This week we’re sharing some big chisme: We are writing a book!!!! And not just a regular degular book, but an illustrated, choose-your-own-adventure exploration of the impact of Latinx music on US culture and US culture on Latinx music. In today’s episode we talk through the process that got us here, and give you a little taste of the kind of things we are going to cover through some of our favorite songs. We wouldn’t be doing this if it weren’t for all of your support for this project over the last 8 years — those of you who’ve listened, who’ve donated and bought our merch, who’ve posted about us and written about us — y estamos muy agradecides. 🥹 We’re so happy to get to finally talk about this project (that has been in the works for literal years!) and are muy excited to bring it to you in 2025. Featuring music by Son by Four, Willie Colon, Hector Lavoe, Marc Anthony, Hector El Father, Yomo, Gloria Estefan, Juan Gabriel, Victor Victor and Carmen Delia Delpini.
