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 the mega-lovely, wonder-chef Dave Coulson off of The Great British Menu. We met in his glorious restaurant in Newcastle called Peace and Loaf. I love bread and I hate wars, so I knew I’d have a great time. I brought him a disguising durian fruit which caused a stir and a stink in the kitchen - fun to be the one bringing some drama. And he made me something incredible out of the bits of pigs that are usually destined for the dustbin. He’s so fun and honest about what his local Michelin star inspector looks like and all the acute cuisine he feeds his son (not). This one was so fun and exciting to record. We met in a working kitchen, so there’s some background noise, but who cares, ey.

0:14.6	Welcome to Hoovering, the podcast about eating. I'm Jessica Bostigue. I love eating as much as
0:25.3	anything else in the world, but also it sometimes brings me conflict, shame and all sorts of other
0:31.6	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.
0:47.4	Hello, how are you? First things first, you guys. I've got my first ever live hoovering show coming up. It's lunchtime on the 6th of October
0:55.5	and it's part of the Manchester Podcast Festival. I've got guests from Coronation Street and
1:00.6	Bake Off and brilliant podcast, All-Killain-O-Filler. If you can get to Manchester that day, I would love

1:22.8	the hoovering pod. Thank you, thank you, thank you. This week's episode was so, so exciting. I don't know if you're
1:29.7	watching BBC's Great British menu, but it's wicked. In the North East Rams at the beginning,
1:34.5	there was this super kind and creative-seeming chef called Dave Coulson with his own restaurant in
1:39.5	Newcastle called Peace and Loaf. Incredibly, he agreed to talk to me. Not just that, but to feed me. Get in.
1:46.7	An early heads up for the first time on this podcast, and in my life actually, for a really, really,
1:51.7	really long time, I ate meat on this day. I explain in the episode why, but basically I think
1:57.7	it's amazing that Dave uses bits of animal that otherwise were destined for the bin.
2:01.6	And it felt like one of those rare treats of a time.
2:04.8	I always thought that very occasionally in situations where it's someone's absolute speciality,
2:10.1	and especially when I know things have been super ethically sourced, I will try meat.
2:15.1	I hope you're not rooted by that.
2:16.8	And if you are, you just have to accept my
