The Comfort Food Podcast

This week on the show, we're Matt Diamond and Chris Nickle have a very candid conversation about what they've been sipping on during lockdown. We also hear from Sara George, founder of "Beer Betches", a sisterhood of beer drinkers dedicated to the pursuit of all things craft beer.  The audio on Matt's chat with Chris is a little poppy and choppy. Please excuse this one!  Music heard in this episode c/o:Tijuana Jesus and Cheryl Ireland.

This week, we’re baking homemade bread with Matt’s dear friend and former Co-Host of “Knobs” Chris Nickle

Matt and his wife Karlie have a very laid back chat about how their family is doing in the midst of all of this.

On episode 6, Matt indulges in one of his very favourite comfort foods of all time... The Taco.

On this episode, Matt reads your Facebook comments on how isolation can be the perfect time to get in the kitchen and cook up something great. We find out how you're coping and what you're eating!  This episode features music by: Crossdog: https://crossdog.bandcamp.comKen Tizzard: https://kentizzard.com

On this episode of The Comfort Food Podcast, Matt and his friend Pete take a road trip! Their original plans to drive to Nashville were halted due to a tornado in the area, so they made a shorter trip to Buffalo, NY. What better city to dedicate an episode to the Buffalo Wing? Matt and Pete are joined by Marc Moscato, a local tour guide with Buffalo Bike Tours, and wing aficionado. Marc invited the boys to an amazing spot called Gene McCarthy's to try their signature wings. Matt had some technical hiccups unfortunately, but he sure learned a lot on this trip.  Music featured in this week's show also comes from Buffalo!  SMUG: https://smugtheband.bandcamp.comGHOSTPOOL: https://ghostpool.bandcamp.com

Welcome to the first season of The Comfort Food Podcast! Kicking off this series, host Matt Diamond is joined by his friends Donald and Gord to talk all things sandwich. Or maybe a “Sam-Wich.” The backdrop of today’s chat is downtown Peterborough, Ontario at Sam’s Place, “The Best Dan Deli In Town.” Not a typo. Dig in, you’ll get it. Bun, bread, meat or whatev... today, it’s all about the Sammy. Stay Hungry.

Food. Family. Music.  This is the Comfort Food Podcast
