Customer Reviews
Good podcast
In general I like the show! Some parts of the episodes are very slow but others are interesting! I suspect this may be based on your interest. I like the history and timeline but get bored with a lot of the other components. Sometimes they get of track with things I don’t care about but it is worth it to wait for the good parts!
A fun, nerdy type of podcast
I love this show. This is not your standard type of food show, and definitely not a cooking show. If you dig history, nerding out on subjects, side tracks, and so on, you should love this show. It has a down to earth feel. You may find yourself craving all different kinds of things.
One of my favorite podcasts
Love the research and humor. I’ve been listening for years and they always make me smile.
