Om episode
My Cuban mom voted for Biden. Given how the rest of the Cuban-American vote went and generally goes, her vote was no small matter. Listen as she talks about her decision, growing up in Cuba, and living in Miami for 37 years. Toward the end of the episode, I ask her "Who would you make a baby with?," forcing her to choose between "A fully sober Nikita Khrushchev, who insists on holding the shoe he infamously used to bang on a table during a 1960 UN General Assembly meeting and/or a clean-shaven, possibly pre-revolutionary Che Guevara." She explains her choice with aplomb and wit. You may as well know: every episode in Season 1 will end with such a (terrible-hilarious) choice.
