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 my guest is someone I’ve had more requests to have as a guest than anyone else - someone whose genuinely trying to change the world for the better and who is treating the world for the wounds it currently has when it comes to poverty and specifically what poverty means for eating. It’s the funny and formidable Jack Monroe.
Honourable Mentions
Jack’s stuff that you should check the f**k out of are: the blog where it all began COOKING ON A BOOTSTRAP. To buy Jack’s amazing new book of the same name CLICK HERE and whilst you’re at it Jack’s on PATREON as well.
The totally delicious vegan cheese we were eating is called TYNE CHEASE
The vegan chicken stock is called OSUM but I can’t find a link to anywhere online - but Jack said you can find it in the kosher isle of international supermarkets. If I find some I’ll be sharing where I did!
Tickets are on sale right now and are flying fast for the next HOOVERING LIVE SHOWS at the lovely little Hen & Chickens Theatre in London. Snap some up.
AND if you wanted to come and see me try new material in London I’m running gigs in Camden for various comedians trying new stuff - go here to WE GOT TICKETS and search for Honers Club - all the dates will come up!
