On this episode: Friend of the show Tunisia Barnes, a Senior Policy Analyst from the Ministry of Youth, Sports & Heritage in the Cayman Islands stops by.

The conversation leans into Cayman culture, East End stories, family connections, local history, fishing tales, food talk, & plenty of back-and-forth about whether Chris can really claim East End.

Tunisia also shares insight into the work being done to preserve Cayman’s culture & heritage, from historic landmarks & oral history to museums, community initiatives, & creating more opportunities for younger generations to connect with the stories that helped shape the Cayman Islands.

Of course, things quickly get sidetracked with stories about conch, lobster, moray eels, barracudas, turtle shells, old family ties, and the revelation that Chris and Tunisia are actually related.

It’s a funny, culture-heavy episode with plenty of local references, strong opinions, & classic TLUP energy.
