Las Paleteras

Hola Paletitas! This week’s episode is going to be a throwback to one of our favorite episodes in Season 1 where we dive deep into the multifaceted world of relationships and situationships. From singlehood to the Putivuelta phase, we’re unpacking it all.

Are you living your best monogamous life, or does polyamory pique your interest? Together, we’ll explore some thought-provoking questions. We’ll reflect on our first experiences with love (Cuándo fue la primera vez que te enamoraste?) and compare how our understanding of love and relationships has evolved.

We’ll also chat about what it means to love, including attachment styles, the lessons learned from being a toxica, and redefining love as we grow and mature. As we close, your hosts will share their aspirations and dreams for future explorations of love and relationships. Whether in love, out of love, or somewhere in between, there’s a little something for everyone in this episode. 

Las Paleteras is produced by Joel Ruiz and Elpidio Perez along with the hosts. Editorial support from Augusto Martinez, Music by Cinthya Morado and Ingrid Guijarro and additional visual support from Chavelita. Special thanks to our friends at mitú and Sonoro Media for distribution and production support.

Holi holi, Paletitasssss!! We’re back! Season 3 is officially here, and we couldn’t be more excited to kick things off with you. We know the world feels a little chaotic right now, so consider this your safe space, a place to unwind, laugh, and just be.

In this episode, we share life updates since wrapping Season 2 and take a trip down memory lane to revisit some of our most questionable (and iconic) fashion choices. From trends we thought we absolutely ate to looks we’d rather forget, nothing is off-limits. Expect plenty of laughs, a little nostalgia, and maybe even a few confessions.

So get comfy, press play, and welcome back—Season 3 is just getting started! Make sure to tell your tias, primas, and friends to tune in on their favorite streaming platform, and don’t forget to leave us a rating!

Holi holi Paletitas! This week we’re breaking down PRIDE—the good, the bad, and the corporate AF. Is it still about protest, or just puro party pa’ los cis white gays? 

Tus comadres favoritas—César, José Richard aka Nalgona, y Ana Sheila—get into it with chisme, hot takes, and a whole lot of cariño for our queer community. From first Pride stories to Dyke March highlights, and even shouting out organizations like the Trans Latina Coalition, we’re asking: Have we lost our way… or are we still finding new ones?

DICEN POR AHÍ: Pride is just gay desmadre on display. True or nah?

Main convo: Pride memories, critiques, and hopes for the future of queerness.

Mete o Saca: What are we letting go and what are we inviting in this Pride season?

And yes, Pride can be a fiesta—but it’s also resistencia. And we’re here for both!

Listen now on YouTube, Spotify, and Apple Podcasts.Tell us in the comments: ¿Qué significa PRIDE pa’ ti?

Y recuerden que la vida es más sabrosa con nosotras porque somos, LAS PALETERAS!

¿Quién nos enseñó sobre sexo queer? (Spoiler: casi nadie.) In this juicy episode, tus comadres favoritas—César, José Richard aka Nalgona, y Ana Sheila—dive into all the stuff we should’ve learned but had to figure out en las calles, en el internet, o en el chisme.

We unpack where we learned about sex (if at all), the role of queer media in our sexual coming-of-age, and what we’ve taught—or wish we’d been taught—about consent, pleasure, hygiene, and queerness.

Plus: In our Mete o Saca segment, we share what we’re letting go and what we’re inviting in. So grab your paleta and tell us: ¿qué estás metiendo o sacando tú?

Raw, real, and picante como tamarindo con chamoy—this one’s for every paletita who’s still unlearning shame and reclaiming pleasure.

¡Hola Paletritas! This week, we’re diving into summer love—the messy, the magical, and the downright ridiculous. From America’s current obsession with Love Island to decoding our own love languages, we’re bringing all the feels. And of course, we’re spilling the hottest tea in our no-holds-barred segment, "La Mamada de la Semana."

This week on Las Paleteras, we’re diving into something many queer folks know all too well—internalized queerphobia. That sneaky inner voice shaped by years of societal shame, machismo, religious guilt, and the pressure to “blend in.” But don’t worry, como siempre, we get into it con cariño… y un poquito de desmadre!

Joining us is the brilliant Luis Cornejo (@luis_thee_lmft) — Licensed Marriage & Family Therapist, Certified Sex Therapist, and founder of PsychoSocial Therapy. Luis brings their insight as a healer and advocate to unpack the layers of internalized queerphobia, from childhood survival instincts to dating dynamics and the pain of gender nonconformity rejection within our own communities.

Plus: — Chismecito callejero in our Dicen Por Ahí segment — Honest reflections on our first brushes with self-shame — A powerful convo about healing, grace, and letting go — Our signature Mete o Saca to close things out with intention
