Welcome to Dirt Nap City where we dive deep into the shallow end of history. Join your hosts, Kelly and Alex, as we embark on a journey through the life and times of Marco Polo, the world's most famous overachiever.

We're talking about the guy who not only traveled the Silk Road but probably brought back the world's first ever souvenir keychain. From the mundane to the mythical, we'll examine every aspect of Polo's life, from his childhood in Venice to his alleged encounters with mythical creatures.

Did he really eat spaghetti with chopsticks? Did he invent the pizza? These are the burning questions we'll be answering. We'll also explore the cultural impact of Polo's travels, from introducing pasta to the West (or did he?) to inspiring a generation of armchair adventurers.

So buckle up, grab your passport (or at least a good map), and join us on this epic adventure. Whether you're a history buff or just looking for a good laugh, the "Polo Pod" is your one-stop shop for all things Marco Polo.

Drop us a quick text and we’ll reply in the next episode!
