Hoovering - Episode 140: Phil Wang

Season 1, Ep. 140

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 lovely, funny, extremely clever sausage off of Taskmaster as well as a hundred other cool things, comedian Phil Wang. And under the urging of former guest, amazing chef Sven-Hanson Britt, Phil and I are eating chocolate on toast. Well. On crumpets. Dinosaur shaped crumpets.

Excuse me but if you’re not already following PHIL WANG on social media, sort that out. That’s also where you’ll find his rescheduled TOUR DATES. He has a truly glorious filthy podcast called BUDPOD which he does with the excellently funny former hoovering guest PIERRE NOVELLIE


I’m on this great site called PATREON where I swap your money for ace podcast related stuff like totally exclusive content and guest recipes. It’ll help me keep the podcast not just alive, but also thriving. Thanks so so so much if you’ve become a patron recently and/ or stuck with me since the beginning of this.
