I’m breaking bread with big-name friends—old and new—for a delicious meal and candid convos that can only happen over a glass of wine. We're getting out of the studio and into my favorite restaurants across Los Angeles and New York City with people like Julie Bowen, Kristen Bell, Fred Armisen, Jesse Williams, Niecy Nash-Betts, and so many more. I know, a celebrity-interview podcast, who’s doing that? No one. Which is why I needed to. We’ll get vulnerable about everything from relationships and family history, to mental health and imposter syndrome. We’ll laugh about my attempted modeling career and being starstruck by Beyoncé. Look, am I saying a chocolate soufflé is going to get me to reveal all my secrets? Yeah. Yeah, I am. So, join me… dinner’s on me. Dinner’s on Me is a production of Sony Music Entertainment and A Kid Named Beckett Productions. Want to be the first to get new episodes of Dinner's on Me?

    Ivy Insights

    The Dinner's on Me with Jesse Tyler Ferguson podcast is an absolute gem for food enthusiasts and celebrity fans alike. Hosted by the charismatic Jesse Tyler Ferguson, this podcast combines two of the reviewer's favorite obsessions: good food and great restaurants, and engaging conversations with celebrities. What sets this podcast apart is Jesse's exceptional interviewing skills. He asks all the right questions that listeners are dying to ask, but does so in a conversational manner rather than coming across as pushy or intrusive. It's a joy to listen to him interact with his guests.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is how relatable and human it makes the celebrities feel. Despite their fame, Jesse manages to bring out their authentic selves through his warm and friendly approach. Listeners get to hear stories, anecdotes, and hilarious moments from these celebrities' lives, making them more relatable and down-to-earth. It's like eavesdropping on a conversation between friends.

    Additionally, the reviewer appreciates that each episode includes the name of the restaurant in the episode description. This not only adds a reference point for listeners who may be interested in trying out these restaurants themselves but also sets a sense of place for each conversation. The combination of delectable meals and engaging discussions creates a unique dining experience for both the guests and the listeners.

    However, one downside mentioned by a reviewer is the presence of eating and drinking noises throughout the episodes. While some may find it adds authenticity to the dining experience, others with misophonia may find it distracting or overwhelming. This could potentially be improved by finding a balance between capturing ambient sounds while minimizing background noise.

    In conclusion, The Dinner's on Me with Jesse Tyler Ferguson is an uplifting, entertaining, and informative podcast that offers an intimate glimpse into the lives of celebrities over delightful meals at fantastic restaurants. With Jesse's natural storytelling abilities and his ability to create a comfortable space for his guests to open up, each episode feels like a therapy session filled with laughter, good food, and great conversation. It's no wonder why this podcast has garnered such praise and enthusiasm from its listeners.
