HI THERE and welcome to Episode 4 - Season 2 of cheaptalk! Back in January I spoke to another Edinburgh "institution" where the pioneer behind this Instagram account is also a loyal cheapshot customer and cheerleader; Liv from @livsfoodclub!
Née edinfoodclub, Liv recently made the decision to put a face - her face! - to her "foodstagram" account, which she started back in 2016 (p.s. before this point Paddy and I were the only faces on the account!). Liv has never been about taking aesthetic photos of trendy foods just for "the gram"; she's all about eating out at local, independent cafés and restaurants that source their food sustainably.
Brew yourselves a cof (sorry I can't make one for you), sit yourselves down and listen to us chat about everything from how she grew her platform and how she navigates negative gifted experiences, to our mutual love for peanut butter with [specifically!] raspberry jam and her advice on how we can do our bit to support the businesses we love but can't go to at the moment.
Liv has been such a staunch supporter of cheapshot since practically the very beginning, and Paddy and I are incredibly grateful to her, so I really hope you enjoy our chat today!
BIG THANKS again to Adam for the editing and Yarong for the artwork!
