Brilliant Bari Vecchia — Bari's historic old town — is one of the most compelling parts of our regional capital. Once a city most people passed through, Bari has become Puglia's most visited destination: a place of pilgrimage, welcoming those devoted to the cult of Saint Nicholas alongside visitors drawn by Bari Vecchia's extraordinary food scene. With its 4,000-year history, the old town doesn't reveal itself all at once. Much of what defines Bari Vecchia lies between the monuments: front doors opening onto cool, shaded alleyways; the sounds of food being prepared and families eating together; laundry hanging from balconies, drying slowly in the afternoon heat. Everyday life continues here in full view. Its streets are irregular, defensive and intentionally disorienting — a medieval urban maze built to slow intruders. It's easy to lose your bearings in Bari Vecchia. We still do. So, join us on our walking tour of Bari Vecchia, approaching the old city by neighbourhood: overlapping zones anchored by piazzas, churches and historic institutions. Discover the character and rhythm of each quarter as we explore Bari Vecchia and its history. For more information on our route, precise locations and places to stop for refreshments along the way, see our companion Puglia Guys guide to Bari Vecchia.

//The Wire//2300Z February 9, 2026////ROUTINE////BLUF: TERROR ATTACKS AND CASH VAN HEISTS STRIKE ITALY. SUSPECT IN POSSIBLE BIOWEAPONS FACILITY IN NEVADA RELEASED BY JUDGE.// -----BEGIN TEARLINE----- -International Events-Italy: Several kinetic events have been reported throughout the nation as the region hosts the Olympic games.In the region of Puglia, a cash transit van was ambushed on State Road 613 (SS613), which involved thieves boxing in a cash van, forcing the vehicle to halt on the highway near a bridge just north of Torchiarolo. Once the vehicle was halted, one team of thieves stopped oncoming traffic while another team conducted an explosive breach of the van. A total of 6x gunmen took part in the attack, and injuries were reported as a result of the explosion and subsequent gunfire, however no fatalities have been reported so far.Other than daring heists on the roadway, more deliberate terror attacks have also taken place over the past few days. Three separate attacks were reported on Italian rail lines, all targeting main lines being used heavily by participants of the Olympics. One switching and control station was set on fire in Pesaro and communication/switching cables were cut on one rail line in Bologna. Adjacent to this site, an IED was discovered emplaced on an undisclosed track (which was found and rendered safe before it detonated).Analyst Comment: Be it gangs of thieves, or the ecoterrorist groups that normally conduct attacks on rail lines, Italy will probably be host to a continuation of kinetic activity, as long as the Olympics bring increased focus (and tourism) to the nation.-----END TEARLINE-----Analyst Comments: In Nevada, several more developments have come to light regarding the Chinese-linked biolab (and suspected biological weapons research facility) that was discovered in Las Vegas last week. Over the weekend Ori Solomon, the Israeli citizen who was serving as the property manager of the Vegas facility, was released from jail on the order of Judge Elayna Youchah. As such, it's quite likely that Solomon will be on a plane very soon, that is, if he isn't setting up another bioweapon facility right now. Per the court documents and media reports, Solomon is being portrayed as the innocent Property Manager of the residence, who had nothing to do with any of this. However, this is probably not true. After this cell was discovered and the local ringleader (David He) was arrested, Solomon stepped into a more active role in managing the Vegas biolab. This is strongly indicated by the fact that David He called Solomon from prison 467 times after his arrest. Solomon's job as a property manager gave him both the access and the justification to be at this house daily, checking on the biological experiments that were ongoing at this site. This access also granted him a reason to be in the general neighborhood itself, which is not just residential...several churches, schools, and community centers are all located with a few hundred yards of the residence where highly infections diseases were illegally being stored in containment conditions so poor that the cleaning staff got deathly sick.Concerning others that are involved in this case, the illegal biolab itself was being run out of a residential address that was also serving as an AirBnB facility. Around the time of the raid, customers were staying at this residence, not knowing that a biological weapons facility was being run out of the garage (which was usually kept locked). None of these people have been quarantined, despite confirmed reports of biological materials leaking from this facility, and making innocent bystanders ill. It is also not clear as to if any of the AirBnB customers that stayed at this site over the past year have been contacted to determine if they have unwittingly been infected.Analyst: S2A1Research: https://publish.

Negli ultimi anni i servizi di trasporto per conto della Grande distribuzione organizzata sono stati sottopagati. "Ne va della sicurezza, abbiamo presentato un esperto all'Autorità Garante del Mercato e della Concorrenza", annuncia il segretario generale Claudio Donati.La Puglia è una delle regioni più esposte al fenomeno del cargo crime, cioè furti e rapine ai danni dei tir. In questi ultimi mesi si è assistito ad una recrudescenza degli episodi. In particolare a finire nel mirino dei rapinatori ora sono i mezzi che trasportano olio. Ne parliamo con Natale Mariella, vice presidente nazionale di Anita.

“They make their own wine or olive oil. They have fruit trees. They are so willing to share, to make you taste, to invite you for lunch and dinner, to teach you something. It's a very generous, open approach that was very new for me. It should be normal and obvious, but it's not. It's no longer like this in big cities.”We're in great company with Giorgia Goggi, the Head Chef of Masseria Moroseta—who along with her friends turned family, became the stewards behind this modern farmhouse in Ostuni. Here they have curated an elegant but familiar environment, a place created for those seeking a peaceful atmosphere between nature, good food, design and beauty. A white stone house standing proudly on a ridge overlooking the Adriatic Sea, surrounded by five hectares of organic olive groves, Masseria Moroseta embodies the essence of Puglia—a unique land, a clear sky, warm scents and simple flavors distilled into every detail.In this episode, Giorgia shares how slowing down to the rhythm of seasons, trusting ingredient-driven creativity, and gathering around a table with strangers who become friends, reminds us why we fell in love with cooking, travel, and community in the first place.Top Takeaways[1:55] From childhood family meals to professional calling, Giorgia transformed her greatest passion into her life's work—finally finding the creative freedom to make her voice heard.[5:00] In Puglia, Giorgia discovered what she didn't know was missing—a landscape where centuries-old olive trees, generous neighbors, and ingredients alive with flavor make creativity not just possible, but inevitable.[10:10] Carlo Lanzini envisioned Masseria Moroseta as a classical Puglian farmhouse—a simple, purposeful design born from agriculture where every space served the land—then reimagined it for today with reverence for tradition and place.[11:35] A day in the life of a Head Chef shifts with the seasons—winter's quietude, spring's renewal, summer's full energy—a rhythm that honors both the land's cycles and the creative space needed to truly innovate.[15:35] With only six rooms and intentionally unscheduled days, guests naturally surrender their itineraries to discover what matters most—a leisurely breakfast, a nap in the afternoon sun, wine at sunset—the very rhythm that defines the Moroseta lifestyle.[22:15] Each Puglian ingredient holds infinite possibilities ensuring Giorgia's work is never finished, always evolving.[25:35] Through workshops, Giorgia steps away from behind the counter to sit as an equal among friends—rediscovering the joy that first drew her to cooking, while guests transform from strangers into a community bound by shared meals and stories.[29:30] Rather than expanding rooms, Moroseta expanded possibilities—holiday villas for friends, boat tours along the Adriatic, restaurant collaborations—each experience another lens through which guests discover the richness of Puglia, always rooted in the same care and intention.Notable MentionsStudio Andrew TrotterTortellini en BrodoNocino Liqueur Visit For YourselfMasseria Moroseta Website | @masseriamoroseta@morosetakitchen | @moroseta_homes | @moroseta_boats

Liliana Porcelli"Influcancer"Diario di una folle resilienteEdizioni Piemmewww.edizpiemme.itQuando la vita corre veloce, tra lavoro, famiglia e sogni da inseguire, nessuno è pronto a sentir pronunciare la parola «tumore». Tutto cambia all'improvviso, c'è un prima e c'è un poi, in cui affannarsi sembra inutile e le priorità si stravolgono. È da questa frattura che nasce il libro che avete fra le mani, il diario ironico, sincero e commovente di una donna che ha deciso di affrontare la malattia con un'arma inaspettata: la condivisione. Settimana dopo settimana, tra post su Facebook e riflessioni intime, Liliana trasforma la sua voce in quella di una «influcancer»: una influencer della resilienza, che racconta le paure, i dolori, ma anche la bellezza che si nasconde in un percorso di malattia, in questa fragilità tutta nuova. Scopriamo insieme a lei il valore dell'attesa, della lentezza e della gratitudine, ma soprattutto che non serve essere eroi per essere forti: basta scegliere, ogni giorno, di non smettere di credere nella vita. Un libro che è molto più di una testimonianza: è un abbraccio collettivo, una dichiarazione d'amore, un invito a trovare la luce anche nei giorni più bui, con la consapevolezza che ogni emozione - dal dolore alla felicità - è più vera se condivisa.Liliana PorcelliNata a Bisceglie, in Puglia, vive a Milano da oltre vent'anni, dove ha sviluppato una solida carriera prima nel Gruppo Mediolanum e successivamente come dirigente nel Network Deloitte. Appassionata di sport e praticante di running a livello amatoriale, ha affrontato la malattia con la determinazione e la tenacia di chi corre una lunga gara, con l'obiettivo di raggiungere il traguardo e lasciare un contributo significativo alla ricerca scientifica.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/

Con questo articolo, scoprirete 3 libri italiani che vi consiglio assolutamente di leggere quest'anno. Sono tre romanzi molto diversi tra loro, ma tutti e tre vi aiuteranno a migliorare il vostro italiano e vi faranno scoprire aspetti importanti della cultura e della mentalità italiana. C'è anche il mio preferito, e capirete perché... Cosa leggere in italiano? Ti suggerisco 3 libri! PRIMO LIBRO: "Il giorno in più" di Fabio Volo Il primo libro che voglio consigliarvi è perfetto se cercate una lettura facile, scorrevole e piacevole. Si tratta di "Il giorno in più" di Fabio Volo, pubblicato nel 2007. Chi è Fabio Volo? Prima di parlarvi del libro, lasciatemi presentare l'autore! Fabio Volo è uno degli scrittori italiani più popolari degli ultimi vent'anni. Ma non è solo uno scrittore: è anche attore, conduttore radiofonico e televisivo, e una vera e propria personalità del mondo dello spettacolo italiano. I suoi libri hanno venduto milioni di copie e sono amati soprattutto dai giovani adulti, ma in realtà piacciono a persone di tutte le età! Di cosa parla "Il giorno in più"? Giacomo, uomo sulla trentina, trascorre una vita normale, per certi versi sin troppo. Vive e lavora in Italia, la sua esistenza è scandita dalla routine di tutti i giorni. L'unico motivo di trepidazione per Giacomo è la visione quotidiana di una donna sul tram che lo porta al lavoro. I due non si parlano mai, ma allo stesso tempo sono complici. Si scambiano sguardi furtivi e sorrisi appena accennati. Dopo molti giorni scanditi da questi momenti di reciproca silenziosa attenzione, Michela, questo il nome della donna misteriosa, si presenta a Giacomo, scambia con lui due chiacchiere e gli comunica che ha deciso di trasferirsi a New York per lavoro. Per Giacomo è un duro colpo, visto che si trova privato di quell'unico piccolo piacere di ogni giorno. Dopo un periodo di dubbi, il protagonista riesce a risalire all'indirizzo dell'ufficio di Michela e decide di partire per New York. Lì incontra la donna e inizia un'appassionante storia d'amore, fatta di intensi momenti e profonda attrazione. Perché vi consiglio questo libro? Innanzitutto, la lingua di Fabio Volo è estremamente colloquiale e moderna. Leggendo i suoi libri, avrete l'impressione di ascoltare un amico che vi racconta una storia al bar. Questo significa che imparerete tantissime espressioni che gli italiani usano davvero nella vita di tutti i giorni! Per esempio, troverete frasi come: "Mi sono fatto un sacco di domande" "Non ci sto capendo niente" "Ho bisogno di staccare la spina" Tutte espressioni perfette per arricchire il vostro italiano parlato. In secondo luogo, i temi trattati sono universali: tutti noi, prima o poi, ci facciamo domande sul senso della vita, sull'amore, sul lavoro, sulla felicità. Leggendo questo libro, non solo migliorerete il vostro italiano, ma probabilmente vi riconoscerete in molte delle riflessioni del protagonista! Curiosità culturale Fabio Volo è così popolare in Italia che quando esce un suo nuovo libro, diventa immediatamente un best seller. I suoi romanzi sono perfetti per chi vuole capire la mentalità degli italiani contemporanei, soprattutto delle generazioni più giovani. Inoltre, da alcuni suoi libri sono stati tratti dei film – "Il giorno in più" non fa eccezione: nel 2011 è diventato un film diretto dallo stesso Fabio Volo! Il mio consiglio Se siete a un livello principiante-intermedio (A2-B1), questo è il libro perfetto per voi. È facile da leggere, scorrevole, e la storia vi terrà compagnia senza mai annoiarvi. Caratteristiche del libro CaratteristicaDescrizioneTramaSemplice e lineareTemi principaliPaura dei cambiamenti, scelte di vita, coraggio di rischiare per i propri sogniMessaggioInvito a mollare l'ancora e partire in viaggio senza salvagenteLivello consigliatoA2-B1 (Principiante-Intermedio)StileColloquiale, moderno, scorrevole Citazione dal libro: "Il senso di libertà che ho avvertito quel mattino non lo avevo mai provato. Qualsiasi cosa mi sembrava diversa. Mi pareva di poter fare tutto ciò che volevo. Avevo la vita in mano, la mia giornata, il mio destino. Tutto era lì. Avere una giornata davanti a me senza impegni, orari, scadenze mi faceva sentire Dio. Mi sono seduto su una panchina. Non c'era una vista particolare. Solo desideravo guardare cosa accadeva in quella strada. Ho pensato molto a quel che stavo vivendo, a Michela, al tempo passato con lei." SECONDO LIBRO (IL MIO PREFERITO!): "Tutto il bello che ci aspetta" di Lorenza Gentile E ora arriviamo al mio libro preferito tra questi tre! Si tratta di "Tutto il bello che ci aspetta" di Lorenza Gentile, pubblicato nel 2024. E quando avrete finito di leggere la descrizione, capirete esattamente perché questo libro ha un posto speciale nel mio cuore! Chi è Lorenza Gentile? Lorenza Gentile è nata a Milano nel 1988 ed è una delle voci più fresche e interessanti della narrativa italiana contemporanea. Ha scritto diversi romanzi di successo, tutti caratterizzati da uno stile leggero ma profondo, ironico ma toccante. Le sue protagoniste sono sempre donne forti, imperfette, reali, con cui è facilissimo identificarsi. Di cosa parla? La protagonista è Selene, una donna di trentaquattro anni che vive a Milano e si sente completamente persa. Il suo ristorante sta fallendo, la sua vita sentimentale è un disastro, e non riesce a trovare la sua strada. Tutti intorno a lei sembrano avere la vita perfetta, mentre lei si sente sempre più inadeguata e confusa. Un giorno, decide di fare qualcosa di coraggioso: tornare al suo paese d'origine, un piccolo borgo bianco nel cuore della Puglia, dove è cresciuta da bambina in una comunità spirituale, un ashram. Vuole ritrovare se stessa, capire cosa è andato storto, riconnettersi con le sue radici. Ma ovviamente, niente va secondo i piani: la sua macchina si rompe appena prima di arrivare! In attesa dei pezzi di ricambio, le viene data Amanda, una vecchia Fiat Uno rossa piena di personalità (e fidatevi, Amanda diventerà un personaggio a tutti gli effetti!). Tra gite nel Salento, yoga all'alba, pomeriggi in cucina con vecchi amici, la riscoperta dei sapori della cucina pugliese e la cura di un asinello di nome Virgilio, Selene inizierà a riscoprire se stessa e a capire cosa vuole veramente dalla vita. Perché è il mio libro preferito? Innanzitutto, devo fare una confessione: io sono pugliese! Sono nata e cresciuta in Puglia, e quando ho letto questo libro mi sono ritrovata completamente nelle descrizioni dei paesaggi, dei profumi, dei colori, delle persone. Lorenza Gentile è riuscita a catturare l'essenza della mia terra in un modo che mi ha davvero commossa. Leggendo le pagine ambientate nel Salento, tra gli ulivi secolari, i trulli, il mare cristallino e i borghi bianchi, mi sentivo a casa. E questo è un regalo bellissimo che un libro può fare! Ma non è solo per questo che lo adoro. La lingua di Lorenza Gentile è moderna, fresca e autentica. Troverete espressioni colloquiali, modi di dire tipicamente italiani e dialoghi che suonano esattamente come una conversazione tra amici. Per esempio, potreste incontrare frasi come: "Ma che ti passa per la testa?" "Non se ne parla nemmeno!" Che sono perfette per capire come parlano davvero gli italiani di oggi. Inoltre, il libro affronta temi universali – l'amore, l'amicizia, i sogni, le paure, la ricerca di se stessi, la voglia di ricominciare – ma lo fa con uno stile leggero e ironico. Lorenza Gentile è bravissima a usare l'ironia per parlare di cose serie, e questo rende la lettura non solo educativa, ma anche divertente e coinvolgente! Curiosità culturale Leggendo questo libro, non solo migliorerete il vostro italiano, ma farete anche un viaggio virtuale in una delle regioni più belle d'Italia: la Puglia! Scoprirete i paesaggi mozzafiato del Salento, la cucina tradizionale pugliese (preparatevi ad avere fame!), le tradizioni locali e anche un po' di spiritualità orientale mescolata alla cultura italiana. È un mix affascinante! Il mio consiglio Questo libro è perfetto per chi ha un livello intermedio (B2). È abbastanza semplice da essere godibile, ma abbastanza ricco da farvi imparare tantissimo. E soprattutto, vi farà innamorare della Puglia – proprio come me!

Chi è Paolo Giordano? Paolo Giordano è nato a Torino nel 1982 ed è sia uno scrittore che un fisico. Sì, avete capito bene: è laureato in fisica teorica! Questa sua formazione scientifica si riflette moltissimo nel suo stile di scrittura, che è preciso, matematico, quasi chirurgico. "La solitudine dei numeri primi" è il suo primo romanzo, scritto quando aveva solo 26 anni, e ha avuto un successo straordinario sia in Italia che all'estero. Di cosa parla? "La solitudine dei numeri primi" racconta le vite parallele e intrecciate di Alice e Mattia, due personaggi segnati da traumi infantili che li portano a vivere ai margini. Alice è vittima di un grave incidente sciistico che la rende zoppa e le causa problemi alimentari come l'anoressia. Mattia è tormentato dal senso di colpa per aver abbandonato la sorella gemella autistica,

Così, per spronarla a seguire il suo desiderio, fin da giovanissima i suoi genitori la iniziano alla pratica del risparmio per obiettivi. «Ho preso il mio salvadanaio e per tutto l'inverno l'ho riempito con i soldi che mi arrivavano. Poi, d'estate, sono riuscita a fare tre mesi di lezioni».Nonostante la felicità e l'eccitazione per quella disciplina, per molto tempo, quel desiderio viene accantonato. Valentina cresce, si trasferisce prima ad Urbino e poi a Milano, si sposa, e inizia la sua carriera da giornalista, prima come freelance e poi in un'azienda editoriale. Ma intorno ai quarant'anni, in un momento difficile del matrimonio, quel sogno d'infanzia torna a galla. Con suo marito, Valentina inizia a frequentare un maneggio e prendere lezioni di equitazione. La sua passione cresce sempre di più, fino a quando l'istruttrice e proprietaria della cavalla le propone di acquistarla. Valentina accetta e decide di acquistarla pagandola a rate. Questa scelta di rateizzare l'acquisto, la sprona anche a migliorare la sua relazione con il denaro: «ho rivisto il mio budget, ridotto tutte le spese superflue e tuttora per mantenere la cavalla acquisto molto poco. Questa voglia di raggiungere il mio desiderio di bambina mi ha aiutato anche a migliorare la mia condizione lavorativa, perché sono riuscita a chiedere un aumento».Comprare un cavallo a rate può sembrare una scelta fuori dal comune, ma rappresenta un esempio concreto di una tendenza sempre più diffusa tra gli italiani: il credito al consumo non è più riservato solo agli acquisti essenziali, ma viene spesso utilizzato per realizzare desideri, passioni e progetti personali. Ma ogni progetto andrebbe realizzato considerando le proprie possibilità e con responsabilità. Il credito al consumo è uno strumento potente, capace di moltiplicare le possibilità, ma va gestito con consapevolezza. Per capire come usare le rate in modo efficace, nella puntata c'è Martina Moraschi, esperta di educazione finanziaria di Sella Personal Credit. Questo podcast è una co-produzione di Rame e Sella Personal Credit.

Tonight, we are tasting three wines. Two will be around $10, and a third wine will be over $20. Can we taste the difference?Tonight, we are tasting:2022 Epicuro Aglianico from Puglia, Italy. Purchased from Trader Joe's for $5.99. Blackberry and cherry with light spicy notes. Smooth and velvety. 13% alcohol. Single varietal wine, fermented in stainless steel tanks followed by maturation on the lees for several months before bottling. Does have some residual sugar. 2023 Tribunal Red Wine from the North Coast of California. Purchased at Trader Joe's for $12.00. Bold and full-bodied. Jammy fruit forward wine with lots of spice. People say it can be a little hot, but pairs well with burgers, pizza, and tacos.2017 Skylark las aves from the North Coast of California. This was purchased from Wine Styles for around $25. Mendocino County California. A Spanish inspired blend of 33% Carignane, 27% Syrah, 26% Grenache, and 14% Cabernet Sauvignon. Received a 92 rating from Wilfred Wong. Aromas of red cherry and raspberry, floral violet, and forest floor.Denise liked the $12 wine, the Tribunal. I preferred the $25 Skylark. However, if you like fruity, jammy, oaky red wines, and are looking for a bargain. You might want to try the Tribunal. I can really indorse the Skylark. I found this to be very smooth with good acidity and very well balanced. Next week, we are having our first Austrian wine, a Zweigelt.

This holiday episode finds hosts John Viola, Patrick O' Boyle, Dr. Marcella Martin welcoming "La Befana" for a funny, warm conversation about the Epiphany gift-giver and Italian holiday traditions. The banter centers on coal, "naughty lists," and the idea that Befana—not Santa—was historically the one who brought gifts in many Italian homes. Befana explains her roots in older seasonal and pagan imagery—sweeping out the old year and welcoming renewal—later blended with the Christian Epiphany story of the Magi on January 6. John and the gang touch on the liturgical calendar, modest stocking traditions of tangerines, sweets, and "sugar coal," and the Italian notion of bella figura as respect and preparedness rather than mere fashion. The episode turns hands-on as Befana makes pasta, shares regional lore from Puglia and Sardinia, and swaps gifts with the hosts. It closes with a call for Italian Americans to keep their language and traditions alive through family rituals, children's activities, and community—using Befana as a joyful way to carry culture forward.   HOSTS: John Viola Patrick O'Boyle Dr. Marcella Martin   SPECIAL GUEST: La Befana (Viviana Altieri)   PRODUCED BY: Nicholas Calvello-Macchia

In un casolare abbandonato, due contadini trovano il corpo senza vita di una giovane donna con le braccia aperte e le caviglie legate, quasi a simulare una croce, e una ferita mortale sotto il seno… Mentre l'ombra di rituali satanici si abbatte sui cittadini di Gravina in Puglia, le autorità scavano nella vita della ragazza e nei suoi affetti più cari alla ricerca dell'assassino. Questa è la storia di Maria Pia Labianca.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

They call it Europe's backbone: the rural heartlands. Covering more than 80 per cent of the EU's territory but home to less than 30 per cent of its population, rural areas are vital for food, biodiversity, and climate resilience, yet face population decline, ageing communities, poor infrastructure, and limited digital access. In this episode of Europe Talks Back, Evi Kiorri explores what life is really like far from the cities, speaking with Emanuele Monaco, who left urban life to build a distillery in rural Puglia, Italy. Through his story, we uncover both the challenges and the opportunities of rural life: from revitalising communities and sustainable farming to attracting young families and new ideas.

Please follow us on: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Facebook ⁠⁠⁠! In this episode, Kimberly and Tommaso talk about travel to Italy during the high season. They suggest places to visit and compare their personal recommendations to those generated by AI models like Google Gemini and ChatGPT. Key Points: High Season in Italy: The high season in Italy now runs from Easter through September. The discussion focuses on how crowds impact the travel experience during this period. Navigating Travel Information: Tommaso discusses the prevalence of AI-generated content and the rapid growth of the influencer market. They highlight the need for authentic and reliable information in travel planning. Kimberly and Tommaso's Top Recommendations for High Season 2026: Lago Molveno: A tranquil mountain lake village, perfect for hiking and biking, offering stunning views and a peaceful atmosphere. Portovenere, Liguria: A colorful coastal village south of Cinque Terre, offering boat trips to Palmaria Island and delicious pesto. Cuneo Province, Piemonte: Ideal for a driving trip, known for its truffles, Barolo wine, and charming towns like Alba and Bra. Also features the Santuario di San Magno with spectacular mountain views. AI Recommendations vs. Reality: ChatGPT's suggestions for high season include popular, often overcrowded, destinations like the Amalfi Coast, Cinque Terre, Taormina, and Florence. Google Gemini suggests the Dolomites, Verona, Puglia, Sicily, Ischia, Umbria, and Bologna. Both AI models acknowledge the presence of crowds in their suggestions, but Kimberly and Tomaso emphasize the extent of overcrowding in these popular areas during peak season. AI models currently provide summaries of information, lacking the personal opinions and unique experiences that human experts offer. Many Italian businesses close for Ferragosto, impacting city experiences. Authenticity in Travel Planning: The hosts advocate for authentic, ground-level expertise over generic AI recommendations. Kimberly notes that AI cannot convey the magical, sensory experiences of travel, such as the one-of-a-kind experience of waking up to the scent of Edelweiss flowers in the Italian mountains.

While today's films and filmmakers may not be about holiday movies, they do fit with the love and laughter of the holidays as MICHELLE DANNER joins me talking about her new film, the beautiful and romantic UNDER THE STARS, while writer/director MICHAEL J. WEITHORN is on hand discussing his fantastic film, THE BEST YOU CAN. First, let's turn our attention to Puglia, Italy, and UNDER THE STARS with MICHELLE DANNER. Directed by Danner with a script by Victoria Vinuesa, UNDER THE STARS stars Toni Collette, Andy Garcia, Alex Pettyfer, Eva De Dominici, Rob Estes, and Vincent Riotta. UNDER THE STARS follows a struggling romance novelist named Ian played by Alex Pettyfer, in what I consider to be the best performance of his career, trapped in a lifeless relationship and plagued by writer's block. Hoping to reignite his passion, he travels to Italy for inspiration – only to unexpectedly fall for Ariana, a spirited local who challenges everything he thought he knew about love and himself. And as if that's not enough, how about tossing in Ian's aunt Audrey and Ariana's father Giacomo? Shifting gears but still enjoying the lightness and laughter and life, we turn our attention to writer/director MICHAEL J. WEITHORN and THE BEST YOU CAN. Reuniting Kyra Sedgwick and Kevin Bacon on screen for the first time in twenty years, THE BEST YOU CAN is a sharp, touching, and laugh-out-loud exploration of change, losing our bearings, and finding connection in the most unexpected places. This character-driven comedy is a reminder that sometimes the people who understand us best are the ones who are nothing like us. http://eliasentertainmentnetwork.com

Lorenzo Fiori reports that climate change is threatening Italian food production, particularly cheese, due to drought and heat waves in the south, especially the Puglia region, where stressed cows are reducing milk production and impacting specialty cheeses like mozzarella and burrata. Milk cannot be shipped from the north because local water and hay are essential to the unique flavor of southern cheese. Fiori emphasizes that Italian food is a famous brand precisely because it belongs to its territory, criticizing pre-prepared sauces found in Brussels as inauthentic carbonara, which must be made fresh. In Milan, Christmas preparations are underway, with shop windows decorated festively and street lights scheduled to be switched on December 7th. 1947

SHOW 11-21-25 CBS EYE ON THE WORLD WITH JOHN BATCHELOR THE SHOW BEGINS IN THE DOUBTS ABOUT UKRAINE FIRST HOUR 9-915 HEADLINE: Las Vegas Shifts Focus with Formula 1 and Lower-End Tourism; California Politics Hit by Indictments GUEST: Jeff Bliss Jeff Bliss reports that the Formula 1 race on the Las Vegas city circuit is attracting major spectacle and high-end tourism, though the city is also attempting recovery by catering to lower-income demographics, evidenced by positive activity at the Excalibur Casino, while facing major competition from a new Indian casino near Bakersfield, California, operated by the Tahone tribe and twice the size of Caesars Palace. In California, Governor Gavin Newsom's former chief of staff, Dana Williamson, and four others were indicted on 23 counts of fraud. Additionally, an investigation into the Palisades fire revealed that state workers ordered the LA Fire Department to back off a previously burned area that rekindled, allegedly to protect endangered plants. 915-930 HEADLINE: Industrial Policy and Tariffs Lack Coherence; Removal of Food Tariffs Implies Inflationary EffectGUEST: Veronique De Rugy Veronique De Rugy discusses US industrial policy, noting the trade deficit has increased despite tariffs, and the administration's decision to remove tariffs on food items—goods not produced domestically—is seen as an implicit admission that tariffs contribute to the "affordability crisis" because tariffs are a tax primarily borne by American consumers. The goals behind tariffs have shifted from fighting China to raising revenue, and the largest tariff exemption is for computer parts, indicating an understanding that tariffs could contradict other goals like energy abundance. De Rugyargues that US economic power stems from innovation and a willingness to invest, making industrial policy involving tariffs and seeking foreign investment largely unnecessary and potentially harmful. 930-945 HEADLINE: Mixed US Economic Signals: Strong GDP Contrasts Low Consumer Sentiment; AI Adoption Increases GUEST: Gene Marks Gene Marks discusses the US economy, noting that third-quarter GDP growth is estimated near 4%, contrasting sharply with record-low consumer sentiment in a "tale of two economies" where salaried workers receiving pay raises of 5–7% are outpacing 3% inflation and continuing to spend, while hourly workers struggle. Despite job growth in construction, leading indicators like the architectural billings index show contraction for 11 months. In technology, 88% of major companies are adopting artificial intelligence, though scaling remains limited, with AI already replacing low-level programmers and enhancing customer service. Agentic AI, capable of performing complex tasks, is predicted to impact fields like accounting and marketing by 2027–2028. However, Marks argues that most current major corporate layoffs stem from typical corporate bloat and mismanagement rather than AI, at least not yet. 945-10 SECOND HOUR 10-1015 HEADLINE: Lancaster County Economy Booms Despite Low Consumer Confidence; Local Entrepreneurs ThriveGUEST: Jim McTague Jim McTague reports that the economy in Lancaster County, Pennsylvania, is strong, suggesting it mirrors the greater US economy despite reports of low consumer confidence, observing robust traffic at tourist destinations like Kitchen Kettle Village, a shopping locale established in 1954, with spending largely supported by well-off boomers. Local entrepreneurs are experiencing great success—a dealer selling eclectic electric lamps in Park City Mall is already earning $4,500 per week at the start of the holiday season, and high volume at Costco, where the Amish are major buyers, further indicates available disposable income. McTague concludes that the real economy on Main Street is strong and likely headed for a blockbuster Christmas season. 1015-1030 HEADLINE: Climate Change Threatens Iconic Italian Cheeses; Southern Drought Reduces Milk Production Quality GUEST: Lorenzo Fiori Lorenzo Fiori reports that climate change is threatening Italian food production, particularly cheese, due to drought and heat waves in the south, especially the Puglia region, where stressed cows are reducing milk production and impacting specialty cheeses like mozzarella and burrata. Milk cannot be shipped from the north because local water and hay are essential to the unique flavor of southern cheese. Fiori emphasizes that Italian food is a famous brand precisely because it belongs to its territory, criticizing pre-prepared sauces found in Brussels as inauthentic carbonara, which must be made fresh. In Milan, Christmas preparations are underway, with shop windows decorated festively and street lights scheduled to be switched on December 7th. 1030-1045 HEADLINE: Private Space Advances (Blue Origin, Rocket Lab) Challenge NASA SLS, EU Space Law CriticizedGUEST: Bob Zimmerman Bob Zimmerman reports that Blue Origin's New Glenn orbital rocket successfully completed its second launch, including landing the first stage and demonstrating reuse capability comparable to Falcon 9. New Glenn, larger than Falcon 9, is scheduled for upgrades with more powerful BE4 and BE3U engines, making it nearly comparable to NASA's costly and expendable SLS rocket. Rocket Lab set a new annual launch record with 15 successful orbital launches, surpassing Russia's frequency, and has conducted suborbital HASTE launches for military testing. India is upgrading its largest LVM rocket's upper stage for multiple restarts, essential for its space station and crewed missions. The US State Department opposes a proposed European Union space law seeking to impose EU regulations on companies from other nations, potentially discrediting the EU if passed. Finally, NASA has hired startup Catalyst to attempt a daring robotic rescue of the decaying Swift telescope. 1045-1100 THIRD HOUR 1100-1115 HEADLINE: McFaul: Autocrats Are on the Rise; US Must Unite Allies and Attract Global Talent to CompeteGUEST: Michael McFaul Michael McFaul's book Autocrats Versus Democrats argues that Putinism is driven by anti-Western ideology, making Putin a risk-taker, and McFaul believes the US erred by lacking a robust response and failing to provide arms after the 2014 Crimea invasion, stressing that helping Ukraine win is essential to inspire Russian democrats. He asserts that the appeal of autocracy is growing globally and advises that the US must align democracies against autocrats while advocating for human rights, citing the need to support imprisoned publisher Jimmy Lai. Long-term strategy requires the US and its allies to unite, as they are collectively stronger economically and militarily than autocracies, and McFaulstrongly recommends attracting international talent by reversing restrictive immigration policies, calling it a great strength the US is currently losing. 1115-1130 1130-1145 1145-1200 FOURTH HOUR 12-1215 HEADLINE: US-Saudi Nuclear Deal Raises Proliferation Concerns; Military Micro-Reactors Retreat from Front Lines GUEST: Henry Sokolski Henry Sokolski states that Saudi Crown Prince MBS's goal is to obtain a bomb option, and while the new US-Saudi agreement does not include assistance with nuclear fuel production, a reactor still provides the necessary "cover" used by countries like Iran. MBS has made clear he will acquire a bomb if Iran does, regardless of the Non-Proliferation Treaty. Sokolski also discusses the US military's Janus program for small reactors, initially conceived for vulnerable front-line bases but pushed back to remote areas like Alaska and the lower 48 due to concerns about drones and vulnerability. Finally, the US may be moving toward nuclear socialism—government ownership of commercial reactors, potentially funded by Japan—to encourage commercialization even without secured market contracts. 1215-1230 1230-1245 HEADLINE: Scenario: Russia Attacks NATO Member Estonia; Europe's "Kantian Dreams" and Lack of Readiness Prevent Article 5 Response GUEST: Jakub Grygiel Jakub Grygiel analyzes the German book If Russia Wins, which outlines a scenario where Russia attacks NATO member Estonia around 2028 following a stalled conflict in Ukraine, capturing Narva and an island before halting its advance and creating confusion within NATO. Europeans, living in "Kantian dreams of eternal peace," prioritize a quick end to the conflict and fear escalation, and the scenario posits that the US President decides a World War III over a "tiny piece of land" is not worthwhile, leading Estonia to forego invoking NATO's Article 5 out of fear of alliance rejection. Grygielnotes that decades of demilitarization leave Europe unprepared for war, highlighting that US reinforcements could take 45 days to move and societies lack the political will to fund necessary rearmament.

Wine is about the humanity.  This concept hit me on a flight home from Rome. I was watching a movie and started to weep. I realized the human soul needs passion, passion forsomething; maybe another person, maybe a lifestyle, maybe a career, but passion drives our will. And wine is full of passion. To do it right, it takes nothing less than passion. Hey there, it's Paul Kalemkiarian on Wine Talks, and in this episode, I really wanted to get personal and share how deeply humanity and humility run through every thread of the wine world at its highest levels. I open the show reflecting on a profound sense of gratitude after tasting with some top producers—it reminded me why I'm passionate about this podcast. Wine isn't just a commodity to me; it's an expression of earth, spirit, and story, and the purpose of Wine Talks is to spread that message. I also let listeners into my own little world, sharing that I've tasted 100,000 wines over the years and even built a comprehensive database (and now an AI-driven app) to catalog all these bottles. It's quirky, but it keeps me grounded in what I love. Then, I shared a special moment from a recent trip to Rome, where I had the honor of attending the Vatican for the canonization of an Armenian archbishop. It was a powerful experience—full of history, pageantry, and meaning. Of course, the promised "private audience with the Pope" wasn't exactly one-on-one selfies, but still, being there among so many was remarkable. The journey continued to Puglia in southern Italy, where I managed, despite short notice, to meet with Mark Shannon of Amano wines. Mark's story resonated deeply—an American winemaker settling in an up-and-coming wine region, driven by pure passion. We recorded a heartfelt conversation, shared great food, and I came away reminded how wine connects people at the most human level. On my flight home, I got unexpectedly emotional watching Top Gun: Maverick. It hit home how we all seek passion and escape—sometimes in movies, sometimes in travel, sometimes in wine. No matter our circumstances, that longing for meaningful off-ramps never goes away. The show then explores not only the artistry and soulfulness in winemaking, but also the nuts-and-bolts of the business—from manipulated supermarket bottles that miss the mark to innovative new packaging concepts, marketing strategies, and the challenges faced by artisans like Mark Shannon trying to access the U.S. market. I shared anecdotes about recent guests—a geophysicist connecting volcanic soils to wine character, a business-savvy marketing pro, and other passionate personalities in the wine world. I reflected on the fascinating diversity of experiences, from NBA stars getting into wine to trailblazers supporting Armenian wine in the global conversation. In the end, I emphasized why I do this: it's for the humanity, the stories, and the connections that wine brings. My hope is always to bring listeners closer to the heart of wine—whether it's a legendary Bordeaux tasting or a birthday party at my own home. It's all about sharing, learning, and feeling something real. Cheers to the humanity of wine—and thanks for joining me on this episode of Wine Talks.         #winepodcast #WineTalks #PaulKalemkiarian #winetrade #winebusiness #winetasting #humanityinwine #PugliaItaly #Armenianwine #Bordeaux #NapaValley #passionforwine #storytelling #volcanicsoil #winemarketing #appellation #Primitivo #Zinfandel #winemakers #wineculture

Wine Talks was invited to meet the Pope....well, at least by the language in the invitation, it sounded like we were going to meet the Pope. It turns out that the word "private audience" meant with 6294 other private invitees. Lol, it was an honor just to be there. Wine Talks took a detour out of Rome to the now-famed wine region of Puglia.  Home of Primitivo, Negroamaro, and Fiano, the area of Puglia has a rich Italian history on its own. As the trip was put together on short notice, I searched through my database of Puglian wines tasted and found the wines of A MANO as wines I enjoyed. In the meantime, I reached out to Vahe Keushguerian for some advice on who to contact for a podcast; after all, his famed winemaking career started in Puglia. He mentioned Mark Shannon of A Mano wines...how about that for a serendipitous connection?  I put out a quick email to Mark, and he graciously accepted...and offered to bring in a "traditional" Puglian lunch for our group.  Mark Shannon may call himself "just a student of winemaking," but after you hear his journey, you'll realize he's more of a wine whisperer—an alchemist who turns curiosity and grit into liquid art. Pour yourself a glass, because in this episode you'll travel from the bustling streets of Toronto and the sun-drenched vineyards of California, all the way to an ancient town in Puglia, Italy, where Mark Shannon has spent nearly three decades revolutionizing the region's wines. You'll discover how he ditched a potential career in medicine for the fermentative fascination of grapes, and how, propelled by his mother's wisdom to "work at something you really want to do," he has woven innovation through tradition. Journey me and Mark Shannon as they break down the science, art, and sheer perseverance it takes to make world-class wine in a place once known as Europe's bulk wine cellar. You'll learn about the true identity of Primitivo, the surprising origins it shares with California's Zinfandel, how post-communist Slovakia and Texas played into Mark's winding path, and why he chooses soil health and vineyard wisdom over trend-chasing packaging fads. They'll dig into the sociocultural shifts rocking the global wine market, dissect the mythos (and madness) of biodynamics, and debate what makes a wine truly reflect its terroir—even as climate, culture, and commerce threaten to pull it apart. By the end, you won't just know how great wine is made—you'll understand why people still obsess over it, why the right bottle at the right table can mean everything, and why Mark Shannon wouldn't trade his hard-earned slice of Puglia for anything in the world.
