Podcasts about The Great British Bake Off

Actress Leslie Bibb joins Sam while Mercury is fully in retrograde and they quickly agree that their shoulders only fully relax when they’re in the country despite both living in the city. They talk about being subject to the winds of planetary forces, not being gamblers (they both abide by a strict “only 20 dollars at a time” rule) because they’ve worked too hard for their money, and their shared hatred of wasting stuff including chicken carcasses. Leslie talks about how watching Bob Villa as a kid has inspired her own home renovation projects and teaching other women how to do renovation on Tik Tok and why she’s going to have spores in her sourdough that predate the country. They gush over The Great British Bake Off and agree it’s appointment television, taking cooking classes in foreign countries, people who have recipes they won’t even share with their kids, and how we can learn to disagree with our parents as they get older.

It's Patisserie Week on The Soggy Bottom Girls, and the innuendos are rising faster than choux pastry in a hot oven! Lisa boldly declares her love for cream horns (yes, she's eaten one), while Allison wonders if they're simply too faffy for the average baker. The girls sift through Jasmine's repetitive flavors, debate her soulless bakes, and side-eye her first-place finish in the technical. When it comes to the macaron showstopper, Lisa's thrown in the piping bag, but Allison's swooning over their adorable potential. With Tom's chocolate beehive abuzz with brilliance, the girls speculate if he's about to clinch bake-off glory. Faffery, flavor drama, and plenty of pastry puns—this episode is as rich as a crème diplomat!Connect with us:https://soggybottomgirls.com Follow us on social media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/soggybottomgirlsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/soggybottomgirls/

App-based taxi company Uber have launched a new accessibility tool for assistance dog owners. The optional feature allows people to self-identify within the Uber app, which will inform drivers that they are traveling with their dog. The aim is to offer riders better support and to try to combat trip refusals. General Manager of Uber UK Andrew Brem tells In Touch how people can use the feature and how it will contribute to their combatting of refusals based on assistance dogs. Fancy yourself a keen baker?

Fawlty Towers creator John Cleese recalls being told his nascent sitcom - 50 years old this year - would fail if they didn't "get it out of the hotel more".

Meanwhile Hugh Dennis is not on tour, but he's on stage, as Rev Chasuble in the National Theatre's production of The Importance of Being Earnest - he may not be planning to go all churchy but he does feel right at home in clerical garb. With music from Editors front man Tom Smith with a track from his forthcoming album There Is Nothing In The Dark That Isn't There In The Light and from Natalie Duncan Trio with her new single Breakaway before her London Jazz Festival gig.Produced by Olive Clancy

It's Dessert Week in the tent, and The Soggy Bottom Girls are serving up some seriously sweet (and slightly scandalous) opinions. Lisa and Allison dive into the mystery of the Basque bake — and after a few “why would you?” moments, they unanimously bin Tom's black-as-night creation. A steamy bain-marie debate bubbles up next, with both hosts declaring it more trouble than it's worth.When the gluten-free pudding technical rolls around, Allison's war on oranges continues, while Lisa questions the timing (and the taste appeal) of a gluten-free dessert challenge. Finally, the girls tackle the towering trifle showstopper, sparking memories of 90's wedding gifts and questionable jelly layers. Tune in for laughs, light roasting, and the crowning of another Star Baker — because this week, it's all about keeping your custard in line and your trifle standing tall.Connect with us:https://soggybottomgirls.com Follow us on social media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/soggybottomgirlsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/soggybottomgirls/

Chill your butter because it's pastry week in the Bakeoff tent! The Great British Bakeoff returns with a delightfully British pastry week, full of lamination and esoteric bakes. You don't want to miss the sculpted tarts and sausage roll creations!

This week we're doubling up the drama (and the sugar) as we dive into Dessert Week and Pâtisserie Week from Series 16 of The Great British Bake Off! From burnt Basque cheesecakes and wobbly free-standing trifles to towering macaron sculptures, it's been a wild ride on the road to the final. Mirandia and Ben break down who rose to the occasion, who melted under pressure, and which moments had us shouting at the screen. It's two weeks' worth of pastry, panic, and pure Bake Off chaos—served with a side of laughter and a dash of judgment. So grab a cuppa, settle in, and let's talk all things sweet, stressful, and semi-final-worthy! PS. Ben says "IT IS NOT A QUARTER FINAL!!". 

Mary Katharine Ham, FOX News Contributor, OutKick columnist, and co-author of End of Discussion, joined The Guy Benson Show today to share the story behind her spot-on Great British Bake Off themed Halloween costume with her husband. She also weighed in on the ongoing government shutdown, blasting Democrats for refusing to pass a clean CR and holding Americans' SNAP benefits hostage. Ham explained why President Trump's push to eliminate the filibuster to reopen the government is a bad idea, and would effectively reward Democrats for their shutdown antics. Mary Katharine also broke down the high-stakes Virginia gubernatorial race between Abigail Spanberger and Winsome Earle-Sears and why Jason Miyares could defy expectations and beat scandal-plagued Democrat Jay Jones.

October is almost over so we watched a horror movie about a relationship that's almost over, 1981's "Possession" directed by Andrzej Żuławski.In addition to talking about this compellingly confusing film, the hosts also discuss: Medieval Times; cosmic horror; attractive aliens; The Great British Bake Off, Alien: Earth; and boobie movies.(NOTE TO LISTENER: the audio gets choppy around the 40m-60m mark and I wasn't able to fix it entirely so apologies in advance) Hosted on Acast.

‘Desperate Housewives' star Teri Hatcher joins the show. Over crispy trout and ribeye tibs, we talk about her new ‘Desperate Housewives' rewatch podcast, Desperately Devoted, which she co-hosts with her on-screen and real-life daughters. Teri opens up about revisiting Wisteria Lane with fresh eyes and how her 27-year-old daughter's modern perspective reshapes her understanding of the series. We also dive into her lifelong love of food — from culinary school to winning ‘Chopped' and baking in ‘The Great British Bake Off' tent — and how cooking has always been her love language. Teri talks candidly about aging in Hollywood, and about discovering new creative energy through a new hobby: stand-up comedy.

Grace is serving up some of her old favourites to curl up to as autumn turns to winter. Cosying up with Grace is none other than the queen of baking and all our hearts – Nadiya Hussain. The Bake Off star, whose triumph in the tent launched a TV, writing and culinary career of which dreams are made, is dropping by Grace's home to share her loves, her hates and her strategies for managing a house of teenagers. Over a plate of something so comforting you could curl up in it, Grace and Nadiya get down to brass tacks. Family, husbands, school and crisps – all the main bases – and there's no shame allowed.

It's Pastry Week in the tent, which means laminated layers, questionable butter strategies, and at least one soggy bottom. Allison and Lisa roll out their thoughts on the seven sacred pastries (and the eighth, Pillsbury Crescent, obviously), while investigating Toby's neck beard, Natalia's giant collar, and whether Prue secretly runs an accessories empire. The gals debate the merits of tofu pies, gooseberries, and pork-filled mystery tubes from the '80s, all while cheering on Jasmine's pastry hat trick and mourning Natalia's polite farewell. From sculpted tarts to hot water crusts, this week proves once and for all: flakiness isn't just for pastry—it's a lifestyle.Connect with us:https://soggybottomgirls.com Follow us on social media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/soggybottomgirlsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/soggybottomgirls/

Sharpen your number 2 pencils and sit at your desks because we're back to school in the tent! Great British Bake Off is making nostalgic treats that are sure to bring you back to your school days.

When Nadiya Hussain competed on The Great British Bake Off in 2015, it seemed like all of Britain — from self-proclaimed #Nadiyators to the prime minister — was rooting for her. Since then, she's hosted TV shows, written best-selling books, and become a household name in the UK. But the transformation we focus on in this conversation is the one that has taken place within her. She talks with Dan about growing up in a British Bangladeshi family where no one baked, developing recipes based on the food she ate as a child, and speaking up about racism and sexism in food media.Every Friday, we reach into our deep freezer and reheat an episode to serve up to you.

For many, “The Great British Bakeoff” is must-see TV – and watching it has taught us a lot about food.

Tune in as Mama D (Petals of Support) returns to the program for a breakdown of The Babadook, the 2014 horror movie about the supernatural terror that a widowed single mother and her six-year-old son contend with after reading a children's pop-up book about a top hat-wearing monster. Reading Samuel as autistic, the burdens of motherhood, children preventing their parents from getting a restful sleep, and the thematic connections between The Babadook and “The Murmuring” from Guillermo del Toro's Cabinet of Curiosities make up some of the talking points for this episode.Written and directed by Jennifer Kent, The Babadook stars Essie Davis, Noah Wiseman, Hayley McElhinney, Daniel Henshall, Barbara West, Ben Winspear, Cathy Adamek, Craig Behenna, Hachi, Tim Purcell, and Chloe Hurn.Spoilers start at 28:50MONSTER - The Babadook Short Film by Jennifer KentCreate your podcast today! #madeonzencastrHere's how you can learn more about Palestine and IsraelHere's how you can keep up-to-date on this genocideHere's how you can send eSIM cards to Palestinians in order to help them stay connected onlineGood Word:• Mama D: baking reality TV shows like The Great British Bake Off and Holiday Baking Championship• Arthur: Kill Your Friends and Escape RoomReach out at email2centscritic@yahoo.com if you want to recommend things to watch and read, share anecdotes, or just say hello!Be sure to subscribe, rate, and review on iTunes or any of your preferred podcasting platforms!Follow Arthur on Twitter, Goodpods, StoryGraph, Letterboxd, and TikTok: @arthur_ant18Follow Arthur on Bluesky: @arthur-ant18Follow the podcast on Twitter: @two_centscriticFollow the podcast on Instagram: @twocentscriticpodFollow Arthur on GoodreadsCheck out 2 Cents Critic Linktree

It's Chocolate Week on The Soggy Bottom Girls, and things are getting decadent! Lisa and Allison swoon over the adorable mini mousse creations that could pass for fancy café drinks, while Lisa treats us to a nostalgic 90s-style jingle for Nestlé chocolate. The girls can't help but raise eyebrows at Aaron's melted mousse mishap, and debate whether mousse should ever look like pudding.In the technical challenge, Allison applauds the blind judging for bringing a rare moment of fairness to the tent, leveling the playing field. Pantry doughs come up in conversation as the girls discuss the importance of having a go-to pastry base, and they both agree: fruit tarts are white chocolate's best friend.The fondue showstopper brings on a flurry of chocolate fountain chatter (cue the fondue puns), and the girls wrap things up with high praise for Alison Hammond, who continues to shine as a delightful partner for Noel.Connect with us:https://soggybottomgirls.com Follow us on social media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/soggybottomgirlsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/soggybottomgirls/

The classroom is open and the girls are back in session! With Allison out for the week, Lisa welcomes special guest and honorary Soggy Bottom Girl, Emma—a British baker living in Pittsburgh who's here to decode the mystery of Back to School Week on The Great British Bake Off.From flapjacks that aren't pancakes to school fêtes (yes, that's pronounced “fate”) that involve coconuts and queens, this episode is a deep dive into British school traditions that had Lisa more confused than a Bake Off contestant without a proving drawer. Emma breaks down the brilliance of golden syrup, the chewy magic of a classic traybake, and why British school cake comes slathered in custard—not frosting.The two swap stories about school snacks, fundraiser fatigue, homemade sprinkles (yep, we've made them!), and the cultural differences that had Americans asking: “What even is a flapjack?!”Spoiler alert: it's not what you eat at IHOP.Connect with us:https://soggybottomgirls.com Follow us on social media:Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/soggybottomgirlsInstagram: https://www.instagram.com/soggybottomgirls/

In their heyday of the 1970s and 1980s, there were more than 200 - possibly more than 400 - feminist restaurants and coffee shops in the USA and Canada. These places were aiming to change ways of working, and upend the hierarchies of restaurants; to provide food that was ethically sourced and affordable to customers, while providing staff with a decent wage; to signal to particular kinds of people that a space was specifically for them. They didn't always succeed, and often they didn't last for more than a couple of years. But they sure did try things. Dr Alex Ketchum, author of Ingredients for Revolution, a History of American Feminist Restaurants, Cafes, and Coffeehouses, explains the ups and downs of how these places used words.Visit theallusionist.org/breadroses for more information about today's topics, plus a transcript of the episode.Support the show at theallusionist.org/donate and as well as keeping this independent podcast going, you also get behind-the-scenes info about every episode; livestreams with me, Martin and my ever-growing collection of dictionaries, and the charming and nurturing Allusioverse Discord community, where we're watching the current season of Great British Bake Off, and donors are learning that apparently it is a surprisingly productive source of writing inspiration for me.This episode was produced by me, Helen Zaltzman, on the unceded ancestral and traditional territory of xʷməθkʷəy̓əm (Musqueam), Sḵwx̱wú7mesh (Squamish), and səlilwətaɬ (Tsleil-Waututh) Nations.

Susie learned about a shocking situation developing at a French aquarium housing killer whales where animal rights activists caught the trainers, um, handling the whales to alleviate adult desires brewing between the whales. We hear why it's happening, and why it's so upsetting (beyond the obvious). We discuss the situation between 74yo former NFL coach Bill Bellichek and his 24yo girlfriend, why we can't decide who the villain is, and why it's flipping the script of May/December romances. We learn the story of the Great British Bakeoff, why they take casting so seriously, and why the bakers hold disdain for a particular type of cast member. Susie talks about the lawsuit against airlines who charge people for windowless window seats on flights, and why we think it'll shake up the industry. We learn why many adults are ordering kids meals and why Sarah won't do it. And we discuss whether it is important to be able to read an analog clock and write cursive, and why learning handwriting is about far more than it seems.Brain Candy Podcast Presents: Susie & Sarah's SpOoOoOoOoktacular Spectacle, October 30, Oriental Theater, Denver, Colorado: Get your tickets!

Watching the film Legally Blonde one day with the subtitles on, numerous perfectly innocuous words were partially asterisked out, because of a technological problem I can't name here lest this episode be blocked from your podfeed, thus becoming an example of the problem itself.Who's to blame?
