Some hopefully constructive criticism
Ok ladies, I'm in the middle of Episode 28 and you read your 1-star review out loud and asked about what the long-time listeners thought. I've heard every single one of your episodes and I will tell you what bothers me and what keeps me listening. I've been meaning to write you a review for a while and every time I listen to your podcast, I remember that I've been putting it off. The Chit-Chat: This is what you asked about explicitely. Chitchat is important to connect you with your listener (me!). However, I think chitchat should be edited. I've noticed consistently that the podcast plays for about 8-12 minutes before you even really talk about baking. Compared to some of the other podcasts I listen to regularly, that's about twice as long as the normal amount of chitchat. I love your chitchat, but I think it should be edited down to about five minutes in order to keep people interested. The Baking Bit: Taunya, you know your stuff! I love learning from you. I think I'd love to hear more about how to tell the difference between a good bake and a bad bake in each episode. I'd love to hear a bit more of the science behind some of the baking (but not too much!). The Business Bit: Melody, you have taught me a few things in running my own small business. Please keep going with your input! I think the business bit is a huge blindspot for most people and you shine light on that. I do love this podcast, but I think a bit more polish on the editing side will get you more listeners. I wish you both well!Read full review »

I love this podcast! It so fun to listen to. You get great tips and the Facebook group is very supportive and helpful. I look forward to every new episode, and listen to is as soon as I can. One of the only podcasts I have actually gone back and re-listened to. Great work!

I'm so glad there's a podcast devoted to baking! But like some others, I wish you'd get to the baking much more quickly. I now see that you mark when the chit-chat wraps. Very helpful! I fast-forwarded to the content in the last two episodes I listened to. And still. So much...Read full review »

Tried to listen and really found it completely unrelated to anything interesting at all......couldn’t get through the first half of the intro.
