Searching for the Kumquat Convoy: Hanoi Tet Prep & The "Mara Lago" Face

We went deep into the Tứ Liên district of Hanoi to find the legendary "Kumquat Convoy"—the massive movement of holiday trees that signals the start of Tet (Lunar New Year). While the streets were unexpectedly quiet (turns out, the "convoy" is more of a daytime ballet!), the ramble took us through working-class neighborhoods, past hidden ceramic shops, and eventually to a streetside eatery for some "mystery meat" that sparked a massive debate: Was it beef, or was it buffalo? In this episode: The "Gate" Mystery: Why do these Hanoi neighborhoods have gates on the map but not in real life? Kumquat Economics: Discussing the status symbol of the tree and the "buying of luck." The Mara Lago Special: Scott and Erica weigh in on the latest celebrity news and "subscription citizenship." Lifestyles of the Rich & Famous: A nostalgic (and slightly dark) look back at Robin Leech and the 80s era of wealth. The Beef/Buffalo Verdict: Our final meal in the Historic District and the struggle of Vietnamese translation. The Urban Ramblers: Off Topic, On Foot.
