I just stumbled on this somehow and it is an absolute golden nugget! I’m loving every episode. Thanks for the interviews and little nuggets for living life more organized in general.
In a world of so many food podcasts, I could tell from my first episode this one will stand out. Can’t wait to explore them all. Highly recommended. And I can’t get the term “busy brain” out of my head. In a good way.
Catherine’s perspective stands out among the sea of podcast. Her joyful, honest, experienced voice guides her guests in conversation that goes beyond food. These chats tackle the relationship between our minds and feeding ourselves delicious morsels.
Great interviews with knowledgeable and creative food people.
I’ve missed seeing Catherine on Milk Street. Great to now have her in my ear sharing interesting stories and helpful insight. Really enjoy the podcast.
