Bad Bunny is making major headlines this week as he kicks off his highly anticipated DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS World Tour. The Puerto Rican superstar launched the 56-date global tour on November 24th in the Dominican Republic, marking the beginning of what promises to be an epic journey across Central America, South America, Australia, Japan, and Europe.Just days after the tour's opening night, Bad Bunny shared an emotional message on social media reflecting on his deep connection with the Dominican Republic. The artist expressed gratitude for how Dominican audiences embraced him early in his career when he was just 22 years old with very few songs under his belt. He credited the island nation as the first country outside Puerto Rico that made him feel truly loved, supported, and understood through his music.The DeBÍ TiRAR MáS FOToS album, which dropped in January, continues to dominate conversations in the music industry. Bad Bunny recently won Album of the Year at the 2025 Latin Grammys for this deeply personal sixth studio album, marking his first win in this major category. The project showcases a more introspective side of the artist, with themes centered around nostalgia and preserving life's precious moments.Before launching the world tour, Bad Bunny completed what's being called the longest and most successful concert residency in Puerto Rico's history. The "No Me Quiero Ir De Aquí" residency at José Miguel Agrelot Coliseum brought in over 250 million dollars to the local economy and attracted more than 600,000 spectators across 31 shows. Celebrity attendees included Ricky Martin, LeBron James, and Benicio del Toro.Listeners, thank you for tuning in to this week's music news update.

Step into this raw and hilarious conversation with Planta Industrial, the Bronx based Dominican duo taking over timelines in a NY minute. They break down how they came together, their mission to go against the current, and how their Bronx and Dominican roots shaped their whole vision. They talk about going "viral overnight" after YEARS of grinding, how their community and the algorithm pushed them to the forefront , not the industry , and how Saso encouraged aka the darknight to step into his own as an artist after seeing his creative brilliance behind the scenes. The guys also share what’s next for 2026 , from their new distribution deal to striking gold with their first single “That’s My Bitch,” plus whether they ever worry about breaking up and why the industry plant rumors make them laugh. They dive into the rock bands, hip hop, and Dominican artists they grew up on , and how that fusion naturally created their Spanglish lane. And yes, we get into how they manifested a COLORS performance early in the game. Culture, brotherhood, manifestation, and momentum in one episode. Tap in before the world catches up. Their new EP 'Punk Waves Sin Barreras' is out now.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

H. C. C. Astwood: minister and missionary, diplomat and politician, enigma in the annals of US history. In Dominican Crossroads: H.C.C. Astwood and the Moral Politics of Race-Making in the Age of Emancipation (Duke UP, 2024), Christina Cecelia Davidson explores Astwood's extraordinary and complicated life and career. Born in 1844 in the British Caribbean, Astwood later moved to Reconstruction-era New Orleans, where he became a Republican activist and preacher in the African Methodist Episcopal (AME) Church. In 1882 he became the first Black man named US consul to the Dominican Republic. Davidson tracks the challenges that Astwood faced as a Black politician in an era of rampant racism and ongoing cross-border debates over Black men's capacity for citizenship. As a US representative and AME missionary, Astwood epitomized Black masculine respectability. But as Davidson shows, Astwood became a duplicitous, scheming figure who used deception and engaged in racist moral politics to command authority. His methods, Davidson demonstrates, show a bleaker side of Black international politics and illustrate the varied contours of transnational moral discourse as people of all colors vied for power during the ongoing debate over Black rights in Santo Domingo and beyond.

Once again, Bad Bunny is dominating music headlines and social media as his brand-new “Debí Tirar Más Fotos World Tour” launched with a pair of sold-out shows at Estadio Olímpico Félix Sánchez in Santo Domingo on November 21 and 22. According to a vivid recap from DropVibe, the kickoff event was electric, cementing Bad Bunny's reputation for turning concerts into full-blown cinematic experiences. The final act erupted with fireworks and confetti, fans singing along to every word, capturing the fusion of spectacle, community, and personal connection that defines his current era.Americanonewspaper.com reports that fans lined up hours before the gates opened and remained outside well into the concert amid access snafus—underscoring the feverish demand for tickets on this tour. Bad Bunny performed fan favorites like “Callaita,” “Baile Inolvidable,” “Tití Me Preguntó,” and “Yo Perreo Sola,” but also treated Dominican Republic listeners to exclusives including “25/8” and a collaborative performance with local dembow legend El Alfa. His setlist wove together tributes to Puerto Rico, emotional storytelling, and commentary on Caribbean life, reflecting the deeper, nostalgic tone of his upcoming album, also titled Debí Tirar Más Fotos.According to TheLagosReview and NME, that sixth studio album is officially set for release on January 5, 2026. Bad Bunny previewed the album's reflective spirit—centered on the importance of memory, photographs, and living in the present—in a video teaser featuring Puerto Rican filmmaker Jacobo Morales. Fans are also already spinning his new holiday single “Pitorro de Coco,” which infuses heartbreak into festive season traditions and showcases his range as both a vocalist and storyteller.LaMezcla.com confirms the world tour is set to take him across Latin America, Australia, and Europe well into next summer, with a historic nine-show run slated in Mexico City and performances in major cities from Sydney to Buenos Aires. Jointly, the tour marks yet another high in Bad Bunny's trajectory, building on streaming records and sold-out arenas: Billboard recently hailed him as the top Latin artist of the 21st century and Spotify's most-streamed Latin artist in 2024.Adding to the current media frenzy, The Guilfordian and StingerEHS report that Bad Bunny's cultural reach is about to take center stage in the U.S. as he has been tapped to perform at Super Bowl LX, sending waves across social media as fans react to the news and speculate about potential surprise guests or genre fusions.His popularity is so influential that Yale University is keeping its course dedicated to his music and impact, with CT Public noting that his ascent—from streaming icon to halftime headliner—continues to shape cultural conversations on and off campus.On Instagram and TikTok, excerpts from the Santo Domingo concerts, behind-the-scenes moments, and snippets of his newest tracks have racked up millions of views. Fans are dissecting the album teaser's themes and his interactions with Dominican fans, where he expressed heartfelt gratitude and called the Dominican Republic his second home. As tour dates continue to sell out and excitement for the album peaks, it's clear Bad Bunny remains not just a songwriter and performer, but a global cultural phenomenon whose every move sets trends and sparks conversation.Thanks for tuning in—be sure to come back next week for more updates on Bad Bunny and all things music, culture, and entertainment.

Welcome to a new edition of Vatican Insider on this penultimate weekend in November! My guests in the interview segment this weekend are Aidan Gallagher, head of EWTN Ireland, and Jesuit Fr. Bernard McCuckian, principal narrator of “The Kingship of Christ,” a documentary produced by EWTN Ireland.

The four parts explore the meaning and origins of the term “kingship” in Sacred Scripture, the nature of Christ's kingship, its rise to prominence in the 19th and 20th centuries, and how His reign continues to be realized in the world today.

Work-in-Progress talk with Alejandro Marin, PhD candidate, Romance languages, and 2025–26 Oregon Humanities Center Dissertation Fellow. Migration today is often framed as crisis, but literature reveals it as a site of creativity and resistance. Contemporary novels from Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Equatorial Guinea portray movement across borders as an opportunity to forge new communities and reimagine belonging. My research examines how these texts challenge dominant narratives of displacement, offering fresh insights into diaspora, kinship, and the politics of memory. I focus on three authors, Karla Suárez (Cuba), Juan Tomás Ávila Laurel (Equatorial Guinea), and Loida Maritza Pérez (Dominican Republic), who write from migrant, exilic, or diasporic postions, foregrounding solidarity with contemporary migrants and reconfiguring our understanding of migration through their work. The New Errancy illuminates the aesthetic, political, and cultural elements incorporated into these narratives, providing a more dynamic view of migration. These authors portray non-biological family formations, evolving family dynamics across generations, gendered dimensions of mobility, transnational and diasporic identities, and circular migration that frames return as feasible and meaningful. I primarily draw on Édouard Glissant's concepts of relation identity, circular nomadism, and errancy as rhizomatic practices; Stuart Hall's theories on cultural identity and diaspora; Luisa Campuzano's perspectives on uprooting and settlement; Michael Ugarte's critique of rigid categories like emigrant, immigrant, and exile; Remei Sipi Mayo's analysis of gender and migration; and Juan Flores's reflections on diaspora to trace transnational cultural practices linking origin and destination communities.

Step into a powerful, wide ranging conversation with actress and artist Jessica Pimentel, the Brooklyn born Dominicana whose talent and spirit stretch across continents and creative worlds. Known globally for her seven season role as Maria Ruiz on Orange Is the New Black, Jessica is a three time SAG Award winner, a classically trained musician, and the fierce female vocalist of the heavy metal band Brujeria. A graduate of NYC’s iconic High School of Performing Arts and the American Academy of Dramatic Arts, Jessica’s artistry runs deep. She sings, plays violin, guitar, and bass, and brings a level of discipline and soul shaped by her journey as a Tibetan Buddhist, a practice she embraced back in the 90s. In our interview, she opens up about growing up Dominican in Brooklyn, the path that led her from city blocks to global stages, and why Sweden stole her heart as she now splits her life between Switzerland and New York. We get into everything, from her family’s stories and political views to the healing work behind the scenes and why we really shouldn’t eat the mangoes. It’s culture, creativity, spirituality, music, and truth told with cariño.

Monday of the 31st Week in Ordinary Time Optional Memorial of St. Martin de Porres, 1579-1639; son of a black or indiginous freed woman of Peru and a Spanish Grandee; his parents never married, and Martin bore the appearance of his mother; his father abandoned the family, and Martin grew up in poverty; he became a lay helper for the Dominicans, who eventually asked him to make full religious profession; many of his nights were spent in prayer and penitential practices; his days were filled with nursing the sick and caring for the poor; he was instrumental in founding an orphanage, took care of slaves brought from Africa, and managed the daily alms of the priory; many of his fellow religious took Martin as their spiritual director, but he continued to call himself a “poor slave”; he was a good friend of another Dominican saint of Peru, Rose of Lima Office of Readings and Morning Prayer for 11/3/25 Gospel: Luke 14:12-14

What does it really mean to build freedom—not just wealth? In this inspiring conversation, Dr. Felecia Froe sits down with George Thomas, founder of Financial Freedom Builders, to explore the mindset, lessons, and disciplines that turn financial knowledge into a lasting legacy.   From humble beginnings as the son of Dominican immigrants to becoming a husband, father, and financial educator, George shares how breaking free from the "trade time for money" trap changed his life. He reveals the simple, often-overlooked truths about budgeting, mentorship, and the courage to invest, even when fear lingers. This episode is a reminder that financial freedom isn't about how much you earn, it's about how you think, what you keep, and who you become in the process.   00:00 – From Finance to Freedom: George's Story 05:22 – Childhood Lessons: Earning, Saving, and Sacrifice 12:17 – The Power of Mentorship and Coachability 19:13 – Investing for Time, Not Just Returns 27:00 – Mindset Over Money: How Beliefs Shape Wealth 34:09 – From Lessons to Legacy 44:10 – Purpose, Family, and the Freedom to Choose   Connect with George!

Bon, il y a un jeune français qui s'est fait arrêter à Saint-Domingue. Well, there's a young Frenchman who was arrested in Santo Domingo.Et la raison, c'est qu'il a essayé de passer une grosse quantité de cocaïne dans son corps. And the reason is that he tried to smuggle a large quantity of cocaine in his body.On parle d'un jeune de 19 ans, il avait avalé, écoutez bien, 1,6 kg de cocaïne. We're talking about a 19-year-old, he had swallowed, listen carefully, 1.6 kg of cocaine.C'est quand même énorme. That's quite enormous.Il a dû expulser 141 petits sachets, vous savez, en latex noir et bleu dans un centre médical après coup. He had to expel 141 small sachets, you know, in black and blue latex in a medical center afterwards.Les autorités dominicaines, la DNCD, c'est leur agence anti-drogue, pensent qu'il fait partie du trafic international lié à des réseaux criminels organisés. The Dominican authorities, the DNCD, which is their anti-drug agency, believe he is part of the international trafficking linked to organized criminal networks.Ces réseaux recrutent des passeurs, des mules, comme on dit, ils leur offrent de l'argent pour voyager jusqu'à Saint-Domingue où on leur fournit la drogue et ensuite, hop, direction les États-Unis ou l'Europe. These networks recruit smugglers, "mules," as they are called, they offer them money to travel to Santo Domingo where they are supplied with the drug, and then, hop, off to the United States or Europe.Faut bien voir que la République Dominicaine, c'est vraiment une plaque tournante majeure pour la cocaïne. It must be noted that the Dominican Republic is truly a major hub for cocaine.Ce n'est pas nouveau hein. It's not new, you know.Juste pour vous donner une idée, rien qu'en 2024, les autorités là-bas ont saisi plus de 37 tonnes de cocaïne.

In 1487 a scandal prone Dominican inquisitor published one of the most notorious witch-hunting manuals in history. The Malleus Maleficarum, or Hammer of the Witches, argued that Europe was under siege by witches and that these witches were almost exclusively female. The book was one of the first widely available texts that presented witchcraft as a uniquely female evil. By the end of 1500's women had become the main victims of the most outrageous witch-hunts, accounting for 85% of all people who executed as witches. Should the Malleus Maleficarum be blamed for this? Tune-in and find out how alewives, hot demons, and a "witch bull" all play a role in the story.Join us in Greece in 2026!

Mamá Tingó (1921-1974) was an Dominican activist who is often overlooked in historical accounts.

Hello Latino USA Listeners! We’re excited to share a special episode from our friend, Honey German from Gracias, Come Again. Honey sits down with the legendary Maria Hinojosa - an award-winning journalist whose career began in 1993 with one clear mission: to make Latinos visible. From her early days in radio to founding Futuro Media and leading Latino USA, Maria has spent decades amplifying our stories and holding power accountable. Maria opens up about her fight to ensure the current administration doesn’t silence her voice or her initiatives, why she and Futuro Media reject terms like “minority” and “illegal,” and why she’s calling on Latino journalists to take responsibility for how they represent our community in the news. As she reminds us, “Basic due process is being tested on our backs!” But it’s not all heavy they also share laughs about life with her Dominican husband, how she keeps herself fit and grounded, and the passion that continues to drive her work. This episode is both a masterclass in journalism and a powerful reminder of what it means to fight for visibility, dignity, and truth. ✊
