OUR FIRST EVER EPISODE! WAGYU, SAKE & STRONG OPINIONS | MATT TEBBUTT & OLLY SMITH
Thursday, September 17, 2026 β’ Duration 37:57
SECRET LIFE OF FOOD PODCAST IS HERE! π½οΈπ₯
Β
Matt Tebbutt and Olly Smith have been mates for over 25 years. In that time, theyβve eaten, drunk and tasted their way around the world, picking up plenty of stories, strong opinions and a few questionable food habits along the way.
Β
The Secret Life of Food isnβt just two experts sitting around telling you what you should eat. Itβs two old friends who know their stuff, love food and drink, and arenβt afraid to disagree.
Β
Theyβre diving into two iconic Japanese food and drink traditions: Wagyu beef and sake. Matt explores the history and genetics behind Japanese Wagyu, why it can be so expensive and whether it really lives up to the hype. Olly turns his attention to sake, exploring its 2,000-year history, how itβs made and why itβs actually more closely related to beer than wine. And
sake isn't just for sushi. The pair explore some unexpected pairings, including smoked fish, ham, cheese, tomatoes, mushrooms, charcuterie and Wagyu.
