“I listen to your podcast regularly and I am glad you have returned with new episodes. However, what I heard in today’s show was appalling. Your guest claiming to be a “revolutionary Islamist” was nothing but a reactionary, bigoted, machista. He claimed the idea of American Muslims embracing...”Read full review »

Muchas gracias for the new format but more so for covering the border - the saddest story are the families that are dying and there’s literally no coverage in main stream media - btw - owned by white dudes- it is devastating and a disaster this country does not want to talk about...”Read full review »

“This show is where I get much of my news. I love Maria and Julio’s love for what they do, but moreover I love their love they show to everybody. They show this through who they choose to interview, the questions they ask, and the fact that they are aware that everybody is a whole person—emotions...”Read full review »

“Listening to a year in review and the comment that said that “In The Thick” was not to miss is spot on!
I subscribe to many podcasts but I rarely miss an episode of In The Thick. I learn so much every episode. Thank you for the multi-layered and multi-faceted commentary.”

“I love the way Maria and Julio keep reminding the listeners about how diverse the “Latinos” in the US are. I feel that because we tend to surround ourselves with people who think like us, we also apply that to the group in general. Anddddd we’re not a homogeneous group, ie floridians and rural...”Read full review »

“Ok, first off, I love you Julio and Maria and everything about ITT. I’ve been a faithful listener since 2019. Loved your POV as Latinos in the US, but today tengo que decirles esto. I also believe that -“We live in a culture that sees rest as weakness and working as strength. And our country’s...”Read full review »

The film of course shouldn’t be the only Puerto Rican representation. Latinxs still do not get hired in Hollywood outside of comedic and action...”Read full review »
