I’m a Londoner but I’ve been listening for a few years and love This is TASTE! Some great interviews with the likes of Jamie Oliver and Jesse Burgess, and fascinating insights into cookbook writing and other food writing. Matt is a great interviewer
Great show, but hosts get out of breath from trying to talk so fast! Dang. You have good stuff to say, all us admire it.
I love the idea of you and Hunter Lewis creating a no turkey new food holiday. Both Matt and Aliza are absolutely amazing. I’d do want to say that I very much appreciated the care Matt took with Swamp Dogg in that interview. The compassion was noted and made my heart smile. I love this show!
