Where Myth Meets Economic Crisis! | Anthony Bourdain Parts Unknown | Season 7 Episode 1

Explore the Greek island of Naxos in the heart of the Cyclades with Anthony Bourdain, where ancient mythology, family-run vineyards, and a slower island rhythm meet the harsh realities of Greece’s financial crisis. Filmed around 2015 during the height of the Greek debt crisis, this travel/documentary-style episode follows Anthony as he journeys across the island, meeting fishermen, farmers, a bartender, a dive instructor, and a theatrical political group known as "the Stray Dogs."" Along the way, he immerses himself in traditional island life, sharing ouzo and raki, fresh seafood, pork and lamb feasts, and local wine tastings, while also uncovering deeper conversations about unemployment, EU relations, austerity, and the impact of tourism on island survival. From wreck diving off Amorgos to mountain village gatherings and honest discussions about politics and the future, this episode blends food, myth, culture, and raw human stories under the Aegean sun.
