Two Latinx friends. Wildly different music tastes. Radio Menea is a Latinx music podcast hosted by Verónica Bayetti Flores and Miriam Zoila Pérez that ran for close to 9 years and 300 episodes. A book inspired by the show, Muévelo: The Enduring Legacy of Latin Music Across Borders, will be released in August 2026. 

Called “the woke Latinx music podcast you should be listening to” by Remezcla and “the soundtrack to a queer mami’s sancocho” by Latina Magazine, Radio Menea is a bilingual journey through the Latinx music that is the soundtrack to Vero and Pérez’s lives, and probably yours too.
