Hoovering - Episode 86: The Hungry Feminist

Season 1, Ep. 86

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 is an extremely special episode - it’s a crossover with another podcast - the MIGHTY GUILTY FEMINIST! I KNOOOOWWWWWW. So this one-off podcast is actually called ‘The Hungry Feminist’. We recorded it live infront of a full house in the huge space at Kings Place in Kings Cross, London. And my GOD did we have a hoot. You’re going to love this. Pretty cocky about that you know, right from the off. 


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