    season 2 ep 5 - 2019, boy bye!

    felices fiestas beybiisss! this is long one because you all know 2019 tried us all! this year was triggering, transformative and a whole ass mess. but not all was traumatic. we also had many diamonds along the way, like the start of this podcast, the launch of new projects and start of new relationships. and since it's the end of a decade, we cast back to 2009 to revisit our younger selves as teens, well at least for danyeli. please don't come for us and our music choices, taylor swift and lady gaga have a special place in our hearts. we also set sights on 2020 and the new adventures that await. 2020 will be year of action.  we also discuss the release of periódicos de ayer, danyeli's new book and get the exclusive first listen to "sin embargo" a beautiful song written by leonel salgado (undocubae's 18-year old nephew). catch our palabras del dia featuring our beloved toni morrison and two of our listeners (raquel and gabriela) who left us touching messages and reviews. to order danyeli's book, please visit her website  to listen to leonel's original song "sin embargo" visit his page   catch us in 2020 porque venimos con todo!

    season 1 finale con david, beibiii

    season one would not be complete without the presence of our favorite sagittarius, image consultant, queer and mental health maven, and undocubae's beautiful partner, david calvillo. you all have been asking and patiently waiting to hear from the man himself! he is the man behind our coachella outfits, themed sunday brunches, trips to palm springs, tongue snaps and lingo, but more than anything the compassionate soul who has nurtured and cared for us in our most troubled times. david is an incredible psychotherapist who is dedicated to the mental well being of his clients through his work at the la county department of mental health. if you ever wonder why we love him so much, just wait 'til you hear his story of growing up in a religious pentecostal household, having survived conversion therapy and found a deep joy and gratitude in his identity as a queer man. this episode will shake you and leave you more tender than when you first came. this is our last episode of our first season, and we couldn't think of a better way to end it than with our favorite man.  shout out to www.instagram.com/hood_digest for lending loose accents their home & recording studio to bring you magic twice a month !
