  2. La Sobremesa de un Mes....The Soul of Colombian Christmas

    DEC 14

    La Sobremesa de un Mes....The Soul of Colombian Christmas

    What happens when an entire culture transforms the holiday season into one giant sobremesa—that beloved Latin tradition of lingering at the table long after the meal is over? In this episode, we explore why la Navidad colombiana is so much more than lights and gifts—it's a month-long ritual that begins with millions of candles illuminating the streets on el Día de las Velitas (December 7th) and builds through nine consecutive nights of family gatherings called las novenas navideñas. We discover how food functions as a map of regional identity: from tamales costeños served with tangy suero atoyac on the Caribbean coast, to the sacred national combination of natilla con buñuelos—crispy cheese fritters paired with a spiced, panela-sweetened custard that one source calls "una máquina del tiempo" (a time machine) straight back to childhood. We also unpack the fascinating negotiation between generations: the grandfather's spontaneous parranda vallenata with an accordion and a bottle scraped like a guacharaca, coexisting with the grandkids' Amazon gifts under a plastic tree. It's a dualidad cultural driven not by ideology, but by love. Can the smell of cinnamon and the sound of an improvised accordion preserve la memoria afectiva of a community in an increasingly digital world? Join us for this deep dive into a celebration where tradition doesn't break—it bends.
