This week we are joined with season 2 baker TIM who joins us for a conversation about eagle brand & cuisinart corporate sponsorships, Cooking Mama, Sweeny Todd and Timothy's secret thievery. We discuss if Amanda is a LOTR fan and Bruno becoming a # lardlover. Don't look up that hashtag...

Also, we recognize that there are some issues with the audio quality in this episode. Wifi connections and trans-Canada zoom calls can complicate podcast creation. Thank you for your understanding and enjoy the show!

Whoopsie! This is a re-upload. We accidentally uploaded the wrong audio file and briefly had the unedited version of this episode available. Sorry for spamming your podcast feed and for anyone who attempted to listen to the unedited audio. We are learning how to podcast on the fly. Thank you for your patience!

Alumni bakers Dev and Tim have a meandering conversation about spicy memories, who on the season 5 cast owns a dog, Dev's shaky knowledge of maritime geography and the dexterity of badminton players wrists. We get to know who will be baking in the tent for season 5 of a show about great Canadian bakers. Please ignore the robot noises coming from Timothy and his computer. He's working on fixing it, it we assure you. Music from Chris Collins, https://indiemusicbox.com
