Hoovering with Jessica Fostekew

Hoovering - Episode 94: Live in Manchester

Season 1, Ep. 94

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’s episode was recorded live from Manchester’s brilliant Lowry Theatre back in October. We recorded so much extra content as well that there’s going to be a mini episode exclusively for $10 patrons coming out in December in addition to all the very funny wonderment contained in this main episode. My guests are the mighty writer and former rock star Alice Nutter and also stand up and actor Amy Gledhill. Local. Bloody. Heroes. Mate.

Tickets to see Hoovering LIVE in 2019


The next Hoovering live is in LEICESTER on 9th February as part of their excellent comedy festival! It’s an afternoon job and you can come and see my work in progress and then my Hench show afterwards on the same day. Anyway - click the big Leicester for hoovering tickets. Come come come! 



Honourable Mentions


We recording at the lovely LOWRY THEATRE


You should absolutely be following AMY GLEDHILL and ALICE NUTTER on the socials to keep up to date with the brilliant work they’re creating. And go and see Amy in her amazing DELIGHTFUL SAUSAGE at the Soho and on Tour! 


AND Amy’s supporting me on my tour look! Come and see us both please:


I would very much love to have you come and see my stand up show HENCH, which is at the SOHO THEATRE in London for three weeks of January. Perhaps get a ticket for someone for Christmas? Yes please. It’s all sold out for October now I’m afraid. 


Outside of that I’ll be doing new material gigs and I’m always sticking new dates on MY WEBSITE so have a check. The Hoovering Live dates go on there too. 


The food we ate was from PIZZA EXPRESS and made by CLAIRE GOODWIN and also lovely listener Barrie White. 


We discussed the mighty CHICAGO TOWN pizza


And then there’s the excellent M & S
