This week we’re deep in the early days of Castro’s Cuba — watching a revolutionary figure out he’s now got to actually run a country. We cover Castro’s sweeping reforms: dissolving Congress, banning political parties, freezing corrupt officials’ assets, and the messy reality of ruling from outside the government before finally taking the job of Prime Minister. Along the way, Cameron and Ray dig into why Latin America has never managed to unite against US interference — and why, in 2026, that failure is playing out in real time as Cuba goes dark.
