What is the Sporkful podcast?

The Sporkful proclaims itself to be a podcast not for foodies, but for eaters. Sometimes it features guests like cookbook author Ayesha Curry or memoirist and musician Michelle Zauner. Other times it features quests, like a search for Rosa Parks’ Pancakes or a journey around Texas to find the best taco in the state. And recently, it featured the invention of a brand-new pasta shape: Host Dan Pashman caused quite a buzz by inventing a new pasta, designed for the most discerning of pasta eaters. The journey was documented on the podcast in a multipart series dubbed “Mission: ImPASTAble.” You can catch up with all the ImPASTAble episodes on Spotify, and even purchase the pasta (cascatelli) if Pashman convinces you of its superiority to spaghetti. While we’re on the subject, check out these pasta puns that will spice up your daily rotini. (Sorry, we couldn’t help ourselves.)

How does Chris Gethard host Beautiful/Anonymous?

Comedian and author Chris Gethard hosts the show by tweeting out a phone number and taking one call per episode. The call is anonymous and lasts for one hour. The show always follows this format, but you never know what kind of conversation you’ll get, and that is part of the beauty of it. While anonymity online can sometimes bring out people’s ugly sides, these anonymous strangers are often incredibly honest, generous, and vulnerable. In recent episodes, Gethard has had conversations with a Black teacher in Minneapolis, a 27-year-old dating a 53-year-old, a Chinese American adoptee, and a surrogate.

Another podcast about invisible things, Invisibilia debuted to a #1 spot on the iTunes podcast chart back in 2015. Lulu Miller (formerly of Radiolab) and Alix Spiegel (formerly of This American Life) were its first hosts, who were joined by Hanna Rosen of The Atlantic in Season 2. Together, they researched and presented beautifully stitched-together episodes about thoughts, fears, personalities, and emotions.
