Always something you would not hear about anywhere else. The Kitchen Sisters don’t disappoint in providing extra interesting topics and people who you will want to research further . I often think how have I never heard about this person after an episode.

Excellent storytelling, editing, and interviews. Radiolab first introduced me to the audio tapestries that are possible on radio / podcast. Kitchen Sisters transports you to hidden kitchens and other oral histories. My favorite episodes are the Sam Phillips episode about Sun Records, and the one...Read full review »

I’m absolutely living for the Hip-hop archive in Harvard. I also really enjoy the diversity of the show in general. From women of different ethnic backgrounds, occupations, history really, coming together and giving them the platform to speak their truth. Keep the diversity going and flowing.

The back stories told in an engaging manner without the narrative containing a single “like” much less 6 in one sentence.

Please keep up the great podcasts.

Hidden Kitchens episode is so delicious and soulful Thank you kitchen sisters

Disappointing that such an intelligent, humanistic and nuanced audio project would allow itself to serve as the soap box for jingoistic calls to escalate conflict with a nuclear power.

Background music and sounds are too loud and distracting. I had to stop listening.

Intelligent and deep. It soothes me to feel the loving truth of the people you choose to share with us. I admire this whole endeavor. Skillful music support and the editing. Thank you for the devotion to the values and authentic stories of people I want to know. Margaret

Hi kitchen sister, you make so many lovely stories, well done. Your latest story about Betty really got me sobbing, a fantastic story of a life. If you ever come to Norway I can treat you for a stay in one of our treehouses (Aacamp.no). Kind regards Peter Manning

Rich audio and storytelling, a treat for the ear and mind

Really, really good for the most part. Travels some interesting territory. The sound quality varies, because of the source material, which is understandable. Where the podcast falters is when the hosts interject themselves into the stories or interviews. They bring a certain 'white American...Read full review »

The episode on Eel Pie Island was great! For a podcast that seems a bit niche at first, actually has a broad appeal. The Dylan archives ep was also a highlight for me.

He does not treat his workers well at his factories in Sonoma. How about covering that? People with repetitive work injuries get fired.

Worth every minute.

Accessible stories that provide inspiring glimpses into other lives and other worlds—stories of humans genuinely contributing to the betterment of our world.
La47Lo122 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/12/21
I love your fascinating podcast but it is VERY frustrating! All episodes are at such a INCREDIBLY FAST speed ,I can’t listen. There is no way to SLOW it down? It is really a shame because it’s a great podcast but almost unintelligible & annoying due to such super fast talking!
SAD&true via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 10/27/20
But I'm always confused as to why it is called "Kitchen Sisters" maybe I am super dumb--but I am guessing that the hosts are sisters, and Kitchen is their last name? Please someone correct me, I'm so confusedRead full review »

Love this discovery! So Delicious-start from the beginning!

Sooo glad I discovered this podcast!
Le!$a via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/05/20
Tried to listen, but I couldn’t. The music is so loud. It’s very good, but the talking is too loud to really focus on it, and it’s way too loud to hear the talking.
RosyF50 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 07/02/20
Intriguing and unusual topics, engagingly told. Well done!

In the midst of the COVID sequestration, this episode was an audio balm. I loved because my father has passed away, and because I am in my 60s looking back on the parts of my life I’m proudest of. I especially appreciated how Davila’s affection for her father came through in her phone calls back...Read full review »
I listened in May, 2020 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/16/20
Well-produced stories. I like that they cover a variety of topics and people; you never know quite what you're going to get. I'm often pleasantly surprised when they dive into a subject that I wouldn't look into myself, but end up finding intriguing because of their work.Read full review »

Not only to they pick the buried stories that need to be heard and shared but the KS are voice musicians. Their timing, pauses, humor, storytelling tones bring you up close and comfort.
Lettheonionring via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/22/20
TKS are the perfect combination of great old school story telling and modern relevant themes. I would not be without this podcast.
tricky-p via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/19/20
Over produced and self-indulgent.
Top of the Pods via Apple Podcasts · Great Britain · 04/15/20
I have spent many hours with this podcast. I look forward to many more❤️
Dugan🐈🎧⭐️ via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/14/20
There are some gems here, especially in the early years of the podcast. As time goes on the episodes get bogged down with lots of adds and self promotion. at the beginning, middle and end of each podcast, sometimes adding up to 20+% of each podcast.
Archie Mancuso via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 02/21/20
At one point I listened to most of the offerings of Radiotopia. The Kitchen Sisters is one of their best. I have been with the Kitchen Sisters from the beginning. The episode content is always interesting and production quality is outstanding. These podcasters love what they do and it shows.
jmangelo via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 01/22/20
I started listening to The Kitchen Sisters about 2 years ago now. I have now listened to quite possibly every episode that is available on traditional stitcher & apple podcasts. I haven’t found another like it. I’m addicted to the short windows into the past - it’s like turning down and old...Read full review »

This podcast opens you up to small worlds you never knew existed. I love their ongoing relationship with keepers and archivists of all kinds / of all things. I find myself wondering what the future would be like without storytellers like this.
Moxxxxxccccxxxh via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 11/24/19
Great stories, great voices
marinaaaa via Apple Podcasts · Canada · 10/03/19
Thoughtfully-rendered, uniquely SMART fun. Wonderful show!
Jalin Ma via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 08/13/19
The Kitchen Sisters get it. Period. Instead of chasing the popular surface subject matter, they dig deeper to give you an intimate insider’s view. Brava!
Steph Cozzi via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/11/19
Love these stories! One of my faves.
KHASL via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 06/09/19
That they chop chop chop chop chop up. Sometimes it works and a gorgeous and comprehensible sound poem/story comes together (Ferlinghetti). Others become so disjointed, mixing the natural organization and progress of the narrative, that I become confused and disoriented, and thus, sad and angry...Read full review »

I’m so sorry but I was so disappointed in this episode. It was my mistake, I thought it was going to be about “fans” as people fans. Every time I fast forwarded, someone was raving about ‘that wonderful sound...’ I love the rest of the episodes I’ve heard from you, but omg, I had to turn this...Read full review »
ArtGirlSAH via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 05/19/19
Came across this via “Criminal” podcast. Love the Keeper series! Who ever thought you could do a podcast about lost sounds? I wasn’t sure until I listened to the episode about fans and suddenly heard the fan that was in my bedroom growing up 50 years ago. It was awesome!
ord/phx via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/21/19
This is my favorite podcast of all time. I adore the Kitchen Sisters and as a woman who lives and loves from her Kitchen, it makes me so happy to be able to share you with others.
CAcationu2 via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 04/17/19
I heard the podcast about the 'hummus wars' and although the creaters obviously had good intentions of showing how food can have positive impacts on people, they completely missed the issued of how Israel is subsidising and appropriating culture as a tool of cultural genocide and...Read full review »

Wow! Some great stories here so compelling that I can't bring myself to delete them. “Cry Me A River" just makes me want to weep over a subject new to me. And I am still surprised that there is a story in Basque sheepherders in the US. But there you have it. Great writing, music,...Read full review »

I need to find out how to become a keeper! Keep it up. Please!

Just discovered the series of podcasts on archivists. Wonderful, fascinating episodes. I wish there were more. Love these ladies.

I’m new to the Kitchen Sisters and came here for The Keepers (thanks for the rec, phoebe judge/criminal). I have listened to the two available The Keeper episodes and while I wait for new episodes, I’m very excited to have so many aired episodes to explore!!

Love this podcast, but the crown jewel is the Lost and Found Sound footage! Perhaps an entire podcast solely devoted to that project? Or just more of it - I have a desperate desire to binge listen that endlessly.
kdpbtuvmegcj via Apple Podcasts · United States of America · 09/07/18
While I found the show at the start interesting, I found it a bit repetitious. Also I didn’t like that it deviated from talking about food.
