…Needed dear listener. Tap the slow speed to listen to this podcast,…. and tap volume up. Other-wise you’l go crazy. After the slight adjustment it’s NOT to be missed. Excellent podcast!

I learn so much from each episode. Thanks

A podcast I love to listen to when I am thinking of creating new recipes or looking for inspiration! Each week I learn a new mouth-watering recipe I need to make ASAP!

This podcast needs to send their sound engineer back to school. It’s really frustrating to listen to the fluctuations in sound.

Love your podcasts! …The way you host/interview by letting the guests, their stories and recipes shine is exactly why I listen. Also, just picked up your cookbook and am really enjoying. Many thanks!

This is a mediocre podcast at best, no real food knowledge, no real recipes—just a quiet sounding host talking to people you don’t know about their life history and barely any food info. I’m pretty baffled how I just listened to an episode supposedly about noodle soup & literally heard nothing about soup or noodle soup. Totally skippable if you’re actually looking for recipes or food knowledge or food history. Way better food podcasts out there.

Love Kristen’s soothing and insightful manner. She brings out the best in her guests and their recipes. My favorite podcast

I love listening to Kristen. Her manner is wonderful! She is soft-spoken, a good listener and unfailingly interested in everything. She’s my favorite food podcaster. I also appreciate the number of vegan recipes they do. Thank you so much for that!

Great interviews given by such a knowledgeable person makes for such depth. The kindness, gentle, soft spoken manner Kristen has and her willingness to wait and enjoy the interviewee answers sets a refreshingly beautiful tone always

😅trying to binge listen and the lady yelling at the dog and the guy singing the Indian song are super annoying. I’m not near my phone so I can’t fast forward. If the guy thought it was annoying for him to listen to that Indian song, why is he making us listen to it over and over? 😭 love the show but be near your phone to skip over these annoying ads.

Love this show

Thank you so much for such a thoughtful podcast in addition to the lovely YT 52 vids. Your approach is warm, welcoming and delicious.

This is entertaining sometimes but wish it had something like recipes.

I love the stories and the speakers but the volume is inconsistent so it’s too quiet at some parts and gets really loud at others. There are also really long commercial breaks in the middle. These breaks are way too long and repetitive.

I’ve listened to 4 episodes and have still not heard a recipe or an ingenious preparation method. Seems like this is about biographies, minutiae, and selling cookbooks. I’ll stop following now.

First time listening I listened to this. And the guest said “LIKE” and laughed more then she talked about the recipe. I just couldn’t. I had to move on. Could have been a great episode but that one ruined it for me. I hope there will be better ones so I can rate this show better.

I always love getting to hear the origin story behind a good recipe. I’ve been learning so much from this podcast and appreciate the simple genius tips from Kristen each week. Great guests and recipe inspiration when I’m out of ideas for dinner! + Her voice is so soothing! 😂

Please don’t buy into the new “give eye creator credit for this recipe” movement. Everything has “roots”. How can one POSSIBLY trace every recipe back to original source??? Much like the “there us nothing wrong with being fat” movement, this is RIDUCULOUS. At a time when cooks should be encouraged, this nonsense us making potential newbies run...fast. UGH.

I had to strain to hear what you were saying because the “background” music was so loud.

I really enjoy anything she is in. I love how easy and relaxed she seems as she approaches new things. This podcast is no different.

Kristen is an amazing host and her knowledge and passion for food and the featured recipes is palpable. She knows how to get the juice out of each question and I love the direction that the conversations go when they dig beyond the recipe but also its origin and each guest’s background. Well done, Food52!

My favorite genius recipe is from Patricia Wells, “fake frites”. Exacting golden goodness every time. Thanks Food52!

I’ve been following Genius on Food52 for years so I was thrilled to see there is a behind the scenes podcast! The first episode was great with Sohla. Can’t wait for more!

Kristen is a wonderful interviewer, and she and her guests get into such great conversations!

I love Genius Recipes the series and can’t wait for the podcast.
