Midnight Burger

897

When Gloria took a waitressing job at a diner outside of Phoenix, she didn't realize she was now an employee of Midnight Burger, a time-traveling, dimension-spanning diner. Every day Midnight Burger appears somewhere new in the cosmos along with it's staff: a galactic drifter, a rogue theoretical physicist, a sentient old-timey radio, and some guy named Caspar. No one knows who built Midnight Burger or how it works, but when it appears there's always someone around who could really use a cup of coffee. "When the waves of the universe crash unrelentingly, when the stars seem indifferent to your plight, suddenly there is a diner." We open at 6.

    Obsessed
    I’ve never written a review for a podcast or been so obsessed with one. I listen to A LOT of podcasts but this one is hands down my favorite of all time. The writing and voice acting is amazing. The story just keeps getting better. I hope it never ends.

    Great stories
    Such a great story. I’m so glad I found it.

    Can’t stop listening
    I am hooked , so many different plot lines to follow. Just found this shoe and frantically worried about catching up.
  • Steveinfranklin
    Excellent Storyline and Voice Acting
    This is a plug to do my small part to help get this outstanding Podcast more of the attention and audience it deserves. Excellent & Clever Writing, Storytelling and what to me sounds like first class character acting really brings everything together- I thank you for many, many hours of entertainment and can only hope for many more.

    Favorite show!
    Midnight Burger checks all of the boxes I wasn't even looking for: silly, space-based, fun, wholesome adventures with the best, fully fleshed out characters, while somehow incorporating all the nostalgic parts of growing up Christian without any of the hate and judgment that comes with it. Every character is endearing and redeemable to an extent, and the bonus content is worth the money! Definitely worth listening to if you need a little renewed faith in humanity.

    Def would recommend
    I love this podcast and can’t wait for each episode to come out. Definitely would recommend. My only complaint is with Episode 35. Was there a contest to see how many F bombs and other swears could be used??? It really detracted from the story and I had to turn it off because it was NSFW. Hoping to get some free time to come back to it. And hoping that this is not foreshadowing for future episodes.
  • Swirlfire
    Phenomenal
    My brother shared this to me and I was immediately, these stories deserve to be a show, or an animated series.
  • RJ_Mouse
    True theatre for the mind’s imagination.
    This should be a TV or movie series. Seriously, this could be bigger than than Dr. YouKnowWho.
  • Stacy49
    Love this so much!
    This show is truly incredible. I’ve enjoyed all the twists and turns there’s been. It’s so different and feels like a breath of fresh air. It’s so much fun listening to it. It’s the best part of my mornings. The character building is incredible. My favorite episode has to be in season 3 episode Maul of America. So well written and executed. Almost finished with Season 3. Excited to start Season 4.
  • Mz Peach Hawkins
    Like no other!
    I have yet to find another show that keeps me engaged as this one does’ from the great story line to action packed sounds. This show has kept me glued to my speakers.
  • Chaaa masta
    The best!
    I’ve listened to hundreds of hours of stories and MB is the best one so far! Wish release dates were better.
  • K8spad3
    Please happen!
    I really wish this would turn into a tv show. I’d watch it a million more times!
  • brooooose
    A fun, light hearted, masterfully written space tale!
    Think I’m on round 3 of listening through the show…absolutely fantastic and a true listening treat!! An 80’s baby, I fall asleep to Friends & HIMYM…midnight burger is the equivalent to that for my nodes during the day! Listening through 2nd & 3rd rounds are wonderfully surprising with tidbits you most certainly miss the first time around!! 5 stars and keep it coming! #evathehottesttheoreticalphysicistiveneverseen
  • CKHTLA
    One of the greats. Seriously.
    Midnight Burger is one of those rare pieces of media that’s astonishing in both concept and execution. I could go on about the impeccable writing, the heart-wrenching performances, or the delightful worldbuilding. But what’s most remarkable about it is something rare–something I’ve only ever witnessed once before. Midnight Burger is the kind of story people rally around. It doesn’t just bring people together; listening to it makes you feel whole. It’s hard not to come out of it feeling a little braver, and wanting to be a little kinder. (And if you’re on the fence during season 1, keep going. Things’ll heat up soon.)
  • AKAbbey4
    An Instant Favorite
    Midnight Burger is just great. If you’re waiting for a sign to start listening, just DO it. It has one of my favorite comedic lines of any audio drama, and it’s just filled with great humor, sci fi shenanigans, and lots of touching resolutions. I love the characters and how much they’ve grown through the seasons so far. I hope it never ends, but when it inevitably does I know they’ll end it right
  • pastelblacc
    Thanks a bunch!

  • Erica B. Forever
    You need to listen to this show
    I started this show a few months ago and was instantly hooked. I love how every season is different. If you really like syfy you will love this show.
  • L154MMAB
    A must listen to podcast - don’t miss out
    I’m fairly new to podcasts and happened upon Midnight Burger…best per chance watch ever…great characters, great storyline, and amazing actors. Couldn’t even try to pick a favorite…whatever you are watching now, stop and watch! I can’t wait for season 4!
  • MightyFrankman
    Yep…..
    This podcast has ruined me for other. Without question, I’m hooked and I can’t find anything else out there that even comes close. From likable relatable characters, to a fantastic cast and amazing guest actors, great writing and fun character interactions. Never once been disappointed. A million laughs and fantastic….. well, everything! Yep, this podcast has definitely ruined me for every other podcast out there
  • PurpleSocksInTheDark
    I want to be carried away by owls
    Witty, fun, and charming. I want to have pocket-sized versions of the characters so I can carry them around with me everywhere. It's definitely a show that gets better and better every season.
  • CLtheGR8
    Just THE BEST there is!!!
    I honestly don’t know how this isn’t the most popular podcast series around! This show is really one of a kind! Funny, exciting, heartwarming, and best of all ADDICTIVE! Also this show is really one of the few things I can share with all of my kids. I have 24/22/12/10/8 and we all love Midnight Burger. We all get so excited for new episodes
  • Kylee_ak
    All Time Favorite!
    A funny, thought-provoking, make you laugh, make you cry, mysterious, a little bit of history, a lot of science, full cast of characters, light-hearted but always intriguing podcast that has a little/lot of everything. It’s at the top of my list of all time best podcasts.
  • ThiaM28
    A heartwarming, absurdist trans-dimensional gem
    This show is mind blowing. At first it feels quirky and fun, kinda giving early Welcome to Nightvale vibes, but sci-fi. It never loses that quirk, but as the actors find their characters more fully and become more comfortable together, the show really blossoms. I routinely forget I’m not literally watching these episodes, because the acting/sound design/engineering is so perfectly executed. Each season is new and fresh, with concepts that are so genius they give me the chills. Honestly, I’ve grown so attached to the show, it’s the podcast I currently fall asleep to. Something about s2e2 makes my brain happy like how I imagine people like asmr. Thank you so much. I can’t wait to hear how s4 unfolds!!
  • Laniereads
    Reels you in
    I didn’t get introduced to the show until early 2024. It was awesome to be able to binge the first three seasons. With each episode, I enjoyed the show more and more to the point that I missed having the characters in my ears while I waited for season four. Keep the episodes coming! Super excited for what’s next.
  • Toesef
    Great show
    Tired of having to wait fired shows you tease us with subscriber only content
  • EverBethany
    Comic Sci-Fi with Compelling Core
    Update: How does this show keep getting better??! Ep 1 of Season 4 had some of my favorite moments yet! I’m in love with the warmth and zaniness of this show. Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy meets The Good Place type of semi-satire with a lovable cast of characters (even the most prickly) and some great questions both for the characters personally and the narrative to keep you listening.
  • AnnaPodFan
    Fangs Out!!
    Cannot express how good and funny this podcast is. Enjoyed Midnight Burger so much that I’ve re-listened to the available episodes multiple times. Thank you for making this truly memorable show.
  • Nick8031
    Very entertaining

  • corje77
    Much LOVE
    Man this has been such an amazing and. Interesting journey thank you guys and gals for all your hard works we appreciate this amazing show
  • TJinLOCA
    Wild, witty, and wonderful
    A crazy journey through space and time with some bizarre characters and also a few completely normal folks that are just handling things as best as they can. It’s delightful. Update for season 4: Midnight Burger keeps getting better with every season. There are very few comedy podcasts where I care so much about the characters that they make me cry, but this one pulls it off. I can’t wait for each new episode.
  • potato🤗
    I love this show so much
    This is honestly my new comfort show. I found it while I was on the verge of a depression episode and this show was absolutely everything I needed. It’s funny, it’s heartwarming, sometimes it’s sad, and it always ends with my two favorite radio host telling me that when I feel down or alone, midnight burger will be out there looking for me. And while it may be fiction, the thought of the possibility that midnight burger can show up is really comforting. So yeah, I really love this show, and if you haven’t already, you should totally give it a listen.

    Incredible
    This is the first podcast I checked out before it was big, (you may know me as the guy in the ox skull) and I hope it keeps on growing, sincerely, Midnight Burger’s greatest fan since the start! PS. I’m looking forward to the possible arcs of season 4! -Guy In The Ox Skull
  • extraterrestrialjess
    My favorite podcast
    This podcast has got me through so much- it is the best - The characters are so lovable. Needless to say I’m very attached to them. I hope this podcast never ends. My projects at home like seem to fly by because I’m just working away and listening enjoying my time. Midnight burger makes life better.

    Love the science and the humor!
  • silv3rshaft
    so good
    I’ve listened to a lot of fiction podcasts at this point, and this is one of the best. The sound design, voice acting, plot twists, everything is top-notch. But what really blew me away was the writing. The dialogue is funny, smart, interesting, and even beautiful at times…and unique in a way that I’ve never seen exhibited by any form of media! Give it a listen, you won’t regret it.
  • theLIBERTYRANGER
    Best yet!! 11 stars out of 5!
    I listen to these podcast all the time and I have to say this is likely one of the most enjoyable ones that I have ever heard. If they gave 10 stars this would get 11 but they only give five and that’s all I can give you guys congratulations job well done! Also, thank you for leaving all the WOKENESS out. It made it something that I could listen to from the beginning to the end the subtleties that were in there of left leaning culture we’re just that, subtle, it was enjoyable, thank you.
  • Labpc85
    Best show ever
    I have never found a audio show I loved more. I’ve laughed, cried, and felt all the emotions with all the characters. I love the story, the voices, the twists and turns. I lost myself in this show and was sad when I binged it all. I can’t wait for more. I could see this as an actual tv series. I highly recommend you go on a trip with midnight burger you won’t regret it!!!!!!!
  • Fawndoooozer
    Accidental Favorite
    I came across this show by accident and have never been more pleased. Phenomenal writing, acting and storyline. I have ignored all of my favorite weekly podcasts binging this crazy entertaining show. It’s thoughtful, intelligent, hilarious and engaging. Hurry up! They open at 6!!!!
  • Breeeeeeee3V
    Cannot stop listening
    I am a fanatic about this show. I listen to this while I work and it makes my day so much more pleasant. The voice acting and sound quality is amazing along with the story lines and connections to real life things. Makes fictional stories feel like they could be happening right alongside you
  • abbykinsssssssss
    Pretty much basically the best ever
    I listen to a lot of fiction podcasts. So far, this one is the best. Please give it a listen. The sound design is 10/10. The voice acting is 100/10. And the writing is 10000/10. They have created characters that I want to root for. They are funny and deep and remarkably human. I hope the writers and actors know how thankful we are.
  • rissyriss123456789
    First story podcast
    I’m a big podcast person but have only ever done the traditional format- nothing fiction or storytelling. I feel bad for every other fiction podcast that this was my first taste! The bar is high. So fun to listen to and I find myself laughing out loud quite a bit. Will be recommending to friends.
  • MW🎨
    Really captivating
    I had been searching for a good podcast that would help me quiet my mind and be able to have a moment of distraction and peace. This show made it possible, both funny and interesting, offers a new and exciting story. A big Thanks to the producers and a sign for other listeners to follow the show. (At least the first episodes that I have listened to rock
  • Galivan Peak Kelly
    Smart, funny, and heartwarming!
    Wow, what a gem of a story!! The characters are relatable and funny. The creativity involved is epic. This is the kind of story that makes you feel like you are a better person from hearing it. It's about relationships, humanity, love, friendship, and the big ideas of the nature of the universe and the mystery of consciousness. All presented in a silly, and easy to listen to entertaining story. I loved it! A very surprising treat!

    Byron Chronicles
    Midnight Burger is an Outstanding show! Finally something on par with The Byron Chronicles
  • IdeaRanch
    Best Scripted Comedy in all of Podcastland!
    (Podcasthood? Podcastship? Podcasticism?) I listen to lots of podcasts. Mostly comedy, some improv and some scripted; some sci-fi/adventure, some drama …. I’ve been at it since my first clickwheel iPod (it had a spinning hard drive in it! Google it, kids!). IOW, I’ve heard lots. Over a long, long time. Never ever have I left a review before. (“Someone else will …”) But I love this show too much not to say it out loud. The writing … the acting … the sound design and production values … holy smokes, you guys. Midnight Burger strikes this amazing balance between laugh-out-loud moments (literally laughing out loud, attracting stares) and incredible character development. You’ll genuinely come to care about these people and their time-traveling, dimension-spanning diner. So much heart. So much talent. It’s so good you’ll feel guilty listening for free. (At least I did … that’s why I joined their Patreon.) Listen to it. Just … listen. If I could leave a six-star review, I would.
  • Movie nerd 27
    I love this show
    It is clear this is the best show available to listen and enjoy yourself with. I can’t wait to see what amazing new stories come out after season 3 keep up the good work. Cast and writers are amazing!!!!!!
  • Auntie Isha
    Totally love this show!
    I stumbled on to this show a while back, and in the time since I’ve listened to the entire podcast series at least 3 times. I’ve looked for other shows to listen to while waiting for the next season of midnight burger but none of them are as good. Hands down best fiction podcast around!
  • halitosis
    The best
    Midnight burger is hands down better than any television show or podcast that I’ve seen or heard. There are roughly 720 hours in the month and unfortunately only 2 hours of midnight burger.
