This week, the radiant and ridiculously talented Lauren Jauregui beams up to the mothership for a conversation that’s equal parts poetry, politics, and play. From Fifth Harmony phenom to fearless solo visionary, we dive deep into her evolution as a solo artist, the love laced through her lyrics, her fierce pride in her Latin roots, and the way she weaves advocacy into every fiber of her being. She gives us the scoop on her upcoming album, her soul-baring podcast, and what accountability, healing, and staying grounded in your truth really look like.

But don’t let the depth fool you—it’s also hilarious, playful, and wildly fun. Lauren isn’t just opening up; she’s kicking back with friends. This one feels less like an interview and more like you’re eavesdropping on your favorite group chat in outer space. Tune in for the laughter, the honesty, and the zero-gravity realness.

Featuring: Lauren Jauregui, Gemeny Hernandez, Emily Estefan

In this out-of-this-world episode of In Our Own World, we take a journey through memories, emotions, and cosmic wisdom with a special guest who’s no stranger to the spotlight. Becky G sits down with her real-life friends, our beloved Space Commanders, Em and Gem—and what unfolds is nothing short of magical.

From iconic first impressions and what they had to do with a Selena bustier, to the nerves that still sneak in before she hits the stage, Becky G gets raw and real. She shares a heartfelt message to her younger self, her honest definition of love, breaks down the deeply personal layers behind her latest albums, and sheds light on how she stays rooted while navigating the chaos of stardom. No filter, no front.

Things get unhinged when Becky G takes on a ridiculous accent challenge—while reading her own quotes. Southern belle? Check. Shakespearean actor? Check. It’s high art, really. Consider yourself warned.

This is Becky G unplugged, unfiltered, and completely unforgettable.

Tune in for big laughter, true vulnerability, and major inspo—this episode is a time capsule on friendship and a reminder that even the brightest stars are still human. 

Featuring: Becky G, Emily Estefan, Gemeny Hernandez

In this episode of In Our Own World, Emmy-nominated poet, performer, and playwright Christell Victoria Roach brings us into the heart of her process—where language meets lineage and spirit meets story. We explore the power of poetry as a living archive—a way to connect with ancestors, honor untold family stories, and breathe life into those who are no longer physically present. We dive into the tension between truth and storytelling—where Christell beautifully reflects the emotional honesty of Blueswomen and the blurred lines between fact and fiction. We reflect on public intimacy in art as an act of courage that invites others to see themselves reflected. Christell speaks to the power of love as a deliberate choice, and as the force that has sustained and strengthened the Black community through generations of hardship. From climbing trees as a child to read books to exploring archives in search of her Bahamian roots, to creating art to preserve memory and reclaim identity, this entire episode unfolds like a poem. Rich with rhythm, memory, and emotion as Christell weaves stories of ancestry, identity, and creativity with the kind of vulnerability that feels both personal and universal.

History loves to highlight the loudest voices—but so many brilliant women were the true architects behind revolutions in thought, science, and sound, only to be buried in the footnotes or erased entirely. In this episode, we bring light to the women whose legacies shaped the world—and yet, whose names remain forgotten by most. You’ll meet the woman who taught Socrates—yes, Socrates—laying the intellectual groundwork for Western philosophy. You’ll hear the story of a brilliant human computer whose calculations sent astronauts to the moon while NASA basked in the spotlight. We’ll amplify the legacy of a guitar-slinging powerhouse whose gritty, electrifying playing birthed what we now call rock and roll—long before the genre had a name, long before the men who got famous for her sound. And we'll honor the Mazatec mushroom priestess whose scared psilocybin ceremonies bridged ancient wisdom and modern psychedelic science. These incredible women weren’t just behind the scenes—they built the scenes. It’s time to remember them, honor them, and speak their names for all of the universe to hear.
