“Forts on Food” and similar random podcasts

‘What’s the podcast all about?’ I asked my daughter, Lois.

‘Food, Dad,’ she said.

‘Ah, but food in what shape or form?’ I said.

‘Well, it’s about how we cook what we cook and why we cook it,’ she said.

‘And how we eat what we eat and why we eat it,’ I said.

‘That goes without saying’, she said. ‘There’s no cooking without eating.’

‘What else, then?’ I said.

‘There foods we hate and foods we love, food on tv, how not to waste food, restaurants we remember and why. There are recipes and tips and hints. There are stories, memories, reflections. There’s -‘ she said.

‘All of life, in other words,’ I said.

‘Pretty much,’ said Lois.

‘Hmm,’ I said.

‘And you’re quite well known, Dad,’ she said. ‘Food Editor of the Guardian. Award winning writer. Award winning author. TV hero.’

‘Steady on,’ I said. ‘What about you?’

‘Let’s just say I take a different view from you.’

‘Quite right too’, I said.

So there you have it – dad & daughter; the wisdom of ages and the spirit of youth; united and divided; chatting about food, glorious food. And cooking and eating. What more could you possibly want?
