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.


I’m seeing this tough old month out with one of the most brilliant, fascinating voices of revolutionary dissent from the horror that is the norm - Dr Joshua Wolrich. He has fishcakes and I have a brownie and we get into everything from the whole world of #nutribollocks a term that he coined to call out all the BS spouted even just by other Doctors about nutrition right through to the equally important topic of where to buy the actual best balsamic glaze. He’s got a book out, I had no idea when I booked him to hoover with - but he’s got a book out that got announced 48 hours ago and is pre-orderable now - and I reckon once you’ve listened to this you’re going to want to read it. I know I can’t wait.

Welcome to Hoovering, the podcast about eating. I'm Jessica Bostikyu. I love eating as much as anything else in the world. But also, it sometimes brings me conflict, shame and all sorts of other things that are rubbish. It's complicated and I think fascinating. This is a conversation with an interesting soul, not just about food, but about gobbling it up, or if you will, hoovering.

1:52.0

Holy smokes, lovely ones, we are seeing this frankly dog shit month out with the best possible bang.

I'm hoovering with one of the most brilliant, fascinating voices of revolutionary dissent

from the horror that is the norm in medicine, Dr Joshua Woolrich.

2:10.0

He's masterminded the hashtag Nutri-Bollocks, and he's a dedicated caller out of the bullshit information about nutrition and weight stigma.

2:20.9

That is everywhere. He's also just the most articulate, grounded, and informed realist. I loved

2:26.4

being able to pick his giant brain. Also, I had no idea before I begged him to be my guest,

2:32.7

but it's actually also got a book out this flipping week.
