Edward Wickham • Church Times • Aug 9, 2024
"Even your reviewer — who is categorically not in the core demographic — can appreciate why the childhood chums Lily Allen and Miquita Oliver have attracted such a devoted audience. Cheeky and chatty, the two never seem fatigued by the relationship."

"...Allen and Oliver know their stuff. Miss Me? is instantly likeable and pairs perfectly with a glass of white wine. …"
Score: 4.5
Patricia Nicol • The Times UK • Apr 21, 2024
"...the women own their privilege and failures as defiantly as some notable successes. Allen, who is now recording in Nashville (the first album she has made sober), speaks ruefully...They both have largely absent or errant fathers, but speak with moving admiration of their mothers...From Allen especially, there is robust opinion on topics such as sexual fulfilment and female success."
Score: 4.5
Miranda Sawyer • The Guardian • Mar 23, 2024
"...it’s a complete hoot. Miss Me? is, if we’re being technical, a teeny bit of a mess. Topics arrive and are dismissed, talked around, then recalled...Their anecdotes are intimate and hilarious. There will be many out-of-context clips from this podcast because Allen has always been tabloid catnip, but to get the true and full delight of it, listen to the actual shows."
