Miranda Sawyer • The Guardian Nov 19, 2022

"(Series 2) Dunt and Lynskey get stuck into Rand’s work and life story for an hour, and it’s an enthralling and funny listen. Origin Story works best when Lynskey and Dunt are in full flow, bouncing off each other. Outside this, sometimes their links are gabbled, and Lynskey’s opening to this episode is a bit flat."
