Update
Added 2024-03-30 12:17:58 +0000 UTCDear Patrons,
This week's video is a bit delayed because Evan has spent the last four days detained by the Central Intelligence Division of Lebanon on suspicion of being an Israeli spy. He has somehow managed to talk his way out of it, but it has been rather disruptive.
We'll get back to our final video from the Marshalls in a few days when he is resettled.
Love to you all,
Evan and Kata

Omg it's not a joke? Wow. My best to you both.

2024-03-31 03:56:06 +0000 UTCIt was stressful but he's okay. As for me, I already left when it happened. So I was just nervous that I couldn't get in touch with him all day... I'm sure we'll do a detailed video on this eventually.

2024-03-30 18:25:36 +0000 UTCI have to wonder how much PTSD Evan has as a result of the various violent or terrifying encounters he’s had over the years of this series. Not to mention Kata and various camera people. Take care, folks, you’re doing important work.

2024-03-30 15:58:55 +0000 UTCYeah, after all this time, all these stories of beautiful places that thrived in spite of past dictatorships, impoverished people choosing happiness in spite of living in open air prisons, and stories of growth despite war crimes, yes, Evan is an Israeli spy. Glad you got out of it there, Evan. Take a few days.

2024-03-30 13:07:12 +0000 UTCGlad to hear Evan is safe. Enjoyed the Ebeye episides. I visited there 50+ years ago, and it was bad then, too. Beautiful lagoon, though.

2024-03-30 12:45:17 +0000 UTCI really want to say something more than "I'm happy you're safe" but I'm so confounded by this update I just can't think of more appropriate words. So... I'm glad Evan is safe.
