  • I died for minutes and came back to tell the story. Diego Díaz Mercado
    Oct 9 2026
    Diego was only 19 years old when he suffered a devastating car accident on Periférico while driving at more than 200 km/h. The impact caused an intracranial fracture, multiple fractures throughout his body, and led to more than 20 surgeries. He spent an entire month in a medically induced coma, and doctors said his chances of survival were extremely low. In this interview, Diego describes what it was like to wake up after 32 days unconscious, what he says he experienced while he was in a coma, and how the accident changed his life forever. Today, Diego is alive, married, and expecting his first child. This is a story about survival, second chances, and an experience very few people live to talk about.

  • Diego ENGLISH PODCAST
    Oct 2 2026
    Mario Díaz Mercado was only 18 when Mexico’s 1968 student movement changed the course of his life. What began with theater, school life, and a student council campaign soon became something much bigger. Mario found himself distributing political propaganda, joining demonstrations, confronting police repression, and becoming deeply involved in a generation that believed it could transform Mexico. He remembers the anger against President Gustavo Díaz Ordaz, the presence of government forces around schools, encounters with violent groups, and his later belief that government infiltrators had entered his own political circle. Mario was in Veracruz when the massacre of October 2, 1968, took place in Tlatelolco. He recalls learning the news that night, breaking down in tears, and realizing that if he had remained in Mexico City, he might have been there himself. More than five decades later, Mario looks back without romanticizing the movement. He reflects on why his generation idealized the Cuban Revolution, communism, and socialism, how his political beliefs changed over time, why he became disillusioned with parts of the political left, and whether the generation of ’68 truly succeeded in building the better Mexico they once dreamed of. This is a firsthand reflection on youth, rebellion, repression, political idealism, disillusionment, democracy, and the lasting impact of one of the most defining movements in modern Mexican history.

  • I Survived 6 Years Inside a Shelter That Felt Like a Prison. Eduardo Verduzco
    Sep 25 2026
    At just 11 years old, Eduardo was living on the streets. When he was taken to a children’s shelter, he believed his life might finally change. Instead, he says he entered a place filled with locked doors, spoiled food, terrifying punishments, and conditions that made the shelter feel more like a prison than a home. Eduardo spent six years inside La Gran Familia. He describes failed attempts to escape, years of fear, and the moment authorities finally entered the shelter and told them they were there to rescue them. This is Eduardo’s firsthand account of what he says happened behind those walls — and how he survived long enough to finally rebuild his life.
