In this exclusive preseason interview, Big Brother winner Josh Martinez joins host Sharon Tharp just days before handing over his phone and entering Telemundo's La Casa de los Famosos. Josh opens up about why he turned down major projects like The Challenge 42 to pursue his dream of breaking into the Latin market, his strategy for the high-stakes public vote, and the anxiety of returning to 24/7 live feeds for a grueling 17-week Spanish-language version of what he calls "The Hunger Games."

  Host: Scott Stoner, Episcopal pastor and licensed marriage and family therapist Episode Summary Recorded the day before Ash Wednesday, this introductory episode launches the Lenten podcast series centered on the theme Cultivating Healing and Wholeness with All Your Heart, Soul, Strength, and Mind. Scott reflects on what it means to tend to our whole selves during the 47 days of Lent, drawing on his 40 years of experience as pastor and therapist. Key Themes Scott opens with a simple but powerful question: When was the last time someone genuinely asked how you're doing? He invites listeners to treat Lent as an annual spiritual check-up — an unhurried season to reflect on body, mind, heart, and soul. Healing, he suggests, is less like a lightning bolt and more like tending a fire: patient, gentle, and attentive. The Ash Wednesday words "Remember that you are dust" are framed not as shame but as an invitation to humility and openness. He also introduces the Living Compass model of well-being — four quadrants (Heart, Soul, Strength, Mind) with eight dimensions of wellness — and reminds listeners that wellness begins with "we." Resources Mentioned Daily readings booklet — PDF download or daily emails available at livingcompass.org Living Compass App — search "Living Compass" in your app store or visit app.livingcompass.org; includes guided Lenten meditations; free trial for one year, then $10/year Spanish-language content — daily reflections by Estela Lopez and Pedro Lopez (Bruja La De Vida), PDF available at livingcompass.org and posted daily on the Bruja La De Vida Facebook page During This Series Two new podcast episodes will be released each week throughout Lent. Blessings on your Lenten journey.

That's it, we're hiring a stripper for Vanessa. We did an AMA with Alejandro aka 'Kreme' or 'The Biggest Mexican,' where we learned about safe words, horny moms, sleeping with clients and even performing for someone's last day on earth. Vanessa definitely got horny and we're thinking he's the perfect thing for her upcoming birthday... The love theme continued when we heard from a phone sex operator during the Hoe-lympics, where we heard people's biggest sex accomplishments. We also heard a couple's secret to longevity in a romantic Old People Secrets! We also heard Ally attempt to order in Spanish at a local drive through (Ella tiene muchos gatos!), listened back to a Kevin & Bean highlight with the late Reverend Jesse Jackson, and someone on the show finally QUITS their forced resolution.

The episode opens with an emotional look into Jamie Foxx’s new breakup‑inspired single “Somebody”, which he revealed was fueled by a painful Valentine’s Day split with a Spanish-speaking ex—a heartbreak he said “messed [him] up,” as he described blinking and still seeing her face.

The episode opens with an emotional look into Jamie Foxx’s new breakup‑inspired single “Somebody”, which he revealed was fueled by a painful Valentine’s Day split with a Spanish-speaking ex—a heartbreak he said “messed [him] up,” as he described blinking and still seeing her face. Meanwhile, the team dives into the online uproar surrounding Michael Jordan’s viral Daytona 500 moment, where footage showed him pinching and tapping Tyler Reddick’s young son; although critics called it inappropriate, new context and closer footage suggest he was likely removing ice that had fallen into the child’s clothing during the chaotic celebration. The show also takes time to honor the profound legacy of Rev. Jesse Jackson, who passed away at 84 and is being celebrated nationwide as a towering civil rights leader, global activist, and inspiration whose decades of work—from marching with Dr. King to running historic presidential campaigns—reshaped American politics and expanded pathways for future Black leaders. The episode closes with a high‑energy highlight as J. Cole continues popping up on HBCU campuses—including Howard, Hampton, and North Carolina A&T—to personally deliver his new album The Fall Off directly from the trunk of his Honda Civic, creating nostalgic, fan‑packed moments reminiscent of his early career hustling CDs hand‑to‑hand.

We break down what a piropo actually is and why it's more than just a romantic line — it's a mix of language, humor, and culture. We share cute, funny, and cheesy examples you might hear in movies or conversations, and we also explain the street piropos you should understand but probably never use. Most importantly, we help you learn the social rules behind them so you don't accidentally sound rude or awkward while speaking Spanish. By the end, you'll not only recognize these expressions in real life and media, but you'll also know how to navigate flirting and compliments in a culturally respectful way.Key Takeaways:A piropo can be romantic, funny, or inappropriate depending on context and relationship.Some traditional street compliments are outdated and may be offensive today.Understanding cultural norms is just as important as learning vocabulary when speaking Spanish.Relevant Links And Additional Resources:Level up your Spanish with our Podcast MembershipGet the full transcript of each episode so you don't miss a wordListen to an extended breakdown section in English going over the most important words and phrasesTest your comprehension with a multiple choice quizSupport the show

In this episode of the Professor Liberty Podcast, we saddle up and ride through history to explore the true origins of the American cowboy. From Secretary of State Marco Rubio's shout-out at the Munich Security Conference to Spain's role in bringing horses, ranching, and the vaquero tradition to the New World, to the Comanche's legendary mastery of the horse that reshaped the Plains, to Black cowboys like Bill Pickett who innovated rodeo culture and bulldogging, we cover it all. We'll dig into daily life on the trail, food, pay, and the rugged individualism that forged frontier life, while showing how the cowboy is really a tapestry of Spanish, Indigenous, African American, and broader Western European contributions: a living symbol of freedom, skill, and ingenuity that helped define the American ethos.

Is your team giving the market a different story depending on who they talk to—business development, operations, or leadership?   In a soft market, confusion is expensive.

When Bad Bunny takes the stage in Spanish, millions celebrate. But for many Puerto Ricans, it lands as something deeper: visibility, resistance, and a reminder of a history the United States still struggles to face. In this episode of Immigrantly, Saadia Khan sits down with Becca Ramos, creator of Welcome to El Barrio, (new episodes release every Tuesday) to discuss colonialism, diaspora, and the complicated politics of calling yourself Puerto Rican—not Puerto Rican American. Becca shares what it meant to grow up Afro-Latina in Texas, feeling too Black in some rooms, not Latino enough in others, and how that tension pushed her to build a platform for her community. The discussion unpacks Puerto Rico's territorial status, the myth of assimilation, the stereotypes that haunt Latino identity in U.S. media, and why joy itself can be a political act. This episode is about who gets ownership over history, language, and home. And what happens when people decide to define those things for themselves?

Febrero 17, 2026 - El amor es paciente. El amor es bondadoso. El amor no es celoso. Segun la primera carta de Pablo a la iglesia en Corinto, el amor verdadero se expresa en como nos relacionamos unos con otros. De hecho, estas actitudes amorosas son tan vitales que podriamos decir que, si no nos relacionamos con los demas con amor, entonces no nos relacionamos con ellos en absoluto.

At the time of recording this episode, Bad Bunny has just made history—TWICE. First Spanish-language artist to win Album of the Year at the Grammys. Then he delivered the most-watched Super Bowl halftime show of ALL TIME. But this episode isn't just about celebrating Benito's wins (though we're absolutely doing that too). It's about what this moment means for ALL of us—especially right now, when being Latino has been demonized and criminalized in this country.Just a heads up that this episode is a replay of a recent Instagram live I did post-superbowl and the audio reflects that in some parts.

In this episode, Jared chats with Jack Mullinkosson, whose Chinese-learning journey runs from a Vice China documentary set… to living with a Chinese immigrant family in suburban California… to studying in Chengdu… and now biking from Chengdu to Hanoi.Jack got started the way many learners do: by feeling left out. On set, surrounded by Chinese speakers, he noticed how differently the foreigners who spoke Mandarin were treated. Chinese looked like a superpower, and he wanted it.With plenty of downtime during the shoot, Jack began studying characters and survival phrases, boosted by the classic “Your Chinese is so good!” encouragement (even when it wasn't). That early confidence turned into a full-on obsession.Then COVID hit, and Jack found a creative workaround. Back in the U.S., he made a flyer in Chinese offering to live with a Chinese family in exchange for helping their kids with English. The result: four months in a Rancho Cucamonga “McMansion” shared by multiple Chinese families, nightly Mandarin dinners, and a crash course in immigrant hustle and real-world language practice.Along the way, Jack:Read Mandarin Companion graded readers to build his foundationUsed shadowing to level up tones and pronunciationLooked for chances to speak—even when it was inconvenientTurned everyday errands into “Chinese missions”After a few years in Brazil, where he learned Portuguese and became a remote software engineer, Jack returned to China with a new goal: connect Chinese to his career. He now makes videos in Chengdu, capturing spontaneous conversations with park shūshu fitness legends, friendly aunties selling plum wine, and locals who light up when a foreigner speaks Mandarin.And one of the coolest payoffs? While traveling in Spain, Jack used Chinese to order food from a Chinese restaurant owner when neither of them shared English or Spanish.Links from the episode:Jack Mullinkosson | InstagramMandarin Companion Graded Readers

Will you retire with purpose? Don’t leave it to chance. Design Your New Life after you leave full-time work. Learn more about our next small group coaching program starting in April here – and sign up here. __________________________ What if the word retirement is setting us up for the wrong life? After years in senior leadership roles, Cesar Aguirre discovered something most of us miss about retirement: the word itself matters more than we think. In English, we “retire” – we withdraw. In Portuguese, you become “aposentado” – left aside or left behind. But in Spanish-speaking cultures, retirement is called “jubilación” – which comes from the word for joy. That distinction changed everything for Cesar. Because when he stepped away from his career, it wasn’t the loss of work that shocked him – it was the jarring shock of losing an identity. He realized retirement isn’t just a life transition, it’s an identity transition, offering an opportunity to redefine who you want to become, and retire with purpose. Cesar joins us to share the framework he developed through his own transition – a ten-chapter roadmap for moving from “what I’m leaving” to “what I’m moving toward.” He’ll reveal why planning goes far beyond your finances, how to measure success when you’re no longer producing output, and the key warning signs that show up early when retirement first starts going wrong. This is a conversation about why approaching retirement with more intention might just create the most fulfilling chapters of your life. How will you retire with purpose? Cesar Aguirre joins us from Florida. __________________________ Bio César Aguirre is a seasoned HR executive with over 40 years of experience in global talent development. Now in active retirement, he embodies reinvention with passion as mentor, consultant, and author. In his book, Retirement with Purpose: The 10 Rs of Retirement, he shares his vibrant energy and insights to help readers rediscover purpose and embrace joyful living in their post-career lives. He currently resides in a lively 55+ community in Central Florida with his wife, inspiring others to design their authentic journeys for the second act of their lives. _______________________ For More on Cesar Aguirre Retirement with Purpose: The 10 Rs of Retirement _______________________ Podcast Conversations You May Like How to Prepare Mentally for Life After Work – Joseph Maugeri Re-Visioning Retirement – Susan Reid, PhD How to Retire – Christine Benz _________________________ About The Retirement Wisdom Podcast There are many podcasts on retirement, often hosted by financial advisors with their own financial motives, that cover the money side of the street.

I think the languages shape mindset. And mindsets shape behavior. So when retirement is framed as a joy, planning shifts from survival to flourishing become more natural.” On Measuring Success in Retirement “A good day is no longer about output, it’s no longer about how much you produce. It’s about action that is intended, an action that aligns with a master plan.” On What He’d Do Differently “I wish I had thought about it and prepared for my post-work identity a little sooner and more deliberately. In my job in HR, I helped many others plan careers, but I underestimated how much my own self-worth was tied to that job in that title. I think I did it humbly. I can say that I did a solid job planning financially, but probably not as good in preparing emotionally for the change. For a brief period of time, a few months, I underestimated that the identity shift that was occurring and the loss of a daily structure that I was so accustomed to.” On What He’s Gained in Retirement “Presence, the ability to not just having the time, but having the mindset of real presence, presence with my wife, which I neglected for a few years while I was traveling or working, presence with my kids, now with my grandkids, the rest of my friends, and new friends. I also gained a space and time for mastery, my hobbies. I enjoy cooking, well, time to do more and do a little better, exercising, riding the bike three or four times a week, playing pickleball. Retiring has given me time to go more in depth on my preferences instead of just speed, because in my working years, I was always rushing. Even when I was at home, I needed to accomplish, I needed to do things. I needed not to be idle. And retirement has now given me presence and bandwidth.” On Warning Signs “I think there are three main things that one needs to start paying attention to. Isolation. If you don’t have that network, social network, family network, and you become isolated. A loss of structure. Doing nothing without a structure or living in the past tense. When people stop connecting with others, when they drift through the days without an intentional plan, or when they only talk about what they used to be, that should be a warning, – a huge yellow flag for oneself and for loved ones that are looking after them.”

What if your private practice could be a platform for change—for your clients and yourself?Today's guest didn't just start a private practice; she built a mission-driven business that blends speech therapy with fierce advocacy. She traded burnout for autonomy and now uses her voice to empower families navigating the complex world of IEPs.I'm so excited to introduce you to Colleen Ashford, a speech-language pathologist and one of the dedicated clinicians inside our Grow Your Private Practice Program. Colleen is the owner and founder of Ashford Speech and Advocacy PC, a mobile and virtual private practice based in Vista, California where she provides evaluations, treatment, consultations, and advocacy at IEP meetings.For Colleen, starting her own practice was about more than flexibility and income—it was about authentic, values-driven work. She has created a unique model that allows her to serve early intervention clients and act as a special education advocate, ensuring families are supported at every step.In this episode, Colleen reveals how leaving the constraints of clinic and school jobs allowed her to design a practice that fits her life, serves her community deeply, and lets her show up as her full, authentic self.Colleen Ashford is a licensed speech-language pathologist and certified special education advocate.

Love brought her to Southern California, where she worked in multidisciplinary clinics alongside OTs and PTs, learning invaluable lessons about sensory and motor development that inform her holistic approach today.Now in her full-time practice, Colleen's areas of focus include AAC, Autism, Childhood Apraxia of Speech, and parent coaching in early intervention. She is passionate about providing culturally responsive early intervention services to the Spanish-speaking population in her own neighborhood. Always an advocate at her core—and now in title—Colleen equips every parent she serves with knowledge of their educational rights and how to navigate the world of special education.

Today's story: A “millionaire” is someone with a net worth of one million dollars. But the reality of a million dollars today is very different from when the word entered English in the late 1700s. Today's millionaires are more likely to drive ordinary cars, live in the suburbs, and manage their own daily chores than live the lavish lifestyles we often associate with the word “millionaire.”Transcript & Exercises: https://plainenglish.com/839Get the full story and learning resources: https://plainenglish.com/839--Plain English helps you improve your English:Learn about the world and improve your EnglishClear, natural English at a speed you can understandNew stories every weekLearn even more at PlainEnglish.comMentioned in this episode:Hard words?

Hey Framily! Welcome back to Virgo Season — where pop culture gets processed properly and personal decisions get respectfully interrogated.This week? Absolute chaos.Bad Bunny turned the Super Bowl into a cultural moment, a political statement, and a full Spanish-language flex — and somehow people are shocked that a Puerto Rican artist spoke Spanish.
