The newest Juna peppermint mocha member today!
The lastest episode with J Kenji Lopez Alt finally pushed me to take a minute and join the patreon club (and write a review)! I am a looking forward to learn more about spices and cooking and can’t wait for the follow up episode. I have been listening for years and love all the information. Now as a patreon, I’m binging on all the past fantastic talk episodes (I’ve been missing out on so much!) Thanks for all the information and keep it coming! With your help, I continue to discover life long habits to help sustain a healthy body with manageable exercise and diet habits. Thank you!!
Educational and fun
If there was one podcast that every single person could benefit from, it would be FWNTT! I learn something with every episode. Juna and Eddie have a very easy way to communicate about food, health, and related issues. I have been a listener since day 1.
