In this episode, we (not T unfortunately) begin by previewing a few things we're looking forward to seeing unfold this year, a year already proving to be quite eventful. Austin highlights next month's elections in Ecuador and LeRoy similarly talks about the April general elections in Paraguay and the internal rumblings in the ubiquitous Colorado Party. The meat of the episode is the review of this weeks CELAC summit held in Buenos Aires.
