“I am a fan of Simon and admire his wealth of culinary knowledge but this podcast is very scripted, seriously one note and monotone at best very hard to get excited and see it thru”

“Your show is quite enjoyable! The stories and knowledge I absorb after each episode are my favorite aspects of your podcast.

“While Simon may put on a tough exterior on Food Network, he is not only personable in the flesh but also conveys his kind persona via this podcast. This is my go-to relaxation podcast after a long day in the company of a fine spirit or wine. I put in my AirPods and proceed to let Simon’s wisdom...”Read full review »

“Peppered with anti-Christian bigotry, in some cases leading to historical revisionism, such as a false rewriting of the crusades.”

Great podcast; thanks
Not related to this show, but as a follow-up to the curry show, it would be interesting to see how other former European colonial powers in Asia — I’m thinking Portugal, the Netherlands, and France — adapted curries...”Read full review »

“I have been a fan of Simon for as long as I can remember. He has a way with food that is hard to describe. Not only does he love food, but he loves it in a way that puts most food lovers and bloggers to shame. When I discovered that he had a podcast, I literally jumped for my phone and downloaded...”Read full review »

“Kudos to Simon for creating and being a part of this great series. Food brings, health, love, friendship. You may be by yourself enjoying a favourite food, with friends cooking and enjoying a meal. To learn about our favourite foods just makes it more meaningful.”

“In addition to being a preeminent ambassador of food anthropology, Simon is simply, truly... undeniably... a remarkable human being. He is a paradox—a stranger to whom I would offer the key to my refuge, my home. Because there are some souls we encounter in life whose depth of pure goodness...”Read full review »

“It’s a passable pod. Love his voice and accent, but 5 stars across the board? No. Some subjects are really not interesting. No new pods for a while, not going to regret deleting it and gaining memory on my phone.”

“Nice to see that very annoying and pedantic person who used to me a know it all on various food discussion boards has made something of himself. Ah! Those wonderful days when he would block people on social media for having a different opinion. Podcast not bad though.”

“I first learned of the Eat My Globe podcast when Alton Brown posted in Instagram that he would be a guest in the show. I knew if Alton was a fan, then I probably would be, too. Alton is one of the biggest influences on my interest in cooking, food science, and creativity. Simon is now right up...”Read full review »

Finally someone who knows more about food than just its ingredients is bringing its history, culture and eccentric stories to life. There should be a TV series that goes a long with it. Brilliantly...”Read full review »
