Oh bother. I fixed the site and the RSS feed, but it is a huge problem to fix the show itself so that will probably stay wrong.

I enjoyed this podcast. A few corrections about names and pronunciation. (My mom is from Colombia so I know this stuff)
As another comment says, it’s Colombia, not Columbia.
Cartagena is not pronounced with the Ñ, as you were doing on the Podcast. A lot of Americans like to say it like that for some reason.
Finally, it is San Andres, not San Andreas.
Regards.
