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 brainy poppet, Pierre Novellie: Comedian and host of ‘My Favourite Podcast.’ He teaches me what a ‘braai master’ is, while we eat my accidentally ‘crumbed’ vegan burgers. We spend most of this conversation getting filthy-honest about binging and the agony of choice, whilst also really really making each other laugh.
Honourable Mentions
This is what Iceland ‘No Bull Burgers’ look like and my God, they were AMAZING. I’ve since fed them to various carnists who’ve all loved them.
That film I watched on Netflix and part way through realised was probably utter bollocks was called ‘What the Health’
Recipes
Here’s the website where I found the vegan ‘beef’ burgers which totally fell apart but tasted really, really good.
OH, And
If you’ve got a spare few dollars a month I’m on a brilliant site called Patreon where I exchange for rewards including exclusive content for your hard earned cash which means I can keep doing and improving the podcast. Click on the word Patreon, either of them
