Brian works for an entrepreneurial guidance nonprofit and lives in Lima, in Peru. Paco is an actor and drama teacher living in Monterrey, in Mexico.
We find out about the incredible speed of the Peruvian response to Covid, and the ways in which Mexican businesses have been helping out the people most affected by the situation there. What are the advantages of a tactical dog? Which football teams don't mind seeing the season end? And just what are the secrets of the Happy Times philosophy? We learn that Peru has 4,000 kinds of potato and the challenges this presents in a Covid quarantine. Techno-dancing pallbearers and Spanish Freddie Mercury impersonators make an appearance.
The opening music is the Israeli song 'Shevet Ahim Veahot' performed from a balcony by a band in the city of Petah Tikvah to serenade a couple who had just got married in the courtyard of the apartment complex below.
