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

Ahem, full Welsh) and how Dubai (despite being one of the most high tech cities in the world) doesn't actually have a functional address system!

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

Throughly Enjoyable!

Ridiculously funny

I always look forward to new episodes of Cooking with Grief! The hosts routinely make me laugh out loud while also at times teaching me new things. Chris and Chris seem like a couple of guys who’d be a ton of fun to hang out with, but simply listening to their podcast is a good substitute;-)

More Clever Than You Can Handle

If you're not listening, you're doing it wrong. No like literally, you cannot eat, touch, smell, or see a podcast per se. There's no wit like British wit, and these guys are full of it in every way possible. More funny than you can handle. But don't let that stop you. I feel like I'm digging a deeper hole the more I talk here JUST GO LISTEN!
