Summary

Sean and Jamie are back from their magical Mexican vacation! We talk about why we love visiting Mexico, the legend of Trotsky's cookies, their Chiapas car calamity, La Chica Arana's summit with Corbyn and Amlo, a visit to Zapatista territory, Sean's run-in with a caravan of internally-displaced indigenous Mexicans, and, of course, doing acid on the beach.
