Critical reception
editThe Guardian described This is Love as "beautifully paced, with memorable details."[2] USA Today wrote, "Like Criminal, This Is Love is a careful combination of interviews, music and Judge's narration that makes for a seamless and satisfying listening experience. But the new show has a different tone: It's warmer."[3] New York Magazine said "Fans should expect the team to apply the same expansive, thoughtful, and near-anthropological approach to the lighter subject of love."[1] Refinery29 called it a "warm, story-based podcast to listen to when the news is too much to bear."[4] Entertainment Tonight called it "an intriguing must-listen."[5]
