The OG crew has joined forces for the first time in a long time to bring you this weeks episode of Around The Dinner Table. So much has changed since Cheire, Lorne and Cam all sat down for a podcast and so much continues to change and grow in the Pepper & Me, Cain & Abel and Fat God scene!

Cherie has lots to report since getting back from New York, insights into where to eat, what to see and stories in between. Now the whole team is back, its full steam ahead to our birthday month in August, with our plans for a big birthday bash and also a book launch being refined every week! Sit back, relax and enjoy!

If Lorne could clap on cue, this episode might've started a whole lot smoother... Welcome back to the Dinner Table with Lorne, Em & Cam.

This week we're unpacking the latest NZ brands making headlines for all the wrong reasons, Em discovers a few eye-opening farm-to-plate (and farm-to-fashion) facts that somehow escaped her until now, and Cam brings a collection of "interesting" facts that are all equally questionable.

Then we make the mistake of asking one of the most controversial questions imaginable... what is the most elite type of bread? It's a bold debate to have without Cherie at the table.

Pull up a chair, settle in, and let us know where you stand.

Welcome back to the Around The Dinner Table Podcast! This week, you're joined by Cherie, Em and Cam.

We get a little deeper than usual as we unpack the age-old question: does money really buy happiness? And at what point do you decide you have enough?

We also recap our time at Fieldays, chat about Pepper & Me's upcoming 10th birthday celebrations, and share the excitement around our latest collaboration with Pics Peanut Butter.

Plus, we tackle a very important debate: what is New Zealand's most iconic food? Unsurprisingly, Em and Cam can't seem to agree on a single answer.

Welcome back to the Table! Pull up a chair and join Cherie, Lorne and Em this week.

We're talking wine, what's your go-to? Are you as hopeless as Em when it comes to ordering a bottle at a restaurant? Have you ever confidently ordered what you thought was a white, only for a red to arrive at the table?

Meanwhile, Cherie is counting down the days until New York, but securing a reservation at the restaurants on her hit list is proving harder than anticipated. And if she does manage to get a table, can she afford to order a $50 martini?

Grab a drink and join us Around the Dinner Table.

Welcome to our new Around The Dinner Table location! We've moved into our new content studio, where we are transitioning to for all things podcast and social media!

We jump right in this week with homemade artwork for the podcast room while we seek better sponsorship from our favourite coffee brands. Cherie enlightens us about peptides from the neighbour down the road, unsure about this one but she has assured us they are not illegal.

Cam sets us up with the great battle of cuisines, having us unpack what cuisine wins across the globe. As per most our conversations, it's not all straight forward and the cuisine war is still up for debate.

Pull up a seat and join us at the table!

This week on Around the Dinner Table Podcast, things quickly turn into an awkward realisation that we don’t actually know as much about our own anatomy as we thought we did.

Plus, we chat about our latest binge-watching obsession, Cherie's date night, we share an update on the new content house and changes coming to our podcast, we announce that we're coming to the Fieldays and touch on an exciting new product collab with another Kiwi business.

This week on Around the Dinner Table you have the pick and mix combo of Cherie, Cam and Em . Cherie takes us through her Italian adventures, we unpack the dramas brewing in the chef world, deep dive into the origins of olive oil, and question why the simple European way of living feels so appealing. A little food, a little controversy, and a lot of yapping as always.

We’re back in your ears with a BANG this week!

Short & sweet, but definitely not shy of giggles, gossip and goings-on at Pepper & Me HQ.

It’s Winter Range launch week, we unpack whether AI is taking over the food space, Em questions if she picked up diseases from Hamilton, and what on earth has been going on with Lorne lately…
