Episode Transcript

Speaker 1 (00:00):
I'm Corquarramos. This is the Moment, a new podcast from
my Heart Radio and Radio Bulante Studios, a space for
the conversations we've been having with each other for years
about this country, about our community, about what it means
to live through a time as uncertain as this one.

Speaker 2 (00:17):
So I've actually spent election night with mixed status families
in Arizona who were absolutely crushed by Trump's victory. But
then I spent an Inauguration Day at a party hosted
by Latino's directionists who were feeling something completely different. They
were elated by what they imagine was to come. These
last elections in a way confirm something that I've been
aware for a very long time know, and it's this

(00:38):
idea that Latinos are one of the most misunderstood and
complex communities in America. So what that means is that
we need deep conversations to help us understand what's happening.
So our new show, The Moment will be the home
for those conversations.

Speaker 1 (00:52):
But it's not a single day that Baoa and I
don't call or text each other, sharing news and thoughts
about what's happening in the The new podcast will be
a way to make that ongoing intergenerational conversation. Probably we'll
be interviewing some of the most significant voices in America today.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Do you ever feel demoralized?

Speaker 1 (01:12):
I might personally lose hope, but there's an institution that
doesn't lose fair and that's what I believe. Politicians, activists.

Speaker 2 (01:20):
I would be the first immigrant mayor in generations, but
forty percent of New Yorkers were born outside of this country.

Speaker 3 (01:27):
I've always presented myself as American first, recognizing that America kins,
the people that I care so much about, are in
a different situation than we've been.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
In in the past. Thinkers, writers, artists, Why.

Speaker 3 (01:39):
Did I allow that to happen? Why did we all
allow this? Because we didn't have data.

Speaker 2 (01:44):
We didn't know that we were twenty percent of the
population that we contribute four trillion dollars to the GDP.

Speaker 1 (01:51):
So, so how did you talk about drugs or sex
or equal sex? Sex? Right?

Speaker 2 (01:57):
Yeah?

Speaker 1 (01:59):
And known as conversation with a father and a daughter
too curious journalists, at times fighting to ask the next.

Speaker 2 (02:06):
Question, smarter, tougher questions. I come from a place of
deep curiosity about who we are and what it means
to be us in this moment.

Speaker 1 (02:14):
So you know my story. For thirty eight years, I
was a nightly news anchor, part of a team whose
job it was to report from across the US to
inform a Spanish speaking Latino audience. Now I'm an independent
journalist preven by a mission to help our community make
sense of this complicated counts.

Speaker 2 (02:32):
So we hope that you'll join us. Listen to the
