New to HRN:

Your Last Meal with Rachel Belle

Your Last Meal

What would be your last meal?

That’s the question at the heart of Your Last Meal, a James Beard Award–finalist podcast hosted by Rachel Belle, Emmy-nominated Cascade PBS TV host of The Nosh, cookbook author of Open Sesame and former National Edward R. Murrow award-winning feature reporter.

Each episode, Belle asks her guests from Neil deGrasse Tyson to Samin Nosrat about their dream final dish. Then she goes deeper, uncovering the fascinating history, science, and culture behind the food with experts around the globe. Smart, funny, and endlessly curious, Rachel serves up unforgettable stories with every bite.

In this week’s episode, Belle shares leftovers, never-before-heard audio from Italian singer Matteo Bocelli!

In a lightning round, Bocelli, a self-described romantic, shares which celebrity wedding he had the honor of singing at earlier this summer; sets the record straight on what bruschetta really is; and discloses the only dish his dad – famed singer Andrea Bocelli has ever cooked for him (and why most Italians would be angry with the way he makes it).
