Recipe Club

by The Ringer

This season, Recipe Club goes to the movies! Dave Chang, Chris Ying, and a cast of special guests scrutinize the culinary cameos you can’t get out of your head. They go deep on why these scenes stick with us, why they make us hungry, and what they get right (and wrong) about eating.

What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

Enjoy the pod a lot (I'm already a Rewatchables and Big Pic fan, so this season is fun to me!), but the mic/audio quality is so much lower than other pods I listen to. I'm not an audiophile, but it's super noticeable. Tinny, picks up lots of background rustling, and I have to crank the volume. Consider mic upgrades!

No offense to David Chang, but I really feel like this show benefits greatly by having Chris as the host. If I’m being honest, I’ll read the description before listening to see if DC is on it, and will skip if that’s the case. He does a great job with the Dave Chang Show, where he can delve into deeper subjects, but I really appreciate the levity that Chris brings to this one!

Del winklestar · May 2025

Dave and Chris changed the format of Recipe Club for Season 4 - and the podcast is all the better for it. It now combines all the best elements from earlier seasons with useful information and recipes that you’ll actually want to try. And there are still lots of laughs. I look forward to Recipe Club appearing in my feed every week.

I love this show so much. While I often do learn a few things about the ingredient or cooking methods (they are PROs, after all!) what I really love is just listening to the banter, sometimes I don’t even know what they’re cooking. I know there’s a lot of ppl put off by the swearing, but that’s what I love about these guys…they sound EXACTLY like me and my friends. David Chang is an evil genius and Chris Ying is the perfect foil. Dudes kill me every time. Don’t ever change!!

SF4aces · Feb 2025

Season one was GOAT. Everybody made all the recipes and talked about their modifications and it was hilarious AND helpful. Then that was too much work, so they kept changing the format in a way that made it less work for the hosts but worse to listen to. Now season 4 is just…no recipes at all? No cooking? I don’t care about chefs’ opinions on movies, I care about their opinions on cooking. Really feels out of touch and not worth my time.
