This is the inaugural episode of what we hope will be a fun and engaging discussion around a little obsession of ours - the Great British Bake Off.
We kick things off getting to meet our 3 hosts - Alison, Sheldon, and Meredith. Alison is out resident "ringer" she knows GBBO inside and out and will always have the facts when we need them. Meredith brings fun and quirky insights, always making us laugh. She also always has a great way of connecting the outside world to GBBO. Sheldon is the rookie. New to bake off in the last couple of years, Alison and Mere brought him in, taught he the ways, and even got him baking! He also had the beginners luck of winning their little GBBO Fantasy League last season. Alison still things Jergen got robbed.
We pay a short homage to Queen Elizabeth II before diving into the 2022 bakers line up... wait... scratch that... we flip the script and roll right into the draft. Nobody wants to tip their hand! As we choose, we each say why we chose who we did and the others chime in on their thoughts on that choice as well. Like last year - only a little bit of "shucks I wanted them" - as we each see different strengths and opportunities in each of the bakers.
With the teams selected and teams names announced, we outline what to expect in the future episodes - hint, it involves a lot of laughing.
