You wanna talk about monuments!? Well guess what, Mimi...WE DID! This week FavyFav and Babelito discuss the terrorist attack in Charlottesville through a conversation surrounding the history of monuments and their function in society. From statues of Christopher Columbus in Puerto Rico, to university mascots around the country, monuments preserve a very selective history that must be challenged. All white supremacists monuments must fall!!!

For this very special bonus episode, LWL rebroadcast their guest-spot on Morado Lens, one of their favorite Latinx podcasts. Cindy and Nat created a platform to share real and sometimes taboo conversations with their Latinx and fellow Bruja audience. Las chicas de Morado engage in a very interesting discussion with FavyFavy and Babelito about cultural appropriation, faux-woke culture, and the importance of recording their podcasts face to face. LWL confront the rise and fall of their inner brujos and ponder the inclusion of ketchup in ceviche. 

Rudy Bleu

Rudy Bleu has been creating spaces for the queer punk Latinx youth in Cali for many years, and after some bomb tacos he sits with LWL to talk about his legacy in the City of Angels.

As Favy wakes up form his taco induced coma, and Babelito ponders his future as a DJ, Rudy tells us about the first time he met Morrisey, his love for Los Bukis, and recommends some amazing music.
