ABOUT THIS EPISODE

Finally, we're back with a brand new episode, inspired by Bad Bunny's love letter to Puerto Rico, Debí Tirar Más Fotos! We get deep into the weeds of the Puerto Rican musical and political traditions that are referenced in Bad Bunny's wide-ranging, exquisitely produced album. Joining Rebecca are Puerto Rican musician and educator Hector Lugo (founder of the Bay Area Latin roots band La Mixta Criolla), and Puerto Rican writer, translator and Bad Bunny scholar Carina del Valle Schorske.

Songs played:

A Guayama, Desde Cero

Si Yo Fuera Alcalde, Chuíto el de Bayamón

Aires de Navidad, Hector Lavoe & Willie Colón

La Huelga, La Mixta Criolla
