Ep5 Agricola

Carmen Mazzola got married exactly one day before Italy's severe lockdown. Thus far, Carmen and her husband Giuseppe have spent every day of their marriage inside their house. Only one at a time being allowed to leave for groceries with a signed permission slip.  

With the relaxing of restrictions this week, all Italian citizens are anxiously awaiting the exhale. Especially, Carmen.

Carmen is owner and head chef of cooking school and restaurant La Cucina Del Gusto in Sorrento. She works with world-wide clientele seeking to learn authentic Neapolitan recipes for pizzas and pastas. Sorrento is a coastal town that is dependent on tourists for its survival. For Carmen, the question is when will people begin to travel again?

Emily Lindl is part of the Steamfitter’s union Local 601 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin. For almost a decade prior, Emily worked as a Flight Attendant for Midwest Airlines.

In this episode, Emily shares how at the age of 30 she began a whole new career in the male dominated field of steamfitting.

*Note: A steamfitter works on and installs heating, cooling, gas, and process piping. In layman's terms, a steamfitter's main goal is to make sure whatever's flowing through the pipes keeps on flowing. Emily works with pipe made of stainless steel, carbon steel, copper, brass, pvc, cpvc, and poly propylene to name a few. She knows how to cut and bond all these materials and her favorite material to work with is copper. Emily's favorite offset to design is a 45 degree offset which helps with what’s known as the pressure drop.

Mario Pendilla is a Camera Operator on hit Fox show MasterChef. He also happens to look fresh fresh fresh in his Jordans. The third in this series on Sneakerheads, Mario Pendilla takes us on a trip through his closet. A self-proclaimed NON-Sneakerhead, Mario owns 35 plus pairs of Jordans. Each pair of shoes in their original box, some duplicates, but each boasting a photo on the exterior of the box of exact contents inside.

According to an article in Forbes "A Sneakerhead is a person who collects trades and/or admires sneakers as a form of hobby." and according to Urban Dictionary, "One who is in love with but not limited to Jordans, Forces, Dunks, Maxes, etc." And I would say Forrest Tagliamonte lives up to this expectation. Pushing upward of 200 shoes, mostly Jordans and Airmax Forrest enlightens the soul when talking about style. Especially when it comes to what you put on your feet. 

*Note: During this interview, Forrest kept it real classy. Gold chain, black form fitted jeans, pair of Tiffany Dunks and a white T-shirt with The Notorious BIG quote "And if you don't know now you know".
