Hungry Ghosts
Daniel Stables, Charlie Duckworth
21 episodes
9 months ago

Join travel writer Daniel Stables and professional boozehound Charlie Duckworth on a journey through the worlds of food, alcohol, and world culture, examining the strange things we do in our search for meaning through food and drink.


In Buddhist and Hindu lore, hungry ghosts are lost souls who stalk the earth seeking in vain to sate their swollen appetites. In the wheel of death and rebirth, the hungry ghosts occupy a lower realm than humans. We think that flatters us.


We are all hungry ghosts. These are the lengths that we go to.

Horsemen of the Oesophagus | Competitive Eating
This week’s episode is a tribute to the greats of the competitive eating world. Joey Chestnut. Takeru Kobyashi. And our personal favourite, Sonya Thomas, a.k.a The Black Widow, a.k.a The Leader of the Four Horsemen of the Oesophagus. These guys don’t muck about. 13kg of poutine in ten minutes? 128oz of mayonnaise in eight minutes? 57 cow brains in 15 minutes? All in a day’s eats for the elite competitive eater. Listen to discover the story of the Great Eater of Kent, the early 20th century phenomenon of Fat Men’s Clubs, and what happens when you pit a professional competitive eater against a Kodiak bear.
