The term flâneur, popularised in the 19th century, conjures up notions of an idler, of Baudelaire, of an urban walker. But can a woman be a flâneur? Joined by flâneurie expert Delphi Bouchier Hayes, we'll be deconstructing the feminist concept of the flâneuse and how women can reclaim male-dominated spaces with their feet. And from safety to form of exercise, from protest to mode of transportation - the liberating powers of a good walk.

Why are we so obsessed with chefs? Well, a lot of that has to do with Marco Pierre White. In this episode titled after White's Autobiography, I'm joined by chef, researcher, and host of The Full English Podcast Lewis Bassett.  As we delve into the psychology and career of one of the most influential chefs of the 20th century, Lewis and I will attempt to understand our cultural obsession with chefs,  discuss Marco Pierre White's influence on the industry, and our own respective experiences in the world of hospitality.  Bon appétit! Winner of the 2023 Guild of Food Writers Podcast Award, The Full English Podcast explores the sociological and historical factors that shaped the way we eat.
