff!!!
    Love the podcast! Hate the dumb “I hate strong female protagonists” reviews looking to torpedo She-Hulk and this podcast.
  • Kool-Nerd
    Jane is a MESS Lol!
    I love how Tatiana plays the character: Jane is easy to love and also very easy to hate. I can’t say I wouldn’t do the exact same thing if I had powers like that lol! I also love the music choice on this project.
  • Kitten10182000
    Love anything Maslany
    This podcast doesn’t equal the depths of Maslany’s talent. But as a huge fan I will listen and support this project. As one who screamed when she won her unexpected but well deserved Emmy, I will always be waiting for another season of the Orphan Black podcast😍
  • bam526
    Maslany has appeal, but
    Her talents are wasted on such hackneyed, struggling to get relevant material. Realm needs new leadership — the content is awful
  • koomsies
    Intriguing
    There’s a fascination with seeing how far someone will go when they have “powers”. This has kept me guessing. Love it.
  • PowerGirl810
    Power Trip is amazing!!
    The story itself is very interesting so far. After listening to episode 3, I was a bit disappointed with how we didn’t get to learn more about how the other characters have powers. However, I know the podcast is fairly new and is only building up to a larger plot that maybe we don’t know about. I have always loved Tatiana Maslany’s work and this podcast really highlights her talent as a voice actress. She brings so much life and conflict to the character Jane. I’m really looking forward to the next episode!

    1 episode in, and couldn’t continue
    Typical mid aged female writer that has struggled in the dating world. First episode in, and they already dropped “mansplained” “patriarchy” etc..
  • ReviewLo7
    Easy, Fun Listen
    I binged this in a day and was disappointed it ended right when I felt it was hitting its stride. It brought out quite a few laughs and had a fun plot. Plus, the characters were endearing and really well acted.
  • Sam23jones
    Power Trip
    I absolutely love Tatiana Maslany! Especially from Orphan Black the TV show to Orphan Black the Next Chapter! So obviously I had to follow and listen to Power Trip and I have not been disappointed! It’s an amazing storyline and I just love everything about it, I wish I could give it more stars!
  • ily.g233
    Big fan! Love it!
    The show is great! It’s a wonderful blend of humor, fun, and some seriousness. The show feels realistic and is so vividly described. The portrayal of NYC is accurate, unlike many other fictional podcasts or stories I have listened to. Tatiana Maslany is a perfect narrator!!!
  • M210899
    LOVE!
    It’s such a fun story and Tatiana’s narration is 20/10 as always. Loved Jane’s chaotic energy, hope we get to know more of her story in a second season <3

    Tatiana literally never disappoints. This is a must listen for sure.
  • Tiffbon
    Very good.
    I really like it. I became a “+” member so I can binge it since I gave no patience’s to wait it out. IMHO this one is a good one.

    You Had Me at Tatiana Maslany
    Way different than anything I’ve listened to lately, and that’s a good thing. True, i was always going to listen to it (see above), but the storytelling definitely kept me excited for the next episode. I’m hoping that we get more than just this season.
  • Knittinggirl66
    Disappointed
    Love Tatiana, but the writing is tired, cliche, and dull. Too bad.

  • Princesssweetpea
    Loved it!!
    Such a fun show! great characters :)
  • Yagirlg702
    My new favorite podcast!!!
    If I had magic powers I would command more of this podcast!
  • Fred the Goatherder
    Absolutely terrific
    Tatiana Maslany has one of those “could listen to her read the phone book” voices for me, but lucky for us we get her acting in a full cast with a rollicking rock theme and immersive sound design. This one is a trip, one of my fave fiction shows I’ve heard this year
  • mmccluskey27
    Meg
    So fun!! Have loved listening to this
  • chel858543
    Worth a listen!
    Funny and well written. Love the storyline
  • rach-indoors
    TAT!
    God I love this woman. This character is already so so funny.
  • CarlaKovitz
    I want more!
    Really enjoyed the cast and would love more storylines I think you guys could take this cast, with their powers, and do so much with it. I know Realm doesn’t usually come out with various seasons but I think you should make this one of the few shows that you keep around. Thanks!! Ohh and by the way I am soooo thankful for all of the Realm podcasts!! I am never disappointed and always excited to see a new Realm production release. Keep doing what you do, bravo!
  • mollybbt
    Such a fun show. Cringe-y funny.
    Tatiana is fantastic and it’s great to hear the Lisa Loeb moment right away in Ep 1
  • Bubbels123
    Tatiana is amazing
    Give me ANYTHING with Tatiana in it and I’ll listen and watch as soon as it’s available. She’s an amazing actress. The story is great as well.
  • Cole123-
    This is so much fun to listen to
    Snarky and off-beat. I love.
  • Micoulte
    The Summer of Tatiana Maslany!
    Tatiana is back! So excited for this!!
  • MrKit5120
    Tatiana is a powerhouse!!!
    I could not love Tatiana Maslany more and she is freaking fabulous in Power Trip. Someone described this podcast as “fleabag with magic” and that’s totally right. It’s funny, edgy, well-written, incredible acting. I command you to do yourself a favor and listen to this great new show.
  • Audionerd33
    I am READY!
    I love Tatiana and I can already tell this is gonna be amazing. AHH!!! I can’t wait for episodes!
  • belovedgarden
    Thank you Realm!!
    Giving us more Tatiana, and with powers!! So excited for this one
  • TangoDuo
    I’m here for Tatiana!
    Can’t wait!! The trailer rocks, and I’m sure between this, She-Hulk, and the new Orphan Black in the works, I’m going to be up to my ears in greatness.
  • AKA Mae
    oh YEAH!
    How cool is it that Tatiana Maslany is collaborating with Realm on something completely original, after her amazing work on Orphan Black the Next Chapter? Power Trip sounds like a blast, and I can’t wait to hear the rest!
  • Karen, It's Me
    Finally!
    Been waiting for this since it was announced. Excited to hear more Tatiana and love the rest of the cast too!!!
  • loveisjust
    Hilarious dark comedy with Tatiana Maslany!!
    I’m already obsessed. The storytelling is so compelling, Tatiana is an amazing actress, and I’ve never laughed so much while in a full body cringe. Doesn’t disappoint!
