“Chef Jacob is a refreshingly intelligent and irreverent podcaster. I love his scientific approach, joie de vivre, and disdain for anyone riding a high horse. His bread series, in particular the sourdough, has been a huge help to me as a baker. His other podcasts are entertaining and have helped...”Read full review »

“I was looking for a cooking podcast that skipped all of the mumbling, inside-joke banter between hosts that offered only a couple minutes out of an hour of poor quality audio.
This IS that show. This IS what you’re looking for! So educational. So to the point. So interesting. So...”Read full review »

“Perfect mix of intro and deep dive for a wide range of topics. So much cooking content is just glorified recipes rather than teaching the why behind the why to really learn culinary skills.”

“I’ve been wanting to get into sourdough bread making. Jacob’s 5 part series is a great primer with practical insights. He breaks down the process into manageable parts. For example, none of the books I’ve read describe how you can easily convert a recipe from a direct method into an indirect...”Read full review »
