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.
QUICK PUKESOME BEG: If you had a spare few pennies a month I’ve set up on this amazing site called Patreon where I can swap really fun extras and perks with you, in exchange for financial help with continuing and growing this mighty podcast – thank you in advance – have a look
This week I’m joined by the bonkers and beautiful anarchist cook and DIY Chef himself, George Egg. George is a totally creative mastermind. I won’t even start on how he cooks me what he cooks me but ever wanted to know how to make chive oil? Perhaps learn the most interesting thing about apples EVER? No. Then sate yourself with the fact that potentially, George’s original inspiration and mentor – was a cannibal. Maybe. And his answer to my final question was VERY surprising.
