About this Episode

Giuseppe Verdi once said, "You can keep the universe, just give me Italy," and anyone who’s been there understands why. Italy seems to have it all: the madness and romance of Rome, the pristine style of Milan, and the rugged beauty of Sicily and Sardinia. Italy is an obvious choice for one of our MisInfoNation episodes, with the whole world thinking it knows exactly what Italy is like. But can the clichés about Italy all be true? Is Italy really a country full of tall, dark, mafia-connected, passionate people who love pasta and make some of the best food on earth? In this episode, Milan-born photographer Dario Flores D’arcais joins us to help sort through the facts and fictions of that beautiful boot-shaped peninsula jutting into the Mediterranean Sea—Italia.
