Deadly Manners: A Podcast Experience, produced by Shudder, is a thrilling audio drama that transports listeners back to the 1950s. The show stars a talented and star-studded cast including LeVar Burton and Kristen Bell among others. The podcast is a must-listen for thriller enthusiasts who enjoy a mix of suspense, horror, and dark comedy.

The story of Deadly Manners takes place at a dinner party hosted by the wealthy Billings family. Amidst the icy cold winter, the family and their friends - mostly fellow socialites, gather together for a night of food, drink, and entertainment. However, things take a turn for the worst when a murder occurs on the premises, plunging everyone into a state of fear and suspicion.

Listeners are immediately drawn in by the dramatic narration with an eerie and slightly off-beat soundtrack accompanying it. The audio quality is top-notch with crisp, clear audio that brings the listener fully into the scene. As the story progresses, listeners are treated to a story filled with witty and smart dialogue, well-placed humor, and intense moments of tension that keeps them hooked.

The show features a range of unique and compelling characters, each with their own motives, secrets, and moral compass. The character mix includes an overbearing publicist, a fortune teller, a chef, a housekeeper, and even the famous actress Kristen Bell herself. Each character has its own distinct personality that is brought to life by the talented cast of voice actors.

LeVar Burton, famous for his role in Reading Rainbow and Star Trek, takes on the role of the polite and unassuming butler - somewhat of an observer character who takes part in the unfolding events at the dinner party. Burton's voice brings a sense of calm to the storm that is the party, and his observations and comments carry a lot of weight throughout the plot.

Kristen Bell plays a character who is more involved in the plot, as she takes on the role of the inspiring and gorgeous hostess of the party. Bell's performance displays a great range of emotions - from charming and delightful to egotistical and deceitful - as her character becomes more prominent in the plot.

Overall, Deadly Manners is a masterful audio drama. The show is both a homage to the classic Agatha Christie murder mysteries and a play on the genre - the show's clever direction and sharp writing make for a unique and thoroughly enjoyable journey. With just six episodes, Deadly Manners is a binge-worthy podcast that keeps listeners guessing until the end as to who the murderer could be.

The production value is impressive, with sound effects and music that keep the listener engaged and immersed in the world of the show. Every scene is well-placed, and the pacing of the story is fantastic - listeners are always kept on their toes, never knowing what's going to happen next.

All in all, Deadly Manners: A Podcast Experience is a triumph in the podcasting world. The show's production, direction, writing, and acting all combine to create a thoroughly immersive and exciting listening experience. If you're a fan of the murder mystery genre, this show is an absolute must-listen, and with its short length, it's a perfect way to spend a few hours immersing yourself in a well-crafted story.
