Podcasts about Tuscany

This show is a recap of a the recent trip through Tuscany that my travel partner, Tourissimo, and I organized for a group of 19 Patrons (join Patreon so you can make the next one!). We go through the major DOCGs/DOCs we visited and I share some interesting things I learned and observed. A great one for armchair travel! Here are the DOCGs we explored: Vernaccia di San Gimignano Vino Nobile di Montepulciano Chianti Classico Brunello di Montalcino Morellino di Scansano And the DOCs Maremma and Bolgheri   My big takeaway from the trip: I am more optimistic than ever about Tuscan wines, which just keep getting better and better. If you don't have experience with these wines, I would recommend checking them out (especially if you like Italian food since what grows together, goes together!).

Welcome to Episode 1373; part of our Italian wine interview series set in Dusseldorf, Germany. Today Joy Livingston interviews Cristina Bargagli from Provveditore Winery Stevie Kim and her team travelled to Dusseldorf, Germany this March to collaborate with ITA, the Italian Trade Agency. ITA was organizing some incredible Masterclasses featuring the best wines Italy has to offer. Each masterclass was led by the Master Sommelier Eros Teboni (awarded Best Sommelier Worldwide in 2018), and they wanted us there to document the amazing 3 days! Tune-in each Thursday as we bring you the great interviews that unfolded over the course of 3 days. More about today's winery: The Provveditore company is located near the town of Scansano, in the south-west of Tuscany immersed in the green hills of the Maremma, extending over 40 hectares of vineyards from where you can enjoy the view of Monte Amiata and the Argentario coast. The company now in its fourth generation represents one of the most significant historical realities for the production of Morellino di Scansano since in the early seventies, Alessandro had the intuition, pioneering for the area, to bottle it himself rather than sell it in bulk. The company Superintendent in continuous expansion over the years has expanded and diversified the productions, today managed by Cristina, Alessandro's daughter, aims a lot at generational synergy guaranteeing that combination of Tradition and Innovation which represents the added value in all phases of production. To learn more visit: https://provveditore.net/ More about the interviewer: Joy Livingston is the Producer of Italian Wine Podcast. Narrator extraordinaire and Scienza whisperer Joy Livingston has been known to edit the occasional book from time to time. When Joy is not busy Producing the podcast she is also working hard on the Mamma Jumbo Shrimp YouTube channel where many of the interviews stream on video! Let's keep in touch!

Thanks for tuning in again to Behind Greatness. We are joined by Fil at his home in Toronto for this chat. Fil is an assaggiatore di olio d'oliva. He is one of 31 accredited Olive Oil Tasters in the world (and only 1 of 3 in North America), having trained 4 years at the oldest and most prestigious olive oil tasting school in the world, ONAOO (https://onaoo.it/en/onaoo/). Fil was born in Tuscany, moved with his parents to Venezuela as a boy and immigrated to Canada to at 16, knowing little English. He soon discovered a world of music which he dove into as a connection with his new world. By the time he was on his pre-med path at university, he left to live a life of rock and roll in a punk band for over a decade – making music and touring around the world. But in 2007, something else moved him. He tasted an olive oil when in Tuscany, changing his life forever. Being Fil, he closed his eyes and dove in. This time, his connection was with his curiosity about the “almost spiritual” properties of olive oil. We hear about his thoughts on his deep experience with music and the “communion”, and the similarities with the mystical olive grove. No left brain activity needed here. We discuss the “gift exchange” phenomenon, changing culture, bringing Yale University on board and the magic of the first kiss of the harvest. Because of that tree.

Welcome to episode 1366, another episode of “On The Road Edition”, hosted by Stevie Kim. In this episode Stevie is at Villa Cavendri in Verona and she is talking with Vittorio Frescobaldi More about today's guest: Vittorio Frescobaldi is the Junior Export Manager - Benelux, Denmark, Italy at Crus et Domaines de France. He comes from a very famous Italian wine family, and he has a great interest in French strains, which is what he speaks about in his interview with Stevie! More about Frescobaldi: The name Frescobaldi has a tradition in the world of wine that dates back over 700 years and has since involved 30 generations. In the 60s of the last century, Vittorio Frescobaldi (Sr.), owner of the family properties together with his brothers Dino, Maria, Ferdinando and Leonardo, gave this tradition a modern organization by creating a winery with headquarters in Florence, nine properties in Tuscany and one in Friuli. It consists of over 890 hectares of vineyards, planted in very different soil and climatic conditions, from which 7 million high quality bottles are obtained every year. Difficult to make customers, admirers and journalists perceive such a varied reality. The Frescobaldi's succeeded by exhibiting the characteristic elements of their most important estates in a hall, and offering visitors a virtual journey through their biodiversity, using all five senses: smell and taste, in the first place, tasting the most significant wine, paired with gastronomic specialties of the area, and identifying one by one the perfumes in the essences that the oenologist of the estate made available. It was a game in which sight, touch and even hearing were also involved, with specially chosen pieces of music being listened to. An original way to get to know the ancient Frescobaldi properties, the Pomino Castle, the Castiglioni estate, the Nipozzano Castle, but also the more recent ones, Castelgiocondo, Montalcino, Santa Maria, in the Grosseto Maremma, Luce della Vite, born as a joint- venture with the Mondavi of Napa Valley and then fully acquired, and finally the Attems estate in the Gorizia Collio. Montesodi and Mormoreto come from the crus of Nipozzano, and Lamaione from those of Castelgiocondo: the SuperTuscans that have given the most satisfaction to the Frescobaldis. Today, the family winemaker, Lamberto Frescobaldi, takes care of its production and with him three other representatives of the latest generation already work in the company: Tiziana and Diana Frescobaldi and Stefano Benini. Find out more by visiting: https://www.frescobaldi.com/it/ More about the host Stevie Kim: Stevie Kim hosts Clubhouse sessions each week (visit Italian Wine Club & Wine Business on Clubhouse), these recorded sessions are then released on the podcast to immortalize them! She often also joins Professor Scienza in his shows to lend a hand keeping our Professor in check!

Season 7 – Gap Year: Mediterranean Europe Episode 10 If you're planning a trip to Italy, chances are, you are seriously considering some time in Florence. And for good reason.

Keegan Prue, the author of The IVF Dad,  joins Julia to share the story of infertility he and his wife Olivia experienced. Keegan wrote this book from a man's perspective, and he puts pen to paper to help other men as well as couples to deal with this disappointment and to help them work through the feelings and the process.  You will hear the details of this couple's journey through infertility with nothing held back. Today's conversation is authentic and encouraging. Don't miss this episode of Stork'd.     IN THIS EPISODE:    [00:00] Julia shares facts regarding men being silent on the subject of  infertility  [04:02] Keegan shares his personal and professional background, how he and Olivia met and what their goals were for a family before realizing they weren't getting pregnant  [12:29] The disappointment of not getting pregnant and their journey to get educated on infertility. Olivia's regular OBGYN gives inaccurate information. Next step – Reproductive Endocrinologist (RE) and IVF treatments were recommended  [20:01] Regular conversations between the couple, education and exploring options before the diagnosis prepared them to step into IVF more readily, as well as clarifying why they wanted to have a family  [24:30] Keegan shares the experience of becoming pregnant twice and the miscarriages. Other means of having children are explored  [34:55] As a couple, they discussed nurturing one another and recognizing that self-care is needed.

Welcoming their first child, Eliza  [42:51] Keegan tells what prompted him to write the book, The IVF Dad, and he shares his definition of family    KEY TAKEAWAYS:    To become pregnant, don't rely on a general OB GYN to determine hormone levels, etc. Instead, when there is a problem, go to the experts in the field of infertility.  It is critical to discuss what you need from your partner during difficulties.  Everyone's needs are different; sometimes, a person just needs space.  There are many resources available to educate oneself about infertility. Avail yourself of the social media community as well as seek professional help.    RESOURCE LINKS:    FREE RESOURCE for Stork'd listeners - Becoming a Team When Family Planning Gets Hard: Conversation Starters for Partners Doing Fertility Treatments.   Stork'd - Facebook   Stork'd - Instagram     Stork'd- YouTube     Keegan Prue - Instagram    Keegan Prue - Website    The IVF Dad Book    BIO   Keegan E. Prue is an author and educator from Upstate New York. He and his wife struggled with infertility, going through two rounds of IVF, two miscarriages, and three embryo transfers before the birth of their first daughter. That experience inspired him to write "The IVF Dad: What I Learned on My Infertility Journey, and How it Can Help You," to help other men and couples going through fertility issues feel more informed, empowered, and equipped to support themselves and each other. In his spare time, Keegan enjoys cooking (grilled greek chicken and veggies are a current favorite), traveling (on the bucket list: the Scottish highlands, Tuscany, and New Zealand), and spending time with his family.

These sessions are recorded from Clubhouse and replayed here on the Italian Wine Podcast! Listen in on this series as Italian Wine Ambassadors all over the world chat with Stevie and their chosen wine producer. Which producer would you interview if you had your pick? More about the Co-Moderator - Charlotte Ho Charlotte's love for Italian wines was born during a trip to Tuscany in 2012. After that, she visited Italy every year, exploring different regions and their local food and wines. During Covid-19 — unable to travel, Charlotte decided to embark on a journey to systematically study and learn about Italian grapes and wines. With a background in Law and Economics (but not having studied wine...) she (boldly) enrolled in VIA's IWM course in 2021 and (miraculously) became a VIA IWA the following year. Apart from promoting Italian wines in Hong Kong through volunteering in events and tastings, Charlotte also started a social media account in 2021 dedicated to the sharing and spreading of knowledge and love for Italian wines.

Sonia's mission is to protect Mount Etna's biodiversity and identify and work with ancient and almost extinct local grape varieties, while maintaining maximum respect to the Etna traditions, the environment and the local communities. Her work on ancient "reliquia" grape varieties is carried with the support of the University of Catania.

What I've noticed for so many well-meaning women is chronic isolation. We've been conditioned to believe that in order to get further ahead, we are better off “doing things ourselves.” What I've also come to notice is that when we show up for ourselves and indulge in the art of collaboration, we find deeper alignment.

What you'll learn in this episode:   How Thereza helps art collectors enter the world of contemporary jewelry. Why contemporary jewelry shouldn't be a niche, but a part of the larger art and design scene. How Thereza defines contemporary jewelry, and how she became interested in it. How she selects artists for her art and jewelry gallery, Thereza Pedrosa Gallery. Why even delicate art shouldn't be hidden away. Why quality matters just as much as aesthetics in a piece of jewelry.   About Thereza Pedrosa   Thereza Pedrosa (Rio de Janeiro, 1985) is an art historian, independent curator and gallery owner. She graduated in Conservation of Cultural Heritage at Ca' Foscari University in Venice with a thesis on art works on paper belonging to the Peggy Guggenheim Collection. She continued her studies and obtained a MA in Management and Conservation of Cultural Heritage at Ca' Foscari University in Venice with a thesis on the use of niello in contemporary European jewelry. In 2009 she collaborated as assistant registrar at the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, cataloging all the museum's works on paper. Her work led to the exhibition Revealing Papers: The Hidden Treasures of the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, for which Thereza was the scientific coordinator (Lucca Center of Contemporary Art). Since 2011 she has been working as an curator, creating exhibitions, catalogues and projects for artists and galleries in Italy, Switzerland, Germany, France and the Netherlands. In 2012 she founded the blog Beautiful People Live Art, dedicated to art, design, architecture, photography and art jewelly. In 2019 she established with her business partner Elinor Garnero a contemporary art gallery with a focus on art jewelry, the “Thereza Pedrosa Gallery”. In 2021 she joined as an expert the examining committee of the Alchimia Contemporary Jewellery School in Florence. She brings a genuinely international perspective to her curatorial activity also thanks to her residencies in Switzerland, Germany and, since 2015, the Netherlands. Additional Resources: Thereza Pedrosa Gallery  Instagram Facebook LinkedIN Photos Available on TheJewelryJourney.com Transcript: For Thereza Pedrosa, no form of art is more important than another. At her gallery, contemporary jewelry, sculpture, paintings and other fine art are all given equal standing, and she's helped numerous art collectors discover jewelry for the first time. She joined the Jewelry Journey Podcast to talk about why contemporary jewelry is still unknown to most art collectors and why that should change; how she balances raising children with owning a gallery; and what she discovered at this year's jewelry fairs. Read the episode transcript here.  Sharon: Hello, everyone. Welcome to the Jewelry Journey Podcast. This is the first part of a two-part episode. Please make sure you subscribe so you can hear part two as soon as it's released later this week.    Today, my guest is Thereza Pedrosa of Thereza Pedrosa Gallery. Thereza is speaking to us from Asolo, Italy—I don't know if I said that right—which is near Florence. It's supposed to be a very lovely medieval village. She and her partner and friend, Elinor Garnero, founded the gallery in 2019, and it features art and art jewelry. Thereza has been in many countries studying, curating and exhibiting. She just took part in Schmuck, which, if you don't know, is one of the world's biggest art jewelry exhibits. Everybody in the world is there. We'll hear all about her jewelry journey today. Thereza, welcome to the program.   Thereza: Thank you for having me, Sharon.   Sharon: So glad to have you. Tell us about your jewelry journey. Were you considered artistic? Are people surprised when you tell them what you do?   Thereza: I think someone who knows me from when I was a child would not be surprised that I work with art and jewelry right now. I grew up in the family as an artist. My father is an artist, and I always went with him to exhibitions and art fairs. I loved to go with him when he was making Murano glasses and blown sculptures. I would go to the studio with him and take photos of him working. So, I think those who saw me growing up will not be really surprised that I love art and work with art.   Sharon: It doesn't sound surprising at all. I didn't know you were really exposed to art. Tell us about your jewelry education, then. How did you learn about jewelry?   Thereza: I started out with my father because he's a plastic artist, mainly a painter and sculptor. Sometimes during the 55 years of his career, he made Murano glasses, sculptures, mosaics, paper, iron, brass; any kind of media. Around 2000, when I was around 15 years old, he made a collection of jewelry. To make this collection of jewelry, he bought a machine for soldering. He did this beautiful collection, and then he moved back to painting and other kinds of sculptures. I asked him, “Well, you have the machine. You know how to do it. Why don't you teach me how to solder so I can make some jewelry for myself?” He taught me the basics and I made some jewelry for myself. Then some design shops sold my pieces and they wanted to start selling them. This is how I started to get involved with contemporary jewelry.    I grew up less than one hour from Padua, where there is a really important jewelry school, the Selvatico, where Babetto and Pavan and many others are from. Growing up, I saw some exhibitions of Giampaolo Babetto and Annamaria Zanella. I saw their works and I got to love their work. That's how everything started.   Sharon: So, you didn't learn classically, right? You didn't go to school and learn. That's not the way you learned.   Thereza: No, when I needed to decide what to study in university, I said, “O.K., I want to stay in the field of art,” but I didn't see myself as an artist. I didn't think I had it in me to make things except for designing my jewelry. I said, “O.K., what can I study? If I study history of art, then I can go into teaching; otherwise, what do I do with history of art?”    In Paris, in the university environment, there is this interesting course called conservation of cultural heritage. In conservation of cultural heritage, we had exams about the laws of art when you work in a museum or salon. Nationally and internationally for an exhibition, there are a lot of laws involving how long the piece can stay away from the museum and these kinds of things. I studied chemistry of conservation for paintings, drawings, and sculptures, and museography, which is what kind of temperature you need in the rooms and the lighting. So, everything you need for the economics, how to find funding for the exhibition. Everything you needed to be a curator or a registrar in a museum, that was what I studied.    I thought I would love to work in a museum as a registrar because I'm shy. I didn't see myself as a curator that needed to be the first in line. I said, “A registrar, he's more in contact with the art pieces, but a little bit in the background.” That was my dream at the beginning, but then I started moving around so much that it was difficult to find a permanent position in a museum. I started organizing exhibitions as a freelance curator for galleries in collaboration with some museums.    Sharon: You did that on your own with a museum? Did you come up with the idea, or did they come up with the idea for the exhibitions you did?   Thereza: The exhibition I did was a coordination with the drawings of the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, a collection in Venice, and I did the coordination with the Lucca Center for Contemporary Art in Tuscany. The idea for the exhibition was mine, and it was based on my bachelor's thesis. When I was writing my bachelor's thesis, I decided I wanted to write about the Guggenheim Museum in Venice, but I wanted to write about something new. I told them I wanted to write about the drawings, and I asked if could study the archives. They said, “Yes, I'm sure it would be lovely, but we never made a catalog of the drawings of the museum.”    So, my thesis became the cataloging of all the drawings in the museum. It covered how they arrived in the museum, how they received them as a gift from the artist. She bought them from the artist or from some galleries, so that's how they arrived in the collection. I also cataloged which exhibitions they participated in, which books they were published in, the state of conservation, everything you needed to know about the drawings of the collection. Then we made the Peggy Guggenheim Collection, which was at the Lucca Center of Contemporary Art and was only about the drawings of the museum.   Sharon: That sounds like a huge thing, the Peggy Guggenheim drawings. How many were there?   Thereza: I think there were around 80. More than 70, around 80. Drawings are sometimes considered less important artworks, but I've always loved paper media. Actually, in the collection, there are many works that are not just a preparation for a big painting. They are actually works in themselves. Klee, Kandinsky, many important artists from the collections also have works on paper. It really was a beautiful collection.   Sharon: How did you come to own an art gallery, you and your friend Elinor? How did you start an art jewelry gallery, I should say. What happened?   Thereza: I was organizing exhibitions for other galleries. I opened some exhibition galleries in Germany, in the Netherlands, in France. At the same time, I was still making my own jewelry. Then I got pregnant with my first son, and I decided to take a break from my jewelry to organize exhibitions. When my second child, my daughter, was around six months old, Elinor and I were talking and I was saying, “I would love to open my own gallery one day, but I cannot do it now because my kids are two and six months old.” They were too young, and I wanted to be there for them. I said, “I can do it in the future, but right now, I want to be flexible to stay with my kids. If I open a gallery, I need to be there.”    She told me, “Well, I don't feel like I can open a gallery alone,” because her background is architectural. She was in architecture and then art management, but she didn't study history of art as a main course. She was thinking, “O.K., I could be at the gallery, but I don't feel like I can organize the exhibitions myself and do everything by myself.” So, we complement each other very well because she's the one to actually stay at the gallery all the time, and I am the one that organizes the exhibitions and makes the selection of the artists for the gallery and the online shop, the online website. She's the one who stays at the gallery and deals with the collectors.   Sharon: How did you come to art jewelry? It doesn't sound like that was your initial interest. Did your father do art jewelry when he showed you jewelry? Would you call it art jewelry?   Thereza: Yes, he was an artist that made jewelry during some periods of his life, like many other artists like Picasso and Talbert. It was not their main thing, but between other things, they also made some jewelry. Also, in 2012, I opened a blog. The name was Beautiful People Love Art.   Sharon: Beautiful People Love Art.   Thereza: Yes, Beautiful People Love Art. I went on with this blog for seven, eight years. The main thing of the blog was to show how all forms of art are important and interconnected. All sides are the same thing. I don't see drawings as less important than paintings, or sculptures as more important than jewelry. I think they are all important, just different media. When I opened my own gallery, I decided we would be an art gallery. We'll have paintings and sculptures, but I was already showing a lot of contemporary jewelry with my blog.    I fell in love with contemporary jewelry while I was visiting Schmuck and Joya Barcelona and getting to know the artists. Actually, when I was finishing my master's degree, I wrote a thesis about contemporary jewelry and the use of niello in contemporary jewelry. I got in contact with many artists, Giampaolo Babetto, Annamaria Zanella, Phillipe Cizetta. I got to know the field better and I really fell in love with it.    When I decided to open my open my own gallery, I wanted contemporary jewelry to be part of it. I truly believe the contemporary jewelry field should be more open. Not a niche, but more open to art lovers in general. I think to be an art gallery, it helps to make contemporary jewelry be known to people that love art. Really often, they don't even know that contemporary jewelry exists. So, with the gallery we try to get the field of contemporary jewelry to be known outside of the field and the collectors of the field, to get it known to art collectors, design collectors, people that love art in general.   Sharon: Do you find a lot of resistance where people say, “I like the art, but the jewelry is just jewelry”? What do you find?   Thereza: We find everything. My experience at Schmuck was really interesting in this way, because we organized a contemporary jewelry exhibition with 15 artists we represent at the gallery. We were guests of Petenbone Auction House. They were having an auction week with design and glass, so a lot of people that were coming during the week weren't there for the contemporary jewelry exhibition. They would just come inside the auction house and look at the jewelry and go out. There were people coming to see the purview of the auction house and the design and glass. They were just there to see the pieces of the auction and go out without looking at the jewelry.    But there were also a lot of people that came inside to see the jewelry, and they looked at me and were like, “Oh my God, these Murano glass pieces are amazing,” or “Look at this piece from the 70s or this lamp from the 60s. There are so many beautiful pieces here.” There were some people that came to see the purview of the design auction and discovered our exhibition, and they were like, “Oh wow, we've never seen contemporary jewelry before. We didn't know it existed,” but they asked a lot of questions and were interested in understanding the different artists. There are some people that collect one kind of thing, and they want only that. Then there are people that love art in general and get excited about everything. It was very nice last week to see people going around and discovering contemporary jewelry or glass and design. It was a good mix.   Sharon: How do you choose your artists? When you have an exhibit, how do you decide which ones to have?   Thereza: For example, last week, we had an exhibition for Schmuck. We represent around 45 artists at the gallery, but we had limited space to show pieces. I wanted to show them as well as I could. I also wanted some space so you could enjoy each piece and show a little bit more of each artist, so even if you didn't know that piece, you could have an idea of his work. I decided to invite 15 artists and not bring all the artists we have at the gallery to permit people to enjoy the ones with small pieces and finalize the decision about, “O.K., I want to show a little bit of what we have at the gallery.”    It was the first time for us at Schmuck, so I invited some artists that are really well-established, who showed that we have masters of the field. I also wanted to show that we have young artists with careers and artists that work with traditional materials, and others that work with different materials like paper or food or plastic, resin and anything else. I really liked the mix. I don't like to show all pieces from the same artist here and five pieces of the other artist there. I like to mix them, and I like to have a dialogue between the pieces. I wanted the artists of the exhibition to have harmony when you saw it together. That was the important thing I wanted to get across with the exhibition, and I hope people enjoy it.   Sharon: It sounds like they would enjoy it and be exposed to things they wouldn't see a lot. Tell us a little more about who buys from your gallery.   Thereza: All kinds of people. We have contemporary jewelry collectors that love contemporary jewelry, and they come back all the time nationally and internationally. We work in an area where there were many important contemporary jewelry galleries in the past. In the last 10 years, they all closed. They closed more than 10 years ago, because the gallerists retired one after the other. For example, in Padua, there aren't any galleries specializing in contemporary jewelry anymore. We have a lot of collectors that live there who don't have a gallery close by anymore to find contemporary jewelry, so now they come to us.   We also have art collectors that love paintings and sculptures. They come inside to see the paintings, but then they discover contemporary jewelry. They get involved with contemporary jewelry and start buying contemporary jewelry also. That's very nice. We like it when that happens.   Sharon: When you say people are collectors of contemporary jewelry and art, are they people who might say to you, “I want a Babetto piece. Call me any time you get one,” or do they just come in and look around?   Thereza: Both. Sometimes there is someone who is really looking for a Babetto piece, and they come to us because they are looking for a specific piece or a specific artist. We also have collectors that just come inside because they want to have a look, or they come every two or three months to see what is new at the gallery.    With the internet, now we are working a lot online also. It happens often that whoever comes to the gallery was already checking our website, especially our Instagram page. So, when they come to the gallery—because we publish almost every day—often they come to the gallery and already know what they want to see in real life. They come and say, “Oh, I saw this artist and that artist on your Instagram page or on your website. I want to see this and that piece in real life and decide between them.”    There are people that come inside without knowing what they are looking for. There are people that come to have a look at specific pieces, and there are people that really collect. They decide before, “I want a piece of this artist,” and they come to see what we have of this specific artist.    Sharon: We will have photos posted on the website.

Les, Kurt, and Jason are back after a long break filled with lots of travel! Les went to New Orleans and Fresno! Kurt went to Fresno, too! And Jason went to Sydney, Australia! But now all 3 are back in their respective homes, though Jason and Les are very much over the unbelievable amounts of rain (and snow!) that LA has been getting. Kurt found out that he is apparently someone's “hall pass” (but who's the top?) Plus, there's a ton of Blac Chyna news all centered on her new makeUNDER. Then the guys are finally ready to head to Tuscany, the setting for Hallmark's 2022 film Unthinkably Good things. The first film under their Mahogany label (with a largely black cast), the movie is gorgeous, features 3 leads that all have genuine chemistry with one another, deals with real problems, and back to back montages (!) the movie seems so stuffed that it could benefit from spending more time in this world. But that doesn't mean we need to ever know if one of the characters REALLY think his sheep are his girlfriends.    Facebook : alifetimeofhallmark Instagram : lifetimeofhallmarkpodcast Theme song generously donated by purple-planet.com

When pairing wine with food, you might think about the protein, the spiciness, the seasonings. But do you ever think about the acidity in your dish and how it will play with wine? Acidity is an important element in Italian cuisine (and throughout the world), and we're talking about how to pair wines well with acidic dishes.

Con questa puntata, concludiamo il duo di episodi di “guerre incivili” che pubblicherò su “Storia d'Italia”! Come avrete capito, il titolo fa riferimento alla “questione meridionale”, uno dei grandi rompicapi irrisolti dell'Italia unitaria. Anche i Romani avevano una loro questione irrisolta, come vedremo. Dopo secoli di guerre ed espansioni, Roma è arrivata a dominare l'intera penisola italiana, con una complicata rete di alleanze e associazioni al potere centrale di Roma. La maggior parte degli abitanti della penisola non sono però romani, e non condividono i privilegi dell'Impero mediterraneo che Roma ha conquistato.---Per ascoltare le altre puntate, con uno sconto del 50% sull'abonamento annuale, andate su https://italiastoria.com/guerre-incivili o utilizzate il seguente link:https://www.storytel.com/it/it/c/marcocappelli---Per acquistare i miei libri:IL MIGLIOR NEMICO DI ROMA, Amazon (link affiliato): https://amzn.to/3DG9FG5PER UN PUGNO DI BARBARI, Amazon (link affiliato: https://amzn.to/3l79z3u---Ti piace il podcast?

Understanding Italian wines takes study and patience. With over 2000 wine grape varieties in the country, it is hard to sort them out. When you break down the country, there is a bit more clarity with grape varieties but little local varieties will confuse you. Umbria, just south of Tuscany, follows suit. Unlike its northern neighbor, it does not grow Sangiovese as the mainstay red grape but grows Sagrantino instead. Valentino Valentina will sort it all out for you.

Who are you, really?  Most of us think we know ourselves fairly well.  Yet, many of us can't help but feel something is missing.  Despite spending months, years, and even decades on our own personal development we find ourselves somewhat stuck.   In his book “Awaken to Your True Self”, author Andrew Daniel offers us a different view on transformation, embodiment, healing and shadow work, to help guide us through the process of awakening to our true selves.   Andrew forces us to take a deep and honest look at ourselves and discover the reasons for not having and being what we truly want.  Yes, I found parts of this book to be really irritating! Ha ha ha.  But I found my conversation with Andrew Daniel to be fascinating.   We talked about truth being the pathway to freedom and fulfillment.  We discussed the holistic philosophies, mindfulness work, psychology, spirituality, and somatic therapy modalities that make up the content of the book.   Our conversation, as well as his book, is about how we can overcome our greatest challenge, ourselves.   Andrew Daniel is an award-winning author, and director at the Center for Cinesomatic Development.  At the age of 18, Andrew coded a particle and physics engine that was utilized by multiple fortune 100 companies. Yeah so, not too impressive.  He is also an advisor for the Alan Watts Organization and teaches his Cinesomatics workshops globally from London to New York, Tuscany and Switzerland-helping professionals to identify the elusive patterns that keep them stuck.   Enjoy For more information visit:www.andrewdaniel.org Awaken to Your True Self can be found on audible, itunes, amazon and wherever books are typically found.  Visit us at:www.theselfhelpantidote.com

Welcome to episode 1303, another episode of “On The Road Edition”, hosted by Stevie Kim. In this episode Stevie is in Castello della Sala (Part of the Antinori Group) in Umbria continuing her conversation with Massimiliano Pasquini, general manager. Today's episode is part 2 of 2. More about today's winery Castello della Sala is located in Umbria, a short distance from the border with Tuscany, about 18 kilometers from the historic city of Orvieto. The lands of the Castle, an imposing medieval manor house, extend for 600 hectares, of which 200 hectares are planted with vines, halfway between the Paglia river and the summit of Monte Nibbio. The Castello della Sala was built in 1350 for Angelo Monaldeschi della Vipera, whose family had arrived in Italy following Charlemagne in the 9th century. From 1300 the members of the family opposed each other for the control of Orvieto, achieved in 1437 by Gentile, nephew of Angelo dei Monaldeschi della Vipera and dictator of the city for about a decade. After Gentile's death in 1466, a serene season was inaugurated at the castle crowned by the peacemaking marriage between Pietro Antonio della Vipera, Gentile's son, and his cousin Giovanna Monaldeschi della Cervara. The 200 hectares of vineyards, cultivated with traditional varieties such as Procanico and Grechetto, but also with Chardonnay, Sauvignon Blanc, Sèmillon, Pinot Blanc, Viognier and a small amount of Traminer and Riesling, are located at an altitude of 220 - 470 meters sea level. That of Castello della Sala is an area highly suited to the production of whites with one exception: Pinot Noir, finds in this terroir the ideal conditions to express itself at its best. The area is characterized by a clayey, calcareous soil, rich in fossil shells, with vineyards well exposed to the sunrise and with excellent temperature ranges.

Celia Milano began her research 20 years ago before the internet tools we have today. Listen to how she contacted family by letter. We also discuss her three books.I was born in New York City and raised in Yonkers, New York. I have several degrees, including an Associate Degree in Applied Science and Technology from Thomas A. Edison State College in Trenton, NJ, a Bachelor Degree in Business Administration from Georgian Court University in Lakewood, NJ and a Master of Science in Management from College of St. Elizabeth, Morristown, NJ. I attended college for over 20 years and one of the sisters at Georgian Court University called me "a lifer."For over 30 years, I worked as a computer software engineer in the military and petroleum industries. I am retired and devote my time to researching my family tree. In my free time, I help guide people in writing their memoirs, as I feel it is the most precious gift to the family.I have written three books: Sicilian Family Adventures; Life's Curves: When the Present Triggers the Past and Tuscany in July: An Adventure of a Lifetime.I am also on the board of directors for The Sicilian Project, a non-profit organization that offers free English instructional camps to the children in Sicily. The Sicilian Project is important to me because as a child, I was not allowed to learn the Sicilian dialect, as the thought at that time in New York was to be “Americanized.” The idea that Sicilian children will become bi-lingual and have a greater advantage in the world is very rewarding to me.mosaic: Exploring Jewish Issuesmosaic is Jewish Federation of Palm Beach County's news podcastListen on: Apple Podcasts SpotifyFarmers and Nobles traces the research path of blogger and podcast host Bob Sorrentino.

Intriguing, enthralling, enigmatic and ultimately moving, words that go some ways towards describing this month's pick, CERTIFIED COPY (2010). Directed by Abbas Kiarostami and starring Juliette Binoche and William Shimmel, the film depicts two people with an undetermined relationship to one another as they spend the day in Tuscany. And so questions arise: What is the exact nature of their relationship? Does objective truth exist? And does it matter if it does? ubscribe on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or Android.
