Why is it important to protect yourself online? Sam and Sandra discuss the recent scrutiny on data obtained through social media like Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. There has been a large history of surveillance on communities of color and technology only makes it easier. Prepare your fave tinfoil hat for this episode!

Are we going to play Korean-Pop two weeks in a row? We sure are! This week Sandra interviews Lucía from Tampa, Florida. Sandra connected to Lucía because of K-Pop, but learned so much more about growing up Guatemalan in Florida, her conversion to Islam and opening up over Caso Cerrado. Get ready for a lengthyyyyy discussion over K-Pop stan accounts, fan culture, and the K-Pop industrial complex.

Hello~ This week we're answering q's we were sent! We talk about fake stanning, getting into a fight, books we want to read. Its great to just chill and be a bit more open about ourselves. Lol.

We're speaking off the dome! Sam and Sandra have been real busy and they just wanted to relax and talk about multiple identities or personas that we hold. The conversation goes many directions especially in how the internet has allowed us to live an additional life.

This week we are so honored to have Sophia, the creator of the @osothebosso Instagram bi-lingual tenants rights novela, to educate us on tenants rights in Los Angeles. We also have long discussions surrounding grassroots organizing, gentrification, gentefication, homeownership, and homeslessness. Sophia is so amazing and y'all should keep up with her!

We have the 2nd installment of our mini-series featuring Central Americans from non-Central American hubs. Oliva is a PhD Immunology candidate at UMass Medical. Olivia has a full Massuchusetts identity and we use her amazing achievements to discuss misogyny in post-graduate education, the best affordable pallette, and the Salvadoran Seventh Day Adventist identity.

This is another hot take. We relate Naruto to Toxic Masculinity, but we also go into the real effects it has on our personal lives and the world around us. CW: Conversations about sexual trauma, violence, and extremism.

Hi y'all we're starting a new series on our show based on the diaspora outside of typical Central American hubs like California, Houston, or Washington D.C. We will be interviewing and getting to just hang out with Central Americans all over to establish relationships and friendships. However, the interviews will be one on one with either Sam or Sandra each episode. The first person we're hanging out with is Patrick Mullen-Coyoy! He is a poet and is often on #CentralAmericanTwitter and beautifully describes his love for his queerness, Michigan, and Chapingo hertitage. Patrick also hits on a great point in the importance of a central archiving for cultural works from the Central American diaspora.

Sam and Sandra are SOOOOO excited to start their engines for the new season of Rupaul's Drag Race All Stars. Before Sam and Sandra toot and boot the entrance looks or go into show predictions, they talk about the herstory of drag. They go into the important role of trans folx of color and the legacy Rupaul has left on drag.

We love our long episodes so were giving you more! We both just graduated from college and now being out for 6 months into the "working world", we look back. Drugs, sex, love, yt experimentation, and how univesities fail students of color.
