We're pleased to announce our judges for KCRW’s 10th annual Good Food Pie Contest to be held at UCLA's Royce Quad. On  Sunday, April 28th  these luminaries—including some of LA's best bakers, chefs, and media personalities—will join together in vigorous debate to decide on the rightful winners of our  nine categories .

This year's cast is mix of familiar faces and distinguished new guests such as David Chang , Genevieve Gergis,  Sally Camacho Mueller , Nyesha Arrington , Lucas Peterson , Josh Barro, and more. More names will be added to this list in the coming weeks, so keep your eyes peeled.

If you’re a baker, it’s not too late to sign up for a chance to impress our judges!
