17: Alcohol, Weed & the Lies We Were Told (Latina Truth Talk Gaby)

from Unicorns Do Exist · host Vanessa Ruiz

Alcoholism in the Hispanic community is often ignored, joked about, or swept under the rug — and we’re done staying quiet.In this episode of Unicorns Do Exist, I’m joined by Gaby, host of the No Pus Guao podcast, for a fun, honest, very Latina conversation about alcohol, weed, ecstasy, and why alcohol is the most normalized — and most dangerous — drug of all.We talk culture, family patterns, machismo, silence, and how alcohol is treated as “normal” while other substances are villainized. Plus, with the Super Bowl and Bad Bunny headlining the halftime show — aka the Benito Bowl — we dive into that cultural moment too. 🏈🎤🍻 This is real talk, simple words, lots of flavor — and zero judgment. If you grew up around alcohol, questioned it, or felt like nobody ever wanted to talk about it… this episode is for you.🎙️ Follow Gaby from No Pus Guao ✨ New episodes weekly — because healing and honesty can coexist. 🦄 Listen Now Unicorns Do Exist POD
