Speaker 4: through election years, a global pandemic, civic unrest, political controversies,

7
00:00:22,840 --> 00:00:24,759
Speaker 4: the Me Too movement, the rise of TikTok, and we

8
00:00:24,840 --> 00:00:25,640

00:00:26,000 --> 00:00:27,680
Speaker 2: We're not done telling stories.

11
00:00:32,360 --> 00:00:35,400
Speaker 1: podcasting through a new decade of our lives.

Speaker 1: two sixteen Lociento's d SC.

24
00:01:16,400 --> 00:01:18,840
Speaker 4: Last time on Loca to a radio. We discussed the

25
00:01:18,920 --> 00:01:23,560
Speaker 4: mimification of evil, using the example of Trump's racist and

26
00:01:23,760 --> 00:01:28,319
Speaker 4: xenophobic remarks about the Haitian community in Springfield, Ohio, and

27
00:01:28,400 --> 00:01:31,000
Speaker 4: the way that those remarks have been turned into jokes

28
00:01:31,120 --> 00:01:34,600
Speaker 4: and memes all over the internet. This statement could be

29
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:39,120
Speaker 4: their very first introduction to the Haitian community and what

30
00:01:39,319 --> 00:01:42,280
Speaker 4: it means to be a person from Haiti. And you know,

31
00:01:42,360 --> 00:01:44,960
Speaker 4: I didn't meet anyone from Haiti until I went to college,

32
00:01:45,200 --> 00:01:48,280
Speaker 4: until I was an undergraduate, and I was in Boston, Massachusetts,

33
00:01:48,360 --> 00:01:51,080
Speaker 4: and so there was a much larger Caribbean community. Tune in,

34
00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:53,639
Speaker 4: leave a comment, subscribe, and share with a friend.

35
00:01:54,640 --> 00:01:57,360
Speaker 1: So in case you missed it, it's that time of

36
00:01:57,440 --> 00:02:01,200
Speaker 1: year again where Latinos and Hispanic folks come out of

37
00:02:01,240 --> 00:02:04,320
Speaker 1: hiding to celebrate Hispanic and Latino Heritage Month.

38
00:02:05,200 --> 00:02:06,840
Speaker 4: And you know, over here at Look, I thought our radio,

39
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:11,920
Speaker 4: it's always Latino, Latina, Latine and my personal favorite LATINX

40
00:02:12,080 --> 00:02:15,840
Speaker 4: Heritage Month, each and every day. But that doesn't mean

41
00:02:15,960 --> 00:02:18,360
Speaker 4: that we don't have some things to say about these

42
00:02:18,400 --> 00:02:21,880
Speaker 4: four extra special extra LATINX weeks that we have to

43
00:02:21,919 --> 00:02:27,440
Speaker 4: celebrate between September and October. I've always wondered, why do

44
00:02:27,520 --> 00:02:30,480
Speaker 4: we start in the middle of September and then end

45
00:02:30,480 --> 00:02:33,280
Speaker 4: in the middle of October. Why do we straddle these

46
00:02:33,320 --> 00:02:37,960
Speaker 4: two months, like why not one full month? What is

47
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:40,639
Speaker 4: the purpose? But there's actually a reason, and it's not

48
00:02:40,720 --> 00:02:43,639
Speaker 4: just because Hispanic Heritage Month in this way is kind

49
00:02:43,639 --> 00:02:45,359
Speaker 4: of like a Mestizo month.

50
00:02:45,560 --> 00:02:49,480
Speaker 1: I was about to say, yah, yeah, it's like symbolic,

51
00:02:49,560 --> 00:02:52,680
Speaker 1: it just makes sense, But there is an actual history

52
00:02:52,840 --> 00:02:56,240
Speaker 1: about Hispanic Heritage Month and why these four weeks were

53
00:02:56,280 --> 00:03:01,520
Speaker 1: specifically chosen. According to Hispanic Heritage Month dot GOV, each year,

54
00:03:01,639 --> 00:03:05,760
Speaker 1: Americans observe National Hispanic Heritage Month from September fifteenth to

55
00:03:05,840 --> 00:03:10,560
Speaker 1: October fifteenth by celebrating the histories, cultures, and contributions of

56
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:15,640
Speaker 1: American citizens whose ancestors came from Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean,

57
00:03:15,760 --> 00:03:17,400
Speaker 1: and Central and South America.

58
00:03:18,200 --> 00:03:22,440
Speaker 4: So something interesting is that this observation of Hispanic Heritage

59
00:03:22,480 --> 00:03:26,120
Speaker 4: Month actually started a while back in nineteen sixty eight,

60
00:03:26,280 --> 00:03:31,400
Speaker 4: and it was originally Hispanic Heritage Week under President Lyndon Johnson.

61
00:03:31,600 --> 00:03:35,800
Speaker 4: Hispanic Heritage Week was actually expanded by President Ronald Reagan

62
00:03:35,960 --> 00:03:39,080
Speaker 4: in nineteen eighty eight to cover a thirty day period

63
00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:43,120
Speaker 4: starting on September fifteenth and ending on October fifteenth. It

64
00:03:43,160 --> 00:03:46,120
Speaker 4: was enacted into law on August seventeenth, nineteen eighty eight,

65
00:03:46,160 --> 00:03:48,520
Speaker 4: on the approval of Public Law one hundred through four

66
00:03:48,640 --> 00:03:50,640
Speaker 4: or two. You can look that up if you're interested

67
00:03:50,680 --> 00:03:51,000
Speaker 4: in that.

68
00:03:51,920 --> 00:03:56,240
Speaker 1: The day of September fifteenth is also significant because it

69
00:03:56,320 --> 00:04:00,680
Speaker 1: is the anniversary of independence for Latin American countries like

70
00:04:00,840 --> 00:04:06,200
Speaker 1: Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and Nicaragua. In addition,

71
00:04:06,520 --> 00:04:10,720
Speaker 1: Mexico and Chile celebrate their independence days on September sixteenth

72
00:04:10,760 --> 00:04:12,960
Speaker 1: and September eighteenth, respectively.

73
00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,400
Speaker 4: So why celebrate Hispanics in the United States?

74
00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,000
Speaker 2: Why give us a month?

75
00:04:18,000 --> 00:04:21,280
Speaker 4: The Why celebrate us as a people and as a population.

76
00:04:21,800 --> 00:04:24,800
Speaker 4: So we're going to share some key facts about US

77
00:04:24,880 --> 00:04:28,360
Speaker 4: Latinos for National Hispanic Heritage Month. And this coming from

78
00:04:28,600 --> 00:04:32,400
Speaker 4: Pew research from a study in twenty twenty three. The

79
00:04:32,560 --> 00:04:36,960
Speaker 4: US Hispanic population reached sixty three point six million in

80
00:04:37,040 --> 00:04:39,920
Speaker 4: twenty twenty two, which is up from fifty point five

81
00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:43,080
Speaker 4: million in twenty ten. This is a twenty six percent

82
00:04:43,200 --> 00:04:46,640
Speaker 4: increase in the Hispanic population. And this increase in the

83
00:04:46,720 --> 00:04:50,960
Speaker 4: Hispanic population was actually faster than the nation's eight percent growth,

84
00:04:51,360 --> 00:04:54,280
Speaker 4: but slower than the thirty four percent increase in our

85
00:04:54,320 --> 00:04:58,120
Speaker 4: Asian American population. In twenty twenty two, Hispanics made up

86
00:04:58,160 --> 00:05:01,839
Speaker 4: nearly one in five people in the United States, meaning

87
00:05:02,720 --> 00:05:04,760
Speaker 4: if you're in a group of five people, at least

88
00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:07,080
Speaker 4: one of us is probably of Latin descent.

89
00:05:07,720 --> 00:05:10,480
Speaker 1: Latinos or Hispanics, have also played a major role in

90
00:05:10,560 --> 00:05:14,320
Speaker 1: US population growth over the past decade. The US population

91
00:05:14,400 --> 00:05:17,320
Speaker 1: grew by twenty four point five million from twenty ten

92
00:05:17,520 --> 00:05:20,840
Speaker 1: to twenty twenty two, and Hispanics accounted for fifty three

93
00:05:20,920 --> 00:05:22,240
Speaker 1: percent of that increase.

94
00:05:22,600 --> 00:05:25,040
Speaker 4: The number of Latinos who say that they are multiracial

95
00:05:25,080 --> 00:05:26,920
Speaker 4: has also increased dramatically.

96
00:05:27,040 --> 00:05:27,919
Speaker 2: We are a very.

97
00:05:27,800 --> 00:05:32,599
Speaker 4: Multicultural, multi ethnic, multiracial people group, and more than twenty

98
00:05:32,600 --> 00:05:35,599
Speaker 4: seven million Latinos identified with more than one race in

99
00:05:35,720 --> 00:05:37,039
Speaker 4: twenty twenty two.

100
00:05:37,160 --> 00:05:40,640
Speaker 1: These data points are so interesting because obviously the term

101
00:05:40,720 --> 00:05:45,520
Speaker 1: Hispanic was created by the US Census, So I'm so curious,

102
00:05:46,160 --> 00:05:49,640
Speaker 1: what is Hispanic and what is Latino? Are these stats

103
00:05:49,680 --> 00:05:53,359
Speaker 1: also including folks from Spain because it is they are

104
00:05:53,480 --> 00:05:55,800
Speaker 1: part of the Hispanic population If you.

105
00:05:55,760 --> 00:06:01,720
Speaker 4: Will, yes, I imagine that the span population is probably

106
00:06:01,720 --> 00:06:06,279
Speaker 4: pretty tiny compared to folks of Latin American origin. And again,

107
00:06:06,360 --> 00:06:10,479
Speaker 4: according to Pew Research, roughly thirty seven point four million

108
00:06:10,520 --> 00:06:14,200
Speaker 4: people of Mexican origin in the US represent almost sixty

109
00:06:14,279 --> 00:06:17,920
Speaker 4: percent of the nation's Hispanic population, this at least as

110
00:06:17,960 --> 00:06:20,840
Speaker 4: of twenty twenty two, and those of Puerto Rican origin

111
00:06:20,920 --> 00:06:23,840
Speaker 4: are the next largest group at five point nine million,

112
00:06:24,240 --> 00:06:27,360
Speaker 4: which does not include the three point two million Puerto

113
00:06:27,440 --> 00:06:30,240
Speaker 4: Ricans who lived on the island of Puerto Rico in

114
00:06:30,360 --> 00:06:34,040
Speaker 4: twenty twenty two. So my, okay, here we go. In addition,

115
00:06:34,080 --> 00:06:37,520
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty two, Spaniards accounted for nearly one million

116
00:06:37,960 --> 00:06:41,840
Speaker 4: US Latinos. So they do have, it seems, at least

117
00:06:41,839 --> 00:06:44,960
Speaker 4: according to Pew Research, they have their own place in

118
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:49,799
Speaker 4: our census data and in the counting of Hispanics.

119
00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,120
Speaker 1: Right, I mean, and that continues to be the conversation,

120
00:06:52,440 --> 00:06:54,640
Speaker 1: what do we call ourselves? And we're not getting into

121
00:06:54,640 --> 00:06:58,480
Speaker 1: that today because so many people have that conversation. And

122
00:06:58,520 --> 00:07:02,040
Speaker 1: I think, self identify how you want to identify. I

123
00:07:02,040 --> 00:07:05,440
Speaker 1: identify as Latina, which I know some folks don't like

124
00:07:05,520 --> 00:07:08,800
Speaker 1: that either, but that is true to my identity. There

125
00:07:08,839 --> 00:07:10,680
Speaker 1: was a while when I was in college, when I

126
00:07:10,680 --> 00:07:13,160
Speaker 1: was identifying as Chicana because it made sense for me

127
00:07:13,200 --> 00:07:17,240
Speaker 1: and my political understanding. But then the more time I

128
00:07:17,280 --> 00:07:19,880
Speaker 1: spent in Peru and in South America, I just felt

129
00:07:19,880 --> 00:07:22,400
Speaker 1: it didn't fit anymore, which is why as someone in

130
00:07:22,440 --> 00:07:26,360
Speaker 1: the US, Latina fits. But I also like just saying

131
00:07:26,560 --> 00:07:29,000
Speaker 1: we're my background, Well, my background is you know, I'm

132
00:07:29,000 --> 00:07:31,280
Speaker 1: proving Mexican. And then if you want to give me

133
00:07:31,280 --> 00:07:33,520
Speaker 1: an umbrella term, I'm proudly Latina.

134
00:07:34,080 --> 00:07:37,400
Speaker 4: Absolutely, there's the hyper specific of who we are as

135
00:07:37,440 --> 00:07:40,000
Speaker 4: individuals and who our parents are, and then there's like

136
00:07:40,840 --> 00:07:45,920
Speaker 4: are in group, you know, membership. I identify as Mexican

137
00:07:45,960 --> 00:07:49,760
Speaker 4: American or Chicana. I think that's just the most specific

138
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:54,400
Speaker 4: thing identity for me. I was very much raised by

139
00:07:54,400 --> 00:07:57,200
Speaker 4: my parents to identify as a Chicana. My dad identifies

140
00:07:57,200 --> 00:08:00,880
Speaker 4: as a Chicano, and I just feel like that's my

141
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:03,320
Speaker 4: culture and that's my people, and I'm an la Mexican

142
00:08:03,360 --> 00:08:04,720
Speaker 4: American and this is.

143
00:08:04,680 --> 00:08:06,760
Speaker 2: Just where we're from and what we do.

144
00:08:08,480 --> 00:08:11,440
Speaker 4: Yeah, and you know, but I'm not a I'm not

145
00:08:11,520 --> 00:08:15,000
Speaker 4: a Chicana that wears like you know those T shirts that.

146
00:08:14,960 --> 00:08:16,600
Speaker 2: Say like not Islan.

147
00:08:16,760 --> 00:08:19,640
Speaker 4: Yeah, let's say like Uslan and Vivola Rasa and like

148
00:08:19,880 --> 00:08:24,240
Speaker 4: not Hispanic, not Latino, not Mexican, Indigenous, you know like those.

149
00:08:24,360 --> 00:08:26,560
Speaker 2: I'm not one of those. I just want you guys

150
00:08:26,560 --> 00:08:26,960
Speaker 2: to know that.

151
00:08:29,560 --> 00:08:32,200
Speaker 4: And so for today's episode, we're gonna talk about some

152
00:08:32,280 --> 00:08:36,000
Speaker 4: of our top Hispanic Heritage moments of twenty twenty four.

153
00:08:36,360 --> 00:08:39,520
Speaker 4: And these being in no real particular order, we just

154
00:08:39,600 --> 00:08:43,120
Speaker 4: kind of thought about, like what was in the zeitgeist

155
00:08:43,280 --> 00:08:49,480
Speaker 4: this year as far as Latino, Latina, latinx Latina Hispanic people.

156
00:08:49,760 --> 00:08:52,160
Speaker 4: This is not an exhaustive list. If there were things

157
00:08:52,200 --> 00:08:54,440
Speaker 4: this year that really stood out to you that you're

158
00:08:54,520 --> 00:08:58,280
Speaker 4: celebrating this Hispanic Heritage Month or thinking about, let us know,

159
00:08:58,360 --> 00:09:00,280
Speaker 4: leave us a comment, leave us a review, and tell

160
00:09:00,320 --> 00:09:02,640
Speaker 4: us what we're missing from this list.

161
00:09:03,320 --> 00:09:04,800
Speaker 1: Don't go anywhere, lookamotes.

162
00:09:04,920 --> 00:09:05,920
Speaker 3: We'll be right.

163
00:09:05,679 --> 00:09:14,959
Speaker 2: Back, and we're back with more of our episode.

164
00:09:15,240 --> 00:09:20,160
Speaker 1: So it isn't a conversation about latinos latinas I think

165
00:09:20,240 --> 00:09:24,840
Speaker 1: if we don't start with the iconic, the beloved and

166
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:26,760
Speaker 1: hated Jennifer Lopez.

167
00:09:27,880 --> 00:09:32,640
Speaker 4: JLO has given us so much, so much to think about,

168
00:09:32,880 --> 00:09:35,199
Speaker 4: so much to watch and listen to, and a lot

169
00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:36,840
Speaker 4: to criticize and make fun of.

170
00:09:37,040 --> 00:09:38,640
Speaker 2: So this year was no exception.

171
00:09:39,400 --> 00:09:41,240
Speaker 4: And if you've been on the internet at all, and

172
00:09:41,320 --> 00:09:43,760
Speaker 4: even if you haven't been on the internet, you've probably

173
00:09:43,840 --> 00:09:46,839
Speaker 4: seen this meme that took off in a lot of

174
00:09:46,920 --> 00:09:51,160
Speaker 4: different forms talking about a Jlo quote from an acceptance

175
00:09:51,160 --> 00:09:55,000
Speaker 4: speech that she made in twenty eleven at the American

176
00:09:55,080 --> 00:09:57,880
Speaker 4: Music Awards for her win in the Latin Music category.

177
00:09:58,040 --> 00:10:03,960
Speaker 4: During her acceptance speech, Jlo thanked mihinte latino, which is

178
00:10:04,280 --> 00:10:08,320
Speaker 4: an incorrect use of Spanish. It should be mihinte latina.

179
00:10:08,440 --> 00:10:10,360
Speaker 5: Thank you so much, and all the producers on the

180
00:10:10,400 --> 00:10:23,080
Speaker 5: album everybody, Uh, don't have to say mi henda latino.

181
00:10:24,400 --> 00:10:28,560
Speaker 4: But I didn't realize that this clip and this moment

182
00:10:28,720 --> 00:10:33,120
Speaker 4: was from twenty eleven because it was circulating this year,

183
00:10:33,160 --> 00:10:35,640
Speaker 4: in twenty twenty four, in the past few months, and

184
00:10:35,679 --> 00:10:40,200
Speaker 4: circulating in a big way, and people making tiktoks with

185
00:10:40,280 --> 00:10:43,840
Speaker 4: the sound, a lot of tiktoks with the sound, people

186
00:10:44,040 --> 00:10:48,080
Speaker 4: doing a lot of like theorizing and analyzing and making

187
00:10:48,120 --> 00:10:52,480
Speaker 4: fun of It's really taken off. And I just feel

188
00:10:52,520 --> 00:10:55,600
Speaker 4: like every single year since Jlo has been working, which

189
00:10:55,600 --> 00:10:58,800
Speaker 4: has been decades now, she's been part of the conversation

190
00:10:59,679 --> 00:11:02,280
Speaker 4: whether a good way or a bad way, And this

191
00:11:02,480 --> 00:11:05,240
Speaker 4: was just one of many ways this year that Jlo

192
00:11:05,840 --> 00:11:09,120
Speaker 4: was in the conversation in a major way. She also

193
00:11:09,160 --> 00:11:12,360
Speaker 4: had movies out this year that she like self funded

194
00:11:12,400 --> 00:11:16,400
Speaker 4: and self produced. Of course we had benefit back in business,

195
00:11:16,400 --> 00:11:19,400
Speaker 4: and now they're not anymore. She's just been very busy

196
00:11:19,559 --> 00:11:22,479
Speaker 4: and she like she does. She's given us a lot.

197
00:11:22,760 --> 00:11:25,640
Speaker 1: She's given us a lot, and it's one of those

198
00:11:25,640 --> 00:11:28,400
Speaker 1: things where like nobody asked for this. I feels like

199
00:11:28,480 --> 00:11:33,520
Speaker 1: the consensus from the internet. But I for one, will

200
00:11:33,559 --> 00:11:37,800
Speaker 1: continue to follow Jlo on her work because I just

201
00:11:37,840 --> 00:11:39,320
Speaker 1: think she's someone for me.

202
00:11:39,679 --> 00:11:43,240
Speaker 3: Like we can critique. There's like critiques and then.

203
00:11:43,120 --> 00:11:45,480
Speaker 1: There's like criticizing, right, So I'm like, we can critique her,

204
00:11:45,480 --> 00:11:47,560
Speaker 1: but I'm not going to criticize her, you know what

205
00:11:47,600 --> 00:11:51,280
Speaker 1: I mean, Like, yeah, she's given us a lot, she

206
00:11:51,440 --> 00:11:55,640
Speaker 1: continues to give and she's just an icon, you know,

207
00:11:55,840 --> 00:11:58,040
Speaker 1: love her or hate her. I've been saying this for years.

208
00:11:58,040 --> 00:12:01,839
Speaker 1: She's the Elizabeth Taylor. She's gonna get married again. She

209
00:12:01,880 --> 00:12:05,000
Speaker 1: loves to get married, she loves love. She's a lover girl,

210
00:12:05,160 --> 00:12:08,800
Speaker 1: true and true and true, Like she's a lover girl.

211
00:12:08,880 --> 00:12:12,000
Speaker 1: And so you know, I love Jlo.

212
00:12:12,880 --> 00:12:15,040
Speaker 4: The next one is a sound that we have been

213
00:12:15,200 --> 00:12:19,000
Speaker 4: living for on TikTok. It is so freaking funny and

214
00:12:19,080 --> 00:12:21,679
Speaker 4: I love the way that Latinas are using this sound.

215
00:12:21,880 --> 00:12:24,040
Speaker 4: So it's kind of like a little bit of a poem.

216
00:12:24,360 --> 00:12:27,760
Speaker 2: Tears in my Latina eyes, blood on my Latina thighs,

217
00:12:28,520 --> 00:12:32,120
Speaker 2: dreams in my Latina head, I rest in my Latina bed.

218
00:12:32,960 --> 00:12:36,640
Speaker 1: It sounds like a poem written in a Chicano Cities class.

219
00:12:36,679 --> 00:12:38,440
Speaker 1: When you're like a freshman in college.

220
00:12:38,840 --> 00:12:41,839
Speaker 4: Oh absolutely, and you enter into like a spoken word

221
00:12:42,160 --> 00:12:43,640
Speaker 4: competition or showcase.

222
00:12:43,720 --> 00:12:46,959
Speaker 2: Oh absolutely, and this is what you share this. We've

223
00:12:46,960 --> 00:12:47,360
Speaker 2: all done it.

224
00:12:47,400 --> 00:12:49,720
Speaker 3: We've all done it. No shame, That's how we grow.

225
00:12:49,840 --> 00:12:53,320
Speaker 1: Speaking of bad art, exactly what is the source of

226
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:53,960
Speaker 1: this sound?

227
00:12:54,040 --> 00:12:54,559
Speaker 3: Do you know?

228
00:12:55,280 --> 00:12:58,320
Speaker 4: I have no idea because I was, you know, as

229
00:12:58,320 --> 00:13:02,760
Speaker 4: one does. I'm scrolling on TikTok, scrolling mindlessly, and I

230
00:13:02,800 --> 00:13:08,199
Speaker 4: saw a TikTok that was like just like an image

231
00:13:08,679 --> 00:13:15,000
Speaker 4: with these lyrics and the sound, which sounds like one

232
00:13:15,040 --> 00:13:18,760
Speaker 4: of the voice effects. Yeah, on the app, And that's

233
00:13:18,800 --> 00:13:20,840
Speaker 4: where I first heard it. And then I started and

234
00:13:20,840 --> 00:13:22,320
Speaker 4: I think I sent it to you, and then I

235
00:13:22,360 --> 00:13:27,480
Speaker 4: started seeing people Latinas putting themselves on camera, especially and

236
00:13:27,559 --> 00:13:31,160
Speaker 4: using the sound, but to like playfully mock their own

237
00:13:31,320 --> 00:13:35,320
Speaker 4: use of their various LATINX traumas, especially in their applications

238
00:13:35,320 --> 00:13:40,320
Speaker 4: for college, grad school, grants, jobs, opportunities, et cetera.

239
00:13:40,440 --> 00:13:41,640
Speaker 2: And I think it's really funny.

240
00:13:41,720 --> 00:13:45,360
Speaker 4: It's very like, yeah, maybe we're like kind of indulging

241
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:48,240
Speaker 4: in our own trauma a little bit, but maybe that's

242
00:13:48,240 --> 00:13:50,440
Speaker 4: a good thing, because like you got to get something

243
00:13:50,440 --> 00:13:52,760
Speaker 4: out of your trauma, and so if that gets you

244
00:13:52,800 --> 00:13:56,320
Speaker 4: into college or grad school, then write about it. Write

245
00:13:56,320 --> 00:13:57,959
Speaker 4: about your Latina tears.

246
00:13:58,280 --> 00:14:00,840
Speaker 2: Do it. You know somebody's gonna love it. There's an

247
00:14:00,880 --> 00:14:01,600
Speaker 2: audience for that.

248
00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:02,560
Speaker 3: Yeah.

249
00:14:02,640 --> 00:14:06,959
Speaker 1: I mean it's also definitely like mocking certain Latinas and

250
00:14:07,000 --> 00:14:11,400
Speaker 1: how they show up in their identity online. Some of it,

251
00:14:11,440 --> 00:14:14,800
Speaker 1: I think we know the ones. We know the ones

252
00:14:14,840 --> 00:14:18,320
Speaker 1: where it's a caricature. It's like what you think Latini

253
00:14:18,360 --> 00:14:22,600
Speaker 1: that is. And then there's like, you know, something that's

254
00:14:22,600 --> 00:14:24,040
Speaker 1: more authentic, you know.

255
00:14:24,320 --> 00:14:24,920
Speaker 3: But that's the thing.

256
00:14:24,920 --> 00:14:27,280
Speaker 1: It's like I saw a comment that was like, Latini

257
00:14:27,320 --> 00:14:31,040
Speaker 1: that is meant to be corny because it's a colonial project, right,

258
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:34,400
Speaker 1: it's not meant to be like this deep ass thing, right,

259
00:14:34,720 --> 00:14:37,680
Speaker 1: which I think is something to consider. Like, there's a

260
00:14:37,720 --> 00:14:41,720
Speaker 1: lot of things on like the latinx Internet, if you will,

261
00:14:42,400 --> 00:14:44,160
Speaker 1: that's corny.

262
00:14:44,280 --> 00:14:44,560
Speaker 2: Yeah.

263
00:14:44,680 --> 00:14:48,160
Speaker 4: I also see like younger Latinas on TikTok in particular

264
00:14:48,480 --> 00:14:52,320
Speaker 4: talking about how they're very tired of gunchas on everything,

265
00:14:52,640 --> 00:14:56,280
Speaker 4: freedom on everything, hot cheetos on everything, no pilas on everything,

266
00:14:56,360 --> 00:14:59,200
Speaker 4: And we've talked about that too. Yeah, there is more

267
00:14:59,720 --> 00:15:02,280
Speaker 4: out there there for us to pool from. But it's

268
00:15:02,320 --> 00:15:06,840
Speaker 4: also you know, once something becomes mainstream, it's mainstream. And

269
00:15:06,880 --> 00:15:10,720
Speaker 4: like we just talked about with the Pew data, Latinos

270
00:15:10,720 --> 00:15:14,000
Speaker 4: our mainstream. There's millions of us. There's a lot of us.

271
00:15:14,080 --> 00:15:18,040
Speaker 4: We are increasing the overall population of the United States.

272
00:15:18,120 --> 00:15:22,040
Speaker 4: One in five people is probably of Latino discent on us.

273
00:15:22,360 --> 00:15:25,960
Speaker 1: We're not increasing the population depending on we're educating.

274
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:27,400
Speaker 2: Oh, we're educating the population.

275
00:15:27,800 --> 00:15:30,120
Speaker 4: You know, one in five people is probably Latino depending

276
00:15:30,160 --> 00:15:32,720
Speaker 4: on where you are in the United States. So we're

277
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:36,880
Speaker 4: not like, you know, a tiny people group that's that's

278
00:15:36,920 --> 00:15:42,120
Speaker 4: disenfranchised across the board, right, So, yeah, Latinos our mainstream.

279
00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:43,880
Speaker 1: Y'all, don't go anywhere lokomotives.

280
00:15:44,000 --> 00:15:52,120
Speaker 2: We'll be right back, We're back with more. We hope

281
00:15:52,120 --> 00:15:53,160
Speaker 2: you didn't go anywhere.

282
00:15:53,640 --> 00:15:58,520
Speaker 4: So moving on our next favorite Hispanic heritage moment, which

283
00:15:58,560 --> 00:16:02,240
Speaker 4: is a really recent moment. We are so super duper

284
00:16:02,280 --> 00:16:06,440
Speaker 4: proud of our friend DJ Sizzle Fantastic and the Kumiaton Collective,

285
00:16:06,840 --> 00:16:09,320
Speaker 4: who have not only performed at the Ford, but at

286
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,960
Speaker 4: this point they've also performed on stage at the Hollywood

287
00:16:12,960 --> 00:16:17,920
Speaker 4: Bowl alongside such iconic acts as La Sonorra Dnamita the

288
00:16:17,960 --> 00:16:21,840
Speaker 4: Hollywood Bowl. Honestly, that Kumbia night, the Hollywood Bowl has

289
00:16:21,880 --> 00:16:24,120
Speaker 4: never been so lit. There has never been so much

290
00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:28,080
Speaker 4: dancing in the aisles in the stairway. I mean, the

291
00:16:28,120 --> 00:16:31,560
Speaker 4: audience was up, they were active and people were.

292
00:16:31,440 --> 00:16:35,200
Speaker 2: Having an incredible time. Sizzle looked amazing. She had this

293
00:16:35,280 --> 00:16:37,479
Speaker 2: gorgeous dress and this fabulous updu.

294
00:16:37,600 --> 00:16:40,760
Speaker 1: She was like channeling Selena. I know she was. I

295
00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,960
Speaker 1: know that was definitely on her Pinterest board and she achieved.

296
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:44,840
Speaker 3: She looked beautiful.

297
00:16:44,960 --> 00:16:45,360
Speaker 2: She did it.

298
00:16:45,600 --> 00:16:48,200
Speaker 1: Yeah, she looked gorgeous. So proud of Sizzle and the

299
00:16:48,280 --> 00:16:52,320
Speaker 1: Kumiaton Collective and all the folks that were involved, because

300
00:16:52,320 --> 00:16:55,320
Speaker 1: the Hollywood Bowl is such an iconic venue in LA

301
00:16:55,680 --> 00:16:58,840
Speaker 1: and not just anyone performs there. When I went to

302
00:16:58,840 --> 00:17:01,840
Speaker 1: see Carla Morrison last year perform at the Hollywood Bowl,

303
00:17:01,960 --> 00:17:04,560
Speaker 1: she said, I can't believe I'm performing at the Hollywood Bowl.

304
00:17:04,880 --> 00:17:07,520
Speaker 1: Like Gotla Montesen is like a star, and I think

305
00:17:07,560 --> 00:17:09,960
Speaker 1: even she had that moment on stage where she was like,

306
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:11,400
Speaker 1: I can't believe I'm performing here.

307
00:17:11,960 --> 00:17:14,520
Speaker 3: And so then to see our friends on.

308
00:17:14,480 --> 00:17:17,399
Speaker 1: Stage and to see Sizzle looking so beautiful and repin

309
00:17:17,920 --> 00:17:21,720
Speaker 1: for La and her community so hard was such a magical,

310
00:17:21,840 --> 00:17:22,680
Speaker 1: beautiful thing to.

311
00:17:22,640 --> 00:17:24,879
Speaker 2: See, extremely incredibly.

312
00:17:25,080 --> 00:17:28,080
Speaker 4: You can get more Sizzle and actually hear from Sizzle

313
00:17:28,400 --> 00:17:31,240

321
00:17:48,640 --> 00:17:51,040
Speaker 1: Next on the list, Mala, have you been following the

322
00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:54,480
Speaker 1: Anheila Aguilar and Christinolal drama?

323
00:17:54,880 --> 00:17:55,240
Speaker 2: Okay?

324
00:17:55,320 --> 00:17:58,040
Speaker 4: Is there some like infidelity and cheating and somebody stole

325
00:17:58,080 --> 00:18:01,160
Speaker 4: somebody's man allegedly. Okay, tell me about it, because I only,

326
00:18:01,359 --> 00:18:03,760
Speaker 4: like very vaguely have seen mentions of this.

327
00:18:04,119 --> 00:18:04,439
Speaker 3: Okay.

328
00:18:04,840 --> 00:18:09,640
Speaker 1: So Christiano is a Mexican singer performer. He's very famous,

329
00:18:09,720 --> 00:18:14,080
Speaker 1: very popular, and he has kind of now created this

330
00:18:14,160 --> 00:18:18,800
Speaker 1: reputation of being like Omohiriego, being a cheater. And so

331
00:18:19,000 --> 00:18:21,960
Speaker 1: first he was dating Belinda, the Belinda.

332
00:18:22,000 --> 00:18:24,679
Speaker 2: Okay, I know who she is nova, right, she was

333
00:18:24,680 --> 00:18:25,439
Speaker 2: in Cheater Girls.

334
00:18:26,400 --> 00:18:29,560
Speaker 3: Yes, Belina wasn' that's how I love that's how.

335
00:18:29,600 --> 00:18:32,080
Speaker 4: See, that's my reference. That's how I found out about

336
00:18:32,080 --> 00:18:36,199
Speaker 4: her for the Barcelona cheatera Girls movie, specifically because she

337
00:18:36,280 --> 00:18:36,719
Speaker 4: was in it.

338
00:18:36,760 --> 00:18:37,639
Speaker 3: Okay, she was in it.

339
00:18:38,080 --> 00:18:41,199
Speaker 1: Okay, So he was dating her, and then he eventually

340
00:18:41,280 --> 00:18:44,840
Speaker 1: started dating Gasu. And Gasu is another singer from Argintina.

341
00:18:45,400 --> 00:18:48,240
Speaker 1: She has her own musical career and she had a

342
00:18:48,280 --> 00:18:52,080
Speaker 1: baby with him very recently. And so it appears that

343
00:18:52,160 --> 00:18:57,720
Speaker 1: Anhila Aguilar, who is famously daughter of Pepe Aguilar okay a,

344
00:18:58,240 --> 00:19:02,480
Speaker 1: they're a dynasty in Mexico. So she was friends with

345
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:06,520
Speaker 1: Gasu and there was a point where on an Instagram

346
00:19:06,520 --> 00:19:12,360
Speaker 1: photo of Christian and Casu, she says fan the sura Lacion, Yes,

347
00:19:12,400 --> 00:19:16,359
Speaker 1: shady yes, so she knew them as a couple, she

348
00:19:16,560 --> 00:19:19,760
Speaker 1: loved allegedly loved them as a couple. Next thing, you know,

349
00:19:20,400 --> 00:19:24,600
Speaker 1: we see Ahila Aguilad and Christian Olan are together and

350
00:19:24,680 --> 00:19:28,840
Speaker 1: Gasu just had a baby, like when their relationship went public.

351
00:19:29,000 --> 00:19:32,960
Speaker 1: She had her baby with Christian was like only months old,

352
00:19:33,880 --> 00:19:35,840
Speaker 1: so there was definitely some overlap.

353
00:19:36,000 --> 00:19:38,000
Speaker 3: And of course who got the heat.

354
00:19:37,920 --> 00:19:42,920
Speaker 1: From the public was Ahila not Christian, And so there

355
00:19:43,040 --> 00:19:47,040
Speaker 1: was like a lot of polemica drama about that. It

356
00:19:47,119 --> 00:19:50,879
Speaker 1: was all over my TikTok, honestly, and so I was

357
00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:53,640
Speaker 1: keeping up with that for a while. So then next

358
00:19:53,680 --> 00:19:56,280
Speaker 1: step Anghela and Christian get married.

359
00:19:56,960 --> 00:20:00,760
Speaker 3: No wow, yeah, and so the room is that.

360
00:20:00,760 --> 00:20:03,679
Speaker 1: Beilard was like, you are not gonna do that. You

361
00:20:03,720 --> 00:20:05,200
Speaker 1: are not gonna embarrass my daughter.

362
00:20:06,720 --> 00:20:07,479
Speaker 2: They ma ass us.

363
00:20:08,119 --> 00:20:08,919
Speaker 3: So they get married.

364
00:20:09,400 --> 00:20:12,560
Speaker 1: So they get married, and there's this video that goes viral.

365
00:20:13,600 --> 00:20:15,400
Speaker 1: There's a lot of videos that have gone viral where

366
00:20:15,400 --> 00:20:17,639
Speaker 1: people are now making fun of an Hilda gui Lad.

367
00:20:17,720 --> 00:20:19,480
Speaker 1: She's kind of the butt of the joke right now.

368
00:20:19,640 --> 00:20:22,160
Speaker 1: She's not really liked it. And Mexico in in terms

369
00:20:22,200 --> 00:20:27,080
Speaker 1: of like popular culture public consensus, people don't like the

370
00:20:27,160 --> 00:20:27,720
Speaker 1: other woman.

371
00:20:28,160 --> 00:20:30,639
Speaker 4: We know that, especially when there's a tiny baby.

372
00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:31,280
Speaker 3: Yeah.

373
00:20:31,960 --> 00:20:36,119
Speaker 1: Yes, So there's a couple videos that have gone viral,

374
00:20:36,200 --> 00:20:51,679
Speaker 1: but one of them is where she's screeching amor so.

375
00:20:51,880 --> 00:20:55,399
Speaker 3: Now folks have replicated that sound.

376
00:20:55,520 --> 00:20:58,200
Speaker 1: They've stitched it with the video of her saying ahmod

377
00:20:58,680 --> 00:21:02,760
Speaker 1: and they're like opening a ca they're closing something, they're

378
00:21:02,840 --> 00:21:07,879
Speaker 1: finding all these ordinary household objects that replicate that same

379
00:21:08,080 --> 00:21:11,560
Speaker 1: high screech. And so to me, that has been like

380
00:21:11,760 --> 00:21:15,760
Speaker 1: one of the most funny moments if we're thinking about

381
00:21:15,800 --> 00:21:19,400
Speaker 1: it for Latino Heritage Month, that like say, youse be done.

382
00:21:19,840 --> 00:21:22,879
Speaker 4: Yeah, okay, thank you so much for catching me up. Yes,

383
00:21:24,040 --> 00:21:25,200
Speaker 4: I have learned a lot.

384
00:21:27,440 --> 00:21:28,000
Speaker 3: You're welcome.

385
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:28,840
Speaker 4: That is drama.

386
00:21:28,880 --> 00:21:31,560
Speaker 2: Okay, no wonder it's all over the place. Yes, O

387
00:21:32,119 --> 00:21:32,720
Speaker 2: M G.

388
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:37,600
Speaker 3: Yes, and there's so much more. But that's the gist.

389
00:21:37,840 --> 00:21:38,560
Speaker 2: That's pretty good.

390
00:21:38,600 --> 00:21:38,840
Speaker 4: I know.

391
00:21:38,960 --> 00:21:41,520
Speaker 2: That's pretty good drama. There's more drama on our list.

392
00:21:41,600 --> 00:21:44,280
Speaker 1: I was gonna say, onto the next because this is

393
00:21:44,280 --> 00:21:46,040
Speaker 1: something I'm not familiar with.

394
00:21:45,960 --> 00:21:46,560
Speaker 3: But you are.

395
00:21:46,760 --> 00:21:50,520
Speaker 4: Oh yes, yes, so talk me through this one. Let's

396
00:21:50,520 --> 00:21:53,439
Speaker 4: talk about the rise and fall of Shoddy Bay. You guys,

397
00:21:53,560 --> 00:21:58,320
Speaker 4: I have been watching from a distance and saying nothing

398
00:21:58,560 --> 00:22:01,800
Speaker 4: and not to me. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I've been

399
00:22:01,840 --> 00:22:05,080
Speaker 4: I'll like send of a long voice memo to Viosa

400
00:22:05,280 --> 00:22:08,440
Speaker 4: like theorizing about Shadi Bay and like her place in

401
00:22:08,560 --> 00:22:11,600
Speaker 4: popular culture. And I just find the whole Shoddy Bay

402
00:22:11,640 --> 00:22:16,080
Speaker 4: trajectory to be fascinating and tragic to watch from a distance.

403
00:22:16,480 --> 00:22:18,879
Speaker 4: But there really is no denying her place in like

404
00:22:19,000 --> 00:22:23,159
Speaker 4: LATINX popular culture and social media. She has captured the

405
00:22:23,200 --> 00:22:27,040
Speaker 4: attention of millions of TikTok users, I think most of

406
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:32,360
Speaker 4: whom are of the Latino community. And she apparently has

407
00:22:32,480 --> 00:22:36,040
Speaker 4: had her own following for many years now. A Shadi

408
00:22:36,119 --> 00:22:40,440
Speaker 4: Bay is Ecuadorian and she's from Minnesota, and she had

409
00:22:40,600 --> 00:22:44,080
Speaker 4: sort of her own kind of underground like following for

410
00:22:44,119 --> 00:22:48,040
Speaker 4: a few years, and then in the past couple of years,

411
00:22:48,080 --> 00:22:51,520
Speaker 4: maybe two or three years, she has just taken all.

412
00:22:51,400 --> 00:22:52,119
Speaker 2: The way off.

413
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:56,720
Speaker 4: And what people seem to initially have liked about her

414
00:22:56,840 --> 00:22:59,640
Speaker 4: are her like funny little catch phrases, like she has

415
00:22:59,680 --> 00:23:02,240
Speaker 4: a fun way of saying things. She almost has her own,

416
00:23:02,280 --> 00:23:06,880
Speaker 4: like shoddy speak and debias and oh my gothos and

417
00:23:07,040 --> 00:23:10,240
Speaker 4: all these things that are very quotable. She apparently like

418
00:23:10,480 --> 00:23:15,240
Speaker 4: escaped from her mother's home, she says, in Minnesota, because

419
00:23:15,240 --> 00:23:18,119
Speaker 4: she like went to some event in a different state

420
00:23:18,240 --> 00:23:19,919
Speaker 4: and then just like never went home and then just

421
00:23:20,000 --> 00:23:24,960
Speaker 4: came to La and then she moved into like one

422
00:23:25,000 --> 00:23:28,760
Speaker 4: of these like content creator houses with like this other

423
00:23:28,920 --> 00:23:34,919
Speaker 4: LATINX influencer Uilito and another influencer, Jose Bay is like

424
00:23:35,000 --> 00:23:36,640
Speaker 4: in the mix as well. There's like a whole little

425
00:23:36,640 --> 00:23:39,239
Speaker 4: group of them. There's a girl named Wendy, and then

426
00:23:39,320 --> 00:23:42,480
Speaker 4: they all got beef. They all started fighting with each other.

427
00:23:42,680 --> 00:23:45,960
Speaker 4: There was like major drama. They all moved out of

428
00:23:46,000 --> 00:23:49,600
Speaker 4: that content house. Shoddy is like on her own now,

429
00:23:49,640 --> 00:23:52,040
Speaker 4: but she's like the biggest one out of all all

430
00:23:52,119 --> 00:23:55,639
Speaker 4: of them as as far as followers go. What I

431
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:58,600
Speaker 4: think is really interesting about her is that the attention

432
00:23:58,720 --> 00:24:03,440
Speaker 4: that she's gotten has been like really intense. Like Cheeky's

433
00:24:03,480 --> 00:24:05,960
Speaker 4: had her on stage with her at one of her shows.

434
00:24:06,520 --> 00:24:08,920
Speaker 4: I saw online that Shady Bay did like a meet

435
00:24:08,920 --> 00:24:11,280
Speaker 4: and greet at the Crito's mall, and it was so

436
00:24:11,640 --> 00:24:16,520
Speaker 4: packed out with fans that the sheriffs were like surrounding

437
00:24:16,600 --> 00:24:19,679
Speaker 4: Shoddy Bay to escort her and move her through the

438
00:24:19,760 --> 00:24:23,920
Speaker 4: crowd of like screaming like Latino fans who showed up

439
00:24:23,960 --> 00:24:28,080
Speaker 4: in Currito's, and she's just has like this huge presence,

440
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:31,320
Speaker 4: and she has merch and she has brand deals. She's

441
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:34,280
Speaker 4: appearing on radio, like I think she was on Big

442
00:24:34,320 --> 00:24:35,040
Speaker 4: Boy in the morning.

443
00:24:35,359 --> 00:24:36,600
Speaker 2: She's all over the place.

444
00:24:36,840 --> 00:24:40,600
Speaker 4: However, there seems to be this element of like people

445
00:24:40,640 --> 00:24:43,640
Speaker 4: are kind of analyzing her as what some folks would

446
00:24:43,680 --> 00:24:47,280
Speaker 4: call like a loll cow, which is, does this person

447
00:24:47,920 --> 00:24:51,320
Speaker 4: feel like there the audience is laughing with her or

448
00:24:51,400 --> 00:24:56,160
Speaker 4: laughing at her. And it's been odd to like watch

449
00:24:56,560 --> 00:25:00,200
Speaker 4: like our Latino TikTok audience sort of like hyph her

450
00:25:00,320 --> 00:25:03,719
Speaker 4: up and project her into this level of stardom, but

451
00:25:03,760 --> 00:25:07,760
Speaker 4: then also in not unlike in a Jla way, but

452
00:25:07,800 --> 00:25:11,480
Speaker 4: then also be super nasty to her and like denigrate

453
00:25:11,560 --> 00:25:14,359
Speaker 4: her and talk really poorly about her.

454
00:25:15,040 --> 00:25:16,760
Speaker 2: And it seems.

455
00:25:16,440 --> 00:25:20,560
Speaker 4: Like like this very double edged thing with Shoddy Bay.

456
00:25:20,680 --> 00:25:23,760
Speaker 4: And so I also wonder, like with someone like Shoddy

457
00:25:23,920 --> 00:25:29,240
Speaker 4: like did people hype her up specifically because they knew,

458
00:25:29,560 --> 00:25:33,040
Speaker 4: like I don't know, like psychologically that there would be

459
00:25:33,080 --> 00:25:37,679
Speaker 4: a downfall, And do people almost enjoy like that process,

460
00:25:37,880 --> 00:25:40,680
Speaker 4: like this group think of like we're gonna do this

461
00:25:40,800 --> 00:25:43,480
Speaker 4: feverish hyping up of this person, They're gonna get real

462
00:25:43,560 --> 00:25:46,120
Speaker 4: big and then we're just gonna love the tear down.

463
00:25:46,600 --> 00:25:46,800
Speaker 1: You know.

464
00:25:46,880 --> 00:25:50,040
Speaker 4: It's almost like when you go on a bender and

465
00:25:50,119 --> 00:25:52,960
Speaker 4: you know that you're gonna feel like shit the next day.

466
00:25:53,040 --> 00:25:56,160
Speaker 4: You know it's coming, but that's almost part of the experience.

467
00:25:56,280 --> 00:25:59,040
Speaker 4: It's the high and then it's the come down. And

468
00:25:59,080 --> 00:26:02,040
Speaker 4: that is what I have sort of witnessed or observed

469
00:26:02,119 --> 00:26:02,960
Speaker 4: with Shoddy Bay.

470
00:26:03,560 --> 00:26:03,800
Speaker 3: Yeah.

471
00:26:03,840 --> 00:26:07,360
Speaker 1: I think that applies to women in general, where they

472
00:26:07,400 --> 00:26:11,439
Speaker 1: become super popular and then the public turns, like the

473
00:26:11,480 --> 00:26:12,800
Speaker 1: tide turns instantly.

474
00:26:12,920 --> 00:26:14,480
Speaker 3: We've seen that with Jenna Ortega.

475
00:26:14,560 --> 00:26:17,480
Speaker 1: I'm just thinking in the last year, Jena Ortega, recently

476
00:26:17,560 --> 00:26:21,560
Speaker 1: with Chapel Rone, Like, there are so many women that

477
00:26:21,640 --> 00:26:25,160
Speaker 1: reach like a certain level where they're mainstream or they're

478
00:26:25,200 --> 00:26:29,480
Speaker 1: super popular, adoring fans, and then just kidding, you said

479
00:26:29,480 --> 00:26:31,800
Speaker 1: something I didn't like or you did something a certain way.

480
00:26:32,680 --> 00:26:33,880
Speaker 3: I don't know if that's the same.

481
00:26:33,720 --> 00:26:37,800
Speaker 1: Thing here, but I do see a connection with some

482
00:26:38,040 --> 00:26:40,359
Speaker 1: of the other starlets, if you will.

483
00:26:41,280 --> 00:26:42,399
Speaker 3: I also wonder if it's.

484
00:26:42,280 --> 00:26:44,960
Speaker 1: Maybe like the TikTok version of cancel culture, you know,

485
00:26:45,080 --> 00:26:49,239
Speaker 1: like where on Twitter it was, oh, we're all going

486
00:26:49,320 --> 00:26:52,119
Speaker 1: to like go and like tweet at this person, and

487
00:26:52,160 --> 00:26:54,159
Speaker 1: we're all going to talk about them, and we're going

488
00:26:54,240 --> 00:26:56,560
Speaker 1: to like quote bring them down or quote cancel them.

489
00:26:56,800 --> 00:26:58,800
Speaker 1: And you know, whether cancel culture is real or not,

490
00:26:58,920 --> 00:27:02,160
Speaker 1: like that's another conversation. But we saw the people participating

491
00:27:02,200 --> 00:27:04,760
Speaker 1: in like a vitriol or a takedown of a certain person,

492
00:27:05,480 --> 00:27:08,600
Speaker 1: some deserving, some not right, And so I wonder if

493
00:27:08,600 --> 00:27:10,880
Speaker 1: this is maybe the TikTok equivalent, where it's like we're

494
00:27:10,920 --> 00:27:12,879
Speaker 1: all going to like band together and get this person

495
00:27:12,920 --> 00:27:14,160
Speaker 1: here and then sas.

496
00:27:14,800 --> 00:27:18,520
Speaker 4: Yes, that's it, Yeah, it's It reminds me of Anna

497
00:27:18,600 --> 00:27:21,480
Speaker 4: Nicole Smith. It reminds me of Pamela Anderson. I mean,

498
00:27:21,520 --> 00:27:24,840
Speaker 4: there's a very long list, like you mentioned, especially of women.

499
00:27:25,800 --> 00:27:27,920
Speaker 4: Let's build them up so we can then have fun

500
00:27:28,000 --> 00:27:32,359
Speaker 4: tearing them down. It's very strange, but Shoddy Bay like

501
00:27:32,359 --> 00:27:35,440
Speaker 4: seems to be sort of weathering the storm and making

502
00:27:35,480 --> 00:27:38,160
Speaker 4: the best of it. So I don't know, We're I'm

503
00:27:38,240 --> 00:27:40,560
Speaker 4: keeping I'm keeping an eye on her right because I

504
00:27:40,560 --> 00:27:43,240
Speaker 4: find the whole thing very interesting, but also like leave

505
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:46,520
Speaker 4: her alone, Leave the poor girl alone. I've also noticed,

506
00:27:46,520 --> 00:27:50,920
Speaker 4: you know, there are so many different like subsets of

507
00:27:51,000 --> 00:27:55,400
Speaker 4: like the latinal like I don't know social media world totally,

508
00:27:56,200 --> 00:27:59,040
Speaker 4: and you'll have somebody like Shoddy Bay with millions and

509
00:27:59,080 --> 00:28:01,800
Speaker 4: millions of followers. And then I see, like, you know,

510
00:28:02,160 --> 00:28:04,560
Speaker 4: latinx content creators that are maybe a little more like

511
00:28:04,600 --> 00:28:08,919
Speaker 4: in our sort of sphere, who will ask the question like,

512
00:28:09,400 --> 00:28:14,440
Speaker 4: why do we put quote like these Latinos?

513
00:28:14,640 --> 00:28:16,320
Speaker 2: Why don't we put these latinos on?

514
00:28:16,760 --> 00:28:19,680
Speaker 4: Okay, you know, I saw there was another I don't

515
00:28:19,680 --> 00:28:21,679
Speaker 4: remember the name of this person, but there was a

516
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:24,640
Speaker 4: Latina who was like on a podcast somewhere and her

517
00:28:24,720 --> 00:28:26,800
Speaker 4: clip went super viral because she was talking about how

518
00:28:26,800 --> 00:28:29,640
Speaker 4: she didn't graduate from high school. I saw that one, yeah, yeah,

519
00:28:29,680 --> 00:28:32,359
Speaker 4: and we were talking about this that went super viral,

520
00:28:32,440 --> 00:28:34,800
Speaker 4: and there was a lot of conversation around it, and

521
00:28:34,840 --> 00:28:36,760
Speaker 4: it was the same sort of questions, why do we

522
00:28:36,840 --> 00:28:40,360
Speaker 4: hype these Latinas up who like don't have education, or

523
00:28:40,360 --> 00:28:43,080
Speaker 4: they're not social justice oriented, they don't do anything for

524
00:28:43,160 --> 00:28:45,400
Speaker 4: the community. And I'm like, well, yeah, that's a good question.

525
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:47,440
Speaker 4: Why are you hyping them up just to turn around

526
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:49,440
Speaker 4: and talk mad shit about them? We wouldn't know who

527
00:28:49,440 --> 00:28:53,160
Speaker 4: they are unless you us we were putting them out,

528
00:28:53,240 --> 00:28:53,440
Speaker 4: you know.

529
00:28:53,800 --> 00:28:54,360
Speaker 2: So I don't know.

530
00:28:54,360 --> 00:28:57,080
Speaker 4: It's like, don't pedestal people just to turn around and

531
00:28:57,120 --> 00:28:59,080
Speaker 4: complain about the pedestal you put them on.

532
00:28:59,280 --> 00:29:01,360
Speaker 2: Absolutely, let's move on next.

533
00:29:02,280 --> 00:29:04,560
Speaker 1: Well, we obviously have to include ourselves in this list

534
00:29:04,600 --> 00:29:07,720
Speaker 1: because we launched a brand new podcast this year, Senora

535
00:29:07,840 --> 00:29:12,040
Speaker 1: sex Ed. It's years in the making, and it's our

536
00:29:12,280 --> 00:29:17,560
Speaker 1: new podcast featuring intergenerational conversations with Latinas from gen X

537
00:29:17,600 --> 00:29:21,640
Speaker 1: to gen Z. We're interviewing Senora Senoritas and we're talking

538
00:29:21,720 --> 00:29:23,520
Speaker 1: about all things sex and sexuality.

539
00:29:24,320 --> 00:29:28,560
Speaker 4: And now why is this worthy of Hispanic Heritage Month recognition?

540
00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:30,800
Speaker 4: Will you tell me the last time you saw a

541
00:29:30,840 --> 00:29:34,200
Speaker 4: show like this? You know this is show? This show

542
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,440
Speaker 4: is very unique. I think this show is it is

543
00:29:37,560 --> 00:29:40,240
Speaker 4: years in the making, It's taken us years to make it,

544
00:29:41,040 --> 00:29:43,920
Speaker 4: and there's nothing else like it out there. And we're

545
00:29:43,960 --> 00:29:48,880
Speaker 4: interviewing some of the most iconic Latinas ever period about

546
00:29:49,080 --> 00:29:52,080
Speaker 4: things like their periods and how they learned about sex

547
00:29:52,080 --> 00:29:56,120
Speaker 4: and sexuality. We're talking to them about menopause and perimenopause

548
00:29:56,160 --> 00:30:01,840
Speaker 4: and masturbation and virginity and sexual violence and creating art.

549
00:30:02,240 --> 00:30:05,360
Speaker 4: It's really interesting and it's really cool. So it's now

550
00:30:05,400 --> 00:30:07,080
Speaker 4: it's part of the cultural zeitgeist.

551
00:30:07,400 --> 00:30:07,760
Speaker 3: It is.

552
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:10,200
Speaker 1: And we were actually talking to Vittinia, the editor in

553
00:30:10,240 --> 00:30:13,840
Speaker 1: chief of Hip Latina this morning, and she said that

554
00:30:13,880 --> 00:30:15,840
Speaker 1: when she listened to Senana Sex said it was giving

555
00:30:15,960 --> 00:30:23,280
Speaker 1: NPR and well, personally, as a radio audio enthusiast, I

556
00:30:23,320 --> 00:30:23,720
Speaker 1: loved it.

557
00:30:23,760 --> 00:30:24,760
Speaker 3: I loved that comparison.

558
00:30:24,800 --> 00:30:25,080
Speaker 4: Thank you.

627
00:34:20,480 --> 00:34:23,040
Speaker 4: so what better way to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month than

628
00:34:23,080 --> 00:34:26,080
Speaker 4: by celebrating the birth of everyone's favorite libra. But I

629
00:34:26,160 --> 00:34:27,720

Speaker 3: But you're right.

634
00:34:32,880 --> 00:34:35,359

635
00:34:36,520 --> 00:34:38,960
Speaker 2: You are part of this country's Latino heritage.

636

650
00:35:13,480 --> 00:35:15,840
Speaker 4: et cetera. I think this just needs to be a

651
00:35:15,920 --> 00:35:17,440
Speaker 4: yearly a tradition.

652
00:35:17,719 --> 00:35:18,040

653
00:35:18,080 --> 00:35:21,880
Speaker 1: So this is now our second episode of this kind.

654
00:35:22,239 --> 00:35:25,520
Speaker 1: Last year, season eight, we did a LATINX Heritage Month

655
00:35:25,600 --> 00:35:28,000
Speaker 1: phase as well, but we looked at more so the

656
00:35:28,080 --> 00:35:31,520
Speaker 1: last decade. So this year we got more specific and

657
00:35:31,560 --> 00:35:35,600
Speaker 1: honed in on twenty twenty four and nobody come for us.

658
00:35:35,719 --> 00:35:40,400
Speaker 1: We know it's Latino Latina, not necessarily Hispanic, but you

659
00:35:40,440 --> 00:35:42,319
Speaker 1: know that's the designated national month.

660
00:35:42,560 --> 00:35:47,960
Speaker 2: So yes, Hispanic Heritage Month dot gov. We didn't it.

661
00:35:48,040 --> 00:35:53,839
Speaker 4: Okay, blame Lyndon Johnson and Ronald and Ronald.

662
00:35:53,560 --> 00:35:57,120
Speaker 1: Because he is the source of many of these countries

663
00:35:57,200 --> 00:35:58,279
Speaker 1: problems even now.

664
00:35:58,560 --> 00:36:01,040
