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.
This week I’m talking to brilliant comedian and co-host of the awesome podcast ‘Daddy Look At Me’ with Rosie Jones its the never not hilarious Helen Bauer. We decided to eat the most ‘last resort/ to of date’ stuff in our store cupboards. With some wine. Lets just say it went better for me than for Helen.

Honourable Mentions
Follow Helen on TWITTER because she’s awesome. And listen to her mighty funny podcast with Rosie Jones called DADDY LOOK AT ME.
My live stuff is obviously all on hold but I’m in two series on telly at the moment, THE TROUBLE WITH MAGGIE COLE on ITV Hub and TRIGONOMETRY on the BBC iplayer. Also I’m part of the writing team between a new series called SUSAN CALMAN: SOCIALLY DISTANT on BB Iplayer for everyone and BBC Scotland for the Scottish Land.
If you have any spare dollar in your life the first thing I’d like you to do with it is give it to either a food bank like the TRUSSELL TRUST.
If after giving to them you’ve still got more spare dosh to give a month I’m on this great site called PATREON where I swap your money for ace podcast related stuff like totally exclusive content and guest recipes. It’ll help me keep the podcast not just alive, but also thriving. Thanks so so so much if you’ve become a patron recently and/ or stuck with me since the beginning of this.
We mention the boozes of our youth HOOCH, REEF and CARIBBEAN TWIST
I toot an amazing London supermarket chain called the Turkish Food Centre or TFC
We couldn’t let easter pass without mentioning MINI EGGS
There’s the ever present DOMINOS pizza
And if you’d never heard of SHAKEAWAY prepare for your life to improve fro now on.
