In this episode we banter about Gustavo’s summer adventures in New Mexico (Santa Fe and Chimayó); then we talk about El Camino de Santiago (The Way of St. James) a brief history on how it got started, a side note on a Marian apparition by the Ebro river, a few different routes you can walk, minimum requirement for completing the camino and two movie recommendations about this topic. 

Correction: On 19:25 Walther said that St. James died around Compostela, this is not correct as the Acts of the Apostles says St. James died by the sword in Jerusalem at the hand of Herod Agrippa.
