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.
The Hoovering podcast turns 3! Almost exactly today. Now - there’s obviously the big official third birthday dinner party episode just been recorded too, but initially that’s just for some patrons - but I didn’t want to leave the landmark unflagged -so what better way to celebrate in these strangely distant times to re-hoover, hoover again, with my first EVER guest from three years ago - the queen of feminism, the always majestic Deborah Frances-White.
