Cooking With Grief is a podcast where two glorious morons share facts, stories and titbits they've found interesting, an internet Show & Tell. Topics range from science to history to current events, and pretty much anything else, all discussed and dissected with complete irreverence and absolutely no desire to be serious. The facts are sound, the understanding is tenuous, and the jokes - well, that's subjective. Enjoy!

"A witty and unique podcast on current events and the world around us."
- Chris & Chris

"This is completely banal and you're wasting your time."
- Our mothers

"Who the hell are you and why are you talking to me?"
- Random guy on the street

    Get your cheese rolls ready, it's a Kiwi special!

Hilarious and informative (kind of).

Very funny and informative podcast on a wide range of topics.

If you only subscribe to one comedy podcast...you’ve probably got better things to do.
