PRESSED IN MEXICO FOR A TATTOO | EP. 203 The Eight

from The Eight · host Fossie & Javiloso

Fossie’s back from Mexico with stories that’ll have you crying and questioning border patrol. From being “randomly” selected at the Cancun airport, to an unexpected debate about his Martin Luther King tattoo, and waking up to mystery Don Julio charges—this one’s packed! We also debate if Speedy Gonzales is an icon or offensive and call a real Mexican to settle it. Plus, real talk on resorts vs. local culture, ceviche paranoia, and trying to learn Spanish through telenovelas.0:01:25,Back From Mexico – First Impressions0:02:20,Random Security Check at Cancun Airport0:05:26,Driving to Playa del Carmen0:06:38,Fifth Avenue & Lucha Mask Shopping0:07:17,Restaurants Built Around Trees0:08:09,Outside the Resort – Trash & Culture0:13:28,Resort Life vs City Life in Mexico0:15:17,The MLK Tattoo Story0:16:26,Getting Pressed by a Stranger0:18:06,Positive Reactions from Other Guests0:21:24,Drinking and Blacking Out0:25:33,Missing Swim Trunks & Glasses0:28:10,Charged for Don Julio Shots0:29:18,Calling Out the Hater0:31:13,Fear of Raw Ceviche Shrimp0:34:10,Why Can't You Drink Water in Mexico?0:35:41,Trip to Xcaret Park & Cultural Show0:38:34,Speedy Gonzales Debate0:42:05,Calling a Mexican Friend to Settle It0:44:00,Mexican Restaurant Review – El Fogon0:47:05,Talking Tacos & Tacos Lopez Comparison0:50:08,Learning Spanish Through Media0:53:08,Encountering a Subtle Racist at Work0:59:13,Real Mexico vs Tourist Mexico1:00:04,Outro – We're Back Every Wednesday
