Tampopo (Episode 126) - Hot Date with Dan and Vicky
Juzo Itami's 1985 film Tampopo, about one woman's search for the perfect ramen recipe, has become so popular over the years that the restaurant industry around the world adopted it's name for many of it's own ramen and Japanese establishments. The film teams the director with his real life wife Nobuko Miyamoto, along with Kurosawa regular Tsutomu Yamazaki and Ken Watanabe, who would go on to be one of the most bankable Japanese actors around the world. Dan and Vicky discuss the culinary comedy along with several recently seen items like Zach Snyder's Justice League, Tenet, Hunter, Hunter, What's New Pussycat?, The Irregulars, and the Obama/Springsteen podcast Renegades. We also give a shout out to listener Edward Karam and discuss Dan's dip into the world of FunikiJam. Hot Date 126: Tampopo.
