So, let’s get to the obvious… this is a long episode! Hence, el doblado. Reason… none… so, grab a cup of coffee or your caffeine intake beverage of choice, or if you’re stuck in traffic… that works too, and enjoy a double dose of our special brand of bs.
We start off the episode with the continuation of story that was interrupted (nicely done), which flows into a discussion about the band Interpol and music in general. Of course, this take us back to the classic… sneaking food into the theater. We talk about a new favorite spot for hot dogs… Los Dogos (link below).
Some shout outs are thrown to co-workers, which takes us into hypothetical stories of being a tech. That somehow throws us into a talk about gentrification, which leads into recycling… which in turn leads to a discussion about bad service. It’s a smoother transition than it sounds.
Plus segments: Is it douchy and Me caga.
Thanks for listening and stay tuned…

Pinche Ramon, tu mom used a toilet as a plant holder until i told her to get rid of it.
I know I’m late on commentary for this episode, I agree on Latino’s not keeping their neighborhoods clean, but you also have to take into consideration the cultural piece. A lot of the people that live in these neighborhoods are people that come from small towns in Mexico that are very poor and if you know what those small towns are like, they don’t have a Waste Management system. People throw trash anywhere or create a pile and then burn the trash when the pile is big enough. So, it’s about educating our communities and not just expecting them to immediately acculturate.
I will say this… immediately maybe not but it isn’t a difficult change. It isn’t like the language argument of “why don’t they learn English”, we are talking about using these waste management systems. Sure, it might take a little bit to pick up ( 3 months, 6 months, a year?) but it is an easy enough concept and shouldn’t be as prevalent as it is. We just don’t do it, don’t care to do it, and pass that same attitude down. -Fernando
