"Julio Macias born Mars 20 1990”

I recently sat down with my very good friend Julio Macias. We discuss his parents early life in Mexico City and some of the struggles they had to overcome as young adults, including his mothers brave involvement at protesting the Olympics held in her home town in Mexico in the 1960’s, and why Julio is proud to call his mother a feminist. He shares a very intimate story about how he and his family were once held at gun point when he was just a child, and the decision his parents made to aim for a safer life in the United States. We find out about Julio’s embarrassing first day of school in America, and the one friend he found solace with named Kennith (shout out to Kennith!) I ask Julio about the experience working on his breakout role, Oscar ‘Spooky’ Diaz, that he portrays on the Netflix series “On My Block.” He then tries his hardest to discuss a scene from the film “Kate & Leopold,” but we realize we’ve accidentally got to drunk during this recording to make any damn sense... so that happens. Oh and Rachel makes a cameo! Love, Krisinstagram: @ajuliomacias @kristianlugo  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
