Favorite podcast, hands down!

I absolutely love this podcast. My family and friends don’t share my love of food and the experiences around eating and cooking and this podcast allows me an outlet where I can listen, learn and relate to likeminded individuals. Geoffrey, your interview skills are spot on and I love the questions you ask to get your guests to open up and relive memorable parts of their lives.
