We take America's Test Kitchen's inquisitive and relentless approach to telling unexpected, funny, and thought-provoking narratives about food and drink. This is not a recipe show. And this is not a show about celebrity chefs or what they like to eat. Proof plunges into history, culture, science, and the psyche to uncover the hidden backstories that feed your food-obsessed brain. Hosted by Kevin Pang. A production of America's Test Kitchen.

Customer Reviews
Love the new hoist, Kevin Pang
I love his soothing voice and the storytelling. But why do the credits still say Bridget is the host when she’s been replaced by Kevin?
More storytelling by Kevin Pang, please!
HAPPY
Listening to your podcasts is so uplifting and positive. Truly inspiring and beautifully delivered.. Thank you 🙏
Go back to the original style of the podcast
I thought it was just me but after reading the reviews it seems I’m not alone in dislike of the recent format where people are reading their essays….and reading them in a robot monotone.
ATK usually does everything in a top notch way so the quality of this podcast is surprising.
Sometimes I can get past the monotone if the content is interesting, but sometimes I just turn it off.
I used to love listening when it first started with Bridget doing the narrative. Would love if Kevin could take this up again.
