“When you sit down and listen to “PRIVATE IVY”, it feels like you’re listening to an old-fashioned radio drama or the more modern podcast dramas of today. It is filled with the right amount of comedic dialogue and hardboiled noir to keep the listener hooked. The performances of all the voice actors were delightful and charming. It is the type of experience that one would want to share with their friends and family.”
