30.06.2026 | 46 Min.
Before he became one of the internet's best-known fish experts, Andrej was stuck in a corporate career that left him miserable. In this episode of the Good Food Podcast, he shares the remarkable journey that took him from spreadsheets to Le Cordon Bleu, opening his own oyster bar, becoming one of the world's few certified fish sommeliers, and embarking on a mission to cook every fish species on Earth. Along the way, Sam and Andrej discuss why the UK has such a strange relationship with seafood, why his GP told him to eat less fish, and the unforgettable meal that first sparked his lifelong obsession with the sea. Expect plenty of laughs, strong opinions on fish and chips, and a confession involving KFC that's almost as surprising as his love of chicken feet. Whether you're a seafood fanatic or someone who's only ever ordered cod and chips, this is a fascinating conversation about curiosity, craftsmanship, and finding the courage to completely change your life.

This week on the Good Food Podcast, Sam sits down with Australian food icon Donna Hay to talk about her new book Sunshine, Lemons & Sea Salt, the stories behind her signature style, and why sharing food is always better than serving individual plates. From turning down a job offer from Martha Stewart to creating one of the world's most successful food magazines, Donna reflects on the career-defining moments that shaped her approach to cooking, publishing and creativity. She also shares the inspiration behind her Disney+ series Coastal Celebration, explains what makes a recipe truly TV-worthy, and reveals why she's encouraging a new generation of cooks to put down TikTok and pick up a trusted cookbook. Along the way, there's plenty of laughter, a passionate defence of pavlova, a disastrous barbecue that ended with the fire brigade kicking down her front door, and an unexpected deep dive into the Australian love affair with Delta Goodrem. Plus, Donna takes on our quick-fire questions, reveals her favourite recipe from the new book, and explains why good food is really all about good memories. Learn more about your ad choices.
