If you don’t know what crossfit is it’s the type of PE I’ve been doing for the last two years and it’s about weightlifting, gymnastics, mobility and fitness. It gets you in the everything basically but the focus is on functional performance, there are no mirrors, for me I’ve found an incredible community including a new set of real life actual friends. Anyway - once a year there’s a competition that anyone can enter called ‘the open’ and then it’s whittled down to the most insanely fit and strong few people in the whole world and they go and compete in Madison, Wisconsin at The Crossfit Games. A 5 days mega competition where all the events are secret even until the last minute. Now - Lucy made it to the games this year as a rookie and has just, this August, been crowned the 16th FITTEST WOMAN IN THE WHOLE FUCKING WORLD> She’s a baby but competing with giants and she still managed to actually WIN 2 whole events even. She is: INCREDIBLE. Anyway - she’s based in Nottingham and today’s hoovering is with her.

We check I’m not racist, share harrowing fireworks trauma and then get tits deep into fat activism and I learn a bunch about the difference between ‘fat liberation’ and ‘body positivity’ - I’ll be honest, I’m absolutely down with both but Sofie makes some fierce and always very funny points. Everything written below in CAPITALS is a link to the relevant webpage. Tickets to see Hoovering LIVE in 201916th FEB - MAPS Festival, NEWCASTLE 3rd MARCH - LONDON. Vaults Festival30th MARCH - GLASGOW International Comedy Festival RecipesI made us a beautiful (if I don’t say so myself) aubergine, apple, walnut and toasted cumin salad which I found online. The recipe is HERE. And the tasty plantain chips we had were from PURELY, I’ll be straight up though, they were a rip off from PLANET ORGANIC. I love that shop so much, it’s like heaven - both in terms of how nice it is and regards how much it’s somewhere I just have to aspire to be able to spend any serious amount of my time one day in the future. Honourable MentionsHer book is out in May but you can pre-order it now and there’s a stand up and book tour surrounding that which I implore you to go and see Sofie at and check out her podcasts: Made of Human and the Secret Dinosaur Cult. The easiest way to get all those things is by going to Sofie’s WEBSITE.This picture of what Danes call VIENNA BREAD will make your eyes cum. If you haven’t eaten a CHICKEN SUPERNOODLE you haven’t lived.The Danish sandwich place Sofie mentions in London is SCANDINAVIAN KITCHEN and the swanky restaurant is SNAPS + RYEHere’s a DANISH APPLE CAKE which actually looks quite a lot like a Dorset apple cake.

Vaults Festival30th MARCH - Glasgow International Comedy Festival RecipesI made the recipe up for what we ate but essentially it was vegan shepherds pie with roasted veg. The pie was a base of brown and green whole lentils cooked very slowly with onions, celery, tiny carrots, herbs and then stock reduced until the lentils were firm but it was in a sort of gravy. Then the top was mashed sweet potatoes because that’s what I had in. The roasted veg was broccoli and halved sprouted done for 25 mins. Honourable MentionsGO AND SEE GRACE PETRIE doing tour support for Frank Turner or on the Lefty Scum Tour in March. And please please come and see me in Leicester too!

We met in his glorious restaurant in Newcastle called Peace and Loaf. I love bread and I hate wars, so I knew I’d have a great time. I brought him a disguising durian fruit which caused a stir and a stink in the kitchen - fun to be the one bringing some drama. And he made me something incredible out of the bits of pigs that are usually destined for the dustbin. He’s so fun and honest about what his local Michelin star inspector looks like and all the acute cuisine he feeds his son (not). This one was so fun and exciting to record.

Real life eating expert, Sophie Medlin. We have a picnic in a classroom at KCL, where she lectures. We eat loads, while I learn loads: this is a myth-buster-episode-extraordinaire. From the importance of breakfast to some ironically cruel behaviour from vegans. Honourable MentionsHere’s a link to the Kings College London Nutrition and Dietetics Department, seeing as Sophie waved the flag pretty hard for that as a potential career. And here’s the Guardian article by the magic Grace Dent about the perils of being veganish. Recipes I made Hugh Fernley-Whatsit’s carrots with almonds and cumin. I’ve found the recipe online here, but in the one I used (from the book: Three Good Things) there was a bonus tip if you’re eating this cold to add segments of orange flesh if you wanted. And I had one in, so I did. And the vegan potato salad I brought was from a wicked blog called The Veg Space. I didn’t have any cress to lob all over it and that was fine.

We spend most of this conversation getting filthy-honest about binging and the agony of choice, whilst also really really making each other laugh. Honourable MentionsThis is what Iceland ‘No Bull Burgers’ look like and my God, they were AMAZING.

I AM SO LUCKY. Originally from Malaysia she’s lived all over the world and her cooking is a thing of absolute gorgeousness. Her departure from Masterchef was a thing of slight turmoil which Zaleha is disarmingly gracious about but you’ll hear me getting pissed off on her behalf. We go into depth about Malay food and there’s an excellently punchy expose about Zaleha’s youngest daughter’s time as a vegetarian. My mouth and brains both learn so much over the course of this conversation, I feel totally spoilt and honoured by the end of it.Honourable MentionIf you’re based in the UK check out Zaleha’s supper clubs The Malaysia Kitchen UK OH, AndIf you’ve got a spare few dollars a month I’m on a brilliant site called Patreon where I exchange for rewards including exclusive content for your hard earned cash which means I can keep doing and improving the podcast.

There are some shout outs to Cariad’s very own 1950s wife Ben and hell hath no fury compared to her absolute distain for avocados. She gives us so many hot tips. And listen to the end for some bonus cameos from my housemates. Honourable MentionsDoughnut Time UK is where the beasts were from. And Cariad’s favourite jam is Single Variety.

You can catch him at the Soho Theatre if you’re London based, the first weekend in May. I took Stephen for dinner in a particularly ‘characterful’ part of Llanelli, in Wales. We talk about those days where you’re like a bottomless pit on the food front; mental spinning instructors; fussiness; fasting and eating on first dates.

I’ve since bought it because it’s brilliant but if you’re really strapped and want this recipe pop me an email and I’ll send you a picture of it. And here’s a link to the totally gorgeous pear, rye and cardamom cake which Hal made, via Ruby Tandoh. Prettily easy made vegan using flax eggs I reckon and maybe a sweetened and spiced cashew cheese instead of the butter? But it was delicious even without the butter – so good.Honorable MentionsThere are so many of these this week! The vegan wotsits are called Hippeas and you can defo get them in Sainsbury’s and Boots. The swanky coffee he brought was from  Ouseborn. The filmore and union pistachio and chocolate log thing was totally sublime, beyond any health food treat I’d ever found.Hal raves about a restaurant in Newcastle called ‘Al Bayak‘ or ‘The Bake’ and his friend’s brewing company Northern Alchemy sounds pretty wicked too.

He makes me a glorious shakshuka and I make him a deeply repulsive vegan chocolate mousse which he is hilariously charming about- it was inedible. And I say that as someone who, if you’re a regular listener will know, once sucked port out of a 2nd hand rug.RecipesFor John’s shaksuka – you’ll have to listen, and carefully, with a pen and a pausing finger ready.
