Well articulated, fun and interesting content on many things Cuban. I’ve had a hard time finding more young leaning commentaries and outlooks on Cuban culture, history and current events..beyond Miami..and this podcast does it so well. It’s been able to keep me connected to my roots in these destabilizing times.
