Ride up is providing a wonderful spoken history of (primarily) North American baking. There are so many wonderful discussions with my baking heros.

✨Mark, you are a bright light of much needed HAPPY in our world! I literally find myself smiling as I listen to you speak. Your conversations are inspiring for myself as a home baker. Thank you for all that you do not only for the bread community but for society at large! Cheers to you!✨

Mark’s kind and continuous positivity bring a genuine warmth to each episode. The stories that each show catalogs will leave you with unique joy that only freshly baked goods can.

I so enjoyed listening to the episode with Matt Sanger. It touched on SO MANY things that I think on and struggle with as a solo baker with a store front on my little town. Thank you thank you thank ! Brooke Wild Rose Bread Company

Love your podcast! In the process of opening a bakery and going to SFBI in a few weeks. The episode with Matt Sanger was on point. Keep it up!

Love the podcast! I own a small cottage bakery and am growing rapidly, so this podcast has been a huge help in learning more about what other bakers are doing and have gone through. Thanks Mark!

Hey Mark, a fellow baker told me about your podcast and I love it, thanks for doing it. I also just went though the Alt MBA, so cool you’re a Coach. I’m a bakery owner in Panama City, Panama, and if it hadn’t been for bakers from the US and all their generosity, I wouldn’t be making decent...Read full review »

Mark is a great guy and he knows his stuff—unfortunately the quality of the recording makes listening just painful.

Mark is a great interviewer. He brings out the best of his guest and share vulnerably about himself in a way that makes us all optimistic we can too, help nurture our tribe. A quote from Mark: Food takes them to a moment, usually a happy moment to help you get the flavor of this podcast. I highly...Read full review »

Ok, technically it IS about baking. But even for a non-baker like me, this podcast is a treat. Host Mark Dyck is authentic, funny, knowledgeable, and kind. He asks great questions of his guests, and shares so many brilliant nuggets of his own. (The Mistake Cast was a personal favorite. The way...Read full review »

I recently returned to bread baking as a hobby, and I found this podcast. It’s been such a joy and inspiration to listen to- learning a bit about baking, a bit about the business side, and a lot about the people who share a passion for bread!

Just listened to the Jeff McCarthy/Breadservice episode & connected deeply with his story. As a stay-at-home-dad with a modest home bread business, this was balm for my soul in many ways. This show is more about bakers than baking & that is its strength for sure. Thanks, Mark!

I love to hear the inspiring stories of people who have been able to love what they are doing and I love baking! This is a fun and engaging podcast. I look forward to each episode.

This is a great show for getting inspired in your baking, being awed by hard working artisans or for those just interested in what it takes to run a business. I love Mark’s enthusiasm and how he connects so well with his guests.

I really appreciate getting in on a good bakery-themed "chat" with those who have walked the walk and who share experiences I can seriously relate to. The series is still young (episode 4 just came out today) and I'm hooked already. Thanks for doing this, Mark. I look forward to...Read full review »

I'm a moderately serious home baker. I have no plans of ever taking the giant leap of trying to open my own bakery. But I thoroughly enjoy listening to these interviews with all of these small bakery shop owners who have followed their passion. I've listened to about a dozen episodes...Read full review »

Mark, I can almost imagine the pot of coffee and scones at the table while you have this informal chat with these talented bakers. It's fascinating to hear their circuitous journeys to get where they are today. And I am learning more about your journey, too. I turn to this podcast before the...Read full review »

Everyone who bakes a loaf for friends or sells at the farmers market dreams of opening a neighborhood bakery and living the good life. Mark has lived this dream, all the highs and lows, and now he shares the stories of bakers all over. For a solo bakery owner like me, this is exactly the kind of...Read full review »

Please take note that there are no recipes or methods showcased in this podcast but rather it talks about the life of a...Read full review »

So glad Mark has launched this podcast. Looking forward to hearing more fascinating stories about the labour of love that being a baker must surely be.

So I first listened to this podcast while shaping 100 pretzels by hand at my bench. It's a great way to find out what goes on in other peoples bakeries without leaving your own!Read full review »
