Guests are fantastic, host has no clue what she’s doing
I enjoyed Erway’s book about not eating out in NYC & she is clearly someone who knows about food. Unfortunately, neither of those things makes up for how out of her depth she is in the capacity of host/interviewer. Recent listens illustrated how her experienced, eloquent guests (Tamar Adler, Diana Henry) generously & repeatedly bailed her out of unfinished sentences that go nowhere, halting questions that reveal her unpreparedness, & countless “ums,” “likes,” and giggles. Cathy, if you read any reviews, you are clearly passionate about food and cooking & hosting this podcast is an amazing platform. But PLEASE learn something substantive about your guests & prepare some pertinent questions that aren’t worded in a “yes/no” format. You are not a high school student in a beginning journalism class, but you sound like one.
