“It was such joy that you let an ex-liberal talk about his road to conservatism. I kept waiting for the story to take a turn. I’m just thankful it didn’t.”

“I wish there was a bit more description for each episode because I am a pretty sensitive listener and there’s some content I just can’t handle. I want to listen to more episodes but I am apprehensive! A few I have had to stop partway through!”

“Why do you give like a three word summary of each episode?! and how come since airing points of egress I don’t know what’s real and what’s not —while you may say that’s the point — but for me I only l only enjoy non fiction so it seems very cruel to have us doubt the validity of each episode -...”Read full review »

“I love Love + Radio, brilliantly unique story telling and great production. However, I find it hugely frustrating that episodes are being marked as new when they’re actually years old. I listened way back when they were all on Radiotopia, then I paid for a Luminary sub (just for this pod really)...”Read full review »

“Dude needs a better mic… And a producer.
If you have a producer- fire him. then have him arrested. there must be laws against production that is this poor.
The episode descriptions sound intriguing, and the small bits that I can make out sound kinda interesting. But come on!!!”

“The podcast is “back” after a long hiatus but just replaying old episodes. It makes no sense. I’ll click on the next one but that’s it—if it is more recycled material I’m out.”

“I really love listing to Love and Radio. It’s so delightfully weird and it touches on some things that people are so passionate about. That they love. Each episode transports me to a different world.
And the sound design and audio mix are always perfect. Never any harsh cuts from soft to loud....”Read full review »

“Strange discordant ‘music’ throughout, often partially drowning out the speaker, and which rarely seems to fit the intended mood of the piece. One story will begin, but is then interrupted by a new narrator with a different story. The beginning of an episode may be vague to the point where it...”Read full review »

“The first episodes are mostly filled with men and a disappointingly juvenile at first. And as one other reviewer said, full of virtue-signaling. Also this podcast is very white and it shows. However, as the show went on, I think there was a shift — after the first 15 or so episodes, the tone the...”Read full review »
