Regulo Caro - Birth Of Corridos Progresivos|16 Years Of Friendship|Making Your Own Luck
<p>A Wednesday night at V Live in 2011 was the turning point. Régulo was barely four months into his career, playing his very first show right here in Chicago. Somehow, he packed 2,000 people into that room. That night was not just a concert—it was the birth of the Corridos. </p><p>Progresivos movement in our city. Eric, our friend Eddie, and I were standing right there as it happened. That show is exactly where we met him. Being some of his first friends in Chicago gave us a front-row seat to the moment that catapulted his career.</p><p>Sixteen years later, we are kicking back at the Salucita table to talk about the full journey. We get into the real story behind the massive risk he took leaving the safety of his father's companies in Sonora to come to the United States for a two-week run of gigs and never returning. Régulo speaks openly about the tragic loss of his brother, Ramiro, and how the media spotlight after that tragedy changed his life and ultimately propelled his career forward.</p><p>We also catch up on where he is today. We talk about his kids finding success in acting, leaning into viral social media moments like the Amazon delivery rumors, and watching his tracks from ten years ago explode all over again on TikTok. He even breaks down the recent buzz around the Corridos Progresivos return and why putting together a massive reunion show with all the original artists ended up falling apart. </p><p>Grab a drink and join the table.

EP 008| Ruben Ramirez: Comedy As A Defense| Navigating The Crowd | Stealing Con Todo
<p>Welcome to Episode 008 of the Salucita Podcast. This week, we sit down with Ruben Ramirez. He is Chicagoland's next great comedian and one of the sharpest voices documenting the Midwest hustle, deconstructing the reality of building a nationwide career in stand up. Overall, this is just a really enjoyable couple of hours spent laughing with the boys.</p><p><br></p><p>We were also incredibly happy to have Jose Alfredo from Madera 11 drop in as a special guest. He brings his own unique perspective to the table, which makes for some absolutely hilarious moments throughout the episode.</p><p><br></p><p>We even share the hilarious full circle story of how Ruben unintentionally stole our original podcast name. The very first name we bounced around was going to be Con Todo, but when I searched for it online to see if it was available, I just saw Ruben's big face staring back at me. It was already his.</p><p><br></p><p>We go far beyond the punchlines in this one to talk about the actual craft. We break down the artistry of a comedy set and exactly what it takes to navigate a tough crowd. Ruben dives deep into how being funny starts as a pure defense mechanism, opening up about having to develop a quick wit just to survive getting bullied by his own siblings. It is a survival story anyone from a loud, tough family knows perfectly.</p><p>Whether he is performing for four people in Ohio or a packed room across the country, Ruben brings the exact same energy. He is also incredibly gracious with his platform, always bringing along other guests from his hometown and comics he has met along the way. We also have a very real conversation about ICE targeting our communities, navigating the industry, and a hilarious breakdown of Gente Fina sizing for the big boys.</p><p><br></p><p>MAJOR ANNOUNCEMENT</p><p>In this episode, we officially announce our first ever live comedy special at La Tequileria! Ruben Ramirez will be headlining the room on June 20. You do not want to miss this.</p>
