It's [Bill Nye](https://www.billnye.com/?ref=cascadepbs.org) the Science Guy! Nye has spent decades using his special brand of high energy humor to educate folks about science, so obviously he can get real nerdy when it comes to the science of baking bread.

Nye shares his precise recipe for the perfect baguette and then gets into a mini debate about cannibalism with host [Rachel Belle](http://www.hellorachelbelle.com/?ref=cascadepbs.org) (any guesses who is for and who is against??).

Then Janine Marsh, editor of [The Good Life France](https://thegoodlifefrance.com/?ref=cascadepbs.org), and Steven Kaplan, world renowned expert on French bread, join the show to talk about how important the baguette is to the French, but also why French folks are eating and baking far less bread than ever before.
