Co-hosts John and Junior talk progressive politics, music and whatever else comes up. In this inaugural episode Junior, a Cuban-American, tells stories about what life is really like on the island he used to call home, his political awakening, and his many attempts to escape. It's one part Gilligan's Island, one part Casablanca, complete with a six-month stint at pre-9/11 Guantanamo Bay. What are American journalists on the left getting wrong about the Castro regime, and how does this relate to their reporting on the current crisis in Venezuela?
