Gustavo Arellano is an award winning journalist and author from Orange County, CA. His written works and voice have been read, heard and debated all over Southern California on NPR, the Tom Leykis Show, his own "Gritale a Guti" Instagram live sessions and much more. He currently can be read weekly in the pages and online with the Los Angeles Times and always has a million cool things to talk about - which makes my job that much easier. This episode covers Gustavo's personal history, the state of media, politics, Gwen Stefani, his critics, wokosos, his forecast for the 2024 election year - AND of course the infamous "Flamin' Hot" story. It's all here and uncensored. Happy New Year, gentle cabrones! Subscribe to Gustavo's Weekly Desmadre Newsletter at: https://www.gustavoarellano.org/
