In this episode of Spill the Sauce: A Sunday Table Podcast, my sister joins me for a conversation about language — not just words, but accent, rhythm, and the things we absorb growing up without anyone ever explaining them.

We talk about sharing the same childhood but carrying it differently, becoming aware of our voices outside the home, and how language can shape identity, belonging, and memory.

This isn’t a conversation about teaching or defining culture.
It’s a reflection on what gets passed down quietly — and what our voices still carry.

Featuring my husband

In this episode of Spill the Sauce, I’m joined by my husband to talk about what it means to marry into a family where the culture already exists before you arrive.

We talk about learning a language that isn’t taught — it’s lived.

The unspoken rules. The rhythm of the table. The way food becomes connection.

And how belonging slowly takes shape through showing up again and again.

This isn’t a conversation about being Italian or Italian-American.

It’s about stepping into a family, learning its language in real time, and discovering what gets carried forward intentionally.

In this episode, my husband joins me to talk about what it means to learn the language of a family — not through words, but through showing up.

We talk about food, culture, and what it’s like to marry into a family where the rhythm already exists before you arrive.
