Thank you for mentioning Lopez Obrador and Claudia Sheinbaum. As an avid listener to podcasts such as Breaking/Counter Points, Bad Faith and the like I have been metaphorically yelling at you, my favorite hosts, to talk about what is going on in Mexico. It is impressive and I for one find inspiration in watching las Mañaneras where Claudia answers questions directly, with complete command of the facts for over an hour every single day. When you compare that performance to Kamala's superficial word salads you realize what a low bar we have set for leadership in this country. Morena a new party only 10 years old has won two presidential elections and majorities in both houses in Congress, not to mention changing their constitution to incorporate judicial reform (ding, ding, ding, ding!!) In the last 6 years AMLO and now Claudia have raised the minimum wage, strengthened universal healthcare, supported a social safety net, built infrastructure like passenger rail, hospitals and airports (not to mention a plan to build a million new homes), subsidized energy and implementing a green transition. We need to look outside of our distorted fish bowl and realize there is a whole world of opportunities out there! Check out the English language podcast, Soberanía for news about what is happening in México.
Thanks for the reccomendation. Already added it to AntennaPod. I was wondering, though, do you know of any similar type podcast in Spanish covering politics in Latin America from a populist left perspective?
The creators of Soberanía have just begun a new project in Spanish called Sin Muros. Also, I recommend the YouTube channel Canal Red that includes many programs that talk about Latin American politics. I have also recently begun listening to the podcaster Diego Ruzzarin.
Dude, I've been listening to Soberanía every week since you recommended it. Checking out Sin Muros and some of their other stuff as well. Will definitely be looking at the others you mentioned here too.
