We revisit a conversation that Rick Sanchez had with his old friend, comedian Carlos Mencía, where they covered a variety of Latino Truths and topics. From the negative stereotypes in Hollywood to being excluded from the national conversation, and even to the lack of Latino Superheroes. Mencía was very forthcoming and honest about the joke-stealing scandal that rocked, and almost ended his career 16 years ago and how he struggled and fought to overcome it. Sanchez and Mencía concluded that outliers like them always seem to land on their feet after setbacks like this because it is a part of their DNA to have to fight and work hard for everything they have.
