Too many interruptions from host

Michelle Obama is great as usual. She doesn’t need all the prompts and superfluous interruptions from the host.

Loved the intimacy of each interview

Will there be more episodes? This was a great way to hear about celebrity lives on a personal level.

Add this to your podcast rotation!

Michele Norris on the mic is perfection. Great questions, great conversation. Your Momma’s Kitchen starts with a question that’s both simple and complex, and that opens the door to a thought-provoking journey. I learned something new Michele Obama, and wandered down memory lane thinking of my own mother’s kitchen. I can’t wait for the next episode.

Chef’s kiss!

The palate cleanse we all need. I knew it would be good because, Michele Norris, but wow! It’s beautiful in so many ways and has so much depth. It’s both relatable and eye-opening. I’m hungry for more! Lol!
