Our four-week hiatus ends with this final rerun, and it's one of our favorites. We'll be back next week with the fresh...ages-old folktales you crave, but until then please gring your teeth on this pizza tale from November of 2020:
We're in Italy this week to hear about two women, their two daughters, and two little pizzas. The good daughter shares her pizza at the wellspring, but the bad daughter refuses and is cursed. The king sends for the good daughter and gets the cursed one instead, and it'll take a choir of giant ducks to clear things up. But when the king realizes his error and finds the right daughter? Baby, you might say That's Amore.
