  • My favourite podcast!

    Wonderful podcasts and guests - I particularly loved the Jamie Oliver episode - two friends chatting and it was so revealing; I remember he got so much flak from so many chefs when he was scouted for TV because he was so young but what no one realised was the knife skills he had and how good he was at pasta, spoken about in the episode. Each one really gets under the skin, such a great listen and my favourite show!

  • A Great Listen

    Absolutely fantastic to listen to Theo and Adam. Adam is a top chef and as Theo says at the end he’s a humble man but cares a lot about his team and customers. Which during lockdown I can personally vouch for . I would highly recommend watching this episode
