This week on Snacky Tunes, host Darin Bresnitz welcomes back Leah Ferrazzani, founder of Semolina Artisanal Pasta and now the heart behind Ferrazzani’s, her new café in Altadena. Leah shares what it’s been like shifting from the world of CPG to running a neighborhood spot, how she's been nourishing her community in the wake of the Eaton Canyon fire, and the sounds that set the tone inside her café. 

Then, we head into the archives for a performance from rapper False Prpht, who recounts the chance airport encounter in North Carolina that led to a creative partnership with producer Poozy—and the music that followed.
