My computer crash and yes you guessed it – post delay. I have spent the last couple of weeks updating. I’m grateful for having a cloud backup. Unfortunately, I haven’t been able to edit new episodes. I’ll be posting and editing again this week. Thank you for your patience.
Chica and the Man has Launched!
Welcome to the Chica and the Man Podcast. Alex and I are very excited to co-host this podcast.
LOS ANGELES — It’s one thing for friends to decide to do a podcast together, but quite another for two people to meet and become friends through podcasting.
Poet and actress Sonia Iris Lozada met author and podcaster Alex Greenwood as a guest on his show, Mysterious Goings On. The pair recognized their chemistry immediately, and soon, Greenwood guested on Lozada’s show, Poetic Resurrection. However, they have never met in person.
“We just clicked. Alex and I became fast friends,” Lozada said. “I liked talking with him about creativity and life in general and thought we could have fun doing a regular show where we pick a topic and chat. So I asked Alex, and he was up for it.”
The pair quickly settled on a cheeky name for their podcast, Chica and the Man, a riff on the 1970s hit TV show about a Latino man and his white friend. In this case, a reference to Lozada’s heritage.
“And I’m ‘the man’ purely by virtue of my sex,” Greenwood said. “Sonia and I want the name of the show to suit our attitude, to be playful. We’re pretty sure listeners of a certain age will get the pun.”
