eg portlandNothing else like thisAlways something you would not hear about anywhere else. The Kitchen Sisters don’t disappoint in providing extra interesting topics and people who you will want to research further . I often think how have I never heard about this person after an episode.

AustinnnnnnnnnnnnnnOne of my favoritesExcellent storytelling, editing, and interviews. Radiolab first introduced me to the audio tapestries that are possible on radio / podcast. Kitchen Sisters transports you to hidden kitchens and other oral histories. My favorite episodes are the Sam Phillips episode about Sun Records, and the one about barbecue pits.

Dgh005Thank you!I’m absolutely living for the Hip-hop archive in Harvard. I also really enjoy the diversity of the show in general. From women of different ethnic backgrounds, occupations, history really, coming together and giving them the platform to speak their truth. Keep the diversity going and flowing.

SkavibFascinating stuff presented professionallyThe back stories told in an engaging manner without the narrative containing a single “like” much less 6 in one sentence.

REZNIL JANNERYWonderful production and topicsPlease keep up the great podcasts.

bri73636:-(Disappointing that such an intelligent, humanistic and nuanced audio project would allow itself to serve as the soap box for jingoistic calls to escalate conflict with a nuclear power.

lesamonsterMusic and SoundsBackground music and sounds are too loud and distracting. I had to stop listening.

mmbateLush and delightfulRich audio and storytelling, a treat for the ear and mind

listening with earsFlawed, but worth it for the unique content.Really, really good for the most part. Travels some interesting territory. The sound quality varies, because of the source material, which is understandable. Where the podcast falters is when the hosts interject themselves into the stories or interviews. They bring a certain 'white American crunchy granola NPR cultural tourist' vibe to the proceedings that sometimes just takes you out of story. Beyond that, it's a very pleasant listen and they unearth some amazing forgotten audio gems. Oh,

SAD&trueTOO FASTI love your fascinating podcast but it is VERY frustrating! All episodes are at such a INCREDIBLY FAST speed ,I can’t listen. There is no way to SLOW it down? It is really a shame because it’s a great podcast but almost unintelligible & annoying due to such super fast talking!
-
MaraVladLove this show!!!But I'm always confused as to why it is called "Kitchen Sisters" maybe I am super dumb--but I am guessing that the hosts are sisters, and Kitchen is their last name? Please someone correct me, I'm so confused

LiaPoloKitchen Sisters!Love this discovery! So Delicious-start from the beginning!

Le!$aEnriching information beautifully shared❤️Sooo glad I discovered this podcast!

RosyF50Music Too LoudTried to listen, but I couldn’t. The music is so loud. It’s very good, but the talking is too loud to really focus on it, and it’s way too loud to hear the talking.
-
B(5;7(67;5/Great topics and narrationIntriguing and unusual topics, engagingly told. Well done!

I listened in May, 2020The Pancake Years is a wonderful ode to love and parentsIn the midst of the COVID sequestration, this episode was an audio balm. I loved because my father has passed away, and because I am in my 60s looking back on the parts of my life I’m proudest of. I especially appreciated how Davila’s affection for her father came through in her phone calls back home. This one is a keeper.

LettheonionringSoothing voicesNot only to they pick the buried stories that need to be heard and shared but the KS are voice musicians. Their timing, pauses, humor, storytelling tones bring you up close and comfort.
-
tricky-pAlways, Always a great listen.TKS are the perfect combination of great old school story telling and modern relevant themes. I would not be without this podcast.

Dugan🐈🎧⭐️Top notch 🐿I have spent many hours with this podcast. I look forward to many more❤️
-
Archie MancusoThe Kitchen Sisters PresentThere are some gems here, especially in the early years of the podcast. As time goes on the episodes get bogged down with lots of adds and self promotion. at the beginning, middle and end of each podcast, sometimes adding up to 20+% of each podcast.

jmangeloGets Better and BetterAt one point I listened to most of the offerings of Radiotopia. The Kitchen Sisters is one of their best. I have been with the Kitchen Sisters from the beginning. The episode content is always interesting and production quality is outstanding. These podcasters love what they do and it shows.

🌞KgreeneAn ode to nostalgiaI started listening to The Kitchen Sisters about 2 years ago now. I have now listened to quite possibly every episode that is available on traditional stitcher & apple podcasts. I haven’t found another like it. I’m addicted to the short windows into the past - it’s like turning down and old road and wondering into a hidden realm where you get to sit with these story tellers and watch the film rolls play back. Even hearing the sisters intro just puts me into a better mood! Love love love.

Jay55438Small worldsThis podcast opens you up to small worlds you never knew existed. I love their ongoing relationship with keepers and archivists of all kinds / of all things. I find myself wondering what the future would be like without storytellers like this.

Jalin MaLove these sisters and their kitchenThoughtfully-rendered, uniquely SMART fun. Wonderful show!
-
Steph CozziUnderstands the nuances that matterThe Kitchen Sisters get it. Period. Instead of chasing the popular surface subject matter, they dig deeper to give you an intimate insider’s view. Brava!
-
KHASLGreat narrativesLove these stories! One of my faves.
-
PortfeSuch brilliant storiesThat they chop chop chop chop chop up. Sometimes it works and a gorgeous and comprehensible sound poem/story comes together (Ferlinghetti). Others become so disjointed, mixing the natural organization and progress of the narrative, that I become confused and disoriented, and thus, sad and angry that I can’t have this beautiful story in a manner that is clear and followable.
-
ArtGirlSAHLost fansI’m so sorry but I was so disappointed in this episode. It was my mistake, I thought it was going to be about “fans” as people fans. Every time I fast forwarded, someone was raving about ‘that wonderful sound...’ I love the rest of the episodes I’ve heard from you, but omg, I had to turn this one off.
-
ord/phxGreat podcast!Came across this via “Criminal” podcast. Love the Keeper series! Who ever thought you could do a podcast about lost sounds? I wasn’t sure until I listened to the episode about fans and suddenly heard the fan that was in my bedroom growing up 50 years ago. It was awesome!

CAcationu2Love from my kitchenThis is my favorite podcast of all time. I adore the Kitchen Sisters and as a woman who lives and loves from her Kitchen, it makes me so happy to be able to share you with others.
-
nbsp2Must ListenWow! Some great stories here so compelling that I can't bring myself to delete them. “Cry Me A River" just makes me want to weep over a subject new to me. And I am still surprised that there is a story in Basque sheepherders in the US. But there you have it. Great writing, music, editing. Bravo!

AnacorteshistoryStories!!! I love your StoriesI need to find out how to become a keeper! Keep it up. Please!

gwenjhoffKitche Sisters presentJust discovered the series of podcasts on archivists. Wonderful, fascinating episodes. I wish there were more. Love these ladies.
-
ammcleodJust discovered and already hookedI’m new to the Kitchen Sisters and came here for The Keepers (thanks for the rec, phoebe judge/criminal). I have listened to the two available The Keeper episodes and while I wait for new episodes, I’m very excited to have so many aired episodes to explore!! The format of the episodes and the production value pull you inside the stories as you listen to and learn from first hand accounts. People speak for themselves and the story is genuine. Easily, this has become a favorite podcast despite only hearing two episodes at this point!

kdpbtuvmegcjMore Lost and Found Please!Love this podcast, but the crown jewel is the Lost and Found Sound footage! Perhaps an entire podcast solely devoted to that project? Or just more of it - I have a desperate desire to binge listen that endlessly.
-
bechill59Agree with Ira Glass......Your first episode of The Keepers-best radio broadcast I’ve ever heard. Should be required listening in these chaotic times to remind us of our roots.
-
TonyPoissonLove this podcastExcellent topics and sound design, so engrossing. I wish that the occasional replays of older episodes are marked as “classics”, not marking them seems a bit of a bait and switch. I love the Kitchen Sisters overall
-
Scottsworth36Needs to go more indepth on the topicIt feels as if I'm listening to a preview for a longer story that dives deeper into fascinating stories. What there is of it is fantastic, but it leaves me wanting much more.

Ann from South CarolinaAnnie C Columbia SCWhen I see a new episode, I jump on it like agrasshopper. Have listened to all 87. I cannot find Faces, Mirrors, Masks in podcast shows. Today’s was fantastical...away, away, away!

ReglofloheartNever fails - to entertain/ engage / enlighten / enrich!The Kitchen Sisters story telling rock. I am always intrigued surprised engaged enlightened and entertained by their approach and the message. These stories don't hit you over the head - the draw you in and before you know it ( along with great music and mix) you into a journey of radio storytelling extraordinary rare. Rock on!

SuburbanSeattleiteAn Amazing Find!I love this podcast the most of all my subscriptions. Davia Nelson and Nikki Silva expertly create stories that dazzel my imagination and satisfy curiosity. I love their Hidden Kitchen series and The Hidden World of Girls. They've also mastered a recording style that is very difficult for me to explain but is so captivating; it soothes and pulls me closer to the storyteller all at once. I'm a forever fan and can never have enough :)
