Desconocido: Strange Stories from Latin America

About Desconocido: Strange Stories from Latin America

Desconocido is a podcast where we feature stories of the mysterious and unexplained centered on Latin America: told in a narrative-documentary style! Tune in for fascinating folklore, alien abductions, elusive cryptids, and little pieces of bizarre history! I'm not a reporter or journalist, just a second-generation Hispanic American trying to share what they find and maybe learn a little more about their roots in the meantime. Join me as I research the strange accounts you won't always see covered in the English-speaking world and have some fun telling their stories.
