    ¡Feliz Año Huevo!

    Happy New Year! Superfan Ed C. from Florida wrote in a few days ago to see if his list of Cuban New Year’s Eve traditions matched up with Rita’s. Black-eyed peas? Resolutions? Gunfire? Not for our favorite 92 year old Cuban mom! Find out what Rita did or does to celebrate New Year’s Eve in this special episode. We eventually get around to talking politics but not before you learn all sorts of family- and Cuba New Year's Eve weirdness from Rita and Jorge.

    Wrong DeSantis

    Wrong DeSantis

    It's gotten to the point where Florida's Governor deserves nothing more than to return to governing his state back in to the ground or toward new heights of Christian (in name only) Glory (depending on your political or personal persuasion. Funders backing out, PAC CEO's backing down (i.e. resigning), arguments among what remains of his campaign staff, and, well, stupid looking cowboy boots. The guy can't catch a break like he can't catch fire - on the campaign trial, and, possibly, as life in general. He's come across as so stiff and un-relatable that he simultaneously makes a a solid case for the downsides of robotics and the upsides of AI. Rita and I aren't sure what to do with the guy anymore - Pity? Deride? We are sure, however, that he seems to be fading fast in Nikki Haley's wake. Could it have happened to a nicer guy? Oh, wait, it did already (see: Asa Hutchinson or Dougie Fresh Burgum). All of that said, and in the words of a late 90's one-hit wonder, "you get what you give," Ron. Here's your episode.

    Nikki Haley: Trick, Pick or Dick?

    Nikki Haley: Trick, Pick or Dick?

    You decide. Nikki Haley's recent surge in the polls leading up to the first round of primaries has been impressive enough to (further) derail DeSantis while also revealing her to be notably deft in regards to finding ways to strike a balanced, nuanced tone on hot-button topics such as abortion and assorted idiocies that (misin)form Trump's MAGA base. Whatever else, she manages to do something that not even Trump can do: come across as sane, or, at least, reasonable. Will that get her the GOP nomination? Lots of Republican mega-donors are starting to think so. Let's hear what Rita thinks about Ajit and Raj's daughter, Nimarata.

    But Those Pecs! RFK Jr. Quixotic Erotic

    But Those Pecs! RFK Jr. Quixotic Erotic

    Conspiracy theorist? Anti-Vaxxer? Crackpot? Embarrassment? Presidential candidate Robert F. Kennedy Jr. has been called all that and more - by the mainstream media and members of his family. He's also been called a supremely gifted litigator, environmental lawyer and defender of our nation's natural resources, waterways and citizens impacted by greedy, unconscionable corporate polluters. His campaign could best be described as quixotic. But he poses a threat -- to greedy corporations, the pharmaceutical industry, the banking system, Joe Biden and his Democratic Party.

    Listen as Rita and Jorge discuss the man, the campaign, and, of course, RFK Jr's chiseled body.

    Vivek Ramaswamy, Meet My Mami!

    Vivek Ramaswamy, Meet My Mami!

    BioTech Billionaire. Entrepreneur. Trump cheerleader-apologist and smooth-talking GOP Presidential candidate who's star has begun shining more brightly along the winding road to the primaries. Whatever else, you have to admire his speaking abilities and, dare we say, verve. Rita says he is to be feared. Jorge calls b******t. What say you? Give this episode a listen and let us know!

    The 2024 Presidential Erection

    The 2024 Presidential Erection

    Given the growing number of octogenarian politicians in the U.S., the two frontrunners in the 2024 Presidential election being foremost, we're not sure what kind of erection can be achieved, so we're likely better off settling for an election. Season 3 starts off with Rita surveying the current state of the Democratic party, Cuba's mild obsession with FDR (and old-school Democrats), before getting in to the first GOP debate, abortion policy, term limits and the lamentable loss of Francis Suarez to our Season 3 agenda or theme: discussing each candidate so you don't have to (not yet, anyway).

    This episode is brought to you by The Cuban Cowboys' song, 'The Check's in the Mail', available for streaming everywhere.
