Hoovering - Episode 177: Sunil Patel

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 incredibly funny man and almond croissant disciple, Sunil Patel. He’s a banging actor and comedian and all round lovely man. We sat in our garden and pitted our favourite fancy almond croissants off against each other and because we read a tweet saying to just really enjoy ourselves we did actually.
