    PRIDE: Party, Protest, or Pure Desmadre? - EP # 27

    Holi holi Paletitas! This week we’re breaking down PRIDE—the good, the bad, and the corporate AF. Is it still about protest, or just puro party pa’ los cis white gays?  Tus comadres favoritas—César, José Richard aka Nalgona, y Ana Sheila—get into it with chisme, hot takes, and a whole lot of cariño for our queer community. From first Pride stories to Dyke March highlights, and even shouting out organizations like the Trans Latina Coalition, we’re asking: Have we lost our way… or are we still finding new ones? DICEN POR AHÍ: Pride is just gay desmadre on display. True or nah? Main convo: Pride memories, critiques, and hopes for the future of queerness. Mete o Saca: What are we letting go and what are we inviting in this Pride season? And yes, Pride can be a fiesta—but it’s also resistencia. And we’re here for both! Listen now on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.Tell us in the comments: ¿Qué significa PRIDE pa’ ti? Y recuerden que la vida es más sabrosa con nosotras porque somos, LAS PALETERAS! —--------------------- Las Paleteras is a spicy, energetic, and mindful podcast hosted by Los Angeles based queer Latinx artists Cesar Camacho, Ana Sheila, and Jose Richard Aviles alias Nalgona.

    Let’s Talk about Sex- EP # 26

    ¿Quién nos enseñó sobre sexo queer? (Spoiler: casi nadie.) In this juicy episode, tus comadres favoritas—César, José Richard aka Nalgona, y Ana Sheila—dive into all the stuff we should’ve learned but had to figure out en las calles, en el internet, o en el chisme. We unpack where we learned about sex (if at all), the role of queer media in our sexual coming-of-age, and what we’ve taught—or wish we’d been taught—about consent, pleasure, hygiene, and queerness. Plus: In our Mete o Saca segment, we share what we’re letting go and what we’re inviting in. So grab your paleta and tell us: ¿qué estás metiendo o sacando tú? Raw, real, and picante como tamarindo con chamoy—this one’s for every paletita who’s still unlearning shame and reclaiming pleasure. —--------------------- Las Paleteras is a spicy, energetic, and mindful podcast hosted by Los Angeles based queer Latinx artists Cesar Camacho, Ana Sheila, and Jose Richard Aviles alias Nalgona.

    Internalized Queerphobia - EP # 22

    This week on Las Paleteras, we’re diving into something many queer folks know all too well—internalized queerphobia. That sneaky inner voice shaped by years of societal shame, machismo, religious guilt, and the pressure to “blend in.” But don’t worry, como siempre, we get into it con cariño… y un poquito de desmadre! Joining us is the brilliant Luis Cornejo (@luis_thee_lmft) — Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, Certified Sex Therapist, and founder of PsychoSocial Therapy. Luis brings their insight as a healer and advocate to unpack the layers of internalized queerphobia, from childhood survival instincts to dating dynamics and the pain of gender nonconformity rejection within our own communities. Plus: — Chismecito callejero in our Dicen Por Ahí segment — Honest reflections on our first brushes with self-shame — A powerful convo about healing, grace, and letting go — Our signature Mete o Saca to close things out with intention What are YOU inviting in? What are YOU letting go? Let us know in the comments!Subscribe, share, and tag your comadres. Y recuerden que la vida es más sabrosa con nosotras porque somos.. LAS PALETERAS!!
