Friday, April 26th is our Shakespeares Baptismal Day show -- because that is the only real record we have, and we are careful historians here, despite the slightly insouciant attitude! Well do a quick roundup of Shakespeare in the news -- theres been quite a bit, actually! Our special guest this week is author Francine Segan whos written 6 historical cookbooks, including Shakespeares Kitchen, a gorgeously illustrated, delightfully entertaining compendium of recipes that are as delicious as they are fascinating! She has had to modify the ingredients here & there; well discuss why -- as well as what some of the differences are between food in the 16th c. and now. (Upcoming: Hollywood Golden Age star Jane Withers; Quiet: The Power of Introverts in a World That Cant Stop Talking author Susan Cain) Producer: Robert Gonyo & John Gaines as Rod Serling P.S. The 4th image is "pear" meatballs in broth & they are delicious!
