Where they Fear to Tread: North Sentinel Island and Xibalba!
This week's episode is Where they Fear to Thread where we look into places off the beaten track... and for good reason! Zofia dives deep into ancient cave systems of Cobán, Guatemala, the location of none other than the Mayan underworld of Xibalba. Liam gives the history of North Sentinel Island in the Indian Ocean where trespassers are likely to be peppered with a few arrows. Tangents include: The Descent, the multiple uses of Himalayan pink salt, everyone has dog heads, say no to over-foraging.
