Hoovering with Jessica Fostekew

Hoovering - Episode 185: Live @ Underbelly Festival 2021

Season 1, Ep. 185

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 WINNER of Bake Off 2019, author of three books no less and absolute brain box about health AND fellow Catford resident, David Atherton. He made me the loveliest afternoon tea I’ve ever had actually lads. In his dreamy home. Which was walking distance from my home. Christ. I’m living the dream. 


Everything written below in CAPITALS is a link to the relevant webpage. 



Honourable Mentions/ Links


Jay’s new book CHEWING THE FAT sounds extraordinary - as are, frankly, all his other books. Get it now. And if you don’t follow him already, he’s magical on TWITTER


And probably best you get over to Jo’s INSTAGRAM now too for a laugh, why not! 


I’ve updated my website with a bunch of PREVIEWS OF MY NEW STUFF some with some extremely brilliant and famous friends which I’d love to have you join me at.
