Cool Stuff Jimmy Gets From Mexico!

In this week's episode I respond to some feedback from Episode 3 and discuss a few aspects of how the current Mexican drug wars are affecting artisans, some plans to bring their items to market, and a little bit about my motivations to do what I can.

A blown head gasket forced me to turn around and head back home.

Welcome back!
