I’m converted

I heard ads for this show on the maxfun network and thought “not for me.” Then I saw they were recapping bake off and gave it a try. I’m converted, this is my new “listen to immediately” podcast. Hosts are funny and smart, chemistry is great, we agree that Nelly needs her own show. Maybe their fans should be called Nellies? Dylans? We’ll figure something out.

Hungry to Win!

Really glad MaxFun added you all to the network! Just finished the Top Chef season and now making a team for Master Chef! Absolutely LOVE every cooking competition show so this podcast is PERFECT for me! Looking forward to seeing what the hosts think of a Ramsay competition show! 🤣🤣🤣

Engaging!

It’s always a good sign when the only negative reviews are conservatives being upset that POC discuss their race in any capacity. Don’t like, don’t listen. I’ve only started listening now for the master chef episode but I loved it! Caught up on the episodes and can’t wait for the next one. So good so far, happy they joined MaxFun so I could find out about them.
Earbuds in!

Just ok.

I’m giving it a listen because I really love Top Chef and Top Chef commentaries, but why are they so focused on race? Often using the term, “a white guy thing” as derogatory. I just don’t like that.

A great listen!

As a long-time Top Chef fan, this is a welcome listening supplement! So funny and good episode analysis! Like watching with friends

Horrible

I’m picking them because they are black- I am picking them because they are handsome GROSS
