The Cooks CommunityAuthor: Dr Nathan Cook
The Cooks Community podcast is a place for us to share discussion. I want this space to be somewhere people can come for inspiration, to listen in on a conversation and hopefully learn something in the process. The Cook N Goals show interviews motivated people who are following their passion, HDR Brews speaks to academics about their area of research and Penne & Red Sauce discusses an area of Sports Nutrition. More episodes to come, enjoy.
