This is such a terrific, warm, funny podcast. Jane, Howard and Dan are great, witty companions to each episode. Keep up the great work!

I hope you guys come back with Janes or Dans season. I loved listening to Howard explain his season. Happy New Year to all. 🎊🥳

I love The Bake Down podcast. Just listening to the latest New Year’s 2024 episode. Always an enjoyable chat and recap of the Bake Off episodes. Sarah, Jane, Howard and Dan are delightful hosts. I wish them all the best for 2024! Thank you!

Jane is too focused on Jane and not on constructive discussion of the bakes. The story about Flo was mean and unnecessary.

I look forward to this podcast as much I look forward to the programme! I love the chat between everyone and Sarah is so good at keeping everyone on track!

I love listening to Sarah, Howard, Jane and Dan rehash the GBBO every week. It’s almost as fun as watching the show!

Dan went wayyyyyyyyy too far on this podcast around the 20:30 time stamp. Mocking Tash, the adorable and gifted baker on this seasons Netflix series who happens to be hearing impaired to the degree in which they have brought on a sign language interpreter to help Tash in the kitchen.

I love love love the Bake Down. Have been an avid watcher of Bake Off since it’s inception and it’s so great to hear the camaraderie but more importantly the insights and critiques of Howard, Jane and Dan who have all experienced the Bake Off for themselves. Just wish I didn’t have to wait so...Read full review »

Thank you so much for doing the re-watch of Season 4; it was really interesting to get Howard’s insight about what happened in the tent. I love your current season reviews too!
ELG67ELG via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/29/23
I’ve enjoyed going along with season 4, please do all the seasons!

Well done! This podcast is great for reliving the greatest reality show ever with some expert hosts. They have good insights. They are kind and not petty. They concentrate on the bakes, the bakers and the show. It is very well hosted and skillfully led by Josh who adeptly leads the conversation....Read full review »

I enjoy the show but Jane just makes so many snobby comments. She picks her favorites and then decides who she doesn’t like. I’m only on their first season, but she is going on about Steph and how she didn’t get enough criticism for having gaps in her cake compared to someone else she couldn’t...Read full review »

Listening from the US. A fun first-hand review of the latest season of the Bake Off. Thanks for your sometimes critical perspectives (eg Jane’s take on “proving”). This isn’t a breathless fan cast, but one of the best podcasts about the show. I agree that the show has changed a bit (pizza...Read full review »

I’ve tried other GBBO podcasts, but this one is the best. If you are a fan of the show, you will love it!

Excellent GBBS podcast! I really enjoy the ensemble and all the personalities. Thanks and keep it up.
LindaYogaGirl via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/16/22
Lots of fun, I like the commentary and inside scoop from those who have been on Bake Off!
KateSings via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/16/22
I love listening to Howard, Jane and Dan discuss Bake Off each week, so much so that I often re-listen to each episode. These bakers are all so wonderful, I loved them while they were on Bake Off, and being with them again is such a joy! They’re also great at explaining some of the unique...Read full review »

I love Jane’s hatred of Paul Hollywood 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻 she’s saying everything we are thinking! Dan is so knowledgeable and insightful when it comes to baking knowledge. And Howard is so funny! Recently rewatched his season and he had a rough go. So happy he’s on this podcast because he shines!
dddddddddgdgdgddd via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/11/22
Really enjoy the podcast. Only little bugbear is that apart from English listeners, the only other country the hosts mentions is America. There are people from other countries that listen too.
Lucy F8 via Apple Podcasts · Australia · 09/07/22
Anxiously awaiting new bakedown episodes…oh, and the next bakeoff season too 😜
atara l via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/08/22
I love everything about this podcast. The dynamics between the four hosts are great and Josh is a good moderator. I took off a star because Josh’s constant shilling for the Bake With a Legend classes has gotten excessive this season. It used to be a couple mentions at the beginning and end, and...Read full review »

Perfect combination of information and irreverent humor. I started listening last year and Dan is a perfect addition. Josh is the rare moderator who keeps things moving, ot asking identical questions to all three panelists. Special commendation for Howard’s Humpf (sp?)

I look forward to each episode, it’s like meeting up with your friends for a weekly chat.
Katherine Sis via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/14/21
I listen to several podcasts for this show. Each is enjoyable in its own way. I enjoy this one the most and wish it were even longer than it is. Having former contestants is a big plus.
Feances Ellen Morris via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/09/21
Almost better than the original. I love the weekly recap by the Baked Off crew and when Jane is in a grump she is hilarious. Even if you are not a GBBO fan you can enjoy this weekly banter.
USA Annie P. via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/16/21
I love listening to this podcast. I like hearing the stories of when Howard, Jane, and Dan were on Bake Off. It also gives me insight into the bakes.
feldydancer via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/02/21
Fun
It’s fun to listen to a podcast after watching the show, like chatting it over with your friends. The host Josh Landy is friendly and pleasant to listen to. It’s unfortunate that more recent episodes seem to be featuring Dan Beasley Harlingen more frequently, because he comes off as very...Read full review »

This is a can’t miss podcast for any Bake Off fan! Great information and witty, knowledgeable hosts. I look forward to it every week each season.
fresh_parsley via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/22/21
I’ve really enjoyed this podcast as a post-GBBO treat the next day, but the new host just doesn’t have the chemistry with Howard and Jane. It feels more like a roundtable - ‘Jane, how do you feel about X’ ‘Howard, how do you feel about X’ - than a nicely flowing podcast. Bring back Josh!
Pi love <3 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/14/21
Greetings from Glenside USA. I really enjoy this podcast. Josh is a fine host and I appreciate the insightful observations and perspectives from Jane, Howard, and Dan. Very much looking forward to season 12!
Waxy_Mike via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/05/20
I have watched GBBO for several years but only discovered the podcast a couple months ago. I love listening to the insights, tips and thoughts from Jane, Howard and guest bakers. They seem funny, lovely, kind and passionate about baking and the podcast has been the perfect antidote to 2020!!
Laurafjv via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 12/04/20
I have been enjoying GBBO for years. However, I only discovered this podcast a few weeks before the end of this season. This podcast is the perfect after-viewing experience. It’s fun to hear former contestants give their opinions and provide their insights. I look forward to it each week...Read full review »

I love listening to this podcast after the show. I highly recommended it to anyone who loves Bake Off!❤️

Wonderful show, excellent guests from former seasons.
Tiny Clanger via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 10/14/20
So frustrating listening to Kimberly and Katie. First, Kimberly constantly interrupts or talks over Katie. Also, they’re proud of the fact that they don’t do any research. Not something to be proud of ladies! Quite the opposite. Why don’t they already know that the bakers get 2 days on, 2 days...Read full review »

Hello y’all - cheers from Texas! I have watched every season available in the US at least twice, some three or four times. I’m a fairly new baker and watching GBBO has inspired me to learn more and actually bake! This podcast is so engaging; I feel like I have you in the room with me as I watch...Read full review »

US listener here. Love, love, love hearing Jane and Howard’s insights and all of the behind-the-scenes knowledge about Bake Off. The worst part is that the podcast comes out on Wednesday but we can’t watch the latest episode in the US until Friday, so I have to let the episode sit in my library...Read full review »

What a brilliant podcast and so needed at these times. So glad it’s back! The host Josh Landy is excellent. Have subscribed and can’t wait for next week

This podcast is a must for anyone who enjoys the show.
