Wow. Just wow. You’re most anti-American broadcast yet. We learn about Francis’ attempt to obtain a foreign, alien, passport and listen to Mark’s casual, almost incidental, dismissal of the greatest of canyons, the American Grand Canyon. No way in hell does Mexico have a better canyon than us.

That (anti-American) Neil, is most probably the reason why WRI is so appreciated abroad, followed by couple of thousands of devoted fans who usually listen to the show on that coffee train to Maribor and then discuss it on the way back, emboldened by expensive cup of weasel coffee they had in famous Kavarna Astoria.
Trieste/Italy is not just yet inhabited by aliens; civilization that live there at this time of year is called European (hominoids family). Out of regard for the truth, we must acknowledge quite a large Senegal and Chinese community too, so Francis will probably have a chance to choose from wide diapason of passports and most likely even buy it for a low price right there on the street.
And, we can admit great views to Grand Canyon, but it has such a plain name; so even if you are not going to visit Austrian Tscheppaschlucht Canyon because of your national consciousness, at least try to say it out loud, it ll do some good to your facial muscles.
