Before they get into protests, Rob and Lis share some big family news. Then Lis tells how two protesters threw pumpkin soup at the Mona Lisa, but does that kind of protest still work? She looks back on a protest she joined at the British Museum, which Rob, who was there, says got almost no attention. And a camp in a Bogotá park tests how long public sympathy can last.
