    I listen to a lot (a LOT) of cooking and food podcasts. I didn’t expect to like this podcast all that much-what a sleeper it turned out to be!

    I love the hosts and their casual “chats”. I feel like I’m sitting at their kitchen table. It’s now the first episode I turn to in my library of podcasts.

    Keep up the great work, John, Megan and Shannon!!

  • Great to sleep to

    This is one of the most boring podcasts hosted by the most boring people imaginable. I save up the episodes to lull myself to sleep. No one cares about what boring people are cooking each other for dinner, but it is a sure fire cure for insomnia.
