Fork’s Sake is a New Zealand food podcast serving up celebrity interviews, unforgettable stories, and a healthy dose of Kiwi humour, one meal at a time.
Each week, much‑loved TV personality Suzanne Paul and singer, performer, and passionate foodie Andrew Papas invite a well‑known guest to pull up a chair and share the meals that shaped their lives. From childhood comfort foods and family recipes to dishes linked to career highs, heartbreaks, and life‑changing moments, Fork’s Sake uses food as the gateway to conversations that are funny, heartfelt, and surprisingly revealing.
With Andrew’s confidence in the kitchen and Suzanne’s proudly simple approach to food, their warm, curious, occasionally chaotic chemistry makes every episode feel like a long lunch with old friends. Expect big laughs, nostalgic tangents, honest reflections and the kind of stories people only tell when they feel at home.
If you love food, storytelling, and hearing New Zealand personalities talk about life the way it really is, Fork’s Sake is your seat at the table.
New episodes drop every Tuesday.
