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.

Recorded back in October now (madness, sorry, we waited to release this until now so we could shout that she’s writing a book) I had the absolute privilege of going round to her for brunch and Ahhhhh it was SO YUMMY please.
