  • Light on new Selena insights 🥺

    The series seemed promising, but really didn’t give new or insightful information about Selena. It always went back to the perspective of the producer and racial identity. In a series about Selena, I wanted to learn more about her, the family, and their lives. She was unique and irreplaceable, but that was lost in the way the podcast storyline always swung back to race. Why not include more of the interview from the father, especially when you spend so much time explaining how difficult it was t... more

  • Loved this whole series, pero dónde está los episodios en español?

    This series was amazing, loved every bit of it and listened when it was first released. As a child growing up close to Mexican culture in the 90s I really connected with the host and story.

    I am now working on my Spanish and remembered that there were episodes in Spanish that would be good to listen to for practice, but I can’t find them anymore? Are they gone? Estoy triste! Would love access to those if possible! 😭
