The guy on this show is really annoying. They both have something against air fryers which are really good to use in the kitchen. Maybe they should try one out.
Podcast Addict28 months agopodjaygee- Tarik just whines
Seems like every episode Tarik just whines and whines throughout episodes
And the pronunciation of “inneresting” instead of “interesting”

United States2 years ago - Difficult to listen to
I can’t tell if Tarik is trying to be funny and his jokes don’t land or if he really is just not very nice. After just a few episodes it is evident he is jealous of others’ success and opportunities. Ann pulls this podcast; well organized and knowledgeable. A poor pairing of hosts that makes this difficult to listen to despite the interesting content for MKE foodies!
Apple Podcasts3A Poor PairingUnited States2 years ago - Great and awful
I have read about Tarik’s accomplishments in other areas. On this show, he is just terrible. Ann is a great writer; has wonderful outlook on the food scene. He has pretty useless observations and I often want to ask him to go do an errand so Ann can just handle the podcast herself. Hasn’t she satisfied her community service requirement?
Apple Podcasts3WiscMusicManUnited States3 years ago - Good content but....
Love hearing about all the food related things in Milwaukee. The length of the show is great as well. BUT you can tell the hosts hate each other. I can hear the eye rolls when they try to banter and it’s not a fun tension either. This show needs two hosts who actually enjoy their jobs.
