Hoovering - Episode 82: Margaret Cabourn-Smith

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 episode was recorded in the early summer of this year with the most brilliant actor and exceptionally funny and wonderful human woman, Margaret Cabourn-Smith. I’ve wanted her on the podcast forever because, as you’ll hear, she’s a dream. We were in a play together called Brexit when we recorded this and of course we get into juicy stuff mainly she just makes me laugh and laugh and laugh. Everything written below in CAPITALS is a link to the relevant webpage. Tickets to see Hoovering LIVE in 2019Hoovering is on A WHOLE BLOODY TOUR from the Autumn.
