The king of the gringos has arrived in Brazil and has some thoughts.

In Episode #442 of 'Meanderings', Juan & I discuss: why you can't catch up on sleep, skipping 3 months worth of stressful non-communication, girls picking me up with their dogs, why prices are uniform across Australia, the dystopian Judge Dredd apartments of São Paulo, the kind (albeit bald) people I've encountered and why I'm attracted to disabled people.

Huge thanks to McIntosh and Oscar Merry for supporting the show. We really appreciate your contribution!
