Quick one. My team tells me we actually have very few reviews relative to the weekly audience

numbers. This is no doubt my fault, as I've always felt a little weird about asking you

to do something for me. But clearly, if you don't ask, you don't get. So if you're enjoying

the show, if it's providing you value, please take 30 seconds and leave a review on Apple

or Spotify. In doing so, you'll help the show rank higher, which means we can continue

to attract the brightest and most trustworthy people in science. My team and I have big

plans for the show where we want to be in 24 months and we need your help to make this

possible. As a broadcaster making hardly any money, I would gift friends and colleagues

my banana bread. It got such great feedback that I kind of started thinking, wow, like

maybe I'm onto something and yeah, it just kind of blew up. And I did a test bake sale.

I put this order form on my website and I said, okay, order your banana bread and you

can come pick it up between 10 and 2 on Saturday. And I had to shut down the order form because

I got so many orders and I baked throughout the night and I was like, hey, are people

going to put their money where they're mouth is? And everybody came to pick up and there

was just really reviews. So it was just good kind of test for me to make me feel comfortable

and moving forward to the business. So I started off with one cafe and I was making one

loaf at a time in my 500 square foot apartment and it just grew and grew. And I mean, our

big goal is really just to prove that there's no compromise when it comes to vegan baking.

That's Aaron Island and this is the proof podcast.

And here we are back again for another episode of the Plant Proof Podcast. And yes, this

is Simon Hill is your host. I'm really, really excited to share this episode with Aaron

Island. You're going to absolutely love it. And it's just great to be here with you.
