Bonus Show!  Hey, remember music videos? This is a special one, we’re going back to the early 00’s and dissecting one of my top 3 favorite music videos: You Don’t Know My Name.  We also reference heartbreak, Alicia Keys, Jabba, an empty piano store, love, 106 & Park, Charlie and the Chocolate Factory, Cooley High, the Pan Pan and throw in a little Pee Wee Herman.

Welcome to Season 5! In case the title didn't give it away, this is the cleaning show. We talmbout being forced to clean on school days off and the torture and long lasting effects of listening to your mom's cleaning music while the sam time acknowledging and respecting the reasons why. Two things can exist at the same time, like when Steve and Stefan slit and were two separate entitiessof...

Merry Christmas/ Feliz Navidad! We're back with a sequel talmbout 5 more annoying Christmas songs that should disappear like a snowman in late January. I wonder if Kwanzaa and Hanukkah have as many annoying songs. Anyway, more posadas, jingle bells, fish, Mickey, Yuri and of course, whimsical Latino experiences.

Happy Thanksgiving once again . In this EP, we talk about that one Full House Thanksgiving episode and how I would maybe last 5 minutes in it. This year, I hope you find yourself in a place to be safe, thankful and surrounded by love.

Happy Halloween! Listen as we discuss the top 8 cool spooky treats for 2025. There are some items from last year's list as well as some brand new treats this year. If you enjoy snacks and treats like I do, you'll want to listen to this one.

Our first proper Spoopy episode of the season examines how Jason Took Manhattan (Kinda) in Friday the 13Th VIII.

Happy end of Summer! We back with a Summerween recap so far, cringey high school memories and oh yeah, a little rant.

Yeahhhh, hi. Here's an update and a little spooky dust.

Renting physical movies at a physical place was a thing back in my day. Places like Blockbuster and VideoCentro were the "it" places. You know "da bomb", "all that and a bag of chips." They were "giving" joy. anyway, come listen to stories about these guys and my first Mexican nudity movie.

Fierro Pariente. Welcome to the new Season of A.L. Pod! I'm finna take you back to those sweet elementary school Valentime Day parties with the cards and snacks and fun! Also, how they helped shape the crazy thing I am today. Also, fruit punch...fruit punch.

Just look at this kid's face, you'll see what I mean. We close off 2024 by talmbout some irritating Xmas songs, plus Posadas, Nelson Muntz, Jose Alfredo Jimenez, Men's choirs, Daniela Romo as well as an epiphany that was realized while watching National Lampoon's Christmas Vacation. See? I'm not a Grinch ( all the time).

A live reaction to watching Garfield's Thanksgiving for the first time prefaced by little Thanksgiving notes. This episode contains hatred for a Mr. Jon Arbuckle.

We discuss the top 8 snacks and treats for Halloween 2024. Talmbout fast food, cereals, drinks and other goodies. See who take the title of best Halloween Treat. Will it be reigning champion Mc Donald's or will they be overthrown by a rookie? If you agree, you're welcome and if not, you're wrong but write us with your opinion.

Ever heard of the 1981 classic movie The Pit? Me neither but I am getting ready for spooky season and wanted to watch a horror movie. Intead, I don't know what this was but it's kind of silly. I recorded a little companion in case you end up watching it for some reason. It's a commentary track you can listen to even if you don't want to watch this cinematic masterpiece. Also this is our longest sh...

First of all, check out the fan art we received and made as the episode thumbnail. It's the clubbing sequel show we said we was doing. We talk about some of the comments we received on the first clubbing episode as well as recall stories from my clubbing days past.

It’s Summertime again and that means another little show about this pre- Halloween season.  This year we talk about THE quintessential Summer movie, The Sandlot.  Don’t be an L7 Weenie and take a little break listening to some silly Summer memories.  

Yes, the title is a Seinfeld thing. Anyway, today we talk about the magic of going clubbing in the 90's and 2000's. The reasons why, dancing primarily I guess but there are certain things that are low key sus. I play bits of some bangers, hip hop, rock en espanol, 80's, paisa and more! Count how many times I say"bangers" in this episode. Nostalgia is great.

The 90's were a great era for movies aimed at teenagers. Can't Hardly Wait is now a cult classic but how relatable is it to the rest of us? We examine this, Luhtinos, hot chicks as well as do a little recap in case you were not alive when it came out or have not seen it.

The Mc Donald's that existed in the 80's and 90's was very different than the one we go to now. Remember when Happy Meal commercials and Saturday morning cartoons were one and the same? Listen to a little bit of history of Mc Donaldland commercials, Batman and a long lasting traumatic experience with Birdie at Mc Donald's.

Welcome to Season 3! Come re-live the fun and excitement that was the mall. Old stores, fun with friends, puppies and getting mistaken for gang members.

It's that time, Christmastime is here.. but also posadas and late night Christmas Eve celebrations. In this show, we talk about what exactly the difference is between Noche Buena (Christmas Eve) and the more traditional American Christmas Day. Also, a hot take on a popular food.

Rudolph the Red nosed reindeer shines his way on to the last episode of 2023, Listen to his story from a cute Latino point of view featuring Gene Autry, Los Tigers Del Norte, Dean Martin and Los Dos Carnales. The DMX version deserves its own episode tho.

In our last spooky episode for the year, we talk about 2023's Halloween Treats and snacks. cereals, cookies, bottles and other neat treats we saw the year. Also, a little Friday the 13th.

As we get closer to Halloween, we revisit one of the if not the best Halloween specials, It's the Great Pumpkin Charlie Brown! Listen as I react and talk about this animated treasure live as I watch it. Isn't Halloween nostalgia great?

Let's remember how awesome trick or treating during Halloween or Summerween was. Except whenyou get disgusting, gross candy. Let's talk about it.
