EPISODE 179. Special Guest Host Premium Pete.

Lil Dee is a sixteen year old Emcee from Coney Island, Brooklyn, NY. He began composing lyrics at the age of twelve when his parents noticed that he had a special gift for writing lyrics. Lil Dee consistently wrote and listened to Hip Hop music during his spare time. But unlike today’s generation, he listened and studied 90’s lyrical Hip Hop, learning the different styles of some of the greatest Emcees such as, Big L, Nas and Biggie, just to name a few.

Through his Instagram page, Lil Dee began posting 16-Bar freestyle videos, on a weekly basis, over classic Hip Hop beats. This is when celebrities, athletes and other Hip Hop legends began to take notice.

Lil Dee has opened up for greats, such as, Lost Boys, Ja Rule, Starik Selektah, Slick Rick, Biz Markie, Ghostface Killah and Rick Ross, to mention a few. He also performed at the world renowned Radio City Music Hall, alongside Vanilla Ice, and performed at the Lyricist lounge with Benny the Butcher and Talib Kwali, where he now holds the title as the youngest to ever perform. Before him, that title was held by Foxy Brown.

His debut EP, “Another Day on the Island”, produced entirely Marco Polo and The Drum Majors, opened up number 8 on the iTunes Hip Hop charts.

Lil Dee’s new EP “They Call Me Danny James” just dropped in August, and it’s out now on all streaming platforms. Check it out here:

EPISODE 169. If you've ever wanted to know where to go in Italy, let alone, where to go when you're in Puglia, you've come to the right place. Sabino sits down with Gianvito via Zoom to talk all about it as well as his current project.

For More from Gianvito - https://instagram.com/gianvitofanelli?utm_medium=copy_link

Gianvito’s Project “Vita Lenta” - https://instagram.com/vita________lenta?utm_medium=copy_link

1) Caffè dell’Incontro in Conversano is a bar and gelato shop with a history of 40 years. Here, Franco prepares the gelato as it once was. Try the “Coppa Incontro” or hazelnut, Bacio and double cream cone.

2)Bari

3)Peschici is a fishermen town on the Gargano peninsula. It’s a land of “trabucchi”, old wooden machines used by the fishermen to catch lot of fishes from the mainland. Go to the “Trabucco da Mimì” restaurant if you want to see a functioning trabucco.

4) Bombette are typical meat bombs made of capocollo and caciocavallo cheese. They’re cooked in the fornello, literally “little oven”, a traditional oven in which meat is grilled indirectly. That makes it even more golden and softer. The place to be to try fornello is Cisternino in the Itria Valley.

5)Taranto, unluckily best known for the ILVA steel factory, has one of the best old towns in Puglia. Called the “City of the Two Seas”, it is one of my favorite places in Puglia. Here you should try the puccia con gli uccelletti and the local mussels.

EPISODE 154. Gianluca Rottura was born and raised in Manhattan, New York City, when it was really New York. His parents are both Italian immigrants; his father was literally "off the boat" from Calabria and mother is from Salerno. Almost every summer was spent in Italy, traveling all over, as well as spending time with family. He devoured all the possible documents he could get his hands on detailing Italian History, both past and current. More importantly, he was very blessed and lucky to live these experiences culturally and socially. Everyone in his family made the foods and drinks they consumed and, though everyone made their own olive oil and wine, his paternal Grandfather did those very two things as a profession full-time.

His family was in the restaurant business and then opened up a one of a kind wine store in 1997. In Vino Veritas is truly a New York City Landmark and the first liquor store to open in Manhattan after Prohibition ended. The Rottura family took it over in April 1997 and dedicated a full year to completely renovating the store. Unearthed during the renovation process were huge pieces of stained glass dating back to the 1800's. The prized glass was restored to its former glory and they inserted the new store name into it. Everything was hand-designed by the father. They were and probably still are the very first and few to have a climate-controlled wine cellar where every bottle of wine sold to the customer is kept at a perfect temperature. In Vino Veritas carries wines from all over the world but specialize in Italian wines. You can visit the historic wine shop online at www.invinoveritas.nyc

Gianluca also has spent decades teaching wine classes and seminars and writing for a newspaper. He also wrote a wine book, Wine Made Easy. It was written in 2002, came out in 2004, and re-published it with a new company and updated it in 2019. The book breaks down the supposed "scary" and "difficult" subject of wine. Wine Made Easy offers the reader simple hand drawn maps of each wine country discussed in the book. No stupid graphs or boring charts. No difficult language, just simple English. It is very approachable and comforts the "intimidated" wine consumer by its easy, school work-book look.

Gianluca Rottura is working on his next book, which will focus on food. He also wrote pizzaandcoffee.com and also has a blog piazzalife.com .

To purchase the wine book, Wine Made Easy, please, visit https://www.amazon.com/Wine-Made-Easy-Gianluca-Rottura/dp/0578591618/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=wine+made+easy+rottura&qid=1615317594&sr=8-1
