Customer Reviews
Fun listen!
Smart Mouth has me laughing out loud and learning something new every episode - which is a rare combo! Big fan of Katherine and the guests that she has on. Everyone brings such a unique perspective.
A Food Lover/History Lover’s Haven
I found this podcast through Alie Ward, host of Ologies, and have since been unable to separate from it! I anxiously await every new episode, salivating by the end and full of knowledge and nostalgia. Learning about the history and colonization behind our most iconic dishes/ingredients, hearing the ways the host and guests pronounce or name regional/foreign dishes, and getting a glimpse of what (mainly) shapes North America’s (sometimes ignored) rich and vibrant culinary cultural heritage makes this so worth indulging in!
Excellent foodie podcast
Fun foodie podcast with a good mix of history, humor, and the guests’s personal experiences.
