Spooning with Mark Wogan 2023

Written in

by

Mark Wogan is the son of Sir Terry Wogan and a good friend of Jimmy’s, ditto Ewan Venters (the friend part, not the son of Terry).

Released on December 21st 2023 this was a “Christmas food” edition of Mark’s podcast (playlist here if you are interested).

This one should probably be sponsored, the amount of brand mentions in it!! Basically the 3 of them are chatting about (and trying) their favourite Xmas foods, drinks and sweets. Running the gamut of ultra-processed to ultra-posh.

Topics include:

  • Starbucks egg nogg latte
  • Jimmy’s love of their Americano
  • Crunchy Nut Cornflakes with Baileys
  • Heston Blumenthal cooking Jimmy’s Christmas dinner
  • KP cheese footballs
  • Quality Street tins (I’m with Mark – fudge rules!)
  • Christmas crackers
  • Stephen Fry once wrote cracker jokes for Fortnums
  • Countess Grey tea
  • German food
  • Cranberry sauce
  • Toasted turkey sandwich, dipped in gravy
  • Red cabbage
  • Prostate checks
  • Stuffing
  • Mince pies
  • Tequila with Ginger Beer
  • New Year and fireworks
  • Caviar – or Marmite as a substitute
  • Ewan and Jimmy’s joint 50th birthday party
