On your mark. Get set. LISTEN! Our podcast loves the “Great British Bake-Off” — or “Great British Baking Show” for us heathen yanks — and we especially adore the amazing bakes that its contestants have put out series after series. For this episode, host Eric Rezsnyak and panelists Amma Marfo, Curtis Creekmore, and Kara Austin discuss their picks for very best bakes from the "Great British Bake-Off" (at least, from the seasons that have aired in the United States). These tarts go from sweet to sour over secret squirrel cakes!
