Tony talked with actor, voice performer, and entrepreneur Carlos Navarro — a multi‑hyphenate talent whose journey spans blockbuster franchises, hit television, radio, and now his own creative studio.

Navarro is best known to The Walking Dead fans as Alvaro, a loyal member of King Ezekiel’s army during the Kingdom’s pivotal battles. His grounded, human performance helped bring emotional weight to one of the show’s most community‑driven storylines.

Marvel fans will also recognize him as Enrique, one of the unforgettable Tracksuit Mafia members in Hawkeye. Navarro brings humor, menace, and surprising heart to the role, adding texture to one of the MCU’s most memorable street‑level ensembles.

This episode of Rewind dives into one of the most thoughtful and emotionally resonant sci‑fi dramas of the last decade: Humans, the AMC/Channel 4 series adapted from the Swedish original Real Humans. More than a story about robots, the show became a mirror—reflecting our fears, our hopes, and the fragile boundaries of what we call humanity.

Set in a near‑future where lifelike androids known as Synths become part of everyday life, Humans explored the ripple effects of artificial consciousness on families, society, and identity. It asked the questions that linger long after the credits roll: If machines can think and feel, what does that mean for us? What remains uniquely human?

The series didn’t just speculate about AI—it held up a lens to our own behavior. It examined:

The ethics of creating life in our image

The consequences of outsourcing emotional labor

The tension between technological progress and human compassion

The fear of being replaced—by machines or by each other

At its core, Humans argued that the arrival of artificial beings forces us to confront our own humanity. The Synths may have been designed to serve, but their awakening revealed how easily we overlook the dignity of others when it’s convenient.
