Presenting Mission: ImPASTAble

For the last three years, I've been on a quest to invent a new pasta shape, actually get it made, and actually sell it. And things have not gone as planned. Starting this Monday, March 1, we're telling the story of my quest in a five-part series. You can check out the trailer here

Are All Vodkas The Same?

On this week's show: my friend Alex Goldmark insists that cheap vodka makes his face turn red; I don't believe him, because I think all vodka is the same. We team up with NPR's Planet Money, where Alex happens to be the senior supervising producer, to settle this debate once and for all. Along the way we visit a vodka distillery, learn about the origins of Grey Goose, and make our own vodka. Then the two of us walk into a bar, and try to cause an allergic reaction. 

Listen to this week's Sporkful through our website, Stitcher, Apple Podcastsor Spotify.
