This episode features my conversation with Yolanda Aponte, a Puerto Rican woman from Long Island, NY. She's a kickass person with a happy marriage and five sons, who all seemed super well-adjusted and supported by their parents. Her home was warm and full of love. So...it was super weird for me to discover that she buys into some of the worst right-wing conspiracy theories. This conversation gets heated. The amazing part is that I came out of it freaking loving Yolanda. How is this possible, you ask? You have to hear it to believe it. If you want the hard facts on all the craziness we discuss, head to www.makeamericarelatepodcast.com and check out the Show Notes for this episode. And if you notice any info missing, shoot me an email through the Contact form and I'll fix it. This was easily my most challenging interview - I hope you enjoy it.
