| 23 Mar 2022 | S1 E1 Food and Cancer with Kris Hallenga | 00:52:03 | |
In the first episode of Life in Food, I speak to Kris Hallenga, founder and CEO of the UK-based breast cancer education charity CoppaFeel!, about Food and Cancer. The discussion covers everything from nutrition to body positivity, guilt and shame - and eating cake with whipped cream at funerals. Delve into this episode for an uplifting chat with the author of the Sunday Times bestselling memoir Glittering a Turd. About Kris Hallenga: Kris founded CoppaFeel with her twin sister Maren after being diagnosed with incurable (or stage four) breast cancer when she was 23. Thirteen years later, the charity raises £2m a year for its fundraising and is backed by celebrities including Dermot O'Leary and Fearne Cotton. While being treated for her cancer, Kris has run a half marathon, starred in a documentary, written a book, started a coffee and cake business, organised an annual music festival, won a Pride of Britain award and successfully campaigned to get cancer on the school curriculum in the UK. Her campaigning has helped saved countless lives by giving people the tools to understand their bodies so that if they are ever diagnosed with cancer, it is caught while it’s still treatable. She lives by the sea in Cornwall, England.

| 30 Mar 2022 | S1 E2 Food and Heartbreak with Jessie Stephens | 00:42:07 | |
Ever wondered why the movies always show women eating ice cream from the tub when they’ve been dumped, when in reality when you’re heartbroken you can’t eat a thing? In the second episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I speak to Jessie Stephens, co-founder and host of the hilarious pop culture podcast Mamamia Out Loud and author of the non-fiction book Heartsick, about Food and Heartbreak. The discussion covers everything from what happens when we're dumped in our favourite restaurants and pubs to revenge diets and healing through food. About Jessie Stephens: Jessie is a Sydney-based writer and podcaster with a Masters degree in History and Gender Studies. She co-hosts the brilliant and hilarious Mamamia Out Loud podcast, covering everything from pop culture to politics, feminism to fashion. For UK listeners, her podcast is like the Australian equivalent of The High Low with Pandora Sykes and Dolly Alderton, which is very high praise indeed.

| 06 Apr 2022 | S1 E3 Food and Dating with Justin Myers | 00:33:16 | |
In the latest episode of Life in Food, I speak to The Fake-Up author Justin Myers about Food and Dating. For the best part of a decade, Justin was an anonymous blogger who went under the pseudonym of The Guyliner, writing about his experiences of dating. After five years writing for the Gay Times, he now has a weekly column for GQ and has written articles on everything from dick pics and dating green flags to a handy guide to whether you’re giving your partner the ick. In 2017, he outed himself as Justin Myers in order to publish his first novel, The Last Romeo, before going on to write two more novels and being dubbed 'the master of the modern romcom'. Our discussion covers everything from the best and worst foods to eat on a first date to the gentrification of working class foods and the issues with food and class. About Justin Myers: Perhaps best known for his Guardian Blind Date reviews, Justin is a freelance journalist who writes about love, dating and other topics under the name The Guyliner. He is the author of three novels including The Last Romeo, The Magnificent Sons and The Fake-Up, and he was also a script consultant for the BBC adaptation of Adam Kay's non-fiction book This Is Going to Hurt. Justin grew up in Shipley, West Yorkshire, and now lives in London.

| 13 Apr 2022 | S1 E4 Food and Healing with Laura Price | 00:44:37 | |
In the latest episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I turn the tables on myself to celebrate the publication of my debut novel, Single Bald Female. My good friend and voice actor Lucia France grills me (geddit?) about Food and Healing, from the meals that helped me after my cancer treatment to why one of my first thoughts on diagnosis was 'what will I have for lunch?' We talk a lot about tea, pasta and dining in the world's best restaurants. About Single Bald Female: Described as 'Dolly Alderton meets The Fault in Our Stars for grown-ups', Single Bald Female is the story of Jess, a young magazine journalist who has hit all the milestones for turning 30 – the career, the loving boyfriend and a cosy London flat they share with their cat. But a shock diagnosis of breast cancer turns Jess’s world upside down, and her contented life implodes with it. Frank, funny and poignant, Single Bald Female is a completely unforgettable story of love and friendship. OUT NOW!

| 20 Apr 2022 | S1 E5 Food and Fertility with Kat Brown | 01:00:49 | |
In the latest episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I speak to journalist Kat Brown about Food and Fertility. In 2020, after two rounds of IVF and several years trying for a baby, Kat was told she was unlikely to ever have a biological child of her own. She decided to channel her grief into No One Talks About This Stuff, a collection of essays from 15 writers on their experience of infertility, childlessness, baby loss and almost-motherhood, to be published in 2023 by Unbound. Our discussion covers everything from Kat's diagnosis of ADHD and a binge eating disorder to finding comfort in mashed potato and M&S trifle. About Kat Brown:

| 27 Apr 2022 | S1 E6 Food and Love with Dominique Crenn | 00:31:21 | |
In the latest episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I speak to French chef Dominique Crenn, owner of Atelier Crenn in San Francisco. Adopted from an orphanage in France as a baby, Chef Dominique moved to San Francisco in the Eighties and became the first female chef in the US to receive the coveted three Michelin stars, for Atelier Crenn, which she named after her late father, an eminent French politician. She is an advocate and activist for LGBTQ+ and women’s rights and environmental issues. In 2019, she documented the treatment of her breast cancer for her 340k Instagram followers. She cites the love of her partner, the actor Maria Bello, for helping her to recover. In this episode, we talk about the inextricable connection between love and food, and how it powers everything she does. About Dominique Crenn:

| 04 May 2022 | S1 E7 Food and Friendship with Nikki May | 00:35:02 | |
In the latest episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I speak to Nikki May, author of the brilliant novel Wahala, a darkly comic and bitingly subversive take on love, race and family featuring three British-Nigerian girlfriends who live in London. Inspired by a meal with Nikki's own girlfriends, the book weaves food through every chapter, so I was keen to talk to her about her love of food and how it reflects her British-Nigerian identity. In the episode, we talk about the power of food in friendship, the underrepresentation of Nigerian cuisine and how Nikki plans to be an extra in the upcoming TV adaptation of her book. About Nikki May: Nikki was born in Bristol and raised in Lagos until the age of 20, when she dropped out of medical school and moved to London. She began a career in advertising before going on to run a successful agency, and went on to write Wahala, which is now being adapted into major TV serial by the BBC.

| 11 May 2022 | S1 E8 Food and Freelance with Sian Meades-Williams | 01:05:14 | |
In the latest episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I speak to Sian-Meades Williams, founder of the Freelance Writing Jobs newsletter and author of the new non-fiction book The Pyjama Myth: The Freelance Writer's Survival Guide. Like me, Sian is a food-obsessed freelancer who tailors her life around meals and spends an inordinate amount of time 'peruse bouching' (that's Sian's term for menu-browsing), so we had much to discuss. In the episode, we talk about everything from figuring out what success looks like as a freelancer to banana sandwiches, original Hula Hoops and 'happy soup'. This is a worthwhile listen not just for the self-employed, but for anyone grappling with working from home or simply trying to discover what they want from life. About Sian Meades-Williams: Sian is an award-winning journalist and author of several books including The Pyjama Myth and The Feminist Quiz Book.

| 18 May 2022 | S1 E9 Food and Motherhood with Ana Ros | 00:50:22 | |
In the latest episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I speak to Ana Ros, chef-owner of Hisa Franko restaurant in the beautiful Soca Valley, Slovenia. Ana was named The World’s Best Female Chef in 2017 and Hisa Franko is a regular on The World’s 50 Best Restaurants list. But beyond the accolades, Ana is a hard-working mother of two, struggling with the same issues every mother experiences. In the episode, we talk about anorexia and baby loss, encouraging her children to try new foods and experiencing guilt as a working mum. About Ana Ros: Ana became a chef by accident, taking over her then-husband Valter’s restaurant when her father-in-law retired. That meant turning down a job as a diplomat in Brussels, which led her own father to stop talking to her. Since then, Ana has starred in her own episode of the brilliant Chef’s Table documentary on Netflix and has won countless accolades. In 2020, she published her beautiful memoir, Sun and Rain, featuring recipes alongside moving stories on everything from losing a baby to suffering from anorexia, and overcoming family pressure to follow a different career path.

In the latest episode of Life in Food with Laura Price, I speak to Clover Stroud, the Sunday Times bestselling author of The Red of My Blood: A Death and Life Story, where she writes about her experience of walking through the first year after her sister's death from breast cancer. In the episode, Clover speaks movingly about the horse-riding accident that left her mother severely disabled when Clover was a teenager, and how that experience changed her family life and her relationship with her sister Nell. She talks about the death of both her mother and Nell, relating it to family food memories of home-cooked lasagne, roll-mop herrings and fish chowder. Finally, we also talk about Dame Deborah James and why it's important to encourage healthy conversation around death. About Clover Stroud: Clover Stroud is a writer and journalist whose work features regularly in the Sunday Times, the Guardian and the Saturday and Sunday Telegraph, among others.

| 01 Jun 2022 | S1 BONUS: Food and Marriage with Chris and Tony Price | 00:50:59 | |
This week's special bonus episode of Life in Food with Laura Price is a bit of a change from the norm because I've interviewed my very own parents, Chris and Tony Price, who are celebrating 50 years of marriage in 2022. I credit my parents for leading me to my love of food, but I've never really explored where their own love of food comes from, so I wanted to quiz them about their own parents, the foods they ate growing up and how they went from a young couple who never ate out to regular restaurant goers and world travellers. In the episode, we talk about growing up with ration books, sharing a love of Fry's Chocolate Cream bars, and the secret to a long and happy marriage. Chris and Tony Price's restaurant recommendations:
