So September’s here, you can feel it in the air — that little nip of autumn, the hedgerows bursting with the bounty of the season and that unmistakable “back-to-school” feeling. In this episode of Relish, we chat about everything that makes early autumn so special because we think it’s the perfect time to celebrate the season’s harvest, grab a blanket, and head out for a picnic.

You’ll hear us nattering about our go-to sandwiches, the drinks worth packing, and recipe ideas for what to do with all that fruit you’ve picked.

So whether you fancy doing some foraging, picnicking or just daydreaming about blackberry crumble, pull up a chair and join us for another warm, cosy, flavour-packed conversation and some Relish inspiration.

"It’s a hot Summer Sunday, the kitchen smells delicious, and today… we are going full cheese! Six fabulous British cheeses – from crumbly Cheshire to punchy cheddar – all getting the expert taste-test from Charlie in his Great Taste Judge hat. We’re talking recipes, why British cheese matters, the ‘Eat it or Lose it’ campaign, and plenty of laughs along the way. Our herb focus this week is chives – cue plenty of lively, chively chatter as we sprinkle in some green goodness to go with all that cheese. So, grab a cracker, settle in, and join us as we bring out the cheese board…"

This week on Relish, Tracy’s just celebrated a birthday with a fabulous trip to the National Theatre, and Charlie’s been in the kitchen whipping up marmalade and whisky-soaked mini savarin cakes (yes, they’re as good as they sound). We take a delicious dive into our love of fish — from nostalgic beach hut memories and salmon fishing in Scotland, to our favourite seafood dishes and guilty pleasures.

We also explore why ocean health matters more than ever and needs more love from us all — inspired by David Attenborough’s Ocean.

Plus, the herb of the week is dill — it’s ancient, it’s versatile, and it might just surprise you. From Egyptian tombs to Nordic pickles and Indian curries, this feathery little flavour bomb has been seasoning history for thousands of years.

So grab a drink, get comfy, and join us for a chat that’s warm, personal, and packed with flavour. As always, it’s not just a podcast — it’s a place at our table.

Welcome back to Relish Lifestyle with your favourite mother-and-son duo, Tracy and Charlie! After a trip to Wimbledon we are serving up – no not strawberries and cream – but another blind tasting on one of the UK’s best loved picnic snacks, chat about a French favourite ‘the king of herbs’, plus a few guilty pleasures lobbed in for good measure – oh and whatever else might tickle our taste-buds. Game on, forks at the ready... Keep Relishing Life

Bonjour from the Loire Valley (via Charlie’s kitchen)!

In another deliciously relaxed episode, Charlie shares stories from his recent French escape — from sipping Sancerre to visiting Le Pré de Mely farm for olive oil and flour tastings, and exploring the sights, smells and seasonal ingredients of French markets.

We’re diving into rustic French favourites, including Charlie’s mustard marinated rabbit dish and Jura inspired recipe of chicken legs stuffed with Comté and mushrooms. Tracy has also been channelling some French vibes with her improvised Coq au Vin – and shares a French classic to thickening sauces. (Beurre manié, darling.)

There’s a spot of wine tasting, cherry frangipane chit chat, excitement over a new savarin tin (hello, more cakes), oh and we share some foodie guilty pleasures!

Tune in for tales, tips, tartlets, and a healthy dose of culinary chaos.

And as always, continuez à savourer la vie💛

Welcome back to Relish Lifestyle with your favourite mother-and-son duo, Charlie and Tracy! In this deliciously random episode, you’ll find them bouncing banter around from eating Italian in London to Charlie’s steak tartare oopsy in France. Cooking Portuguese pork and clams, is it cream or crime when cooking a carbonara? Oh, and it’s Charlie’s turn to have a little moan but what about? As always it’s rich, it’s random, and it’s fun—so sit back and relish in listening to Relish.
