Customer Reviews
Not only for Latinos
I came to this podcast with an interest in Latin/Spanish music and theatre and now I’m hooked. The host and her guests are diverse, informed, passionate, humorous and inspiring. There are obviously many different aspects of Latin and Spanish culture and it’s fascinating to get a peek inside worlds that even other Latinos are unaware of. It never feels like a private world that others are not allowed into and since it encompasses music and theatre and literature there is something for everyone. Highly recommended.
Amazing Podcast!
Jennifer has created an amazing platform to showcase and tell Latinx stories in the entertainment in the US. The Podcast has amazing structure, great audio quality, informed and candid conversations and incredible guests! This is a great resource for Latinx to get closer as a community ♥️ Can’t wait to hear more stories and see this podcast grow even more!
