This podcast has influenced my cooking and my thinking about food, but I would probably still listen even if it didn... more
Apple Podcasts5Professor DaveUnited States5 months ago - Good, when there’s new content
A great program, but new content is limited. Too many re-runs.
Apple Podcasts3I dream of cheese 2.0United States6 months ago - Fallen out of Love
A loyal, longtime listener who fell out of love after far too many re-aired episodes. Not unusual over the past three or four years to hear the same holiday episode that had been aired the year before and the year before that—and the year before that. Disappointed to no longer look forward to this podcast
