A lazy day from my couch with potatoes and eggs.

Episode 1: A Lazy Day

For the very first episode of the ItalAmerican Podcast, I kept it simple. No studio, no fancy setup—just me, my phone, a couch, an espresso, and a plate of potatoes and eggs. 🍳☕

I wanted this to feel like we’re just hanging out—family-style. The kind of Sunday where you relax, talk, laugh, and let the conversation go where it goes. This is me taking it straight to the streets, raw and unfiltered, the way real ItalAmericans live and talk.

Next week we head into the studio, but today? Today is a lazy Sunday with your host Michael Wheels Parise—nothing polished, nothing scripted, just real.
