Durante la presidencia de Allende, en Chile, trataron de diseñar un sistema cibernético que serviría para gestionar la economía chilena: se llamaba Proyecto Cybersyn. Nosotros escuchamos esta historia en dos episodios de otros podcasts y quedamos con la lengua picada porque cuando se habla del proyecto, tiende a dejarse la pregunta abierta «¿será que Cybersyn hubiera funcionado?» Y nosotros creemos que esa pregunta tiene una respuesta.

Are You A Charlotte?
In 1997, actress Kristin Davis’ life was forever changed when she took on the role of Charlotte York in Sex and the City. As we watched Carrie, Samantha, Miranda and Charlotte navigate relationships in NYC, the show helped push once unacceptable conversation topics out of the shadows and altered the narrative around women and sex. We all saw ourselves in them as they searched for fulfillment in life, sex and friendships. Now, Kristin Davis wants to connect with you, the fans, and share untold stories and all the behind the scenes. Together, with Kristin and special guests, what will begin with Sex and the City will evolve into talks about themes that are still so relevant today. "Are you a Charlotte?" is much more than just rewatching this beloved show, it brings the past and the present together as we talk with heart, humor and of course some optimism.
