Guillaume Boivin is back with Lisa and Cristina for a rich, raw, and joyfully unpredictable second interview. In this episode, Guillaume opens up about life after The Great Canadian Baking Show, his work as a psychologist and advocate, and the emotional story behind one of his bakes: a tribute to a close friend. While the show touched on the moment, Guillaume shares what he wished had been included, and why it matters to speak honestly about grief and mental health.

We also dive into the lighter side of life post-show: the unexpected whirlwind of social media, his spicy sense of humor (intentional and otherwise), and the ever-growing fantasy of Pedro Pascal joining us in the tent. There are laughs, innuendos, and genuine reflections on what it means to show up as your full self - flour-covered hands and all.

Plus, Guillaume offers heartfelt advice for the Season 9 bakers, who’ve just wrapped filming and are soon to share their journey with the world.

This conversation is everything we love about Guillaume: sincere, irreverent, thoughtful, and thoroughly delightful. Come for the feels, stay for the giggles—and maybe a cinnamon bun.
