About this episode

The episode explores JuanGa's political entanglements and the historical context of modern Mexico's journey from revolution to corruption.

JuanGa could get a little messy with politics. He had friends in high places, infamously hated paying taxes, and found himself in some cringey entanglements with powerful figures. But to understand JuanGa’s political life, Maria has to understand modern Mexico’s journey from an idealistic revolution to corruption and untangle the truth behind violent lore in her own family’s revolutionary history.
