My First 24 Hours in Mexico: A Story From the Bowery Poetry Club

This episode is a story I performed at the Bowery Poetry Club in New York City in 2014 about my first 24 hours in Mexico — a chaotic trip, a lot of bad decisions, and the moment travel stopped feeling theoretical and became real. While I’m away in Ireland, Bing Bong steps in as guest host.
