Latinx tv hosts Nastassja Bolivar and Christian Acosta join forces to co-host and produce their newest podcast series, SpeakEasy, a show to encourage the community to speak freely and clearly.
In every podcast session, Nastassja and Christian welcome their celebrity friends and discuss the latest happenings in pop culture, news, and social media.

Like Jasmine Camacho-Quinn , who celebrates the beauty behind being 100% American and 100% Hispanic, Christian Acosta said that he also experienced the so-called ni de aquí, ni de allá.

The weekly 30-minute show premieres on Thursdays and focuses on culturally-relevant content with crossover appeal.
