Buckle up for a rolling snapshot of real life: we pressed record in a San Francisco car with friends Ellie and Emmeline, plus Papa chiming in, and let the chaos do the steering. What came out is a fast, funny, and oddly tender ride filled with kid logic, family teasing, and those blink‑and‑you‑miss‑them moments that only happen when no one is trying too hard.

The car turns into a clubhouse stacked with tablets, squishmallows, and Geometry Dash obsession. Levels get rattled off like a setlist, a Rubik’s cube meets its match, and the joy of being the expert shines through.

We get delightfully meta as Yeshe dredges up an old podcast name and half‑remembered intro, turning family audio history into folklore. There’s a surreal detour through a “Big Mac crystal” for Minecraft and a cheeky riff on K‑pop star power. Throughout, the car hums with laughter, misquotes, mock ads, and the easy affection of people who know each other well enough to be silly together. No heavy edits, no script—just a live, lo‑fi time capsule that preserves the day the way it felt.

We close with a quick reality check—some things true, some not—and a warm holiday wish as the recording finally sees daylight after a patient wait. If you love candid family moments, road‑trip banter, and the way kids turn everyday life into a comedy sketch, this one’s for you. Tap play, ride along, and tell us your favourite moment.

Lago de Atitlán (Lake Atitlán) is probably the most famous part of the beautiful Central American country called Guatemala. It’s a crater lake surrounded by volcanoes, and tended by many Mayan cultures over thousands of years. Come with me as we visit some Mayan friends at the incredible Instituto Mesoamericano de Permacultura, or IMAP (the Mesoamerican Permaculture Institute), lakeside near San Lucas Tolimán. It’s a great story of regeneration.

And what was already a big adventure, unexpectedly became an even bigger one! You’ll hear papa with me in this one too. And you can join the whole family on a full tour of IMAP on his podcast, in both Spanish and English (with photos).

You can see my photographic journal of our whole journey in the Americas on my website, Yeshe Images.

Yeshe was still in Savanna, Georgia, when the devastating category 4 Hurricane Helene struck the US on the 26th of September. What started as Yeshe recording how incrediblethe rain was, early in the day, became a live take on his first experience of a hurricane. Which got a bit scary as the warning sirens started wailing into the night.

This episode is dedicated to everyone affected by thedevastation of Hurricane Helene. To support those still in need and recovering, papa's friends at Agrarian Trust sent this list to us - ⁠https://www.agrariantrust.org/hurricane-helene/⁠

Sadly, there was widespread damage and power outages around where we were, and so much more damage was to come, right into the mountains of North Carolina. The hurricane travelled 100 miles inland before even being downgraded to a tropical storm.
