Who says too many cooks is a bad thing? Jeff & Ryan welcome the lovely Lesley Nicol to a special episode of MASH Matters. Lesley originated the role of Mrs. Patmore on the critically-acclaimed PBS series Downton Abbey. We discuss her journey to Downton Abbey, a slightly ominous encounter with an Oscar-winning actor, animal activism, her one-woman show, and whether or not she’s a good cook in real life. She also reveals her favorite Mrs. Patmore line and teaches us how to make a proper cup of tea. This episode also features a special appearance by Ryan’s wife, Julie. Where else can you hear from two of TV’s most iconic cooks on one podcast? Only on MASH Matters!   For show notes, episodes, recipes, bios, and more visit <a href= "http://www.mashmatterspodcast.com/" rev= "en_rl_none">www.mashmatterspodcast.com</a>
