My Mate Murphy is a podcast about a fella who’s been to over 110 countries — including a few you’ve never heard of. Each week we dive into the history and politics of one place, then hear what Murphy got up to there — from naked couchsurfing to dodgy border crossings. He’s not writing a book, so I’m doing this instead — to get the stories out while we’re still laughing.

    Mexico - City

    This week we are off to Mexico city. Mexico is the 8th largest country in the world (don't fact check us on that) so it would be an injustice to try do it all in one episode. This we ramble through the streets of Mexico city and hopefully give listeners a good guide to what its like to visit. As always please do like share and comment. If you think there is a better way to do this, we are all ears.
