Podcast Title: Very Caliente Hosts: Pablo Alsina & Jennie López Summary Pablo sets the table up front: this one is heavy on faith, and everyone is welcome to listen. The day before recording, Jennie López was baptized as an adult, and it was her own kids who took her under the water. She takes us from a Catholic upbringing and years away from church to the non-denominational church her kids begged to go back to, a hard year leaving corporate for entrepreneurship, and the prayers she now says out loud with her husband every night. Pablo shares the mealtime prayers his family has kept for 50 years, plus a few nuggets for believers and non-believers alike. And when her daughter took her under, everything went blank.
