Rhiannon opens the tell’s second season with an exploration of pasta from around the world. We cover the history, cultural significance, and types and shapes of pasta from around the world. Come listen as we talk about what qualifies as pasta, whether the shapes taste different, and more. We end the episode with the season’s first venture down the rabbit hole.

This podcast is produced and edited by me, Rhiannon. Music written and performed by our resident noisemaker, Tay Clarke. Find the show online at www.thatsnicepod.com, or follow our Instagram, @thatsnicepod.
