Given the current climate here in Occupied America, we thought it would be worth taking a look at the Chicano Moratorium march of August 29, 1970. The event serves as a good example of how we organized as a community to speak out against an unjust war and the price our people paid fighting in it. This episode was originally released as a Premium (paid only) episode, but we wanted to give everyone a chance to check out our discussion. Enjoy!listener comments? Feedback?

As the sun slowly rose over the Rio Grande on September 15, 1891, Catarino Erasmo Garza stood on the Texas side of the border holding in his hands two objects that would come to define his life: a Winchester rifle and a revolutionary proclamation. For years Garza had fought the dictatorship of Porfirio Díaz through his many newspapers and publications. Now he announced that he was laying down the pen and taking up arms. In the opening lines of his manifesto, he declared:"The last of the independent journalists today abandons the pen to seize the sword in defense of the people's rights."His proclamation denounced the destruction of the free press, political murder, fraudulent elections, and the concentration of land and power, while calling for constitutional government, free trade, and land reform in Mexico. Nearly twenty years before Francisco Madero launched the movement that became the Mexican Revolution, Garza had already identified the grievances that would eventually bring down the Díaz regime.Today, Garza remains largely absent from popular memory. His name never appears alongside revolutionary icons like Emiliano Zapata, Pancho Villa, or Francisco Madero, despite the fact that he articulated many of the democratic demands later associated with the Mexican Revolution. This is a shame, because Garza was more than a revolutionary soldier. He was an influential journalist, an international activist, and the likely publisher of El Chicano, a Spanish-language newspaper in San Antonio that may represent the earliest known printed use of the word Chicano as a positive political identity.

Denver has plenty of barbershops. Zach Daniels is building something different. Zach joins Ryan to talk about bringing Hammer & Nails, an elevated men's grooming concept, to Denver's Belleview Station. Think haircuts, beard trims, shaves, manicures, pedicures, face and scalp treatments, drinks, oversized leather chairs, personal TVs, and noise-canceling headphones. Basically, self-care for guys who refuse to call it self-care. We're calling it maintenance. They get into why men will spend a small fortune maintaining trucks, golf clubs, watches, and skis while completely ignoring their own feet; why the traditional barbershop experience could use an upgrade; and how Hammer & Nails is building a membership model around making grooming an actual routine instead of something you remember to do once you start looking like a Civil War general. Zach also explains the Hammer & Nails membership model, including flexible monthly services, member upgrade days, services that roll over if you don't use them, and the ability to gift unused services. Plus, Ryan tells the story of nearly watching a man get eaten by a crocodile in the Yucatán, they invent "man spackle," discuss the emotional burden of overly chatty barbers, and brainstorm the ultimate Colorado grooming experience involving cold plunges, oxygen, compression boots, and an increasingly questionable number of wellness treatments. Somewhere in there, they also talk football, fly fishing, flannel, Tacomas, skiing, I-70 traffic, and Zach's gradual transformation from Alabama transplant into a full-fledged Coloradan. Hammer & Nails DTC is targeting a September 19 opening at Belleview Station, with founding memberships available ahead of opening. In this episode: Why Hammer & Nails says it's more than a barbershop Why men need "maintenance," not self-care Haircuts, beard trims, hand and foot care, and face/scalp treatments The membership model and why services roll over Creating consistency when you don't always have the same barber Why your barber probably doesn't need to tell you about his divorce The rise of men taking grooming more seriously Building a family-run business in Denver Alabama football vs. Colorado football Becoming a Coloradan one flannel shirt and Tacoma at a time Ryan's extremely close encounter with a Yucatán crocodile Man spackle, orbital sanders, and other business ideas nobody requested Keep up with what's happening around Denver: RealGoodDenver.com Subscribe to the Real Good Denver newsletter for Denver news, events, food, culture, local businesses, and more.

Potřeba životního restartu ji přiměla k impulzivnímu kroku. Když se Aneta Benediktová, pracující jako holistická terapeutka, jednoho dne probudila, cítila, že potřebuje odjet do Latinské Ameriky. Nejprve do Peru a pak do Mexika. Přestože jí tehdy bylo 57 let a nevládla španělštinou, několikatýdenní výprava přes polovinu světa ji zasáhla natolik, že se po návratu do Česka sbalila a odstěhovala se na Yucatán. Ten od roku 2023 nazývá svým domovem. Co mezi potomky Mayů našla, vypráví Benediktová v nové epizodě podcastu Slepá mapa.

We Watched a White Woman "Channel" Quetzalcoatl... So You Don't Have ToCan someone really channel Quetzalcoatl? Or is it just another example of New Age spirituality borrowing from Indigenous traditions without understanding them?In this special bonus episode of Tales From Aztlantis, Kurly Tlapoyawa and Ruben Arellano Tlakatekatl sit down together in the same room for a live reaction to one of the strangest DVDs they've ever encountered: Quetzalcoatl Speaks, a 2010 presentation featuring self-described psychic and trance channeler Cindy Riggs, who claims to allow Quetzalcoatl to speak through her body.The episode begins after Ruben's visit to New Mexico, where the hosts spend the day exploring Petroglyph National Monument before Kurly talks about stumbling across the DVD at a free table outside a bookstore. Intrigued by the bizarre premise, they decide to watch it together with open minds, hoping for an interesting discussion of Mesoamerican philosophy, spirituality, or history. Instead, they find themselves witnessing nearly two hours of rambling New Age metaphysics, internet metaphors, energy fields, and vague spiritual jargon that bears little resemblance to anything found in Nahua sources.As the film unfolds, Cindy Riggs recounts her spiritual journey, claiming that an Aztec spirit guide named "Can" prepared her over decades to become a vessel for Quetzalcoatl. She describes psychic development, Reiki, hypnosis, past-life regression, remote viewing, energy healing, and eventually trance channeling before finally introducing the night's guest: Quetzalcoatl himself. The hosts examine each of these claims while comparing them to what is actually known about Nahua traditions and Indigenous spirituality.Once the "channeling" begins, however, the promised appearance of Quetzalcoatl quickly turns into a stream of generic New Age advice involving chakras, energy frequencies, internet service providers, multidimensional consciousness, extraterrestrials, and raising one's vibrational frequency. Rather than offering insights rooted in Nahua philosophy, language, or ceremony, the supposed Quetzalcoatl delivers what Kurly and Ruben describe as little more than motivational self-help mixed with technological metaphors.Throughout the commentary, the hosts balance humor with serious criticism. They discuss how Indigenous figures like Quetzalcoatl are frequently appropriated by modern spiritual movements, often stripped of their historical and cultural context in favor of universalized New Age beliefs. They also explore why so many sincere people are drawn to these movements, and how convincing performances can sometimes overshadow genuine scholarship and authentic Indigenous traditions.The conversation eventually broadens into a discussion of Western occultism, Helena Blavatsky, Aleister Crowley, Jack Parsons, L. Ron Hubbard, psychedelic experimentation, Theosophy, and how some of these ideas eventually found their way into modern interpretations of Mexicayotl. While acknowledging that these topics deserve deeper research, Kurly and Ruben identify fascinating historical connections worth exploring in future episodes.Equal parts comedy, media criticism, and cultural commentary, this episode asks an important question: What happens when Indigenous traditions become detached from the people who created them?Topics DiscussedReviewing Quetzalcoatl Speaks (2010)Claims of trance channeling QuetzalcoatlNew Age spirituality and Indigenous appropriationPsychic mediums, Reiki, hypnosis, and energy healingQuetzalcoatl versus modern spiritual reinterpretationsWhy vague spiritual language can sound profoundThe commercialization of Indigenous traditionsTheosophy and Helena BlavatskyAleister Crowley and Western occultismJack Parsons, L. Ron Hubbard, and esoteric movementsPsychedelics, occultism, and historical speculationWhy historical context matters when discussing Nahua traditionsMemorable MomentsDiscovering the DVD on a free table outside a bookstoreWaiting nearly twenty minutes for Quetzalcoatl to finally "arrive"The hosts' disbelief when the ancient Feathered Serpent begins talking about internet service providersWondering why Quetzalcoatl never corrects the repeated mispronunciation of his own nameComparing the presentation to an infomercial, motivational seminar, and software terms and conditionsImagining what an actual Nahua philosophical discourse from Quetzalcoatl might have sounded like insteadFavorite Quotes"We tried to keep an open mind.""I would have been more impressed if he had just started speaking Classical Nahuatl.""What the hell are you talking about?""People will pay for anything.""The truth is like medicine. It doesn't always taste good, but it is always good for you."Connect With Tales From AztlantisIf you enjoyed this episode, subscribe to Tales From Aztlantis, leave a review, and share it with someone interested in Mesoamerican history, archaeology, Indigenous philosophy, and exposing pseudohistorical claims.Listen wherever you get your podcasts.listener comments?

Cerramos la cuarta temporada de No se dice provincia con un recorrido por todas las voces que nos acompañaron: desde Raíchali y su cobertura sonora de la Sierra Tarahumara, hasta el periodismo independiente sobre migración en Tapachula, la creación de contenido de Carla Escoffié en Yucatán, las historias documentales de Periodismo de lo posible, la lucha antirracista de Afrochingonas, la memoria de Radio Teocelo, la descentralización de Radio UDG y la cercanía de El reportero de confianza con su audiencia. Paty de Obeso y Sergio Campos conversan sobre lo que esta temporada nos dejó: por qué entender los distintos tipos de medios en México importa, y por qué comunicar desde lo local sigue siendo un acto necesario frente al centralismo.

Felicidades pues Ixi'm justo acaba de recibir una estrella Michelin , así como una estrella verde. Hoy, cada plato que crea honra el maíz, los recados, los ingredientes, la tierra y a las comunidades que preservan su identidad. Su historia demuestra que cambiar de rumbo no es empezar de cero, sino comenzar desde lo que verdaderamente somos. Bienvenidos a esta travesía sobre comida transformada en memorias, de propósito y el poder de transformar la tradición en un legado vivo Bienvenido Chef Luis Ronzon
What happens when Indigenous DNA becomes the next frontier of resource extraction? In part two of this episode of Tales from Aztlantis, Kurly Tlapoyawa and Ruben Arellano Tlakatekatl are joined once again by Joe Yracheta, an Amerindigenous scientist of Purépecha and Rarámuri heritage and a leader with the Native BioData Consortium. Together, they explore one of the most pressing—and least discussed—issues facing Indigenous communities today: the fight for Indigenous data sovereignty.Joe explains how genetic information, biological samples, medicinal plants, and even traditional agricultural knowledge have become valuable commodities in the global biotechnology economy. The conversation traces the long history of colonial extraction from Indigenous peoples, showing how today's race to collect biodata follows the same patterns that once drove the exploitation of land, labor, and natural resources.The discussion examines how universities, pharmaceutical companies, and governments collect and use Indigenous genetic data, often under the promise of improving public health, only for that information to later be commercialized or repurposed without meaningful community consent. Joe shares examples involving the Havasupai Tribe, the Amish, and Indigenous communities throughout the Americas, illustrating how existing legal and ethical frameworks frequently fail to protect Indigenous rights.Kurly and Ruben also explore the growing role of artificial intelligence, open-data policies, and scientific publishing in accelerating these challenges. They discuss why Indigenous communities are demanding greater control over their own biological resources, why "informed consent" is often insufficient, and how Indigenous-led institutions like the Native BioData Consortium are working to safeguard tribal data within Indigenous legal jurisdictions.The conversation broadens into larger questions about scientific ethics, profit-sharing, the commercialization of traditional crops such as cacao, mezcal, avocados, and corn, and the continuing legacy of colonialism in modern research. Rather than rejecting science, Joe argues for a model built on trust, transparency, and genuine collaboration that respects Indigenous sovereignty while producing stronger, more ethical research.This episode challenges listeners to rethink who owns biological knowledge, who benefits from scientific discovery, and what true Indigenous self-determination should look like in the age of genomics and AI.If you enjoy conversations that examine history, archaeology, science, and Indigenous perspectives through a critical lens, be sure to subscribe to Tales from Aztlantis, leave a review, and share this episode with others interested in the future of Indigenous rights and scientific ethics.listener comments?

We can decide to stay home, but even then, the wider world is always close to our skin. From global trade to ideas that travel across continents, the wider world is always woven into our modern life.Since when has this been the case?There is a modern story about globalisation — a story about telecommunications and aeroplanes and such — but this is the climax of a long process, not its beginning. To find the deeper roots of globalisation, we should turn our gaze to the medieval world, and specifically to events around the year 1000.Or so argues historian Valerie Hansen.In this episode, we discuss the various curious developments around the year 1000 that began to connect the world into an interconnected web. From Viking explorers to the Silk Roads in Africa, Hansen offers many fascinating windows into the surprising connections that were already beginning to link the medieval world together. We also discuss the spread of inventions and world religions, as well as the deeper forces that Hansen thinks have long been driving world history.Enjoy!FACT-CHECKINGNo errors have been detected in this conversation.

Did the Aztecs have a concept of virtue? In this episode, we dive into a lively scholarly debate over the Nawatl phrase kwalli and yektli ("good" and "right") and whether it can properly be translated as "virtue." Examining colonial dictionaries, the Florentine Codex, the Wewetlahtolli, and the work of scholars from the sixteenth century to today, we explore the evidence for a distinctly Nawa ethical tradition. Along the way, we discuss the challenges of translating Indigenous philosophies and why understanding concepts, not just individual words, is essential to appreciating Nawatl thought.Sources:Anderson, Arthur J.

How does a region build a semiconductor and electronics workforce from the ground up? In this episode of the Altium OnTrack Podcast, host Zach Peterson sits down with Nasska Medrano, Global Program Manager at Altium Education, and Professor Johan Estrada of the Autonomous University of Yucatán (UADY) to unpack the Mayan-on-Chip initiative—a collaborative workforce development program training highly skilled talent in electronics, embedded systems, and semiconductors in southeastern Mexico. They cover how the first cohort exceeded expectations, why coordinated effort among academia, industry, and government is essential, and how Mexico's national semiconductor plan is reshaping engineering education.
We're joined by Captain Jacob Meier, a guide whose fly fishing career has taken him from the flats of Florida to the rivers of Alaska, the marshes of Louisiana, the jungles of South America, and the fisheries of Baja and beyond. Jacob grew up fishing Tampa Bay and neighborhood ponds before serving six years in the U.S. Army. After his military service, he turned his passion into a profession and has since guided across some of the most diverse fisheries in North America and the Caribbean. Along the way, he's built a reputation as an angler who is always eager to explore new water and help others experience incredible fishing destinations. In this episode, we dive into Jacob's journey from Florida kid to world-traveling guide, the lessons he's learned from guiding in wildly different environments, and the adventures that have shaped his career. We also talk about Baja, Alaska, Puerto Rico, jungle fishing in Brazil and Colombia, DIY adventures in Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula, and why the pursuit of new experiences keeps him moving. Whether you're dreaming about your next fishing trip, curious about life as a professional guide, or simply enjoy hearing stories from anglers who have dedicated their lives to the water, this is an episode you won't want to miss.

Un grupo de arqueólogos en México ha descubierto recientemente una antigua ciudad maya oculta durante siglos. La han bautizado Minanbé, que quiere decir "no hay camino", después de tener que atravesar decenas de kilómetros de selva para encontrarla. Se trata de un enclave con más de 14 edificios religiosos que hablan de una posible ciudad importante en el tránsito entre costas en la península del Yucatán al sur del país. Los rastros arqueológicos indican que pudo funcionar entre el 600 y el 900 d.c.Escuchar audio
Broadcast from KSQD, Santa Cruz on 7-09-2026: Researchers refined a technique to reverse skin cell aging by about 30 years while preserving cellular identity. Exposing adult fibroblasts to Yamanaka factors—stopping before full reversion to pluripotent stem cells,reset the epigenetic clock and gene expression patterns to resemble much younger cells. The rejuvenated fibroblasts produced significantly more collagen, migrated faster to close artificial wounds, and showed reversal of gene expression patterns associated with Alzheimer's and cataracts. Since long-term epidemiologic data doesn't yet exist, Dr. Dawn follows up on last week's vaping question by exploring cancer mechanisms. Vaping aerosols impair DNA repair fidelity while triggering IL-6, IL-8, and TNF-alpha secretion. Nicotine-derived nitrosamines, reactive carbonyls (formaldehyde, acetaldehyde, acrolein) are generated when propylene glycol and vegetable glycerin are heated. Upregulated cytochrome P450 enzymes convert precarcinogens like benzopyrene into carcinogens. Mice exposed for 54 weeks developed lung adenocarcinomas in 22% and precancerous bladder hyperplasia in 57%, with markers matching those show predict lung cancer years before diagnosis. The Mexican Biobank—which includes over 40,000 samples from all 31 Mexican states revealed dramatic regional variation in drug-metabolism genes driven by Indigenous ancestry. In Chiapas, nearly 40% of the population carries two copies of a CYP2D6 variant reducing fentanyl metabolism, versus just 10% in Sinaloa. The SLCO1B1 variant hindering statin metabolism is found in over 15% of Yucatán residents., where 8 million Mexicans take statins. Dr. Dawn discusses both the promise and potential dark side of population genetic testing, including UK plans to genotype all children at birth for inborn errors of metabolism. Dr. Dawn briefly revisits the recent Indian study showing conch-shell blowing reduces sleep apnea by 34%, comparing it to earlier didgeridoo research, both of which strengthen airway muscles through forced-blowing exercises. A caller from Capitola recovering from non-Hodgkin's lymphoma near the L5 nerve asks about Japanese Kampo medicine formulas (Goshajinkigan, Yokukansan) for post-treatment nerve pain. Dr. Dawn suggests the pain likely originates from scar tissue tethering the nerve, and recommends consulting the Oriental Medicine Doctor program at Five Branches in Santa Cruz where faculty can advise on herbal formulas that trace back thousands of years through cultural exchange between China and Japan. Dr. Dawn explains Lp(a):lipoprotein(a), a small protein string attached to LDL particles that promotes clumping and clotting, is a genetically-determined coronary artery disease and stroke risk factor invisible to standard lipid panels. Levels of 250 particles double coronary risk and 350 particles triple it. Less than 75 is normal. Two new pharmaceutical strategies are in development to reduce Lp(a) : antisense oligonucleotides (single-stranded RNA that recruits RNase H to cleave target mRNA) and small interfering RNA (double-stranded RNA that triggers destruction of matching mRNA). Pelacarsen, a monthly injection in Phase 3 trials, reduces Lp(a) by 80%. These gene-silencing platforms open therapeutic possibilities for previously undruggable orphan diseases. Vitamin K2 is produced in the gut microbiome. MK-4 is most common in humans. Dr. Dawn recommends MK7 for stabilizing coronary calcium plaques and directing calcium into bone. A study of hepatitis B and C patients found MK4 to be protective in hepatocellular carcinoma. HCC developed in 2 of 21 MK-4-treated patients versus 9 of 19 controls, with a risk ratio of 0.2. MK-4 activates protein kinase A in vitro, inhibits HCC invasiveness, and restores apoptosis signaling that cancer cells normally block. Dr. Dawn recommends a couple milligrams of MK-4 daily for anyone with cirrhosis or prior hepatitis B or C infection.
Aztec Philosophy, Ethics, and the Outward Path with Dr. Sebastian PurcellWhat if living a good life isn't about chasing happiness, but about building strong relationships and fulfilling your responsibilities to others?In this episode of Tales From Aztlantis, Kurly Tlapoyawa and Ruben Arellano Tlakatekatl sit down with philosopher Dr. Sebastian Purcell to discuss Aztec (Nahua) philosophy, ethics, language, and his groundbreaking books Discourses of the Elders and The Outward Path. Together they explore why Nahua philosophy deserves to stand alongside Greek, Indian, and Chinese philosophical traditions, and why many of its teachings remain surprisingly relevant today.Dr. Purcell shares the story of how he transitioned from computer science and mathematical logic into philosophy before discovering the rich intellectual tradition preserved in Classical Nahuatl texts. He explains the challenges of producing the first intentionally philosophical English translation of the Huehuetlahtolli and why translating philosophy requires different choices than translating historical documents.The conversation then turns to one of the central ideas in Nahua ethics: that living well is fundamentally a social endeavor. Rather than viewing ethics as an individual pursuit, the Nahuas understood human flourishing as something achieved through cooperation, mutual obligation, and healthy communities. Dr. Purcell contrasts this worldview with Aristotle, Confucius, Stoicism, and Buddhism, arguing that Nahua philosophy emphasizes an "outward path" that begins with our relationships before turning inward.Along the way, the discussion explores the meaning of concepts such as in ixtli in yollotl (face and heart), in kwalli in yektli (the good and the right), rootedness, centeredness, and the famous Nahua metaphor of the slippery earth. The hosts also discuss whether modern scholars sometimes underestimate the philosophical sophistication of Nahua texts by insisting on overly literal translations.The latter portion of the interview examines how to distinguish Indigenous teachings from later colonial Christian additions in the Huehuetlahtolli. Dr. Purcell proposes that passages emphasizing intrinsic reasons for acting well are more likely to preserve precolonial Nahua thought, while passages grounded primarily in divine punishment often reflect later Christian influence.Finally, the conversation tackles one of the most debated subjects in Nahua studies: the controversial concept of Ometeotl, Miguel León-Portilla's influence on the field, and what current scholarship can and cannot confidently say about pre-Hispanic Nahua theology.Whether you're interested in philosophy, Mesoamerican history, Nahuatl language, archaeology, or Indigenous knowledge, this episode offers an engaging introduction to one of the world's richest philosophical traditions.Topics DiscussedDr. Sebastian Purcell's path from mathematics to philosophyTranslating the Huehuetlahtolli into EnglishWhy Nahua philosophy deserves recognition as philosophyEthics versus morality in Nahua thoughtThe social nature of virtue"The Outward Path" and why relationships matter more than individual happinessFace and heart (in ixtli in yollotl)The slippery earth and rootednessNahua concepts of virtue and the good lifeClassical Nahuatl and philosophical languageDecolonizing interpretations of Nahua textsSeparating Indigenous teachings from Christian interpolationMiguel León-Portilla, Ometeotl, and ongoing scholarly debatesBooks MentionedDiscourses of the Elders: The Aztec HuehuetlahtolliThe Outward Path: The Wisdom of the AztecsMemorable Quotes"Acting well is inherently a social activity, not an individual activity.""You're not really after happiness.

Family, friends, and listeners:We gather virtually at a momentous historical threshold. The United States is engulfed in the pageantry, corporate sponsorships, and national choreography of its Semiquincentennial—the 250th anniversary of the signing of the Declarationof Independence. Across the landscape, museum exhibitions are being mounted, monument plaques polished, and civic speeches drafted.We are being summoned, collectively, to step into a grand civic liturgy: tolook back upon 1776 with an unclouded eye of pride, to venerate the so-called “Founding Fathers,” and to reaffirm a singular narrative of unfolding democratic progress. But as citizens of a deeply fractured landscape, we must ask the question that always haunts the perimeter of the American bonfire: Who is this celebration for?Sources Primary Sources:William Apess, Eulogy on King Philip, ed.

How do you find out which animals a mosquito has been biting? You start by thinking like one. In this episode, biologist Elizabeth Linares Alcántara takes us to a public park in Mérida, Mexico, where she hunts blood-fed mosquitoes in their hiding spots and reads the DNA in their tiny abdomens to reveal who they have been feeding on, from humans and iguanas to feral cats and a neighbour's grazing goat.The result is a "blood feeding network" that helps anticipate outbreaks of dengue and other emerging diseases. Elizabeth also shares a finding that turns intuition on its head, and offers a preview of next year's WDA conference, hosted in her own backyard on the Yucatán Peninsula.LinksLearn more about Elizabeth's work on her ResearchGate profile.Check out more details about next year's WDA conference in Merida, about the Latin American WDA chapter and their student chapter.We'd love to hear from you ... share your thoughts, feedback and ideas.

Buy tickets for the live Conversations with Tyler recording with Craig Newmark at 92NY! Tyler calls Paul Gillingham's new book, Mexico: A 500-Year History, the single best introduction to the country's past—and one of the best nonfiction books of 2026. Paul brings both an outsider's eye and ground-level knowledge to Mexican history, having grown up in Cork — a place he'd argue gave him an instinctive feel for fierce local autonomy and land hunger —earning his doctorate on the Mexican Revolution under Alan Knight at Oxford, and doing his fieldwork in the pueblos of Guerrero. He and Tyler range across five centuries of Mexican history, from why Mexico held together after independence when every other post-colonial superstate collapsed, to why Yucatán is now one of the safest places on earth, what two leaders from Oaxaca tell us about Mexican politics, how Mexico avoided the military coups that plagued the rest of Latin America, what Cárdenas's land reform actually achieved versus what it promised, whether the ejido system held Mexico back, why Mexico worried too much about land and not enough about human capital, how Mexico's fertility rate fell below America's, why Guerrero has been violent for two centuries, why the new judicial reforms are a disaster, where to find the best food in Mexico and Manhattan, what a cache of illicit Mexican silver sitting on a ship in the English Channel has to do with his next book, and more.
