    Sep 6 2024
    Thirty years later, Selena’s magnum opus remains as relevant as ever. This week, we’re re-running a deep dive we did on this seminal album with the one and only Favy Fav. Co-host of Latinos Who Lunch and a dear friend of the podcast, artist Favy Fav is a MAJOR Selena stan. We get at the biggest hits, a few of the deep cuts, and revisit all of what makes Selena one of the greatest Latinx artists of all time. Featuring music by Selena.

  • Ep 260: The Border
    Aug 30 2024
    The US-Mexico border is many things: a divisive political fact, a total fiction, home to many Latinx people and an arena of major cultural influence. For today’s episode, we take a look at some of the music that has arisen from this part of the country, and the social and political forces that influence life and art in this liminal space. Featuring music by Gaytan y Cantu, Los Tigres del Norte, Freddy Fender, Selena, Chalino Sanchez, Ariel Camacho y Los Plebes del Rancho, Natanael Cano, Bad Bunny, Los Tremendos Gavilanes.
