Well, we're here. The season finale of ILS. Do not worry though, we will be back soon. Until then, on this episode we put Vero through the healthy ringer of trying to figure out which sparkling water is which. As far as topic is concerned, we touch on Latino/LatinX community becoming predominantly No Sabo kids, why our Latina moms love shopping at Ross, and if the ending to a show, movie, album, etc., is really that important. Vero also talks about her experience at this year's Austin Film Festival and Ricardo gives a recommendation to one of his favorite rapper at the moment for this episode's Good Looking Out. Listen and then listen again!
Appreciate all the continued support from you all!
