Rediscovering Latinidad is made with love and dedication to the art of family history. Too often the search for family history can seem Eurocentric and inefficient for those identifying as Latiné, LatinX, and anywhere in between. Let’s share our stories, our resources, and discuss why this all matters. In the search for who we are, we can understand more from our ancestors and their stories.

25 DEC 2025 · This Navidad, we dedicate a special episode to Bad Bunny (Benito Antonio Martínez Ocasio), not just as a global superstar, but as a cultural force whose music, imagery, and presence have reshaped Latinidad on a world stage.
We begin with “Debí Tirar Más Fotos”, a song steeped in nostalgia, regret, and memory... we trace Bad Bunny’s full musical journey to global tours, genre-defying albums, and unapologetic cultural representation. We talk about how Bad Bunny’s music feels like family; how it sounds like home, like grief, like joy, like rebellion, like love. How his work captures what it means to be Latino in this moment: proud, complicated, joyful, wounded, loud, and still dancing.
This Navidad episode is a celebration of music as cultural archive, of lyrics as living genealogy, and of Bad Bunny as a reminder that Latinidad doesn’t ask for permission: it exists, loudly and beautifully, on its own terms.

19 DEC 2025 · Content Warning: This episode discusses sexual assault, coercion, intimate partner violence, and abuse of power.
In this season’s true-crime episode, we approach the Sean “Diddy” Combs case with intention, care, and accountability, centering support for Cassie Ventura, a survivor (And part mexicana!) whose courage in coming forward disrupted decades of silence around one of the most powerful figures in entertainment.
While we stand firmly in support of Cassie, this episode spends much of its time unpacking Diddy’s actions, patterns, and alleged crimes,not to amplify his name, but to examine how power, wealth, celebrity, and systemic protection allow abuse to persist unchecked.

12 DEC 2025 · On today's episode we discuss A God of Moonlight and Stardust by Mina Brower, , a Mexican American author whose work weaves together myth, memory, longing, and cultural inheritance. Through lyrical prose and emotionally resonant storytelling, Brower explores how identity is shaped not only by the present, but by what we inherit: stories, silences, belief systems, and ancestral echoes.

5 DEC 2025 · On today's episode, we dive into Upon Entry, a tense and unforgettable film that captures a reality many immigrants know too well: the moment when crossing a border becomes an interrogation, and being “let in” depends on your ability to prove your worth, your innocence, or your humanity.
Upon Entry follows a Venezuelan-Spanish couple hoping to begin a new life in the United States, only to be pulled into a secondary inspection room where every detail of their lives, intentions, and identities is scrutinized. What unfolds is a psychological unravelling that echoes countless stories across the Latino diaspora: fear of authority, the weight of paperwork, the vulnerability of being at someone else’s mercy, and the trauma hidden in the simple act of arrival.

30 OCT 2025 · This week, we're looking at the fascinating lives of medieval queens and princesses, royal genealogy, and Queenship Studies! We talk with two historians: Dr. Ellie Woodacre, Reader of Renaissance History at the University of Winchester and host of the "Royal Studies Podcast," and Susan Abernethy, creator of "The Freelance History Writer" blog. We also hear how co-hosts Briar and Edward found distant links to Iberian royals, disprove the notion of "blue blood," and learn why, if you have medieval European ancestors, it's likely some of them were royal.
