Contrasting Stories in the Spanish-Speaking World

The podcast episode discusses two contrasting stories in the Spanish-speaking world: Javier Millet in Mexico and the economic situation in Argentina. The speaker highlights the differences between the older left tradition represented by Amlo in Mexico and the newer progressive social sense of the Pink Tide. The podcast also explores the anomaly of Mexico's political landscape being out of sync with the rest of Latin America, as it elected a left-wing president while other countries turned to the right. Additionally, the speaker mentions Amlo's success in improving the economy for the working-class majority and reducing poverty.
