Stephen Fry loves Spanish food so we served him Basque-inspired tapas | Dish Podcast | Waitrose

[@maetaylor5677]

I love how they consider what the guests like and try to please them. This always looks like such a welcoming atmosphere. One of my fav podcasts.

I also really admire Stephen Fry, I’ve enjoyed his other books on the Greek legends. I live in Tasmania. My grandson started speaking with an upper class British accent and it was because he was listening to the Harry Potter books narrated by Stephen.

[@Intellectuallyanidiot]

I could watch stephen all day on any subject. The man is a natonal treasure. So Intelligent and easy to listen to.

[@andrewgoddard6116]

Bless this man. He's contributed more than most (not holding him up to the pantheon of nurses etc but bare with) but joy, care and enhancement in a unique way and he still worries about how the public judge him when going about his life. The two sides to fame... I wager one side is worth the other but hard for him to compartmentalise as essentially a household name for the last 40 years. My dearest Stephen you can have both so relax x

[@KP-nf4yl]

Never knew horses and mayonnaise had so much in common: they know if you’re frightened of them. 😂 In the 1970s, I became a devoted fan of Greek Myth through the works of Edith Hamilton. Lucky younger generations to learn them through Stephen Fry: one of the best gifts the UK has given the world. Bless him all the way from Virginia, USA. 🙏💙

Stephen is absolutely right...

I've always enjoyed the show just as a podcast and loved how the interview flows as an organic conversation really, but in video I now notice how the hosts balance it out with some commentary on the food or 1-on-1 conversation between the two of them to allow the guest some time to eat without having to chat! How perfect. Mr Fry charmingly knowledgeable on anything as usual...
