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 having a fish finger sandwich over the zooms with brilliant comedian, actor and artist, Annie McGrath. Fish finger sandwich was the brief, and you’ll be impressed how differently we both went within those beautifully simple parameters. Also, best story of a fight over eating that I’ve ever heard, ever.
