Summary

Welcome to HOOVERING, the podcast about eating. Host, Jessica Fostekew (Motherland) has a frank conversation with an interesting person about gobbling; guzzling; nibbling; scoffing; devouring and wolfing all up… or if you will, hoovering.

In this episode, playwright and comedian Katie Mulgrew (winner of the Liverpool Hope Playwriting Prize) lets me come round to hers, in Manchester, for a midnight feast of gin and biscuits. Should you ever dunk a biscuit in gin? Learn how to stop soup tasting of ‘thick air’ and it’s taken four episodes but finally, a guest is gloriously non-plussed by what I’ve brought them to eat.
