Hoovering - Episode 67: Konnie Huq

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 joined by seriously cool presenter and activist, Konnie Huq. We discuss everything from theories of ‘just enough’ to opening the cleaning cupboard and taking a deep breathe in just for the ZING. I know. Also, lets be honest, she basically interviews me. And somehow manages to keep her clothes on. Everything written below in CAPITALS is a link to the relevant webpage. Tickets to see Hoovering LIVE in 201926th MAY - WELLS Comedy Festival - Guests are incredible and being announced super soon9th JUNE - UNDERBELLY Festival Southbank - Guests are Sara Pascoe, Tom Allen and Liam Charles (off of Bake Off and ‘Liam Bakes’)MORE to be announced very soon including shows at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival on 12th & 13th at 3pm so if you’re there then - make a note! RecipeWas the 'dark blueberry bran muffins' from the seriously brilliant SHORT & SWEET book by Dan Lepord Honourable MentionsKONNIE is so social media and more importantly has a flipping book out right now!
