Episode 52: Ancient Wonders and Flavorful Feasts of Micronesia

Smarticus Tells History

Ever wondered about the enchanting ruins that rival the mystique of the great pyramids? Let's unwrap the secrets of Nan Madal together! Join Smartacus and yours truly, Phoenix, as we journey to the heart of Micronesia and endeavor to untangle the perplexing history of the ancient city dubbed the Venice of the Pacific. Not only will this episode tickle your fancy for untold historical tales, but we also promise a touch of culinary adventure—recreating a local chicken dish that's bound to get your taste buds dancing with its exotic blend of chili, curry, and a dash of ginger.
Our kitchen capers aren't just about the sizzle and spice; they serve as a warm prelude to the rich stories of Nan Madal. From our trial and error in the quest for the perfect seasoning balance to the intricacies of an ancient civilization that has left modern-day scholars scratching their heads in wonder, we'll share it all. And don't worry about the ginger; we've got alternatives for those of you who share my peculiar aversion to it. So come along, grab your favorite cold one, and let's indulge in a hearty serving of history, laughter, and some seriously good food stories.
