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 hoovering with beautiful artist, writer and broadcaster Scottee. What a bright, funny and BRILLIANT soul they are. We get into everything from Catholic guilt, expectations of fat people right through to sausages in hot cross buns. Yeah. It’s a LOVELY one.
