This week, we’re breaking bread in every sense of the phrase. First, beloved actor Tony Shalhoub joins us to talk about his new CNN series, Breaking Bread , where he travels the world to explore the meaning of bread and how it connects us across cultures and tables. Growing up in a large Lebanese American family in Wisconsin, Tony shares memories of food as a bridge between worlds, from kibbeh and hummus to bratwurst and grilled cheese. Then, we meet Maureen Abood, author of Lebanese Baking , who brings us into the heart of the Lebanese kitchen with recipes and stories that honor tradition and community. She leaves us with her recipe for Za’atar Manakeesh , a beloved flatbread that captures the heart of Lebanese baking: simple, fragrant, and made to share.

Sandy Maxx to share a sneak peek of this Sunday’s episode of CNN’s Breaking Bread, featuring Tony Shalhoub as he returns to his Wisconsin roots. From heartfelt family moments and his love for the Packers to meeting his hero LeRoy Butler and celebrating Wisconsin cheese traditions, this preview captures the warmth, pride, and flavor of Shalhoub’s home state. Tune in for clips, behind-the-scenes insights, and a taste of what makes Wisconsin—and Tony—so special.

Send us Fan Mail In this episode of The Introverted Obelisk , we slip on our ghost viewer glasses and stumble through the cobweb-covered corridors of William Castle’s 1960 spookfest 13 Ghosts —not to be confused with the blood-slicked, glass-walled 2001 remake that somehow starred both Tony Shalhoub and a jug of ectoplasmic rage. We follow the ill-fated Zorba family, who inherit a haunted mansion from a dead uncle with a ghost collection hobby and no sense of boundaries. There’s a Ouija board, a witchy housekeeper played by none other than Margaret Hamilton (yes, that Margaret Hamilton), and a child who is entirely too enthusiastic about the undead. We’ll explore Castle’s wild gimmick, “Illusion-O,” which asked audiences to peer into colored filters to “see” or “not see” the ghosts—because nothing enhances terror like 3D cardboard glasses. Along the way, we’ll dissect the film’s charmingly bizarre tone, its ghost designs that look like haunted bedsheets with union benefits, and its oddball commentary on family, greed, and the supernatural. So grab your spirit viewers and prepare for a low-budget haunting with all the sincerity of a Scooby-Doo episode and none of the meddling kids. It’s time to get spectral with 13 Ghosts —the original one. Support the show
