'This Is Love' is made by the same team that makes 'Criminal', a show that we featured on The Podcast Hour a few months' back. 'Criminal' tells true stories about right and wrong, and how to tell the difference. And the subject matter of 'This Is Love' is no less broad or ambitious: it investigates the mystery of love in all its endless variety. The show returned with a second season of stories last week, starting with 'How To Live Forever'. It's a very modern story about the development of a lifelike robot called Bina 48 that's modelled on a real woman, which one day could offer us the prospect of a kind of digital immortality. We play some of 'How To Live Forever'- Episode 7 of 'This Is Love' hosted by Phoebe Judge, who co-created it with Lauren Spohrer, and the show is produced by Nadia Wilson and mixed by Rob Byers.
