“Good episodes highlighting restaurants and cuisines listeners may not be aware of or have experienced.
The part that gets me is in the soul food restaurant in LA episode they describe this poor restaurant is lost in a sea of whiteness. “Chatsworth is bastion of whiteness” described by a...”Read full review »

“I’m glad Gravy got rescued and there are new episodes again, but I’m annoyed by how many ads the new host company is cramming into all the episodes, even old ones. I’m still catching up, and there are several minutes of ads in 5 year old episodes, ads that are unrelated to Gravy in content or...”Read full review »

“What a great vignette about Galveston, TX: The history, the immigrant impact (particularly the Italians) and the fascinating stories of the characters that were interviewed. (Loved hearing the ambience of the locations). I was drooling by the end with the stories about the sausage! So good!”

“I have really enjoyed your offerings from Evan Stern. He’s got a natural talent for drawing the listener in to the story. I’ve really enjoyed them all. He hooked me so much in the Wends piece that I actually looked up where to order the noodles. They arrived a couple days ago and I don’t see how...”Read full review »

“I joined SFA for food, recipes fun. This podcast is some strange NPR like show with unintelligent commentary that is in a word weird.
The content is completely unrelated to southern food. The politics and historical insights are incomprehensible and some episodes are under 5 minutes. This is...”Read full review »

“Topic very interesting and well researched , interesting research on food and changed in Americans sizes .
Aside: the “music “ in the background became overwhelming and took over the audio at points hard to listen in ear buds

“I grew up in the New York City area, as usually is the case one has to leave one’s hometown to gain an appreciation for it. That sort of happened. Friends would wonder why I would be fascinated by biscuits with sausage gravy, gumbo or a big slice of cake. As someone who is working class 1st...”Read full review »

“Gravy you should listen to from the beginning. It’s fantastic. It’s the podcast of the Southern Foodways Alliance so they’re using good as a gateway to talk about culture. Historical stories, immigrant stories, people stories all told through a lens of food. From a synagogue in Louisiana, to...”Read full review »

“I used to look forward to the next drop of Gravy Podcast. (Pun intended). Now every episode seems to be not about food per se but about the downtrodden and quite frankly I don’t care to listen to that. At least not every podcast. The last few months have been nothing I want to listen to.

“This is one of the few podcasts where I listen to the episodes more than once. I trap my family in the car so that they listen to the deep and varied stories from across the south. It reminds me often of the depth of reporting I find in Texas Monthly.”

“Should be called Liberal Gravy. Very preachy podcast in the episodes I listened to. Pushed diversity with food/cooking as a background topic. Can anyone recommend a podcast on Southern food and cooking where the passion and focus is Southern food and cooking?”
