Summary
Welcome to HOOVERING, the podcast about eating. Host, Jessica Fostekew (Guilty Feminist, Motherland) has a frank conversation with an interesting person about gobbling; guzzling; nibbling; scoffing; devouring and wolfing all up… or if you will, hoovering.
It’s the 100th ever episode! So I’ve answered your requests and got a guest a number of you have asked for - the absolutely brilliant Ruby Tandoh. Bake Off star and writer - author of the most brilliant book about eating I’ve ever read so far, Eat Up. We met in the lovely swanky Acast studio and talked about everything from rules to social media to marrow to Minstrels.
Everything written below in CAPITALS is a link to the relevant webpage.

Honourable Mentions
You have have have to read Ruby’s book EAT UP, it’s genuinely extraordinary. Beautifully written and compelling and magical and full of the most brilliant ideas.
I would very much love to have you come and see my stand up show HENCH, which is at the SOHO THEATRE in London from now until 25th January (with extra shows added now on 24th & 25th Jan) and then I’m off on TOUR all around the UK, IRELAND and MELBOURNE.
Outside of that I’ll be doing new material gigs and I’m always sticking new dates on MY WEBSITE so have a check. The Hoovering Live dates go on there too.
We mention the incredible HEALTH AT EVERY SIZE
And the utterly excellent ELLYN SATTER
If you’re looking for other resources to help sooth your friendship with eating in the midst of diet culture hell the back of RUBY’S BOOK has an invaluable reading list in it.
We give PRET a little shout out and also the funniest podcast anyone has ever heard ever
