Top Chef, the cooking competition show on Bravo, offers as many thrills and upsets and as much talent and intrigue as any pro sports league, so why shouldn’t it get the Sports Talk treatment? 

That’s why PACK YOUR KNIVES was launched in 2017 -- a weekly podcast of hot takes and analysis of Top Chef action, including interviews with Top Chef contestants, mock NBA-style drafts, ‘fantasy Top Chef,’ and even Quickfire and Elimination stats & analytics. 

For the eighth season of Pack Your Knives, two-time Top Chef contestant Eric Adjepong joins PYK co-founder Tom Haberstroh to recap Top Chef Season 22: Destination Canada. In addition to Adjepong’s analysis and insights, the PYK team will also expand its coverage with data whiz Carly Levitz, who will share her data-driven revelations and beautiful infographics with the audience.

More than anything, Pack Your Knives will serve as a clubhouse for all things Top Chef, a place where those who believe that Top Chef is one the greatest contributions to reality TV, foodie culture and celebrity chefdom can hang out and entertain themselves — and each other. 

“ … it’s perfect. I usually only listen to podcasts with at least three jokes per minute, but this is my one exception: a data-driven, smart-guys-talking situation about one of the best food competition shows on TV.” -Bon Appetit’s Best Food Podcasts of 2023

“...the weekly Top Chef recaps combine fanaticism with sports-style analytics.” -Selected as No. 9 on People Magazine’s 50 Food Faves of 2023.
