Wanted to luv this but…
Why do comics have to express their political opinions? You lose at least 50-60% of an available audience. How dumb are you????Trump all the way!!! I’m outta here. Good riddens‼️😂😂

Can’t Take The On-mic Eating
Tom Papa is great, so are his guests but I can never make it through the on-mic eating. No one likes that. This podcast would be ten times bigger if they’d knock that off.

People eating while talking is disgusting
Great show, but every time I hear the guests start eating I turn it off. One bite is fine but when they are talking while swallowing, it’s an instant unfollow. Don’t know how you will do so but please update me if you change this in the future.

Always delicious
Loved the episode with Aaron Weber. Saw him with Kathleen Madigan in Durham. Glad he’s moving forward!

Take the bread home
I couldn’t listen to them chew and speak on mic at the same time. I guess I’m not into asmr. The audio is gross.

Dad jokes that kill
I don’t know if I’m more jealous of your wife or your daughters. I wish this guy was my husband, or my dad. There are so many good episodes! The Burt Kreischer, Lisa Kudrow, Maron, and Feimster ones will make you feel the love

Grateful Bread Tour Concert
I went to Tom Papas stand up show in Thousand Oaks a couple nights ago. He was HILARIOUS. I love it that he came out to the merch table and signed books, shook hands, and took pictures. What a warm, down to earth, friendly, talented man. I will drive the four hours to see him again!

Bye Papa
I deleted your podcasts…..you lost 3/4’s of your audience. I do not want to hear your political opinions. I voted for and support President Donald J. Trump 100% . Put that in your oven and bake it!
You are suppose to entertain us not give us your political opinion. Plus ….I support Mr. Elon Musk 110% for what he is doing for our country!

I look forward to Tom’s podcast every week. Love conversations with smart people! Tom creates a nice warm space where it feel great to laugh along. And dog stories are always fun too.

A breath of fresh air
With all the confrontational bro podcasts trying to be edgy, it’s nice to hear nice people having polite, funny and enlightening conversations. Tom even inspired me to take up bread making.

Corruption in plain sight is not forgiveness, Jim.
Gaffigan white washing the cronyism of corporate Dems like Schumer or criminals like Eric Adams, an obvious sign of corruption, while praising Trump, makes me want to puke. Has he ever heard of Opus Dei?

Great podcast!
Tom is an excellent and funny ( and kind) interviewer . Great guests and conversations!

Stop saying YEAH!!
Stop saying yeah 5,000 times a show. Literally after every word it’s yeah. Interrupt constantly saying yeah. It’s insufferable !!!!
ANSR2NO1
Love the guests and format-small note
Tom you are my favorite! Small note saying yeah, right after every sentence from your guests when they are talking. It seems disinterested and distracting. I beg you, please allow some time for silence when people are talking. Then respond.

Awful
Meandering conversations filled with interruptions. The most boring podcast I have ever heard

Fantastic podcast

Amazing podcast
One of the best podcasts on the planet. The recent interview with Julie Bowen was hysterical, and was reminiscent of the episodes with Kira.

Hooray for a comic with a podcast that’s smart
Great podcast. There are wayyyyy to many bro boy uninformed male comics w podcasts getting paid for idiocy’s

Episode 231: soft eyes
The chemistry was rizz ( not really, kids ) and thanks to Tom's soft eyes Jessimae takes us on a nostalgic regeneration.

Let the guest talk!
Tom. PLEASE try not to chuckle and comment through the guest talking It is literally hard to hear what the guest is saying through your constant chuckling. Try silence The Kimmel interview was so annoying and hard to listen to even though his stories were fun and interesting.

Nice Podcast
I listen to it pretty often.
LIKEGHEE
Tom is great! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
I am a comedy fan since I was a kid!
I love Tom!
I was over the moon when Kyle Kinane talked about how much he respects Tom on You made it weird.
sucknit
Great show.
I love listening to the conversations that Tom has with his guests. You can tell they really enjoy talking to him and it does not feel forced

Love Kira
Always love his comedy and Kira is amazing
Regular 23
Great interview bad sound quality
This show could be so much better if the guest had a microphone and could be heard. The parts that I could hear were great but the sound is inconsistent and I missed out on so much of the dialogue that I finally turned it off.

My favorite podcast - even with Kira
My favorite episodes are the ones without Kira. I love listening to Tom’s conversations with restauranteurs and the perils of missing a payroll or having to show up early to your favorite eatery before the senior citizens eat all the spare ribs.
There is the original Breaking Bread with Tom Papa, in which you actually feel like you’re sitting at the table in some gritty dive with the best food in town, an up-and-coming sommelier, and a celebrity patron list that would make Chasen’s weep. Papa has a podcast gift of creating an intimate setting for some great conversations.
Now there’s Breaking Bread with Kira. The intimate dinner conversation is gone. The dive speakeasy is gone. It’s basically Kira whining about PTA meetings and kiddie birthday parties. But Tom’s still there and he’s still shining. Just less so.
Tom, if you’re reading this, no offense to Kira. But your original format was ethereal *and* gritty. Addictive. Please consider going back.

Go It Alone 2
I agree with the other guy. Tom you don’t need the other guy. It’s your slow, not Kira. I had to stop, switched the listen. What ? You don’t need to piggyback Tom. Kira you can get your own podcast.

Great podcast
This podcast makes me laugh and feel hungry 😁

Go it alone
Love the the show Tom but please spare the winy drivel of Kira!.
You can hold you own on the show with interesting guest.
Kira just takes the ambiance away and just keviches and moans and about EVERYTHING and if I have to hear about her checking her kids butt I am going to smash my my car radio. You were much much better alone. Please tel her to stay home or get her own podcast she adds nothing to what was once a great great podcast!!!
I have stopped listening an worst stop buying all the great products you promote.
Long time fan and listener

Tom you are a great example of a beautiful person,man,husband,father, and of course Comedian. Love the show and all the great people and places you introduce and reveal to me. Great interview style. I have listened to every one.

Thought provoking podcast
So far this has been a great podcast and I love Tom Papa. His podcast (IMO) had broadened my thinking and solidified thoughts and beliefs. It’s fun, interesting and thought provoking . Kudos to Tom for being more patient with the fringe opinions of some of his guests and friends that I wouldn’t be able to tolerate. Lol. (Like episode 23- solidified my thoughts about who Rogan is; and reinforced why I don’t like him)

Tom’s enjoyment shines through
Really enjoy the show. Tom Papa’s approach both food and people as genuine, curious, and fun really shines through. You can learn, you can laugh, you’ll be exposed to cool ppl and their stories. Tom - you should try to setup an episode with someone from the Southern Foodways Alliance! They’re an awesome organization and I think you’d dig their approach to food media and scholarship. They do a pod called Gravy…check it out

Great Show
Tom Papa brings warmth, humor and humility to this podcast. He seems genuinely invested in learning about his guests and gives them the space to share so listeners can get to know every person. His love of food and family is infectious!

Breaking Bread with Tom Papa
Been loving this podcast. Delightful listening during pandemic. Host, Tom Papa is witty and charming, and the exchange with his guests are lighthearted and fun. The guy is sweet - and, being that my name is Tom and that my (5) sons call me Papa, I feel like I have a brother in spirit

Great podcast!
As a baker who feels I missed my calling in stand up, this podcast is one of my favorites! The conversations are always interesting, great to listen to while I’m baking.
