  • Probably the best ever.

    If you love literature, nature, poetry, beauty, theology, fairytales, and contemplation, I’m telling you, this podcast is the Italian-air-kiss of a mixture of all those things. I’m only a few episodes in, but y’all. It is so freaking good. In a way I hate that I’m just now finding this podcast in 2023, but in another way I’m actually glad because I can binge listen. 🤣

    So yeah. Praise hands. 🙌🏼
