Customer Reviews
I love him
I really enjoy this podcast. He feels like a true homie, ready to share his thoughts and feelings. When I get lonely I put on an episode and usually am laughing within the first 2 minute. Witty and cute, be mine!
Short, sweet, and honest
El Pochcast is one of those gems: the host is direct, honest, and kind. He’s not in love with his own voice, so it’s concise- you can listen to most shows during a short drive or ride on the bus. A different perspective without yelling or hate. He views the world with a quiet, smiling through the pain bemusement familiar to those of us with a similar family background.
¡El Pochcast POR VIDA!
Good stuff
Just listened to the ep after Uvalde and had to drop a comment. Feels good to hear someone who sounds like my friends back home and gives me hope for the future of Texas and Tejanos.
