I would like to strongly endorse the Omega cold press juicer. I’ve had one for about 15 years and it’s been fantastic. I think we paid about $300 for it? Easy to use and cleanup. Everything is dishwasher safe. My only negative comment would be that you do have to actively manage the pulp situation as it juices. But the juice! So good!

Gotta get Dave on Doughboys to review Denny’s

What a delightful listen. Great to have y'all back stateside for now 🥞

I’ve only been a Patreon since the start of the trip so I’d love for the expat files to continue in what ever form it takes. It’s been a fantastic journey of growth and discovery that’s been fascinating to be a fly on the wall, even if that wall was from the sewer house. Now Joy can travel I can’t wait to see all the different adventures you guys get up to. We also need updates on getting more pork floss and how amazing the first bite was 🤣

So now that we’ve heard Dave’s Denny’s and Costco stories, I wanna hear about Joy digging into an al pastor street taco with onion lime cilantro salsa verde

Oh my god you cracked it : the Google Reviews are SO high in Portugal and now I get why.

David I think you're spot on about the implications of the word expat vs immigrant. Expat definitely centers the "leaving America" part of the experience, and obfuscates the challenges of adapting to a foreign culture/society. I though that was a worthwhile & interesting topic for you guys to dig into! I also wanted to chime in and say, in my opinion, expat is a uniquely American term, hence the "patriot" part of the etymology. I've only ever heard Americans refer to themselves as expats. I don't think an English person immigrating to the US would call themself an expat, for example.
