I was happy to find Adam back focusing on food over the last year. I have especially been happy listening to him interview a variety of different people here. Lunch Therapy is an interesting but maybe challenging concept and Adam genuinely makes it work. His skills drawing out his guests are...Read full review »

I love Adam’s podcast. His slightly off kilter and irreverent sense of humor really resonates with me as does his interest in all things food related. I am just now taking a look back on this absolute treasure trove of episodes. Thanks for these!

Great podcast! Been following Adam Roberts for a while but just started listening to the podcast. Already learning lots. And just as fun and witty as his Blog and newsletter.

5 Stars all around! As someone who loves a ‘What’s in my bag / fridge’ Lunch Therapy is my jam! Bonus - most of the guests are people I already love OR didn’t know I needed in my life! About to embark on all the back episodes. Thanks Adam!

I hate making lunch. I always forget to or never have time. It’s my least favorite meal of the day. That is, until I came across this gem of a podcast. Adam’s sweet nerdy voice soothes me as I drive. His variety of guests keep me engaged. I even began asking my friends what they had for lunch and...Read full review »

Lunch Therapy by Adam Roberts is my favorite podcast. I have enjoyed Adam’s voice, humor, perspective of food as a home cook and enthusiastic eater and the slice of life he has shared widely for years, via his blog, tv writing and Instagram—listening to his podcast is the natural extension of...Read full review »

Period!

Adam finds just the littlest hint of something in someone’s lunch to get the conversation flowing, and it’s always engaging, entertaining and fun. Helps if you like Broadway, making fun of Boca, and queer folk making big impacts in food, WHICH I DO. 🌈

Really enjoying this podcast. Love how Adam is able to connect the writing, film and food worlds. He has a real knack for putting his guests at ease.

I have missed this delightful and informative podcast so much. Its return gives me hope for things getting back to normal. Celia Sack episode was particularly fascinating.

It’s such fun to listen in on Adam’s “therapy” sessions, a perfect mix of food talk, insight into the guest’s background and their current work. Adam is a kind and funny host, and his guests are always interesting.

I stumbled upon @amateurgourmet on Instagram shortly before the pandemic took hold, and I am so glad I did. Roberts’s food posts and cooking stories (and Winston cameos) kept me sane(ish) and inspired over the last year and a half. I finally started listening to Lunch Therapy and am having so...Read full review »

It’s funny and cozy and interesting and I could listen for hours. So happy it’s back!
Laurenhavlo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/17/21
I’m not in the food business, but I’m so drawn to this podcast because of the genuine nature of it. I’m impressed with the set up and how Adam Roberts is so sincere and curious about his guests. He does a great job as an interviewer!!!

This is one of those podcasts that doesn’t just talk about food but makes you hungry for it. It’s not a recipe podcast, but more of a conversation you are invited to be apart of with relatable experiences and how food brings us together.
Holly Verbeck via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/11/21
SO happy lunch therapy is back!
andgdu via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/20/21
I’ve been following this podcast since Adam hosted Deb Perelman of Smitten Kitchen and have been hooked. It is such a lovely way to spend an hour and super interesting if you’re a food geek. I appreciate how the “therapy sessions” are at times more serious and deep, tackling issues like...Read full review »

Enjoyed your show! Ryan is always talking about your amazing meals (and he is picky). Looking forward to learning from you. First up is that tomato sauce sounds amazing
karenoconnell via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/06/20
I love listening to Adam’s weekly podcast. I only wish he’d analyze my lunches🤷‍♀️.
ksasea via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 03/08/20
What a great way to find out about the food people who have inspired us! Adam asks thoughtful, intelligent, and deep questions that engage the listener. He has the ability to listen to his guest as well as probe deeper for the unanswered questions. What a delight!

I truly hope “identifying as a man” doesn’t mean getting lumped in with the likes of you — someone who turns desperately to anonymous hate-mongering because he can’t find anyone who can bear talking to him for more than 3 minutes at a time. Adam is thoughtful, funny, passionate about food and...Read full review »

Adam is a great interviewer and the guests he’s had so far have been brilliant and wide ranging, from actors to food legends. Always insightful and entertaining, well worth subscribing to
Edwardkimuk via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 02/25/20
When I first stumbled across the Amateur Gourmet blog, I was an overworked and overstressed mom/lawyer/wife/etc/etc who could barely keep it together. If cooked at home, dinner was hasty and sad. Yet one little phrase in one simple recipe for the Best Brownies of Your Life (and for real they...Read full review »

This is my favorite podcast out there and really inspired me to get more into food and cooking! Moreover, as an aspiring psychotherapist, Adam Roberts is not only entertaining to listen to but also seems to have a natural talent for analyzing and understanding people‘s relationship with food and...Read full review »

Would love it if even more if even more of the focus were on your guests as you get great people. And food prep and where to eat is also awesome!!! Thanks for doing it.
lllllljjjjn via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/10/20
Adam often ends up getting to some very hard-hitting interview content early in the interviews. Guests offer insightful and inspiring stories and Adam shares some vulnerable content as well. There are funny episodes and episodes that make you feel things. If you love food and food writers, you...Read full review »

I've now listened to 6 different Lunch Therapy episodes. Each one is unique and all are wonderful and informative. They have me talking out loud. These touch on so many fun food topics and sometimes seem like a trip down memory lane for me .... especially the one with Susan Feniger. Adam...Read full review »

Just listened to two episodes back to back! You do such a great job of interviewing with remarkable results! Also enjoy the banter with your husband.

Always a joy to listen to!

I actually think in my mind we’re friends. I know he wants to be my friend. Well I’d like him to be my friend. He’s smart. Well spoken. Honest. His heart felt podcasts are always something to look forward to. Then I’m a little sad I have to wait for another one. Give Lunch Therapy a try. I’ll be...Read full review »

Listening to this in London UK and it really perks up my week. Funny, kind and insightful. Enjoying the new intros too.
GWTraveller via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 01/14/20
This podcast is such a wonderful respite from the usual food podcasts. Adam’s unique take on psychoanalyzing guests based on what they eat is brilliant and hilarious and I love listening to each episode to see where the conversation goes!
lasagnabolognese via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/20
While being entertaining and playful. Adam is a very good interviewer and listener. Clearly a lot of hard work goes into these. Also, he has a great sense of who would make good guests. Looking forward to who shows up next.
seznec via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/14/20
What a pleasure to be able to listen to Adam after following his writing for years! I always learn and laugh, the best combination. Fantastic podcast - highly recommend.
RedHeadedStranger404 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/13/20
Such a lovely, unpretentious approach to human connections over food. An easy-listening podcast that brings you back to finding beauty and meaning in the mundane- such as ordering lunch.
islandguy89 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/13/20
Love it!! Love it on Monday’s . My newest favorite podcast... everything about food!! Great host, great questions.. glad I found it!!
sunflowersinthewind via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/13/20
Ok
You seem like smart people that are kind and I always appreciate that. I wish the host would focus more, less interruptions, ignore your dog rustling around. You lost me with uninteresting banter, and it feels like your trying to just cover all quiet moments. Sometimes it feels like podcasts are...Read full review »

Adam is such a wonderful person. He’s also a fantastic cook. I have both his cookbooks and I follow him on Instagram. His recipes and cooking instructions are spot on. He knows what he’s talking about on his podcast. His questions are always polite and people warm up to him, but he knows how...Read full review »

Effortlessly funny, insightful and moving. Adam is a fantastic interviewer. About food and cooking, but also family, career and relationships. Best podcast ever to cook to. An instant classic!
momfromVA via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/06/20
I have been following Adam since Amateur Gourmet days so am a fan of his work. This podcast has a great premise for those interested in talking about food. Adam is quite insightful, an active listener and able to really make some great connections based on the conversations.
LWeibrecht via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/04/20
Enjoyable conversation with amiable host and interesting guests. It’s involves good talk and food; how bad can that be?

Want food talk from nice, interesting, and fun people? Listen to Adam’s podcast and then subscribe to his newsletter too.

I've been reading Adam's blog for years (and was so excited when he moved to LA, my hometown!) His podcast has been getting better and better each week as he's gotten into the groove. (I love the addition of Craig to the intros!) One of the most relaxing podcasts I listen to.Read full review »

I’m either eating, talking about food, or planning vacations centered around eating. This podcast is legit.
