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 hoovering a really beautiful lunch that I’m confident will have made me live forever with my old friend, the very talented actor, writer and farter, Jo Bowis. She’s written a stunning Mamoir about her road to motherhood which I’ve read now and is funnier than it is brutal- absolutely joyful I found it and deeply refreshing. Much like the lunch we walloped at Brockley’s trendy pants newish place by the station, Parlez.

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
