Who we are
Two journalists, a 12 m² studio and one rule: nobody gets up before the ninety minutes are over
We're Andrés Gil and Leire Ochoa. We worked ten years in local radio and in 2022 stopped asking permission: we rented a ground-floor space in the San Pablo neighbourhood, bought two microphones and started inviting people who don't appear on TV.
The podcast lives on the listeners who support it with €3 a month and on two sponsors per season. That's why there's no ad break every ten minutes.
