Jessica Fuentes, William Sarradet, and Nicholas Frank discuss their recent visit to the Rio Grande Valley, including stops in Laredo, San Ygnacio, McAllen, Harlingen, and Brownsville.
“One of the things that often marks our time in the Valley — and similar regions — is that the communities there are so tightly knit and welcoming. Every time we go to the Panhandle, to East Texas, to West Texas, to the Valley, we are met with these really beautiful, intimate moments where people are open and willing to share.”

Jessica Fuentes and Gabriel Martinez talk about the book Monsters: A Fan's Dilemma and some of the cultural creatives who have committed monstrous crimes.
"There aren't good celebrities and bad celebrities. They're all just people. There is a spectrum of behaviors with people. There's nobody that's purely good, and there are maybe a few people who are purely evil, but it's rare. It's kind of ridiculous to assume that any person is going to always be good. I don't say that to excuse any of these truly heinous and criminal behaviors. I don't think they should be excused... I think that it's foolish to uplift a celebrity and expect a certain standard of behavior."
