What I told people I was making a podcast about Benghazi. Nine times out of ten, they called me a masochist, rolled their eyes, or just asked, why? |
| 0:47.0 | Benghazi, the truth became a web of lies. |
| 0:50.0 | From prologue projects and pushkin industries, this is Fiasco, Benghazi. |
| 0:56.0 | What difference at this point does it make? |
| 0:59.0 | Listen to Fiasco, Benghazi, on the iHeartRadio app, Apple podcasts, or wherever you get your podcasts. Hello, I'm Jorge Ramos. And this is the moment. The moment. And case you don't know, by the way, Jorge is my dad. And I'm Pablo's father. This is a very, very first time that we are working together. In English with an accent. That's right. But look, in all seriousness, this is a space we hope where we get to do exactly this. No two journalists who are father and daughter, two people who grew up in two very different generations, get get to do what we love most, which is being conversation with some of the best thinkers out there, activists, artists, other journalists, people that make us think and that lead us to have profound, deep, thought-provoking conversations. And whenever there's a Latino issue, we want to discuss it right here. |
| 2:05.0 | And also we call it the moment because I honestly believe in Paulo that in just a few years, people are going to ask us, what did you do during those years? And this is our answer. This is what we did. Asking questions, tough questions, challenging power. Particularly at a time where Latinos and immigrants continue to be one of the most misunderstood folks out there. And so we hope that this helps us all understand |
| 2:26.6 | what it means to be Latino |
| 2:28.1 | and what it means to be an immigrant in this moment and that we really start to make sense of what this country is going through. People might not realize but we talk to each other many, many times during the day, we take each other, we talk about news and basically we're just moving that conversation from the cell phones to this podcast. |
| 2:45.6 | Another thing that people don't know is that beyond you and I talking all the time, which to this day, I don't know, if that's weird or not, we do. I don't even think it is. It may be normal, but you and I grew up a part, or I guess I grew up, I spent most of my childhood in Madrid living in Spain across the Atlantic ocean. That was very difficult. I spent almost 13 years away from you. |
| 3:07.0 | And I mentioned this because in a way, yes, this podcast will be about politics. Yes, it will be about understanding the Trump administration. It will be about us. It will be about current affairs, but it will also be, I think, our way to take back time. That's to maybe have some of those conversations, those more vulnerable conversations we didn't get to talk talk about. So yes, we'll intertwine all of it and we invite everyone to be part of this space, to be part of this conversation, to make us think, to push back, debate with us, and more than anything learned from our guests. So this is the moment, but also this is our moment. For our very first episode, we want to have a conversation about what political change |
| 3:45.6 | looks like in the country. |
| 3:46.6 | But I think more than anything about what the type of change people are ready or not ready to embrace in this moment. To do that, I actually want to take people to New York City. When I think of New York City, that I remember the very first time I came to the city as a college student. One of the reasons why I found the love in New York City |
| 4:05.2 | is because it was diverse, it was progressive, |
| 4:08.1 | you had people that looked like me, |
| 4:09.7 | and it was diverse, it was progressive, you had people that looked like me, and it was dreamy, it was everything that I wanted in the city. It has become your city. It has become my city, but this is why it is then shocking to kind of look at the November 2024 election results. When you see in those numbers is that if you zoom in, actually New York City saw one of the highest right-ward shifts in the country. So what I'm talking about is this fact that if you zoom in to neighborhoods across New York City, you look at the Bronx, you look at the Upper West side, you look at these traditionally democratic bastions. Donald Trump made significant inroads there. He was very hard to believe. Very hard to believe and he made inroads and very heavy, let you know, in immigrant neighborhoods. And so in the middle of this picture, where you see Donald Trump's rightward shift across the nation, giving him of course his profound and resounding victory in the middle of that story, something else happens. And that is that this summer, the underdog in New York City's Democratic primary, a 33 year old self-described Democratic Socialist, whose parents are immigrants, this person shocks the nation. He shocks the Democratic Party. He shocks Donald Trump when he suddenly beats Andrew Komo. Well, Paula, he did more than that. He managed to reverse Trump's trend, winning a lot of voters from Latino communities, working class communities and communities of color across New York City, that the Trump campaign targeted. So we're talking about the New York City candidate for mayor, Soran Mamdani. And that is exactly what is at the heart of this episode. Now this one question does the Mamdani campaign represent a new kind of path for the Democratic Party? Or perhaps a question is, is the party ready for him? After a break, we'll be right back with Soran Mamdani. Football is back. That's right, the new NFL season is here and you should be listening to NFL Daily as we march along to Super Bowl 60 this is a show for sickos like me NFL Daily's you're kind of show it's in the name NFL daily you have fresh content in your feed all season long myself Greg Rosenthal and an all-star cast of co-host will preview and recap every game all season long Josh Josh Allen coming off an MVP season. |
