  • Hombre: Understanding Latino Men ft. Chuck Rocha
    Jan 12 2025

    Much has been said about Latino men after the presidential election, but a lot of it lacks context. In order to deepen our understanding of Latino manhood and its influence in the United States at this moment, we are launching a new series, "Hombre: Understanding Latino Men" today. The series features nuanced conversations with a diverse group of hombres latinos.

    Our first guest is political consultant and Democratic strategist Chuck Rocha. He sits down with Maria Hinojosa to unpack why Latino men shifted further right in 2024 and how the Democratic Party failed to reach these voters.

  • 'One Hundred Years of Solitude' on Screen
    Jan 10 2025

    Netflix has brought Gabriel García Márquez’s iconic novel "One Hundred Years of Solitude" to life with a two-part limited series spanning over 16 hours of television. The Colombian masterpiece tells the multi-generational saga of the Buendía family, who establish the utopian town of Macondo. The story captures their struggles with love, war, curses, and solitude, intertwined with the magical realism that defines García Márquez’s literary style.

    We spoke to Alex García López, one of the series’ directors about the experience of creating the magical world of Macondo.

    This interview was recorded in early November.

  • Nacho's Special
    Jan 5 2025

    Nachos: They’re one of the most popular snack foods in the United States, and the name is instantly recognizable worldwide. Bright yellow nacho cheese is now a staple at countless sports events and movie nights, serving as a flavor of nostalgia to many.

    But nachos’ immense popularity over the years has overshadowed their true history. The first nachos weren’t invented in ballparks or designed for concession stands. They were created 80 years ago in a small town in Mexico, along the south Texas border. And they weren’t made to be a big hit. Still, nachos would end up bigger than anyone could have ever imagined.

    This episode originally aired in January 2023.
