Podcast appearances and mentions of esther coren

OK Annabel is still OOO, so Emilie has roped in a friend of the pod, the marvellous Esther Coren to help. Esther has her own podcast, Giles Coren Has No Idea and a Substack called The Spike and she also gives excellent book recommendations. Given we're all feeling mad, bad and dangerous to know (not in a swashbuckling-Byronic-way but in a teetering on The-Brink-kind-of-way) perhaps books can soothe us tiny bit: little umbrellas for the mind. We talk about The Paleo Life by Clare Foges (out June 6), Quint by Robert Lautner, The Ministry of Time by Kaliane Bradley (May 14), One Day in the Life of Ivan Denisovich by Alexander Solzhenitsyn, The Egg & I by Betty MacDonald (out of print, but will be on World of Books, which, incidentally, is the preloved Amazon), Hugo Rifkind's Rabbits (also June 6), and In Memoriam by Alice Winn. Plus there's a cameo from Esther's cat Iris.  Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

Introducing our new mini episode...it's a little after dinner something to keep you going through the week. It's The Dream Dinner Party. It's short and sweet, just one simple question. Each week we will have a different guest guiding us through their Dream Dinner Party. They are allowed 4 guests, they can be dead or alive and of course we want to know why they will be invited. They're going to be talking us through their dream dinner party menu, what will their dream guests be feasting on and what will they drink?I'm so excited for this and our first guest sharing her dream dinner party is the wonderful Esther Coren. It only felt fitting to have Esther as our first Dream Dinner Party guest as she was my very first guest on Desert Island Dishes before I had a single listener and so that felt like a fun full circle moment. Thank you Esther for being so generous with your time – and for taking a chance on me and my little Dictaphone that I plonked on the floor between us. Esther is a fantastic writer, she's so witty and I just love her writing . She has a brilliant Substack which you should all subscribe to and can find here. Do make sure you're subscribed to catch all episodes of The Dream Dinner Party and Desert Island Dishes. Thank you so much for listening, bye!Find us on Instagram and Tiktok @desertislanddishes Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

MANY of you asked for more Rebecca Reid and Esther Coren, so this week I invited them on the show for a natter about Christmases past and their more intriguing Christmas memories and traditions. Crucial topics covered include our top Christmas films, what constitutes a good Christmas (no turkey and a curated crowd in Esther's case, much booze and being surrounded by family in Rebecca's, and my eclectic bunch plus the waifs and strays from Dad's restaurant for me), how much is too much when it comes to gifts, and which Christmases we remember for all the wrong reasons (romantic woes for all of us on this one, with Rebecca telling the tale of being stuck in the country with no electricity or means to contact her boyfriend, Esther hopelessly in love with a man who didn't reciprocate, and me trying to seduce someone with 24 M & S brie and cranberry bites).You've got the gist: it's a Christmas feast. Enjoy.Beauty Full Lives is hosted by Madeleine Spencer, produced by Charlie Jones, and with artwork by Sung Lee. See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

Esther Coren didn't grow up thinking her currency would be her looks. She describes herself as having a 'round face, lots and lots of very pronounced freckles, and very, very red hair. I wasn't chubby, but I wasn't one of the pretty girls at school at all.'Fortunately, she grew up in a household where the way she looked wasn't valued above other attributes - particularly speedy wit, and in a bid to make their mum laugh, Esther would develop a dexterity with words that would set her in good stead as a journalist.Today, she's found a look that works for her and on her website, The Spike, shares the tricks and finds that have helped her along the way, as well as other nuggets of wisdom on anything from children's clothes to excellent books.Esther's product mentions include:- Rimmel Conceal the Blemish- Clinique Eyeshadow in Aubergine- GHDs- John Frieda Air Drying Mousse- Alpha H Vitamin Serums- Bobbi Brown Longwear EyelinerGrooming spots:- Nadia at John FriedaBeauty Full Lives is hosted by Madeleine Spencer, produced by Charlie Jones, and with artwork by Sung Lee.
