Look forward to every episode

This podcast is so interesting and informative down to earth and easy to listen to I no longer live in the UK but this keeps me up to date on what’s going on in the food and restaurant world and gives me a lot of inspiration recipe and idea wise.

Olive podcasts need some refining

Because I love Olive Magazine, I wanted to like these podcasts, I really did, but... Laura needs to refine her interview technique and keep guests (and herself) on point. Too chatty, too meandering, not enough context, not enough shape and structure to the conversations. It feels like no one has done their homework. Also: sound quality seems amateurish. Please consider spending more time and money on recording technology, the mix, music bridges, editing. In the meantime, I’ll stick with my hard copy Olive issues.
