Hoovering with Jessica Fostekew

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.

In this episode I’m talking to a very funny comedian and amazing documentary maker Jamali Maddix. He came round for a hot Indonesian salad and we got into everything from pernickitiness through the literally the least possible moral options when it comes to eating.
