Welcome back Paletitas! In this episode, Ana Sheila, César Camacho, and Jose Richard aka Nalgona dive into a topic that can be both scary and liberating: aging. From personal experiences with shifting habits to the broader societal pressures around getting older, we unpack it all.
We explore the fears and joys of aging, the difference between real age and biological age, and the unique challenges faced by different communities. How do we navigate aging as queer folks? How do we deal with aging parents? How do we challenge the patriarchal systems that make growing older feel like a loss rather than a gain?
We also discuss practical ways to embrace aging with grace, including cultivating a positive mindset and finding role models who redefine what it means to grow older. Plus, we share key takeaways on longevity and well-being—hint: move your body and nurture your relationships!
Join us as we get real about wrinkles, wisdom, and the beauty of growing older. Don’t forget to comment, rate, and follow us on all platforms! Y recuerda que la vida es más sabrosa con nosotras porque somos Las Paleteras!

¡Hola hola Paletitas! Welcome back to another episode of Las Paleteras! Before we begin the episode, we’d like to acknowledge the devastating fires that engulfed the Los Angeles area, the place that most of the Paleteras team calls home. Our community has heartbreakingly lost their homes, belongings, pets, and even family members. Our hearts go out to all those affected by the fires. This episode explores the concept of home and what we’ve seen so far through these fires affirms that home is not just a place, but it’s in the people we cry, break bread, and rebuild with. We’re starting the year with a conversation that will hopefully warm your heart and spark introspection.
We’re joined by the incredible art activist Johanna Toruño, founder of the Unapologetic Street Series. Together, we dive into the ever-evolving question: What is home? Johanna shares her journey as an artist, immigrant, and dreamer—revealing the transformative power of creating home in unexpected places. From first memories of home to navigating the complexities of being undocumented, we explore the joys and heartbreaks of belonging. This episode is packed with laughter, tears, and deep connections. Along the way, Johanna’s stories of returning to El Salvador, our hosts’ reflections on moving to Mexico, and the unique paths we’ve all taken to redefine “home” will leave you inspired. Grab your favorite paleta, settle in, and join us for this beautiful conversation on Home.

Hola Hola Paletitas! Join the crew as we dive into a topic that's not often discussed but affects everything—money. From budgeting woes to generational wealth gaps, we’re getting real about our complicated relationship con el pinche dinero.
We’ll chat about why money is often a taboo topic, how generational wealth (or the lack of it) shapes our financial struggles, and the millennial fears of a retirement-less future. Plus we’re also sharing personal stories, laughs with the Paletero man, and our spicy take on why financial literacy is the ultimate glow-up. Whether you're ballin' on a budget or trying to figure it all out, this episode is for you.

Holi holi, Paletitas! In this episode of Las Paleteras, your favorite trio—Cesar, Ana Shelia, and Jose Richard aka Nalgona—dive deep into the intricate web of religion, spirituality, and queerness.
Growing up in traditional religious households while embracing a queer identity often creates a unique (and sometimes complicated) relationship with faith. We’ll share our earliest church memories, explore how our spiritual journeys have evolved, and reflect on the intersection of faith and identity.
We also uncover the story of Sor Juana Inés de la Cruz, a badass 17th-century Mexican nun and feminist trailblazer, and discuss how she inspires us as queer individuals navigating religion and spirituality today.
Tune in as we talk about finding love and acceptance beyond organized religion, navigating family dynamics, and reimagining faith as a source of connection and empowerment. Plus, we share advice and resources for anyone reconciling their queer identity with their beliefs.
Persínense Paletitas because this episode is one for the soul!

In this heartfelt episode of Las Paleteras, hosts Cesar, Ana Sheila, and Nalgona welcome special guest Curly Velasquez, another beloved paleta flavor who brings his own unique sweetness to the mix. Curly shares his story, starting with the cherished memories of his late abuelita, a bond many of his followers felt with him as he shared her impact on his life. The conversation dives into the depths of grief—how it can manifest in ways beyond physical loss, reaching into the end of relationships, friendships, and even the shedding of old identities or dreams that never came to be.
Cesar and Ana Shela guide the discussion, asking Curly to share his personal journey and how he navigates the complicated, often non-linear stages of grief. From shock to acceptance, grief can be isolating or a shared experience, and this episode explores how each of us finds our own ways to hold grief close, while also allowing space for joy and new life. Curly opens up about the challenges of navigating grief and finding peace, touching on both the heaviness and the healing.
This episode is not just about loss; it's about learning to walk with grief while embracing the beauty of living. Las Paleteras is here to remind you that it’s okay to grieve—and it’s okay to live fully at the same time. Grab your paleta and join us for this moving conversation on Las Paleteras.

In this episode, we’re taking a refreshing pause with Las Paleteras to dive into a hot topic: the fluidity of sexuality and evolving queer identities. Our hosts share personal stories on how their own sexualities, pleasures, and identities have changed throughout their lives. From grappling with pronoun etiquette to processing generational shifts in sexual identity, we dig into the data and explore where we see ourselves in these trends.
Then we’re deepening the conversation with reflections on inner struggles and societal pressures: Does oppression look the same as it did when we were younger? How has our queerness brought us strength—and, more recently, how has the rise in anti-LGBTQIA+ sentiments affected us? This episode embraces the power of queer liberation, both as individuals and within our community.
As we close, we reflect on questions we wish we had answers to in our youth, as well as the questions we hold now as queer adults. Grab your favorite paleta and enjoy another flavorful episode of Las Paleteras!
