Welcome back to Fields and Feasts — the podcast where ancient agricultural traditions rub shoulders with questionable culinary decisions, all delivered with a straight face and muddy boots.
In Episode 3, Miranda Webster and Matt Hardy are joined by special guest Cameron Kinch, arable farmer, Somerset native, and former Big Brother housemate, for a lively wander into the world of the wassail. With February rolling on, crops slowly stirring and ducks unexpectedly stepping up their productivity, the trio settle in for folklore, food, and friendly chaos.
The conversation explores the wassail in all its forms — from orchard rituals and cider-soaked traditions to noise-making, tree-pleasing, and the blurred line between blessing and boozy social gathering. Along the way, Matt delivers another Field Phrase, Cameron brings a fresh perspective from the West Country, and Miranda attempts yet another Mystery Munch — with mixed (and slightly charred) results.
Feasts or Farce returns with medieval-sounding dishes, questionable beauty rituals, and a surprise contribution involving Spam, spaghetti, and reality TV survival cooking.
There’s also a glimpse behind the scenes of life in the Big Brother house, proving that food scarcity breeds creativity… sometimes.
The episode wraps up with listener love, future plans, and a teaser for next time — featuring homemade cider, family expertise, and a tasting that Miranda is already dreading.
