Gastropod
Food with a side of science and history. Every other week, co-hosts Cynthia Graber and Nicola Twilley serve up a brand new episode exploring the hidden history and surprising science behind a different food- or farming-related topic, from aquaculture to ancient feasts, from cutlery to chile peppers, and from microbes to Malbec. We interview experts, visit labs, fields, and archaeological digs, and generally have lots of fun while discovering new ways to think about and understand the world through food.

Who knew….about a variety of topics.

We listen to this podcast while driving and are always amazed at what we learn. They dig deep and make every topic interesting and relevant. The research is in depth and not fluff. The interview experts are well chosen. I have recommended this to friends and they are equally impressed. Can’t wait to read Nicola’s book after listening to her podcast.

Speaking style is unlistenable for me
Sep 24
Love the topics, but part of a good podcast is that it’s pleasant to hear. Are they intellectualizing themselves out of normal, everyday talking? One example—words like city and sitting are spelled with “t”s, but we pronounce them like “d”s. The hosts do sharp “t”s and it sounds strange enough to be distracting. The tone and cadence feels off too.
No escape from politics

If you wanted a good podcast, keep looking. Left wing complaints about political leaders from the 80’s? In a podcast about ketchup? Give me a break.
