An Australian Food Podcast from the Deep in the Weeds Network.

Anthony Huckstep pulls up a chair in kitchens, dining rooms, and farms across Australia for Deep in the Weeds-A Food Podcast with Anthony Huckstep. This isn't about surface-level reviews or trendy recipes. Instead, each episode digs into the real stories and hard-earned wisdom of the people who make our food culture tick. You'll hear chefs recount the pivotal failures that shaped their careers, listen to producers explain the visceral challenges of farming with the seasons, and get honest reflections from front-of-house staff on the beautiful chaos of service. The conversations are intimate and meandering, often uncovering the personal philosophies and quiet obsessions that drive people in this demanding industry. By focusing on these substantive dialogues, the podcast reveals the connective tissue between the grower, the cook, and the guest on the restaurant floor. It’s a series for anyone who believes food is about more than just consumption-it's about community, craft, and the sometimes messy business of hospitality. Produced by A Deep in the Weeds Production, this ongoing audio documentary offers a genuine, unvarnished listen, straight from the source.
