…there won’t be a Season 3.

This is an amazing compliment to a wonderful show. Absolutely masterful interviews with interesting people. Each story was as inspiring as Julia Child.

Loved the show, the cast, storylines, period sets. Enjoyed the podcast after each show to hear from the creators and people she influenced. It’s a real loss that it is not going to continue. Praying another streaming platform picks it up.

This podcast just makes the show even better— which is no easy task with such a beautiful show. I love weaving in interviews with chefs. Such insight into a world I don’t know a lot about. Shame on HBO Max for not giving Julia a third season! I’ll miss the show but maybe they can continue the podcast as a deep dive on Julia?

Season 2 was such a delight! Character development was deep and memorable. Production values wew huge. How can so much wonderful artistry be met with cancellation? I am bereft…

I do enjoy the synopsis of the episodes and the insight from the actors and staff. There are always tidbits of information that I either missed or is new that adds to a deeper appreciation of the characters and the work that the team puts in. The guests are always answer fully and are quite conversational, however the delivery of the questions tend to be quite stark. The questions, although thoughtful, are delivered as just questions whereas they could be a bit softer and more conversational or even give the appearance of inquisitive or of interest. Regardless, I listen to every episode.

What a wonderful second season of this terrific show! Kerry Diamond and her weekly guests really add valuable insight and compliment each and every episode. I appreciate the production value which Max affords this show. The plot line of Alice Naman really warms my heart. Brittany Bradford is crushing it. Now THAT is an engagement ring! I truly hope that Max renews it for a third season!!

Always a deep dive into the back story of each show and getting to know the creators. So enriching. E3 E2. Expertise, perfectionism and enthusiasm. These are the qualities of all the contributors to Julia. E4 So timely and important to link the topic of birth control 60 years ago to today’s legal crisis. Pointing out through drama that loved ones will meet you where you are is a poignant lesson. Also appreciate Lost Kitchen’s Erin French’s emphasis on simplicity and hospitality. Episode 5 is pure gold. The writer and director describing the challenges of creating the twins story, the praise for Mr. Pierce for his thorough research into the brothers’ relationship and the subtle facial expressions to distinguish Paul from Charlie. Grace Young’s story about Julia’s influence, and her support of Chinatowns during the pandemic. ‘Little bits of good.’ Much talk about moms throughout this episode. Just splendid. Episode 6: David and Fiona are a mutual admiration society. Lovely to hear them lavish praise on cast members and other people in their lives. Jacques contributed to the cache of personal stories about Julia. Episode 7: Alex, Charlie’s grandson coaching Mr. Pierce about the two men and their relationship?! There could be no better expert on all the Childs. Plus his love of history and putting the two White House events in context. Loved the true story of Zephyr, her role with the Johnson family and influence on the making of the Civil Rights legislation. Kerry Diamond and her staff have produced illuminating episodes worthy of this shining example of television at its very best. Kerry also has a very pleasing voice which is no small thing in the world of podcasts.

Amazing reflections from the actors coupled with what’s going in the food & cooking world today!

Bravo 👏🏻👏🏽 Such a joy to watch and feel like I’m right there I savored every episode Bon appetite 🥂Cheers to all Every aspect is incredible

A little slow and boring. No real production insights. Nice to listen to but was expecting more. Adding here. The one great thing this week was that you realize how good an actor David Hyde Pierce is because in real life he is absolutely nothing like Paul Child. It was really enlightening to hear his real persona

Love learning about the BTS of making the show. Lots of interesting guests from the food world are sprinkled in. Really well done!

Enjoyed Ms. Diamonds’s questions to show creators and special guests. Great companion to “Julia” which is a great show!

I love your show. It's both uplifting and informative. Listening to you and your guests about the ins and outs of the production makes me want to rewatch each episode! Thank you. 🍁🍂

Sadly Missing The Star of Julia … you need to do a podcast with the brilliant Sarah Lancashire.

The podcast certainly expanded my knowledge and appreciation of Julia Child. As Enlightening and entertaining as the series.

If you’re a fan of the show, you’ll love this podcast. Beautifully done.

Love this podcast and the show. The show means so much to me in so many ways! Thank you for the wonderful work.

I loved every bite of this series and podcast! Thank you!

Love this podcast. Cari does a great job and the insights are the best.

I am now officially obsessed with Julia Child! This podcast was a perfect companion to the show. My favorite episodes were with David Hyde Pierce (Fraser fan!) and with Brittany Bradford who brought an often overlooked perspective/storyline of a fully formed African American woman in the 1960s. Growing up in the 80s with all the PBS (way before Nickelodeon!!) chefs I would write down the recipes and attempt to make them at home. Julia Child was a favorite and she will be forever remembered 😊

I love this show so much. It is a much needed salve to the soul. I am beyond happy that it has been renewed for a second season, there is so much more story to tell. Thank you for bringing her delightful self into my home

I loved the episode with David Hyde Pierce and Julia’s nephew. It almost brought me to tears a few times! I am so loving this podcast!

Well done. An exceptional podcast. Thank you.

Love, love, loved Kerry Diamond’s interviews on all 8 episodes of the podcast. As an information junkie I’m so glad that there’s more information about Julia and Paul in the podcast that is not reflected in the series. I’ve been raving to anyone that will listen about how great the series is. It does my heart good to watch such an uplifting show. I recognize that the historical figure of Julia it’s just part of the shows magic. The artistry, writing, producing, and directing are the ingredients that make the show unbelievably amazing. And it has created a curiosity that I never realized I had on how to cook and bake a stupendous meal. Of course I’m ecstatic that there will be another season. Tell the HBO executives I applaud their intelligence.

Having the accompanying podcast makes the show that much more enjoyable. Love learning of the backstory. So glad it’s been renewed for a second season.

Love this insider look into the world of all thing “Julia.” Such thoughtful interviews with interesting people. Keep them coming please!

Lol , until Julie & Julia, I’d never heard of ‘Julia’… grew up on a farm & never considered us ‘foodies’ or my grandmother’s mother & aunts great cooks(they cooked dinner) & Sunday chicken & dumplings to die for… the Saturday pot roast didn’t everyone have that?😝… so I’ve been following Cherry Bomb podcast & now the Companion & THANKS 😊 so much… I didn’t learn to cook til my first husband passed away 2008 …& now… Ina Garten Rachael Ray … dinner is where it’s at … what’s for dinner 🍽… so thank you 🙏 sincerely Ronda Barr

Fantastic interviews and insights. Reveals some hidden gems of the life snd times of JC. Great conversations and questions. Thanks so much!

Love the series and love the podcast! Can’t wait for each episode

Five 💎’s for this one!

The show is certainly, fine. I just had such high expectations since it’s an HBO official companion piece. I looked forward to my morning walk the day after AJLT and the Gilded Age, because the podcasts were entertaining and informative. The hosts and guests were enthusiastic and passionate and I always learned so much from those, I haven’t picked up any fun facts or Behind the Scenes tidbits in the Julia one. It’s a meh for me.

Kerry Diamond is a professional interviewer with a beautiful speaking voice. I love all the stories about Julia Child.

Enjoying the conversations… but missing the star of the show. Sarah Lancashire is doing a brilliant job. I hope we get to hear from her

I am so in love with this show and very grateful there is a podcast to celebrate it! Thank you!

What a delightful way to spend an hour listening to stories of Julia, laughing with Ina, all put together by the wonderful Kerry Diamond. Just the cherry on top of the sundae given to us by HBO with their terrific show “Julia”.

Wonderful show. Julia Child’s life is fascinating!!

The new Julia show is great but the podcast makes it even more interesting. Kerry does a great job hosting. If you are a Julia fan, foodie, fan of behind the scenes then take a listen.

What do Julia Child, Kerry Diamond and butter have in common? Julia always uses it in recipes and Kerry’s voice sounds like it! After discovering her podcast Cherry Bomb I was delighted to not only hear about this new delightful HBOMAX show, but this companion podcast which serves as a nice digestive! Kerry is a great interviewer of the show’s writers , producers, food stylists and others including Ina Garten who share a love of the joyful, iconic and groundbreaking Julia Child.

The Absolute best show I have seen , and it’s only released 3 episodes so far!!! This podcast is such a delight because AS you’re watching you wonder about the history that is mentioned, you wonder about the FABULOUS writing- so it’s extraordinary to hear this podcast in companion to this show. I was not surprised at all there there is writers room overlap between Marvelous Mrs Maisel - I said to myself out loud : “I knew it!” When I heard from a writer on the pod . Thank you for making this! 5 stars- wish I could give you more 🙏

Julia Child, Kerry Diamond, and Ina Garten all together! This is going to be amazing!
