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 sisters in comedy (and life) Flo and Joan (or as they’re known in real life, Nicola and Rosie). These sick, funny bastards came round to mine for a mushroom risotto that I winged, I’m afraid - so no recipe. I had a mushroom glut and I made it up as I went along. They brought me homemade chocolate brownies and we talked about everything from sticking an octopus up your arse to Rosie telling me exactly how she’d butcher me and which bits she’d eat first. Oh God. (This was a funny one)

| 0:25.6 | else in the world, but also it sometimes brings me conflict, shame and all sorts of other things that are rubbish. |
| 0:33.5 | 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, Hoover. |

| 1:26.8 | Please. This week's guests are the mighty funny dark bastards, Flo and Joan. Sisters in comedy and in life, in real life, they're called Rosie and Nicola. I recall the emotional roller coaster of a Mackey Dees, and these guys tell me a real-life horror story about an explosive mushroom beast. They teach me that |
| 1:45.2 | mushrooms are shrimps of the earth. Hanger is real and Rosie really enjoys telling me exactly how |
| 1:52.1 | she'd butcher and eat me. Correct. This is a fun one. They came round mine for a mushroom |
