Hoovering - Episode 98: Michael Chakraverty

Hoovering - Episode 98: Michael Chakraverty

By Jessica Fostekew

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.


I’m talking in the last Hoovering of 2019 to the beautiful man and exquisite baker, star of this series of Bake Off just gone, Michael Chakraverty. We get deep into Bake Off gossip, mental health and we both make shortbread from the same recipe. I’ll give you less than one guess whose biscuits ended up being delicious and whose were embarrassing. 


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