En este episodio, hablamos sobre los algoritmos y cómo estos influyen en nuestras vidas y decisiones a diario. Desde personalizar lo que vemos en redes sociales hasta crear “echo chambers” que limitan nuestra exposición a nuevas ideas. En este episodio hablamos de algunos de los pros y los contras de esta tecnología. And while it's true that los latinos consumimos contenido muy variado, I still share a few ideas on how to diversify the content we consume and our info sources even more. 

No se pierdan este “inch deep” dive into how algorithms shape our digital experience y cómo podemos navegar mejor este landscape para que nos controlen menos. ¡Join me para una conversación súper interesante!

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
