On our episode this week we're stirring up the largest bowl of Ramen with the Japanese classic "Tampopo"! Directed by Juzo Itami, "Tampopo" is a film that has been publicly called the very first "ramen western", a play on the famous term Spaghetti Western. But it's more than just a term for this film, as there is drama, comedy, and plenty of ramen! We discuss this and more on our episode this week! Plot: Two Japanese milk-truck drivers help a restaurant owner learn how to cook great noodles.
