We talk about some news stories and ideas for future show topics. Then we go off on a tangent and discuss Milton's crappy computer. This is a longer-than-usual episode, and for some reason the audio gets a bit crackly after 43 minutes. Sorry about that.

Milton shaved off his beard! Besides feedback, we talk about Netflix in Brazil, the adorable Capivari currency, and people who can't tell time. Also, Brazil is one of the eight most complicated countries to visit.

Highlights from Simone and Kinsey's Second Annual Road Trip in the US.

I know I put in quite a lot of Disney parade footage, but I really didn't have much other video from that trip.

We talk about English teaching in Brazil, and then we argue about race.

I'm so late getting this posted that it's a bit out of date. I'm no longer preparing for a trip to the US but have actually been there and back. Still, the feedback is relevant.

We chat with listener Brandon in what is the longest episode of Brazilianisms to date. We couldn't stop talking. The conversation was just that good.

Milton discusses soccer in Brazil, and then we debate whether or not the traffic in Belo Horizonte has gotten worse over the years.

I have a short conversation with listener Mark at Dragon*Con.

We cover a variety of topics and do a bit more feedback.
