Welcome to the After Party
Volume 13 of ¡El Playlist!
I’m so excited about today’s recommendations! Even though I have a catalog of podcasts to drip out to you, these two came across my feed just this week so I had to move them to the top of the list. And you’ll see why:
Welcome to Dismantling Diet Culture: F*ck Being Calladita
Description: Welcome to Dismantling Diet Culture: F*ck Being Calladita, the only spanglish anti-diet podcast. I’m your host, Dr. Hortencia Jimenez, a mother, daughter, comadre, amiga, community member, professor, health coach and published author. On this show I share personal experience, tips, strategies and education content to help you understand diet culture and systems of oppression so that you can have the tools to challenge diet culture. Current and future generations do not deserve to inherit your diet culture trauma and I’m here to help you.

Episode recommendation: Even though I’ve been following Dr. Hortencia Jimenez for a minute, I didn’t know she had a podcast—until Ana from last week’s ¡EP! posted about it on Instagram. Dr. Jimenez has been pumping them out since February and has a catalog of 45 episodes. With a name like DISMANTLING DIET CULTURE: FUCK BEING CALLADITA, how did I miss this?! Bueno, my recommendation is to start with the newest episode since it’s so timely 45. Setting Boundaries During & Beyond the Holidays. Here’s a taste from the episode:
After We Wrap
Description: "After We Wrap" is a podcast hosted by actresses Jaina Lee Ortiz and Gabriella Ortiz. They have candid conversations about life, love, the entertainment industry, occasionally inviting special guests to join in on the conversation. It’s the end of the day, let your hair down, drink some wine, and join Jaina and Gabriella for an authentic and engaging look into their lives and the world around them.
Episode recommendation: even though this is not a strictly indie pod, and I’m not usually into Hollywood-related content, the clip below literally stopped my Instagram scrolling—it had me rolling!🤣🤣🤣 Based on that alone, I’m recommending the latest episode with actress Chelsea Rendon.
This still of Jaina’s reactions was hilarious! Turns out both of the hosts are Puerto Rican, too. ¡Wepa!
