72. Rick Najera ~ A Story of Political Exodus
Episode 72
Wednesday, 14 January, 2026

A missing history finally told. Author Rick Najera joins us to discuss his ambitious new project, The Latino Family Chronicles, starting with the gold-standard saga of the d'Escoto family in Love, Truth, and Loyalty. Listen to the true story of how one powerful Nicaraguan family risked everything: political power, fortune, and safety to protect their lineage and forge a new life. Najera explains the urgency behind documenting these stories and why the d'Escoto story sets the standard for the entire series.
