The podcast
May 7
So I really enjoy the podcasts. I have learned so much more about current Spain. I love the mix of the history and the current events. I will say the interview with Anita Fuentes was tough for me. Personally I don’t care a flip about actresses or musicians and their opinions about current events. What Rosalia believes are her opinions. They are her opinions and biases. The Goya’s are not the place for political discussion. It is purely about entertainment. I don’t feel that entertainers are at all educated about the true reality of current events, because as most of the world, they are very biased in where they choose to get information. So I did listen to the podcast, as I need to hear differing opinions, but she didn’t convince me that entertainers should influence world events. I still think they should just do what they do best and stay out of the rest. Keep up the good work with the podcast. I will buy you a cup of coffee as I am announcing to the world I like your podcast. And, I will keep my opinions to myself!

Only listened to your Catalonia Amnesty episode. I was curious about the image of Spain you were projecting to non-Spanish speakers. As a Spaniard living abroad, I don’t think I can be accused of being trapped in a bubble regarding Spanish politics. Your takes were absolutely one-sided against the unionists, even calling out judicial associations for, in your opinion, issuing clearly “political statements”, without even considering their legal (not political) argument that an amnesty violates the principle of separation of powers and is most likely against the “spirit of the law” of the Constitution, as it prohibits general pardons. You also made several references to the excessive violence from police officers, ignoring the violence from separatists mobs that bordered on terrorism according to several judges.
