This week we're joined by Domenico Colosimo, a proud Italian Australian and incredibly talented pizzaiolo, recently crowned Australia's Most Sustainable Pizzaiolo for 2026. We loved chatting all things pizza and hearing Domenico's thoughts on what transforms a good pizza into a truly unforgettable one. He also shares the story behind his family business, Tempo, and the strong sense of community that makes it so special. It's an episode full of passion, tradition, and, of course, delicious conversation!

Ciao amici this is the 150th episode of the Italian Australian Podcast! We are so excited to have reached this milestone and we thank everyone who has supported us along the way, especially our family, Lukas’s wife Vanessa and my fiancé Daniel. We also thank each of our guests and all of you for listening.

Our guest this week is Nella, a proud Italian Australian who immigrated to Australia as a child with her parents and 7 siblings. Nella told us about her family story and we chatted about the admiration she holds for her parents. She told us about how whilst grieving following the death of her mother she chose to write The Golden Olive Tree in her honour, a deeply moving memoir of family and migration.
