See full terms at Mintmo 2021. Cubans go massively out into the street. They start protesting. Biden is in the White House. What he does opens up again. So every time the Cuban people are willing to fight for their freedom, there's an American administration that says, don't fight there. Come live here in the United States. We don't want to be. We don't want to be here. We want to be. I mean, we're grateful for the United States. People tend to say that immigrants make America great. America made us great because if we were able to make something great, we would step back in our countries and make our countries great. So America gave us the opportunity to be great, to be successful. So we want to do that in our own homeland, says Castro.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
The Cuban revolutionary government has no reason to offer explanations to America or to anyone. Since 1959, Cuba. Cuba has been under the control of a totalitarian communist government ever since Castro, with the help of Guevara, took power at the end of the Cuban revolution. It has been a communist thorn in the free world side just as much during the Cuban missile crisis as it is today. I do believe I'll be the honor of taking Cuba.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
That'd be a good honor.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
It's a big honor.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Do you believe that the Cuban regime possesses a national security threat to the United States?
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
I do.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Now if you were to steel man the western leftist influencer's argument, it's actually America's fault. It's America's government's fault. All of the misery thrust upon the Cuban people. It's us, it's not communism.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
We need to talk about what's happening
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
in Cuba right now. As the Trump administration is waging illegitimate
Day (Spanglish Generation)
wars across the world, it is also
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
strangling the Cuban people, which really, if not in theory, because it hasn't been done correctly yet, it's actually the ideal socioeconomic system. For years I've wanted to visit Cuba. I wanted to see a socialist society in person. Last month I took the opportunity to go as part of a humanitarian mission to bring aid that my government won't. Despite all that and having open trade and economically viable relationships with the largest trading partners in the world outside of the United States, the country seems to be, and by that I mean is on the brink. With protests becoming increasingly prevalent amongst food shortages, blackouts, etc. Now to the crisis in Cuba. The US ramping up the pressure on the government as crippling blackouts and a teetering economy have sparked unrest on the island. So let's cut through the fog here. The Maga America first patriotism, anti pinko commie. We have blockaded oil coming into Cuba. So this has led to a catastrophe versus leftist Communism hasn't been done right. And where has communism worked so far? Due to a lot of situate a lot of conditions around, we haven't actually seen a communist society as in we haven't seen a stateless, classless society. What's actually going on? Let's cut through the TikTok trends, the social media fake news. We went straight to the source and brought in actual real life Cubans to give us the straight story.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Are you a communist?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Well, wait for the history.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
The history will take what we are.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Welcome.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
As you notice, the dynamic here is a little bit browner today because we've been talking about Cuba quite a bit with Hassan Piker, Nick Shirley. You know, I've talked about having gone to Cuba and a lot of people maybe aren't fully aware in the United States what the dynamic is there, the threats that it poses. It's just sort of become a political talking point. So we decided to wrangle up some Cuban Americans and have them here. Welcome to the, I guess what we call it Cuban Roundtable. What should we call this?
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
I think Cuban Roundtable.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I don't like the roundtable term because they do that in Cuban Communist.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Louder with browner.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
How about that?
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Louder with browner.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
But introduce yourselves to people who may not be from. Obviously you've Been on the show.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Yes. My name is Day from Spanglish Generation, and I was born in Cuba, came when I was 8 years old, and this is home.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Okay. And where can people find.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Spanglish Generation is my platform. We do a lot of talking there. Cuba and not Cuban, but a lot of independent thinking, a lot of, you know, just good ideas, in my opinion. So feel free. Well, you know, happy to be here. This is great.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Well, we're glad to have you. And there's nothing you don't have to say in your opinion. People often used to tell me when I was young, they go, you know, you just think you're always right. I'm like, if I didn't think I was right, I wouldn't be thinking, am I going to think I'm wrong?
Day (Spanglish Generation)
That's true.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I could be wrong.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
That's true.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
But I'm not going to think I'm wrong.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
But, you know, I'm Cuban, so I always. I think I'm always right.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Regardless. So that's like the humble way of kind of telling you, you know, you're
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
probably in comparison to I'm a woman. What's that?
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
I'm the woman.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Oh, I thought you said, I'm a woman.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Who Introduce Jorge Masvidal's understudy. You came here because you were sitting

in the same seat where really.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
And I was like, I was having flashbacks, but let everyone know where to find you. And.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Yeah. Jose Alvarez. I kind of touch on Miami topics, but I've been touching about. On politics and culture a little more frequently, a little more analytical and, you know, what are the power structures of things that we're seeing within the US you can find me at what Josoy has to say. And. Yeah, Miami. Cuban American, born and raised.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
And then we. You two are coming?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah, we're kind of. Yeah, it's a two for one thing. Yeah, we're special. It called me. Fries and soda. Yeah, fries and sodas. We are species boys. P A C S Y. We are cousins. First cousins from. From Cuba. Cuban Americans. Proud to be Cuban Americans. We're cousins on the mother's side. So this is something that runs in the family. And we make funny videos, try to be funny. We have a podcast in Spanish called Somos los pichi, boys. Mostly we talk about, you know, funny stuff. We talk about the news. We make our own impression, what's going on. And we also like to support what's going on in our country, to support the freedom of Cuba, the freedom of Cuban political prisoners. And first of all before we start, we want to thank you to giving us your platform so we can talk to your audience about what really is going on in Cuba. Because we've seen so many people talk about our country, our reality that they just read about it on the news. Yeah, but we have lived it, right. We have had to escape from Cuba. Michael went on a raft for like eight times trying to flee from.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I know you said he was the worst sailor ever.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Worst sailor ever, ever. In the lake. He found out he was trying to leave Kiwi on a lake. That's why he found out on the a time because they were thirsty, they tasted the water. It's like it's not salt water.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Who thought to taste the water?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I mean it's a lake, so. But yeah, thank you, thank you for having us here.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
No, absolutely.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Thank you so much.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I very much, I appreciate you guys being here. I mean my manager, we call him Gay William. He's Cuban American. He is super gay Cuban American and to the right of Attila Hun. He's like, I have stand up bits about him and people think I've made up this fascist, homophobic character. And I'm like, it's all real, it's all real. He's just hardcore because his mom came from Cuba. Anti communist.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yes.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
And I've had a lot of experience with them too. I mean I've been to both Havana, I shot this commercial in Havana and then I was in Guantanamo Bay and saw the differences. And in Canada they'll vacation in Cuba and they'll come back and they would say, oh my gosh, it's so beautiful. It's. I'm like, well, I know you went to the touristy area, the beach. Did you see how people live?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
And I was sickened with Canadians supporting
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
that regime going forward because it's like a fairy tale communism. They love to sell a fairy tale. They love to like free health care, free this, free everything but us that we have to survive. It is not like that. I mean we get paid 10, 15amonth and then food is like 200, $300 a month. The Cuban economy is sustained by the Cuban that are Miami sending money back to Cuba and people around the world sending money back to Cuba to their families. They're keeping them hostages. Right. But that's it, that's the reality of Cuba.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah. What do you think people get most wrong about it in the States, about Cuba? Because you know, we still today we live in a post truth era. Right. With AI videos. I mean we had you on When Hasan Piker went there, he went to Cuba. And I don't know if you saw Nick Shirley went to Cuba and very, very different treatment. Right. If you're not approved by the government. But Hasan Feiger going, this is great, by the way. Someone's dying on a ventilator because they're using the power for his whatever, his stupid Irish hip hop. And people just go, yeah, yeah. So it must not be that bad. I mean, every single major American celebrity, political celebrity, from Jane Fawn to Oliver Stone, Bob Dylan, they all supported the Castro regime. They still wear Che Guevara shirts.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Yep.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
And I always tell him, like, you might as well wear a shirt of Hitler. He was like Hitler without the charm. He just wasn't as successful. What do you, what do you. And I've. Every Cuban American I've met has been very patriotic, very grateful, very family oriented. What do you guys think when you see that here stateside and you see privileged white Americans, Viva la revolution.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I think so. They say that because they never live right there. They never live in the communist and the socialist region.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
That's why they say that.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah, that's.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
I think that. And I've spoken about this on my page before, I think that's a product of American privilege.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Right.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
You're so disconnected from hardship, you're so disconnected from survival that, for example, a lot of the woke stuff and not to get into that topic, comes about because it's Maslow's hierarchy or whatever it's called, the survival of. The hierarchy of survival.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Which is once you stop worrying about food and the basic needs, you worry about social issues. Right. That's the next. The next logical level. Right. That's American privilege. Right. You're so disconnected from what the reality is that some people need to go through that. You're worried about, you know, pronouns or what. Or all these socialist ideals, Right. Because socialist, socialism, it's social. Social problems, right?
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
So you deviate from the things that made this country this country, and you start getting brainwashed into, you know, believing that an oppressive regime 90 miles off the coast of the US is heaven. When the reality is it's, it's.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I mean, how many, how many people you see leaving the US on makeshift boats and rafts, going to Cuba?
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Exactly.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
How many people you see from Cuba risking everything to come to the U.S. as a matter of fact, Haiti is 42 miles from Cuba. They don't go to Cuba on boats. They bypass Cuba and they come to the US to ask for freedom. I mean, Cubans Go to Haiti. Exactly.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Think about how much better.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Exactly.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
They show up like, look, more Cubans. They probably enslave them. They're eating dirt. You know, in Haiti, they eat dirt cookies. They actually use their money to buy dirt cookies.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah, but Cubans go to Haiti to find clothes, medicine, to sell it to Cuba. Cuba, the great example of medicine that they try to sell to the world. The great example, example of, you know, education. And we have family in Cuba that has to go to the, to the doctor to get an operation. We have to send stuff from the
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
U.S. yeah, that's to bring their own
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
tools, their own tool, because then they won't get operated. But if you go as a tourist, they do have things for you as a tourist, but not for the people.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
So let me ask you this, because I had this in Canada, right, where Michael Moore, sicko, I'm sure you remember Cuba. So he talked about Canada. And one of my first, actually my first hidden camera video was in 2009. I just said, well, I know I grew up under socialized healthcare. It's not anywhere bad as Cuba. I just took a hidden camera. Back then there were no hidden cameras. I'd like put like a little picture camera in a trucker hat, like, hey, doctor. But just went into the emergency room and just showed people at all the hospitals I went to as a kid. And it was, you know, like 18 hours to see someone in an emergency room. It was three years to find a family doctor. I just decided to go through the system. And I didn't know because Canada, it's sort of, it's western, it's newer. I didn't know if maybe Michael Moore doesn't know because he's just looking at a list. A lot of the international health care lists where they say the best, it's self rated. So are you satisfied with your health care? Well, it turns out under fascist regimes, you're like, see? Yeah. Do you think Michael, when you see that though, when you see Michael Moore going, Cuba has better health care than the United States, at a certain point you go, that can't just be ignorance. This guy is in on the propaganda.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
That's an 100%. It has to be an agenda. Because I mean, we work as artists, we make movies, we make theater plays or stuff like that. And we see the budget that they put to make the communism look good. You go to, for example, you go to Netflix, you will find movies about how great Cuba is, how great the Castro regime is, but you don't find anything talking bad about them. So they do buy out that PR relationship around the world, because they need that to sell a lie. It takes more money to sell a lie, to make you realize something that is not true. They have to spend a lot of money to make you believe something that's not real. But you are in there. You live in fear. You live in. Without food, without anything. You don't need nobody to sell you that lie. Right. But outside people need to see that.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
No.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah, Communism is perfect. They need to spend a lot of money in that. And that's why they get these players to portray the Cuban regime as something beautiful when it's not.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
The left is very well organized. That's what they excel at. And that's where they beat us, because they are organized and they're militant. Militante, that's a very cute word. In communism, you are militant of the Cuban, of the Partido Comunita, so of the Communist Party. So when I see the people in the us just common folk, thinking that Cuba is great, I just see a result of the propaganda, a result of their militancia all these years. And it's scary to me because my parents brought me here for a better future. They've risked everything. People have risked their lives. My husband came on a raft, too. And when I see people here idolizing Cuba, I'm thinking, we're in danger, and where do we go if the US falls to something similar to Cuba? So when people say that Cuba's health care is better because they fell for Hasan and the little makeshift flotilla that went to Cuba, I'm just seeing the result of years of work. And I'm thinking we need to really step up our game and let people know. And that's why this platform is so important and these spaces are so important to let people know that, yes, we want Cuba to be free because we were born in Cuba, at least, or we have direct ties to people that were born in Cuba, and it's dear to our hearts. But we came to this country looking for freedom. And this is the place where we found the opportunity to be what we couldn't be in our country. So it's our opportunity to tell Americans, tell people of the United States, this is a plan.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
And this has been the plan all along to make sure that you think that's the alternative and that's better and that's social. Because socialism, you know, so great and, well, you know you're sick here. Look how they treat you. Look at the insurance companies. They're so evil. Not in Cuba. You get treated for free. Everybody cares about people. You know, they're resilient, so they want to instill that. And the people here don't fall for it, because once you fall for it, it's taken us 67 years and we're knocking at the door of the United
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
States saying, help us, because it's over. Before it happened in Venezuela, Cubans from Miami, we're telling them, don't trust this.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
It'll never happen here. It'll never happen.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
It will never happen in Venezuela. And it did happen. And every time. Good that you mentioned that. Every time that we see something for free, we don't like it.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah, yeah.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
That's why Cubans, because ain't nothing free. It comes with an attachment.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
And that's why Cubans, we don't like getting freebies. We understand. We're watching TV and we see a politician go free her car, free this. We're like, no, no, no, no, no.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Free groceries.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Somebody's paying for it somewhere because somebody's gonna have to pick up that bill. Free boost is, yeah, somebody's gonna pick up the bill.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
And it's funny, though, but it follows the same, same course you look at. Like you talk about Venezuela. Well, oh, that's right. Oliver Stone, Sean Penn, they were praising Chavez. Then when Maduro came along, like, kind of like. Well, maybe not. It's like, so did Bernie Sanders. Red lines are a good thing. Right? They praise those until it always falters. Just like these people praise the Castros. And then we end up at the inevitable intersect where we feel like, okay, how are we going to move forward?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
But it's all marketing. For example, us being here in your show is great for us because we got some attention from, you know, for a big show to talk to American people about our situation. But the left, they will pay big networks for interviews, for moments, for movies. They even go to Cuba and they're interviewing the Castro family. Oh, yeah. You don't see the right media outsource interviewing this guy. You only see left wing media officers. He's talking about, yeah, Cubans, we need freedom. We want to be more capitalist. But they don't ask him the hard questions. Why do you have political prisoners? Why do you have free elections? Why don't you have freedom of speech, for example?
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Well, it's worse than that. And I want to go because I know you had a point you want to bring up, but Susan Rotolo was the. She was the girlfriend of Bob Dylan. She was like a big activist. She actually said, I don't have the quote in front of me, she said, it's actually fine. You can protest as long as you're not disruptive. They're not. It's not what you're told in the West. They're not jailing. So they actually carried the propaganda. And that's exactly what we saw with Venezuela. And I was watching Motorcycle Diaries, I think, in college. Remember that? The Che Guevara motorcycle Diaries. Well, in Cuba, they're trying to get to the United States. It just shows you the differential in propaganda. But you were about to say something off of history.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
So two things to your first question. Is it ignorance or is it designed? We have two Congress men and women, Pramila J. Paul and the other guy, I forget his name, that recently went to Cuba to meet with the regime Democrats. Obviously both sure. Do you think these people are that ignorant? And they went on camera to say that the Cuban health care system is far better than the United States. You think that's actual ignorance? Congress people in the United States of America?
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
If it was aoc, I'd say yes. But with them, no.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Well, yes.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Look, I'll say doctrine, but listen. Good enough for me.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Listen, we know there's retarded people in Congress. Like this is 100%, but to that degree where you went on the island and you come back saying that it's better than the United States healthcare system. That's. That's psychotic.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
My girl likes it.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Yo, what's good, fam?

I thought you and Rachel broke up.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
We are on a mutual break, Dad.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I told you that. Is that why she kicked you out of her apartment?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Dad, I told you, she didn't kick me out. I decided to leave when her friend Jamarcus moved in.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Isn't it a one bedroom?

No, it's a studio suite, dad. You know what would be sweet?

If you call American finance. You got your own place.

Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
It's champagne socialist.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I mean, just like the Met gal we're talking about. This is excess consumption, completely unnecessary while they browbeat Americans who want to get a nice.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
And then the second point that I want to bring up is you mentioned the American media over there in the U.S. but that has been a play by the regime since the Castro days. Castro amplified his running through, manipulating CBS reporters to go into the island in La Sierra Maitra and amplify his entire thing. So this is. This is not a new trick. They're just. It's the playbook. They're opening it back up. Like, let's.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Let's reuse. He has a speech from the mountains, Castro, that he said, like, Elsadillos are not communists. We are not communists. We will never be communists. That was in 58, 1958. As soon as he got capitalist and he knew what he could do. And that's one of the things that we are so angry about it that we have a communist regime threat to the US 90 miles from the coast of Florida. So Cubans, we have been trying to be free for 70 years. 1962, Bay of Pigs, a bunch of Cuban from Miami. They organized, they went back, they invaded. They wanted to get freedom. They were fighting there. Kennedy didn't back them up. We didn't get freedom. We go back to 1980. Cuba gets really, really bad. People start getting outside, protesting, you know, manifestating. And then Carter was the president of the United States, another Democrat. What he did, Mariel, he opens up so the Cuban could leave the country. So what happened? People started leaving. We have the Mariel exile. You got a Scarface on that, right? Yeah.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Worst Cuban accent ever.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Exactly.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Then you have 1994 people, same stuff. They go out to the street, they start protesting, you know, doing manifestations. Clinton in the White House. What he do? Opens up. That's when everybody left. 20, 21, Cubans go massively out into the street. They start protesting. Biden is in the White House. What he does opens up again. So every time the Cuban people are willing to fight for their freedom, there's an American administration that says, don't fight there. Come live here in the United States. We don't want to be. We don't want to be here. We want to be. I mean, we're grateful for the United States. People tend to say that immigrants make America great. America made us great because if we were able to make something great, we would step back in our countries and make our countries great. So America gave us the opportunity to be great, to be successful. So we want to do that in our own homeland. Yeah. You know, and especially Cubans, we have to flee. We have to leave. We don't have the chances to be like, oh, I want to have a farm in Cuba. I want to have a house in Cuba. We cannot do that.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
So at the end of the day, we are like animals. When you are, like, threatened and corner if you don't have an exit way, you fight. But every time we have a corner, yeah, it's a Democratic administration that opens up. So we have to leave the country.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
But it's very important because people will see that and they'll go, oh, open up. That's empathetic. Americans go, it's empathetic because they don't understand the way.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
It's empathy.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Yeah, that's a key word.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Everything's a quality. Everything's beautiful, man.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Well, that's the big thing, too. Like, for example, they just go, if you lift this cruel embargo, let me go through some, because I know what people are going to say. First off, people are going to say, and I want to make really clear what you were just saying, like, America has made us great. Because some people go, like, well, if you want to leave, then go back. You're trying to say, we can't. In other words, Cubans don't.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I would love to go back to.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I would love to.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
To God. We're not allowed.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I don't even have a Cuban passport.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
No, no, of course you can't go back.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
You know, I mean, we're not allowed, and we're not allowed to be successful in our country.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
So what do you say to people? Because people will say, well, really? Yes, they're right. The Cuba is now. They've shifted the goalpost where they go, yeah, Cuba's not doing well. But that's because of the United States. That's because of their embargo.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
That's because of the Communist Party that is unfit to rule. And they have the worst economic system in the world. That's the main reason. Because if you take out the Cuban Communist Party and you let us work, we will make it happen. It's not the Cubans, it's the institutions. You see it in the United States, the Secretary of State is a Cuban American.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah. You know, and he's exhausted, you can tell.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
He's DJing weddings.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Exactly, exactly. And at the end of the day, it's a system that is not. It doesn't work. They don't let you choose who's going to govern you.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
They can't.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I mean, they can't choose. Yeah, exactly.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
The government can't allow it. That's the thing. If you, when you say, because I know your, your viewers and people in the comments are going to go crazy talking about it is the US's fault.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Well, not my viewers, but I always present devil's advocate, because that's. The Hasan goes, if it wasn't for the us, they'd be prosperous.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Not your viewers, your loyal viewers, but those that, you know. You know to respond.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Right.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Well, so basically, in Cuba, the government cannot allow the people to get empowered to have a business, to plant food freely, because the moment people are empowered, people get a wisp of what it feels like. They cannot allow that. So they need to. They'll always have to blame someone else. But if you lift the embargo, it'll be the same thing. People will not be able to do the same thing. However. However, why are we not pro for lifting the embargo? Because they're. Well, it's going to be the same thing. Just lift it. There are different things that, you know, and the way I see it, the embargo came into place the. Not the arms embargo of Batista. We need to let that, you know, let's make that difference because people are. Well, the arms embargo, Batista, the modern embargo, started because Fidel expropriated things that were not his.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
He came into power and he not only took Hershey's from Felton. Yeah. He didn't take just the big people, the foreigners that were, you know, sakiando, the island, like, like taking advantage of the island, as they call it. He took the barbershops, he took the bodegas, he took every single Cuban business. Everybody, everybody, he expropriated. So. So that embargo came as a result of Fidel taking what wasn't his. So in my opinion, as principle, you cannot lift the embargo because all that will be like, just forgotten? I don't think so.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Well, not only that, but it'll just like you talked about, the aid will go through the Cuban government and not go to Cuba.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Exactly.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
And I want to turn to that American viewer that is like, lift the embargo. Let them be, you know, successful. All right, listen to me and pay attention to what I'm gonna say. Okay. The Cuban government decided three weeks ago that U.S. cuban Americans in the exile. Yes. Can go back and invest in Cuba. Can go back and bring our millions of dollars and put it into the Cuban economy.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Nice of them.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
All right, but where's the embargo? There?
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Right.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
So that. That tells you that for 70 years. For 70 years. Because the Americans, they don't care about us going back to putting money in Cuba.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
So where's the embargo? That's number one. Number two in the embargo. There's nothing against aid, food, medicine. It's a carbon, even infrastructure. So there's nothing about that in the embargo.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
So. But let's forget about all that. Forget about all that. You have Russia, you have China, the
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
two biggest trading partners on earth outside of the United States, and they.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
And they do do business with Cuba. Russia, a couple of years ago, they gave Cuba a billion dollars to do the electric infrastructure, to renovate it so they don't have so many blackouts. What the Cuban government did, they took all the money, they put it into hotels, they put it into the things that bring money to the dictatorship.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
You know, so at the end of the day, the embargo is interned. It's from the Cuban government to the Cuban people. Because Cuba is surrounded by the sea. The Cuban people cannot go out and fish.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Well, I mean, even a microcosm of that up told the story on the show before, when I was in Havana, we were shooting a rising crust pizza commercials. Like, you know, the production company had a budget for Q4. Like, let's go to Cuba. It was shot indoors. We didn't need to be there, but we were at a hotel. And my mom, God love her, French Canadian, she. She put the tip on the bill and she goes, oh, I'm sorry, is that gonna. Gonna go to you? And he's like, no. She goes, oh. And she was gonna scratch it out. He goes, no, no, no, no, no, don't scratch it out. Cause he'll know. So we would have to leave things like, like cosmetics, soap. Chiclets are really popular. For some reason, Chiclets are still big there. I don't get it? We've moved past Chiclets. We have extra.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
We call them Chiclets. Yeah.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
It's like us with Coke. Because if you give them anything, in other words, even if you go with the best of intentions, it will not go to them. It will go straight to the government.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Correct.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
And it was Mexico just send them food because of the. Of the. You know, Americans are trying to kill the Cuban people. Trump is trying to kill the Cuban people.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
People.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
So we send them food and rice and beans. What they did, they start selling that on stores. They would sell it to the people,
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
to the hotels that you were mentioning. Those are hotels that Cuban people cannot even go to themselves.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Exactly.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
They're strictly for tourists. Cubans cannot visit their beaches. You cannot enjoy the natural resources of the island. Can I cross?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
They think that you're surrounded by the sea and they don't let you fish. You want to go out and have your own fish. No, no, no, no. You cannot have.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
You're not allowed to fish.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
No, you're not. You're not.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Not at all. Or you're like, you're not allowed to
Day (Spanglish Generation)
fish because you need a very restricted license. And you. That you have to give. They have to account for everything that you fish. So it's not like you go out here and you fish. No, that's not the way it works. And you can eat the shrimp and all that stuff is reserved for export and for tourism. So when he says you can't fish, you literally have to have, like, you
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
go through a very. You can go. You can go to the coast and have you, like a little snapper.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
That's it.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
But, like, commercially, like, you cannot go out and have, like, you know, like have your home, your fish market. You cannot do that.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Cubans don't know what lobster is, what
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
shrimp is, and that's the Cuban government. It's not about the embargo. The embargo doesn't mess with that.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Trump doesn't control that.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Exactly. They're starting sending cars to Cuba the other day. Cars?
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Luxury cars.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
There's cyber cars in Cuba.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Exactly. So where's the embargo? In there.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Really?
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Yeah.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Charge it.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Well, yeah, I guess. How do you get it even for
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
the island, but no way to plug it in.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I don't know if is a cyber truck or a fish. Yeah, maybe I take the cyber truck to go fish.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
The embargo.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
The embargo is the biggest lie. It's the biggest lie ever. The embargo is the Cuban Communist Party against the Cuban people that the American people need to understand that it's coming from a Cuban that lived. I lived it. I lived it. I didn't saw it in the news. I was born and raised in there. The embargo is the Cuban Communist Party. That doesn't let us prosper. They don't let us prosper. Every time a Cuban, a Cuban goes like they even make it made a law for Cubans that weren't having money. Les Maseta, they call it.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Oh yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
So when you were making money, we're like, you're too prosperous.

You saw all these beautiful, these big homes on the hillside, completely empty. I remember seeing it and I remember also thinking it was weird. I would go to like a bodega. Like, wait a second, I can buy stuff here. I'm like, how is there a store if it's. If it's supposed to be communist? And I was like, how are people here buying? Well, it turns out they don't. They have no purchasing power. You're about to.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
It's a distribution issue. It's not, it's not that there is inside. They don't distribute to the people of the island. And anybody that argues for the embargo, to me is it's a clear signal. You're never looked into it. Because an embargo and a blockade are two different things.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
It's not blocked from, from any sort of trade. Cuba trades with the entirety of the globe.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Like it's 136 countries or some Crazy number like that. How are you doing so poorly when the only person you don't trade with, and I put in quotation because they still trade with the US is the United States. Right. The number one source of poultry, of chicken, comes from the fucking state of Kentucky.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah, Cuba.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
People don't know that. What embargo? Yeah, it's bullshit. It's a distribution issue. And the wheat, right, they collect everything and they resell it, and it never makes it to the people. That is it.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
They believe that there's some American, you know, troops, like, wearing gold.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Venezuela was giving them 100% of the oil supply. It was coming from Venezuela. Cuba was selling 60% and they were still having blackouts. So Venezuela with them for free, 100% of the oil that they needed, and they were selling 60% of that oil. Cuba has a company called Gaesa, which is the military company that controls all the hotels, all the infrastructure. They have 18. And you can look this up. American people that doesn't like what we're saying, you can look it up. They have $18 billion on a bank that is controlled by the Castro family. Yeah, they have $18 billion on an account. And they get all the money from tourism and from infrastructure for everything. Gaia is a control the entire Cuba. So all the money that Cubans made, it goes into Gaza, and Gaia has $18 billion of that. So where is the embargo?
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Stephen, I think that the word. What Josue touched on is an excellent point.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Embargo versus blockade.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
That is a perfect example.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Interchangeably, to confuse the propaganda.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
They say blockade, blockade. A blockade is military, you know, blockade, like physical blockade, ships. That's not a blockade. You know, we don't have a blockade. But that's what the regime has said for decades. And that's what people say, blockade, blockade. But they don't even.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
They don't have a blockade against Canadians getting sunburned, for God's sake. I literally watch all the Canadians go down. Like, it's beautiful. I went to the beach. That was beautiful. You're like, yeah, now tell them about the child prostitutes.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Exactly. They like big stories in Cuba. We were on the radio when that happened. And we have many sponsors down there in Miami that were willing to fill up a plane full of aid to bring to Cuba. But we wanted to give it to the people by hand. Like, I want to get into Cuba, I want to get into the airport, I want to get my plane of supplies. I want to give you the aid that you need. The Cuban government didn't let anybody do that. They sent containers of food, of everything, they confiscated everything and they sold it later on the store. So where's the embargo? I'm a Cuban American. I want to bring back Cuba to my community. I want to build a school, I want to build a hospital. We have the money to do that. I cannot do it. The American people doesn't. I mean the American government will not say anything to me. It's the Cuban Communist Party that doesn't let me as a Cuban go back to Cuba and build that school, build a hospital. Because they don't want me to tell the Cuban people that you can do it if you're free, if you have freedom, because they want to give everything to you.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Well, let me ask you because, and this is one of the rare instances where we pre tape because you guys all had to fly in and have flights to catch. So I don't know when this runs if will have already gone down. But President Trump said that Cuba's next. I want to ask you because you were talking about the national security issue too because you let some Americans go. Oh, my heart breaks for Cuban people. It's terrible, but it's not our job. Like some people talk about Iran that way. But you were talking about the national security issue that a lot of people don't take into account. Maybe, maybe illuminate that for some people here who don't realize the severity of it.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
People don't understand the allegiance that Cuba had to Soviet Union.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Soviets had one of the best spy networks, probably still do. Who knows, kgb, the whole, the whole enchilada.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I mean half of them are drunks, but some of them are good.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
But they're good drunks. Yes, capable drunks. Cuba learned a lot of its tactics from the Soviet Union to this day. Cuban intelligence, and I was telling Stephen off camera, they're the Mossad of Latin America. People don't suspect them because we're a little poor island and we don't have money and all these things. But that's the perfect cover up to bypass everything, right? To be unsuspected. Cuba claims that the US is the important imperialist of the world. Right. When since Castro took power, Cuba has tried to invade 20 countries.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Right?
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Good point.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Who's the real imperialist? Right.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Can you like the most notable countries that maybe Angola,
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Angola, Congo, Nicaragua, Liberia, Venezuela.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Venezuela is the most significant one. When Mal got captured, why were 40 of his guardians of a Cuban?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Maduro was offended by Cubans.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
And just like Guevara, they didn't fight back. Like a.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Okay, high five.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah. But yeah, that is. Well, you know, actually like my woman who you met her adopt mama's Cuban. She, her first man, her first child was with a Russian. It was basically like an occupier there in Cuba. They were there and then one day gone. This is pre Facebook. She couldn't find it.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
That's how it is.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
It's like a love of her life just disappears.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
No, and as Americans, we care about immigration, for example, that, you know, people, you heard trend Aragua from Venezuela. You had all the Venezuelan exiles, the bad ones, you know, being in the country and being like doing bad stuff. Who made that happen? Cubans. Because Cuba went to Venezuela, destabilized Venezuela. Did the same thing with Nicaragua, trying to do the same thing with Mexico. So what happened with that? All these people trying to flee to a better place. They don't go to Cuba, they come to the US So you have a neighbor, a neighbor that is super bad and is, you know, doing everything bad to every everyone. And when they flee their country, they want to come to the US So think about it. If Venezuela was fine, Venezuelans wouldn't leave Venezuela to come here. If Cuba was fine, we will stay back in Cuba. But you see all these countries that are doing really bad. Look for the. Cuba is behind all of that.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
It's the head of the snake. I wanted to bring up. Adam Montes.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yes. That's in the Pentagon. For how long?
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
So Adam Montes, 20 years. A Cuban national spy infiltrating the Pentagon. The Pentagon of the United States as an Alice. She wasn't a janitor. She was an Alice for 20 years. How does that even happen in the United. The Pentagon. One more time. You know what I mean? She gets caught. She's not even Cuban born. She was in Puerto Rico. Puerto Rico. She got broken, brainwashed by. Correct.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I know. Cubans don't like Puerto Ricans.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
No, we do. We do.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
No, you don't.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Stereotypes.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
She gets caught. Animal. Again, not even a Cuban that she got brainwashed again by the intelligence. They asked her, why would you do this? And what's wrong with you? You're going to spend your life in jail. She was like, I would do it again any day for the Cuban Revolution. How brainwashed do you have to get?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I'll tell you.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Comparison. So it's a big part of it. Why they're dangerous too, I would imagine because they have nothing to lose. So I don't know if you know this, but very often in the United States People who are hiring folks to put out a hit. They'll hire Haitians. Why? Because 10 grand, they'll take it, send it to their family, and they'll happily live in prison because it's still better than Haitians.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
They're good.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Isn't that crazy?
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
It's very well known that you just get some Haitians, like, if it's not super important that you, you know, you're concerned with getting caught, like, just they'll do it. So with Cuba, how does that relate, you think, to the United States? For people here who maybe aren't thinking about it from a national security perspective, do you think, is it one of those things that something needs to be done in the interest of even the United States? Because a lot of people just go, who cares? Like you said, they're poor, they can't do anything.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
It has had to. It has been such a long time since intervention for national security has been needed. Ana Montes, not only is this a spy within the Pentagon, United States, but it doesn't end there. Right. We were speaking about Medicare fraud a lot of the times about institutions like FIU that have people that are connected to the revolution. These are American educational systems.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
They have brigade programs.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
They have brigade programs on as well, to train socially American socialists. American socialists. You guys can take the question, does
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
part of that include, by the way, also propaganda, like not just militarily, but train them to kind of sanitize a message?
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Yeah, the thing is that, I mean, there are things like the Vinceremos brigade is just one of them, and they take children with their parents and young people every single year, these programs, because they're part of the cultural exchange situation that they have with Cuba. So they have like an exception to go there on these trips. And they take them like Hassan went and they put them in these little Airbnb style houses and they go on guided trips and show them, look, this is where the elderly, of course, these are all prepared places. These are our healthcare institutions. These are the viejitos, like our elderly. These are the kids. Look at them, how they say. And so these trips are planned here. These people are taken to Cuba, they're trained, and then they come back here to continue to be militant. And that's how you see the socialist, the democratic socialists of America and all these institutions growing rapidly here. And when you look in the background and you kind of follow the thread, you realize that a lot of these people are participating in brigade programs that go to Cuba to get trained on
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
how to be, you know, who did that Karen Bass.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Karen Bass is a perfect example.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
What a. Yeah.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
No, seriously, she's part of the Vince Said Emmos brigade.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Talking about people like Spencer Press. Reality starts like, yeah. As opposed to a trained domestic terrorist. Let's be honest. That's what she was doing there. She went there for construction.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Stephen, how is immediate needs to invade the island? You have the mayor of one of the most major metropolitan cities trained by socialist communists in Cuba. How is that not. I mean, I don't know. I think that's fucking insane.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
No, Aditya, I think it's insane that
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Tom Morello is allowed to walk freely and name his band Rage against the Machine while wearing the shirt of a fascist totalitarian. I think that he needs to be. I think he needs to be questioned and I think he needs to be deported.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Two of the closest spy bases from the foreign governments and are in Havana. One is called Ludes. It's from China. That is a listening base and it's on the north of Havana and it's a spy base from China. They have spy bases installed in Cuba 90 miles from key West. Yep, yep. I mean, what happened? In the future we would have a president like Donald Trump who is strong. And you get Cuba invaded, for example, by China or Russia and they get control of the island by really, really control of the island. Now you have Cuba. Cuba is in the middle of the biggest routes for ships and boats to go into, into the Gulf of America to be here in the us so you're gonna have these people in there, like at all. Yeah. So you may have another Hormuz thing 90 miles from. From Key West. Yeah, because now these people control the area.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
So people don't even make like you just mentioned Venezuela and Cuba with their oil. Like, okay, now let's add a layer to that. I believe it was Shell and it was either Shell and Exxon, Chevron. Chevron, yeah. It was 9 billion and $1 billion because they built all the infrastructure for the Venezuelan, you know, oil infrastructure. And then they couldn't maintain it. They just took it. International courts ruled you owe them $10 billion. So they go, thank you United States. We're going to take your infrastructure, private companies, not the government. And then we're going to use it to prop up communist enemies that are national security threat. We are funding our own enemies. And that's why when people just go, oh, Warhawk. It's like, no, hold on a second. $10 billion going to a regime that wants to subvert the country. And I always answer people when they say, well, why did all these people. It's kind of typical, right? Like red state Americans and their hearts in the right place to go. Well, if these people don't like it, you're like, why don't they get back to Cuba? I'm like, no, no, that's. Let's answer that question. To subvert this country. They're here because they want to subvert it. What do you think someone who says the United States sucks Castro regime is great, and they're still here. They're here for one reason, to turn us into that regime.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Exactly.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
And people just gloss past and then you have a. You have a nation that wants to subvert it. And then you have sympathetic socialist Americans, like mayor of Los Angeles. How is this woman not in shackles when you think about it?
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
So again, you have to think 20 countries since Castro took power, they have tried to subvert, to invade, to, in whatever manipulative ways. Maduro trained in Cuba in the 70s. That's. That's another leader, Aaron Bass.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
They.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
That's the. Cuba is the head of the snake.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
You go to South America and you're going to see Lula da Silva in Brazil, you're going to see in Bolivia, you're going to see Kishner in Argentina, you're going to see Maduro and Chavez in Venezuela, Ortega, what happened in Mexico, all of them. You follow all that.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
What is the common fact?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
It's going to end up in Cuba. All that is going to end up in Cuba. You saw on the Biden administration where the border was like an open Park.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah, 12 to 20 million.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Exactly. You saw how many Iranians and Chinese national military age came to the border. They landed first in Venezuela, for example, and Venezuela gave them Venezuelan names, fake id. So they show up into the border, Iranians, and they were like, Martinez, Pedro, he's from Iran, not from Venezuela. That was trained in Cuba. Chinese militaries, they go and they train in Cuba. And it happened when we captured Maduro on January 3rd. Everybody that was protecting Maduro was Cuban. Imagine that. Imagine Venezuela used to be a Cuban colony.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Well, it's also, you think about this. Let's just do it on the flip side, because people say, where would people line up on Iran? I think they're reasonable positions. I think replacing Donald Trump with a Democrat party is absurd. But even if you look at Cuba, let's just reverse this. What do you think the Castro regime would do if someone from Cuba, let's say a mayor somewhere in Cuba, they found out had gone to the United States? And done work with the Republican Party.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Jail.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
They would be in jail forever, even if it's 20 years later, disappeared. But we just allow this person to be mayor of a huge American city. And by the way, Cuba, like, results the single highest unsheltered homeless population because many of them are sheltered in New York because it's colder. You look at the results, you look at the budget deficit, they're implementing what it is that they've praised and they've worked construction for the Cuban government. They are trying to subvert this country. And the fact that we allow it, when, of course, our enemies would never permit it, It's a slow walk to a demise of this country.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
That's what the left does really good.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
This is the waiting game. It's a slow. It's the drip. Poison. Yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
And they go. And when the left see something that is a threat to them, they will attack it instantly. Us, we saw something. We're like, you know, that's wrong. Don't do it. And we don't, you know, we don't get as passionate as we should do. That's why us as Cuban, every time we see somebody talking about Che Guevara, about socialism, we just go like nuts against them. Yeah, we don't care. We don't care because we know what it is we made our family here in the US I have three children that are Americans, and I don't want them to suffer the same thing that I did. So that's why I try to protect them from that. That ideology. I teach them how to work for your things. I mean, people tend to say that we have rights when we come to the. No, it's a privilege for us to be here in America. It's a privilege. And we need to. People need to understand freedom is a privilege.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
And when you don't have it. I remember police knocking on my door on my house when I was nine years old because I made a joke at school about Fidel. And people were like, I want to take your mom to jail, because what was the joke?
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
How many Fidels does it take to
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
screw in a light bulb?
Day (Spanglish Generation)
He was a comedian from the beginning.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
There was a song what to do
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
at four to be.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
There was a. There was a song in Cuba that they teach you how to sing in school because, oh, oh, this is great. Education, Education. When you go to school, they don't teach you, like, F from family. That F stand from family.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
They like, F stand from fidelity. Of course, S is not for son. It's for soldier, for Militia. As for socialism, that's what they teach you in school when you're learning how to read. Because it's a machiavelic type of system that they would teach you, like, they would, like, make you in this type of little red monster, that you're a communist since the beginning. So they had a song, like a lullaby that is called, like, little Cuban Kid, what do you want to do? Que querez a ser. A better world. Like Fidel dream. Like a. Like, you know, like a better word. That Fidel Dream. Right? And I was like, little Cuban kid, what you want to do? Get a knife and kill Fidel.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Okay, that's not so much a joke as it is a threat. But,
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
You know, and I said that I was singing that little song, and they went to my house and I talked to my mom, like, you want to see your mother again? Sing that song again. She's going to go to jail. And I'm nine years old. So, you know, like, these type of things.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I love how in your story, the soldiers in Cuba sound like Scarface.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Exactly. I want to relate.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
I want to relate to the accent.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I want to relate to the.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah, that's. You know, what's funny is you say that that really just has. I mean, it has a huge whiff of North Korea, you know, the supreme dealer leader. But it's just like you said, 90 miles.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
No, people have frames of Fidel and Castro in the house, and the frames. Clean it, Jos.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Fidel. I am Fidel.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
And you have to clean the thing. This is your house. This is your house.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
How many. How many people in Cuba then? Because here's the question. Let's say the United States were to do anything, intervene. The problem is in North Korea, a lot of them believe it. Like, a lot of them believe that. Well, Kim Jong Il and now Kim Jong Un. They believe he got 11 holes in one in his first game at golf, which to me is like. It's a crazy lie to tell. Like, I'm a God. I got 11 holes in one. Like, start a little higher. How many people in Cuba do you think believe it and support the regime versus Just don't speak out out of fear. Because in North Korea, you'd have a problem where a lot of people actually believe the propaganda.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Every time the Cuban has had an opportunity to protest, you see it on the street chanting, freedom. I'm down with the government. I just see it on the street. So I don't want to be absolute. I don't want to say 100 of the population, but I would say 90.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Me too.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
10% of the population has allegiance for one of many reasons. One, either fear. Two, they benefit to some degree.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
It's not convenient for the regime to fall.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Convenient. Exactly. Or the third, they're actually retarded and still believe in the communist ideology that has brainwashed them.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
They're like they're indoor cats who are afraid to get put out.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
And that's 10%. 90% of the country is in ruin. And this is a country that was once crowned the Pearl of the Caribbean. Right. We know when they had tight relations with the US and this is why Cubans love America so much. A lot of the prosperity from pre Castro Cuba was thanks to the proximity. Again, proximity to the US Is either Cuba's blessing or Cuba's curse.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Yeah, right.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
And we benefit. We have never even been to the island as Cubans. We benefited from American economy to such a degree. And it was this. The symbiotic, you know, South Florida and Cuba type of relationship.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Just look for Cuba before.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Exactly. It was. The GDP in Cuba was, I think, among the highest in Latin America. Behind the U.S. exactly behind. I mean, I'm sorry, Next, the doctors in Cuba. It had the highest per capita amount of doctors in Latin America as well. You would fly into Havana for modern cares at the time. Right. How do you lose all this?
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
This is why Cuban Americans, Meyer Lansky had a little bit to do with it. There was corruption beforehand too. But of course, the same thing can be said about Cambodia everywhere.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Yeah, there's corruption in the US but it's so much.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
If you're gonna have the term communist. No, exactly. You have corrupt. You have a corrupt government. Where Meyer Lansky was this, you know, Jewish. I'm sure you guys know there's actually a great film, Harvey Keitel, not great, good film. He plays Meyer Lansky, like the casinos and stuff in Cuba. But you know what? It has actually a very similar parallel to Cambodia. A lot of people don't realize that Cambodia, pre Pol Pot, like a lot of American celebrities would go there and they would have resorts. And then there's some corruption. People benefit in the resort. More people in the government maybe get their beak a little bit more wet. So they trade it for communism, where you get the same level of corruption now.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Add poverty, now you have equality. Everyone's miserable.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Regarding Communist, we have a saying in Miami, especially in Miami, about communism. When the Berlin Wall went down, where people run to from. You didn't see anybody running to the communist side. They're running from the communist side to the other side. Yeah, so that's one of the examples. It's a failure of a system. It should be abolished for the eternity. Communism, socialism. But if they promise something you for free, don't take it because somebody else is picking up that bill. And it's not the politicians, right? Because the Kasser family, they have billions of dollars. Maduro billions of dollars, Chavez billions of dollars. You look to all of them, they have Swiss bank accounts, everybody has money. People always end up paying the bill.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Well, let me ask you, why do you think it is though, that Cuban Americans tend to be, I mean, it's the most reliable conservative Republican voting bloc really, in the United States demographically. Why is that not mirrored, for example, in Venezuelan Americans and Nicaraguan Americans? Because they come from countries, in some cases, you could argue it's not full fledged communism, it's just a bad economy. But why do you, what do you think it is that is so unique about Cuban Americans in comparison to a lot of other Latin American use the term Hispanic Americans, that they often come and they still vote Democrat or they
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
don't have for us in survival, guns, Many, many of them. For example, you see in sports, Cuban baseball players, they have to like defect going on leaving Cuba, on a raft, on a speedboat. You see people from other countries, they can get coming to the US they can even go back to their countries. For us, it's survival. You stay there, you die. You go back there thinking different, you die. So for us, it's like North Korea. You put the best example. We are as close as North Korea as possible.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
I think that in our community also what makes a big difference, a lot of people say, how come you guys get, you know, you had wet foot, dry foot, how come you get privileges, immigration privileges? And people also have to understand that we have had people in our community that had made it, have made it a goal to become politicians, to have influence in, you know, the law making and the policy making in this country. So we have had a lot of good examples that have led the way and everybody has kind of funneled through that channel. So I think that's why a lot of Cubans survival. But we've had people that have made it a goal to say, you guys, this is it. And you know, we're not blind. We see it like we know the difference. When you see the Democratic Party that has completely sold out to the far left, it's no longer the Democrat, like the Democrats today are the conservatives of yesterday. Like, when we see the big difference we clearly see that they've sold out to this ideology that we escaped from. And so there's really not a matter. There's not a question of what should we do because, you know, should we get like better health care or. We know the difference. We know that whatever they're selling, we're not buying because that's exactly what we fled from. So this is the way.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I just wonder why people like from Nicaragua or Honduras or Ecuador don't have the same.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
I think it's a lot of. We also have been 60 some years, 78. And Nicaragua never fell to the status that Cuba fell.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Yeah, that's a big one. The fact that Cuba has been down for so long.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Venezuela was 27, I think.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Right. It's still 27. Iran 47 and Cuba 67. That's why I remember it, I think for a lot of the reasons. Yeah, it's. It's such a long oppression that people are just starving, for lack of a better word, for a better life. Right. But I also think that there's something within the DNA of when Cuba was capitalist and in such tight relations with the U.S. the U.S. and Cuba partnership was unique. There was no. It did not, again, proxy make the
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
contrast, but it provides more context.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Exactly right. And we saw, or at least our ancestors saw what was probable. Right. What hard work and good neighboring can bring someone. Right. So then that still exists within the blood. You just go 90 miles north and you can do it if you can survive the fucking trek.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Our parents, aunts, uncles, I'm sure you guys can relate. They'll tell you, before the revolution, we had apples and we had this and the Americans brought this and that. And so we all grew up, up with people from the older generation saying how good it was when the Americans, you know, so it's like we kind of have that, like you said, like in our DNA.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
And I think that for example, the Cuban exile, all of them from 1959 to today, we have to like leave the country because of the situation of the regime. Most of this country, for example, Nicaragua, Venezuela, maybe they have people that are left before or they travel for other situations. But for us, again, it was a survival matter. And all of us, we know people that got killed by the regime. Somebody uncle, somebody's grandfather got assassinated by the regime. Another thing I came to into the US in 2001. And when I left Cuba, I came legally because, I mean, my dad asked for us so we can come into the U.S. so the Cuban Communist Party went into my house and they did an inventory of even the glasses that we have, of the lamps and everything, and everything was to be returned back to the state. I was very poor, so it didn't mind as much for me. But we know people that have to leave, like businesses, their entire farms, everything taken from them, like, taken from them then everything. So it's a lot of pain. Now we come into the US and we see freedom, so we see the promises of freedom. That's why every time we see somebody that when Donald Trump was running for president, Communists were betting on Biden, they were betting on Kamala. So we're looking at what these people that hurt me so much are backing. I'm going to go against you all the way, of course. So if tomorrow we have somebody running for the president, and it's, for example, John Miller, and against. John Miller is running a dog, but that dog is capitalist and it's against communism, I'm gonna vote for the dog. I will never vote for somebody that defends socialism because it takes everything from you. Everything doesn't leave you anything.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
I want to say something regarding what you just said about taking inventory before leaving. A lot of people don't know that when Cubans leave, especially like you left, announced, you know, they claimed you. When we left Cuba, because we came through a program in 1989, after Jesse Jackson went to Cuba, to advocate for the political prison, something we can thank Jesse Jackson, at least my family to advocate for, specifically a Seventh Day Adventist pastor that was imprisoned. And we are Seventh Day. My dad is a retired Seventh Day Adventist minister. And. And we. Fidel was like, what do you mean, nobody can leave? Of course people can leave. And so he signed, you know, the okay for certain families to leave, clergy families. We were one of those families. And we knew because the people that were leaving around that time, inventory was taken of their stuff. And they couldn't even take family photographs. So every family photograph that we have, my dad gave to a Mexican pastor that went to visit Cuba months before and told them, please take these photographs of my family to Mexico, because when we leave, we won't be able to take them. Sure enough, we were stripped of everything personal, every heirloom, everything. And we were able to get the family photographs once we arrived to the United States almost a year later. This Mexican pastor brought them. I don't know if he brought them or he, you know, mailed them. We got them through him. They were in Mexico because we would have been stripped of everything personal. That's the level of disengagement and the level of repression. Like, it's an emotional kind of, like, disdain that they just. When you leave, you're like.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
They take your identity.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
That's what they call you, the maggots.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah.

Yeah, you're a maggot.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
You're nothing.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
You leave, you're a traitor. We'll take your money. Of course, if you want to send those dollars and you want to say those, we'll take it. You can, you know, recharge those phones over here and keep us running. But, yeah, we'll keep your family as, you know, Reynes hostages and you can go. But you. You suck.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Are there a lot of Seventh Day Adventists in Cuba?
Day (Spanglish Generation)
The. The church thrives spiritually, not as it should be. A lot of pastors, the. The systems for their pay is delayed. They're not. They're not. It's really crazy.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I don't know if you know. Do you know the story of Carla Homolka in Montreal? So she. There was a film, Laura Prepon. It was a horrible, awful story. Was a guy, okay, who kidnapped people, kidnapped women, raped them and killed them. And his accomplice was this woman, Carl Homoca, where she would lure them in and she'd videotape it, and she videotaped the rape and killing of her own sister. And I say this because she struck a plea deal in Canada and she got out. And I saw her one time, actually, where I grew up, on the south shore of Montreal, and she was with a Haitian guy, and she was a Seventh Day Adventist. So I knew that there were a lot of Haitians who were Seventh Day Adventists. I'm not saying Seventh Day Adventists are Carla Homalka. The point is, after she got the plea deal, she came out and turned her life to God. And I was like, oh, I found out there were a lot of Haitians. I didn't know if that was a thing where they specifically went.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
And for at some point, you know, it became okay to be openly religious. But for some time, you know, after
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
the vote went to Cuba.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Right, but before that, it was Juan
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Pablo John Paul ii.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
John Paul.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
After John Paul II went to Cuba, they let you demonstrate it publicly. But before that, Castro was a religion, right?
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
No, of course.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah, Supreme Leader.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
But think about what you just said. Like, oh, go ahead, we take your identity, we take your culture, and you'll provide the phones for us or whatever you want to. Everything about solar panelism. And this is why Cubans, because we know the pattern. We see the guys behind the whole empathy. It's information warfare. You disguise and it's this long, drawn out game of chess. Think about when Castro released so many people and Mariel, all this. Go, go, go. What is he doing? He knows that capitalism north of. Of Cuba will be supplying Rebecca.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Feeding still the second source of income of the country. The second one.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah. It's like you guys have literally China and Russia. You don't need it. If communism works, Cuba, everything grows there. It's the perfect climate for many years. You're benefits, including women. Let's be honest, everyone there, like, it's like you have an unbelievable concentration of athletes. You can grow anything. Humidors are meant to mimic the human climate because anything you want to grow can grow there. They have the two biggest trading partners outside the United States. In other words, if communism worked for Russia or China, you'd be great. That's also why I want to get into the timing of this right now. Because Russia, a big sort of a big entity that's propped up Cuba right now, they're busy fighting their own battles and they're not able to support Cuba as much. So they're in a weakened state. State. But it's like you guys should be able to make it work. Why are you. You shouldn't want to engage in any trade. The evil capitalist.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Right.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Just move on.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Don't take a running.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah, but it's a.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
They can't because it would empower the people. They would need labor, which quote, unquote, nobody talks about this. They bring labor from India to work on those hotels and they overpay them. And don't Cubans steal the materials?
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
That's a great point.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Y. Yeah, they bring. They bring labor from other countries to
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
see how bad you have to be that you're less concerned about Indian stealing. You realize all the credit cards scamming you get a call that's a fraudulent call asking for your number. It's an Indian.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Well, who's the talk about that? They bring Indians to work. They put them in, you know, like homes there to work on these. On these hotels. And they don't pay the Cuban workers because Cuban labor sucks. Because who wants to work for the government for X amount of money when
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
you know you want to build a. A hotel and your house is falling down.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
So what the Cuban guy is going to do, Start taking stuff to the house to build his own house. So that's the way they outsource. That's communism. Yeah, exactly.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Sucks because it goes against human nature. Right. This is why when you own a home, you take better care of it. Than a renter. Yeah, Right. It doesn't matter how good you are or how empathetic you are, if you're a renter, you're never gonna take care of what is not yours or what is ours as good as what is mine.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
And all these people that think that socialism in Cuba is so beautiful, go there, live there.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
But don't go as a tourist. Go and leave there. Yeah. This guy that was arrested, you know him, the guy from YouTube, Nick Shirley.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Nick Shirley, yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
So you have a month ago. You have a month ago, a fleet of people that went over there. Yeah. The flotilla, Everything was amazing. They let them film, do anything. Why did they let this guy do it?
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah, of course. Yeah.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Confiscated his cameras.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I mean, they tried to control everything.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Do you see that flotilla, by the way, going to. Was it. Was it Gaza or was it Iran? Where they were dancing like. They were dancing like terrorist whores, like strippers.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
The second one going to Cuba. The guy lost. And who. Who they call the American government to find them.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Yeah, yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
See right over there, man cubist over there.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Go over there. That brings me to an important point here, because you see what's going on in Iran now. Whatever your opinions are in Iran, here is a fact. The last time we had any polling available to us, at least 80% of people in Iran are obviously vehemently opposed to the regime. And you see all these videos of people saying, don't. Don't stop the bombs. I'm Iranian. This is what I've been praying for. I know it's going to come with some pain, but this needs to be done. Do you think there's that level of resolve for the Cuban people? In other words, if something needs to be done? Or do you think that it would be one of those things where there's a timeframe of two months, and the second it starts getting a little bit too tough, the Cubans would turn against.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
You don't need to bomb Cuba to.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Well, I know you need to bomb them. There's going to be some discomfort.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
You just need to park on the US Aircraft carrier outside of Havana. That's it done. You'll see the flyby. The flyby of an F16.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
So pitch that to the American people. What's the benefit to the American people? Because, like, that's expensive, right.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
You're going to have a prosperous neighbor. You're going to have your closest neighbor to the south beside Mexico is Cuba. You'll have a prosperous neighbor who's going to have an infrastructure, who is working you need to build hotels, you need to build infrastructure. For example, Home Depot, Amazon, all of those big companies, they don't have a presence in Cuba because it doesn't exist for them. So jobs, you're going to have a bunch of jobs, you have a bunch of opportunity to invest and to grow. Number two, you're going to raise the threat, that is to have China and Russia 90 miles from your southern border, which is Key West. You're going to have a beautiful place to go vacation, because Cuba is going to be amazing. You have so many little keys and islands and everything. And you're going to have a neighbor that is going to be prosperous, going to help you shape the entire continent. Because once we're free, once Venezuela has freedom too, and Venezuela is prosperous also, you're going to have less people coming into the United States to be like, you know, depending on the American government to be successful. Yeah.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yes.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
I personally have thought about this a million times and my prediction is I do believe that Trump will secure either a territory, I don't think I'm from a state territory, or some sort of weird new hybrid protectorate type of thing where it's ironclad because Cuba was already protectorate. And look where we're at, right? There's many benefits to Cuba outside of capitalism.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Right.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Cuba has no oil, but it has the Cuban diaspora, which is among the most successful Hispanics within the United States per capita. Right. We have the highest amount of lobbying influence outside of the Jews. We have the.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
But that might not be seen as a good thing, by the way, considering the current climate.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Yeah, considering. Correct.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah. No, no, but, but lobbying, but generally not for handouts. But yeah, right.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
But yeah, yeah, Very, very different. I mean, think about the Cuban, you know, our Cuban values, if we do have a lobby that influences is for American values. It's not for any, any sort of weird. You got to think about the benefits in terms of. Well, just look at what Cuba was to the US Prior to that.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Right?
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
How much did the US benefit? Right. How much capital did they gain from their industries on the island? And far more than that. You're looking at Trump's strategy, right? He wants Greenland and he's talking about Panama Canal and he's talking about Cuba. The common factor, there is passageways for routes, right. If we control Greenland, control Panama, the third one that's the biggest one is the Cuban influenced ones, right? Cuba doesn't necessarily control them. It's the one with passage, the Yucatan Channel and Florida Straits, right? You control that with all of the tanker movement that we have in the Gulf of America now making America US Energy dominate. Right. You don't need an island there that is either currently hostile or can be if they are free to intervention from a foreign enemy.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
If you are trying to make the Gulf of America the new Strait of Hormuz, Cuba needs to be locked in. Right. Cuba also has the largest reserves of nickel and cobalt, I think the top three in the world which is needed for AI and all tech.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Trump is big on it hasn't been touched, it hasn't been the ability.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
I believe some guy was telling me that there was mines being built and the regime was so incompetent. The mines were left by China. They were left half assed and there's essentially just like the rotting. They're just like these half ass. Like.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
There's a lot of incentives. I think it's like it's not the same as Texas, but when Texas wouldn't depend it it was a show.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Right.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Because it's too close to superpowers.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Right.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Same thing with Cuba. It can be either the US can be its biggest blessing or its biggest curse. And I think Cuba should be.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Let me ask you because you're talking about China, but what kind of. You mentioned Venezuela earlier and I mean several other South American countries. What kind of a ripple effect do you think would have, let's say to secure Cuba where it's like, okay, now we're going to eliminate their influence with other sort of, I guess you could say antagonist nations. Do you think that that would have a significant impact on Venezuela, on perhaps being a domino?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Also on Brazil.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah, well, Brazil, yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Medical fraud, I know in Brazil is China. The Chinese presence in Brazil is huge and Brazil is a monster. It's super big, full of resources. So once you decapitated the head of the snake, which is Cuba right now, then they will follow a pattern. Argentina is doing it with Milei. They're doing a really good job. Bolivia now is doing it too. So Peru also. We've seen this country of South America shifting to the right because the left has only bring misery down there. But Cuba still the. Oh yeah, we can do it because Cuba is doing it. Yeah.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I'm worried that it won't be long lasting though in, in South America. So like Argentina, Malay. Yeah, but it can switch. I mean for example, the closest thing you might have to Cuba and I'm going to get flack for this. But we did the Great Diktoff where we took dictators throughout history and we had brackets and we had Hitler vs. Mao and Stalin vs. Pol Pot. And I felt bad putting them in there because Pinochet wasn't all wrong.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Now what I mean by that is
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
you have a lende before that communism. And what happens in South America often is they go, okay, communism, because it's very selfish vote. It's a very selfish vote. And they go, oh, this is terrible. Pinochet. People love Pinochet. And they go, okay, we're done with that now. And they, it swings back because they don't have the constitution that we have here in the United States. Yeah, we're the longest standing constitutional republic in the world and that includes Europe because they just reformat everything, you know, after a few decades. So the concern there is even if Cuba, let's say we have a really strong relationship with them, South America has just tended. It's been a pendulum. I mean, look at Brazil.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Exactly.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Brazil went one and then it went. There was corruption in the election.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
But for us, okay, the answer to that is why then Cubans, when we come into the United States, never go back to being communist or never go back to vote for the left.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
That's a big difference because we know what happened. So that's why I'm 100% sure that once we're free, we would first make illegal the Communist party. And we're never going to go back to it. And the best example is what we do when we get into the US we look at the left and we go as far from it as possible. So that's why once we get rid of this cancer that is the Castro regime, I'm pretty sure we're not going back to that.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah, Cuba. I just wonder about the other countries.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
We suffer it.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Yeah, but there's an influence, right?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Exactly.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Why?
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
What reasoning does Cuba have to stay? Because you can make communism illegal.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Right.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Socialism is right there. Or just very left views. Right. If things ever get bad enough where poverty ensues and this is not in the immediate years, I say 30, 40, 50 years down the line.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Right.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
You're not always going to have a beautiful economy. There's times, of course, you know, what stops people from entertaining the, the future generations. I have forgotten because look at the Cuban American children here. I have friends that are leftists, like, bro, your parent came on a, on a, on a wheel like the younger
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
ones statistically are more right. It was during the era of Obama. A lot of Cubans went left.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Correct.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
But that was every demographic because people thought, okay, charismatic lefties, you know, he's gay.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
There's, there's still lefties, though, which is insane. It's like why your parents were born in Cuba.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
You see what I'm saying?
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Saying, like, these are future generations.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
We fight with those every day.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah, we have to.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
This is why I stay with the stance. There has to be some permanent, ironclad
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
US Cuba, but we have to be leading the dance.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yes, exactly.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
I want to say, I know that we always talk about incentives, you know, material, economic, which is amazing and we should. But I just also want to say to the parents out there who are concerned about the. Their children, and there is a whole bunch of parents taking their kids out of public school and homeschooling them because they're, you know, fighting with the school boards across the country because this ideology is like taking over this gender ideology. I want to let them know that Cuba is directly responsible for educating the people and transforming the school systems in the United States of America. So they have to understand how dangerous it is for Cuba to continue to be communist in 90 miles away and training the people that are converting and transforming the schools, their children.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Expound on that a little bit. For people who maybe don't know. When you say training a lot of those in the educational system, what do you mean?
Day (Spanglish Generation)
A lot of people that belong to the school boards here, a lot of people that design the lesson boards here, a lot of. A lot of books that the kids are exposed to, the way things are worded, they're all designed and written by people that have a training in, I wouldn't say communism, but Marxism. They have a Marxist underling, you know, so when you send your child off to school and they come back with these weird ideas, you may not even think that there's a little island in the Caribbean that may be linked to this situation. And because Cuba has made such a good job, it's sadly such an excellent job at propaganda and intelligence and basically detaching themselves publicly. So people don't even suspect that a lot of this is coming directly from Cuba. A lot of the programs, again, those brigades, I want to emphasize, they train people to go to Cuba. Americans go to Cuba. Americans can't go to Cuba. Yes, through these programs, they are exempt from these exceptions. They can go to Cuba, get training, and they come back here and they belong to organizations that get funded by the federal government and they impart lessons and they instruct and they do zoom calls and they go to the schools and they involve the kids in these clubs and your children are exposed to this and the background usually ends up with somebody that went on some trip and got instructed in how wonderful socialism is.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
And it's, it's so evil because of course they don't allow. The first thing they do in communist countries is they get rid of the, the gates. They're like, you're not useful. You're not going to populate. Arrested them, executed them. But they export it here, just like China weed. But they, they have all the giant grow farms that come out of a couple of banks.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I want to be honest, I find it super funny and hilarious when I see a gay person wearing a Che Guevara shirt with a rainbow. I'm laughing at Che Guevara right now because this guy in Cuba, and this is, this is true, you can like, you can read, you can read. You, you want to know about the subject? Just read and get educated about it. This guy in the, in Cuba, he made concentration camps for gays. Yes, concentration camps for gays.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah. You work the gay away.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I mean, and he sent you to the concentration camp to be straight. Imagine that.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
By the way, it didn't work. It was about two weeks before it turned into the Village People. But no, that's why the shirt we have is, you know, socialism is for, is for fixing. Yeah, give an idea. I came up with that shirt. I was 14 years old. I came with the idea, I sketched it out and YouTube said, you can't sell this. And I said, well, it's not on YouTube, it's on our merch store. They said, well, this is what we're catching you on. And so we put it in a mystery box. And the, what you're talking about, the reason, right, the socialist, the revolutionary fist Olympus Socialism is for figs. We have a fig leaf was so that people would ask the question, say, that's offensive. I go, is it more offensive than concentration camps and execution?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Every time I see, every time I see a person wearing a Che Guevara shirt, for me it's the same effect as for example, a Jew presidencia Hitler shirt.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah, absolutely.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
It's the same for us because this guy, this guy wasn't even Cuban. He was Cuban and he killed and
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
they caught him in Bolivia.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
There's stories, there's stories. There's a series of movies. They're in Spanish, they're called Plantados is about the Cuban prisoners from that time when Che Guevara was in charge of the, of that.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
They're called what, like a banana?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
When this happened, the Cuban political prisoners, by the way, as of today, as we're Speaking right now, 1,250 Cuban prisoners are right now in jail. One of them is a minor. He's 16 years old. His name is Jonathan Munir. He's only 16 years old. And he's a political preacher in Cuba.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
What did he do? He just spoke out against government.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
He just spoke out against government. He went out, they were doing a protest, and he went out and they caught him and they threw him in jail. This guy is 16 years old and he's in jail. So the plantados was a Cuban political prisoner. Because Cuba, they're saying they don't have political prisoners. So what they do is they put everything in the same with murders, with thieves. And the Plantados, they were like, we are political prisoners. We're not going to wear an orange suit. We're going to. You know, we're different because we are imprisoned because of ideas. And they didn't eat, they didn't march, they didn't do anything. So the Cuban regime, they didn't put them into regular cell blocks. They call it like drawers. The cell block is like 4ft wide and 10ft long. They have to be standing in there inside of the other thing. So they should watch these movies. And Che Guevara, for example, you go to jail to see your. Your, your relative, and he's like, oh, what's the name of your. Your son? Oh, Thomas. Okay, beautiful. I'm gonna check. Yeah, you can see him at 3. 8, 3, 3pm so you go back, you go back at 3pm he was dead. So he would just kill the guy so you can see him. Yeah, you know, stuff like that. And then musicians, gay people, people that didn't think about the revolution. They would send it to concentration camps. Religious people, religious to work. They have lo puerlo fortivos. They did communities of people that didn't like the revolution because there were so many. And they segregated to zones in Cuba and they have to live there.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
The people with HIV were sick, everything.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
And you wear in that shirt as pride of revolution. You want to go against the system? I have no idea. You have no idea? You weren't a killer.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
That's why these people are just very unserious people. How are you going to take a socialist seriously like this? It's Palestinians for gays, for us for Palestinians. Are you crazy?

Well, it's the same thing. I said if you want to understand it. And I've been, I've been just banging this drum for months now because I, I think there's. Somebody said we're simplifying because people try. I constantly get people going. Well, I don't understand how can they say, okay, we have an lgbt, but then they support Palestine or I don't understand how can they say that they want us to support Ukraine, but they don't want us to do this in Iran. I go, look, it's. If you want to know how the left it is Marxism, they just view oppressor, oppressed, America bad, because successful.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
They don't care.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Cuba good. They don't take into account right, wrong, good, evil. It's you have more, therefore you're bad.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
But that's why they're retarded and low iq because if you cannot see through that right, if you cannot see the pattern of there's no, there's no right. The only rhyme or reason is oppressor and non oppressed. And that's it discounts nuance. That discounts history. It counts knowledge. So how are you, how are you just blindly believing something? You, you literally are low IQ and you're not gonna survive.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
You're gonna die off if tomorrow a kid.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
That's why they require force. Yeah, they would die off if not for the procurement of force.

Exactly.

You see,
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
you see a kid on a sea and the kid is drowning and then a shark coming back, he's gonna eat the kid. And then Donald Trump is running, he saves the Kid, take it out of the water. They're gonna start marching because sharks are dying of hunger.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Right. First off, I don't think if a bull shark was in a lake, it would have to be a bull shark.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
But it's under. That's why I changed it to a C. No, it's.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
It's absolutely. It is true.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I mean.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I mean, it's. It's really sad. Okay, let's look, because I know we've. I could just go on for a very long time. I have a lot of.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
We're going with time, right?
Day (Spanglish Generation)
What time do we
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
say?
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I also, by the way, I. I read somewhere. I can't find it anymore. I don't remember where. I read this in a book. Maybe you could tell me if, you know, there's something to this that Che Guevara broke down. I believe it was the north wall to, like, his office so he could watch the firing squad.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Okay.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
That he actually personally was, unlike Hitler, he was a personal sadist who had enjoyed watching the execution.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I don't know. Sorry.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
So I remember reading about this, and there was someone who was a historian talking about it. I just. It's one of those things, you know, radio days, pre. Everything online.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
I mean, he was twisted in many ways. So it doesn't. It's not. It's not out of the. Out of the norm or question.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Well, he did brag before. I mean, if you look at the Nuremberg trials, you have some people who are indignant, but some people are, like, very regretful or some people who tried to minimize it. Che Guevara said, execute without trial.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Of course we will.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
He continued to.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
He.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
He liked it.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
He said it. He said it. We do have a story of a family member of us that was in jail with Che Guevara, and he was passing by, talking to people, and then a family member was there, and Che Guevara asked the person next to him, where are you from? He mentioned he was from Villa Clara, which is one of the province in Cuba that he was fighting to liberate. And he's like, oh, you're from Villa Clara, are you not a communist? Shot him in the spot. Like that. Like that. And yes, these people are always unarmed,
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
though, by the way, because I always say, you know, everyone knows how they
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
feel when they caught him.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
When they caught him, fully loaded rifle, brand new. He still had the price tag on it. Said, I'm worth more to you alive than dead.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
He was. He was crying.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
He was crying.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Like a little crying. Yeah. And I'm guess Who gave him away?
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Guess who gave Che Guevara away? Yeah, well, I mean, I know the Bolivians he was found in Bolivian.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
His buddy.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Oh, really? Oh, yeah, that's right.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Of course, they didn't include that in Motorcycle Diaries.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Of course.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I don't think so. Well, there's Motorcycle Diaries then. Then there was that one with Benicio del Toro.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Che.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
It was like two movies. It was way too long. Right. And it was all horseshit.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
No, we don't.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Just like the spy network.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah, exactly. The spy network. All that.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I was banned from my. One of my. I dated a girl from high school, college, five years. I was banned from. For a period of time from her uncle's house because he told me I should watch Motorcycle Diaries. And I said he was a. I was like, really? You really think that? I was like. He was like, oh, he went to kill. I was like, oh, really? You went there. I'm sure you went to nice hotel, right? It was great. Do you know what, Jacob? And I was 16 and he was like, you're disrespectful. You're not allowed in my house. He had a point. But you would hear Canadians all the time. Because I will tell you this, Canadians are a conquered people and they go
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
to Cuba a lot.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Can I take the interviewer position? Really quick to ask you how it is that you just, from such a young age, rejected the Canadian. Kind of like, I was always a prick.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I was always a prick. I was raised. I've talked about this quite a bit. My. My dad always taught me how to think. So we always had these. You know, Ronald Reagan said all. All great change. I think he said, starts at the dinner table. My dad would always have these conversations. I can tell you the first time that I realized I was right wing. I've told the story. This is remedial, but it was. I had a drama teacher, I'll just say it. Mrs. Johndraw in seventh grade, who was talking about how we need to give the land back to Native Americans. And I just come from history class. We're in Quebec. We had the Algonquins and the Iroquois, and they were warring. One tribe was nomadic, one tribe was sedentary. And I said to her, I said, well, which one do we give it back to? And she said, what do you mean? I said, well, who do we give it back to? They were never at peace before that. It was like non stop war. Until we came and kind of had some treatment. She went, oh, that's so right wing. I'm 12. And I went home and I said, dad, what does right wing mean? He said, what? Where'd you hear that? So my drama teacher said I was right wing, the one in cigarette pants and black turtleneck. And he's like, oh, okay. Well, he explained it to me and I said, I'm that. And I went back the next day, I said, yeah, I am right wing. And I found out she was an actual communist. And then I started doing acting as a kid. And so my dad would go, well, this paycheck, this is what would go to socialized healthcare. This is what would go here, taxes. And so it just kind of was organic. And I will say, I always was. I think I was forging the fire because there's a lot of anti Americanism in Canada everywhere. And I had to defend it. I had to defend, like, no, no, no. Like it's a great country because you're going home using your electricity, your television set, watching Seinfeld while you microwave some popcorn over Redenbacher or whatever it is. Movie pop, Jiffy Pop. Like everything you do is American. So I had to defend it. And then you had. You know, I was always raised in a Christian household, but. But I had to think about it. So, like I always say, I've adapted some views with new information. If anything, I'm far further to the right now. I mean, I'm much more. I'm this close to religious oligarchy. Like, I'm that close at this point. But I'm always conservative. I always hated. I always hated the socialism of Quebec and communism. And I took an interest in it at a young age. And I'll tell you, Canada, though, there aren't enough. I've known two people in my life, raised in Canada, going through great. Always public schools, working the entertainment industry, who were not basically full on leftists. And one of them works for me, who you saw in the. The writers room, the home alone room. I've known him since I was 12.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Oh, wow.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Two. My whole life. So if you are a conservative at that point in Quebec, you know why you're conservative and you better be able to defend it. And I was enough of a prick to be willing to defend it. I was just. I was grumpy keyboard. I was the only person since the high school guidance counselor never touched drugs, never slept with them, and never touched a drop of alcohol. They were like, he's just kind of like a curmudgeon. He's a prick. They're like, maybe he's too tense. We'll put him in the wrestling club, they said, this is the first time I'm sending someone to the special class of trouble kids because he's grumpy, he's got odd vibes.

You get everything. You get everything. I mean, we, we. We got into the US From Cuba. I left my, My house with the, with the clothes. Knows that I haven't. That's it. Nothing else. And I was able to, you know, build a family, have a business, be successful because of America. The only. The only. We have a saying between us. Every time something great happened to us, we're like, all in America. Yeah, we go to. We like soccer. We go to the World Cup. Only in America, we go to Europe to watch a soccer game. All in America, everything that we get is because the United States votes America.

I want to work for myself. All right, go open a corporation. $150 corporation. Done. Pay your taxes. That's it. Start making money in America. Only in America. In the communist country, you cannot do it. And they. I don't have a problem with nobody knocking on my door, taking my stuff because I pay my taxes. I'm. I'm a law abiding citizen. I never been. I never even have a traffic ticket, for example. Only in America. I can do anything I want because of the United States of America. And I understand what it is to come from a place that you don't own anything, not even your freedom. And people tend to forget about that, how much value freedom has when you are sitting in a room looking behind your back and talking like this and you don't want to say anything and you don't want to do anything. And in America, I can go on my podcast and I can say, I don't like Trump. I don't like Biden. And nobody comes knocking on my door and taking me to jail. I know people in Cuba that have been killed. Of course there are Cuban artists named Luis Manero de Alcantara. Michael. They're Grammy winning artists and they're in prison because they made a song against the the Cuban regime and they're in prison right now. And then you see artists in the

I'm like, what, I gotta carry my passport?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I have to carry my passport.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I mean, I just don't. You know, you would because Andy Garcia is hardcore. I mean, did you ever see that movie? Was it it the Lost City? That's the only film that I think I've ever seen that presented a more accurate. You guys let me know. It seemed much more accurate as to the history of YouTube. YouTube as the history of Cuba and I had to watch it on YouTube because I couldn't find it on a streaming service for a while. But I know you guys have a. So look, you can wave your magic wand. You're president, you're king for a day. What happens with the United States, Cuba, what. What is done the United States Donald Trump this presidency. If you could be in his ear, what would you tell them to do?
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
In my personal opinion, I'll let you guys. We're all different individuals. Annex it. Territory. Territory. I wouldn't say state territory. Ironclad. So the island can never become what it was once. It benefits the US in so many ways, meaning they'll never be an enemy. And the resources of the island, it will be a synergistic mutual benefit for the people on the island and the US and there's permanent freedom for that island because as long as you are next to a superpower and that superpower has enemies, that island is open game at some point in time to be infiltrated even slowly to.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
How would you do it? Would it be some military intervention? Because then, I mean the flip side is China or Russia, they're not going to do anything.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
They didn't do anything in Venezuela, which is a bigger player.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
If China didn't do anything for Iran and Iran is way more significant. Or Venezuela, which is Venezuela and Russia's tied up with Ukraine.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
You think you could pull like a Venezuela just take out their leaders in
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
the middle of the night for me,
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
you and I could do it.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah. Maybe get Masvidal in there.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Message for the President and our friend Marco Rubio. Send the same Uber that they sent for Maduro.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
With the same bottle of water and everything. Save Castro the Nike time. Diaz, Canelo. Yeah. Canelo is the puppet. Castro is the mastermind behind this. So take them both. Take them both. They have a transitional government grandfathered by the United States. So American politician, American people watching us for a certain amount of time, the time that we do the transition. There is already a plan for a transition in Cuba that was accepted by the Florida Senate. It was signed and everything. We do have a plan. It's not that we're crazy about. We're going to do running crazy like Cubans. No, we do have a plan for a transition. Just send in the work for these guys, take them out and let us go back and work. We do have a plan. Watch us do the transition, and then later this can happen. But have the Cuban people for the first time in 70 years to vote for the future, because we have never voted for a future. Castro came in drawing guns and he decided, what's happening in that piece of island for 70 years.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Let me ask you this, because you say, obviously you're American now. You say you would go back and invest. Would you be willing to. If you do that, you'd pay like some kind of a tax back to the United States for allowing you to go back and Invest in Cuba.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
100%.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
That's a big difference also between Cuban Americans and a lot of these other immigrants. They're like, they send money back, but they don't want. They don't want to contribute to the United States in the way they've benefited.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
That we have the 50%.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
It's on. I run into it all the time.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
You cannot, you, you cannot. You cannot comprehend how much the America saved our lives.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Yeah.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yes.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Not. Not only ours here of generations, like, like, you have no idea. That's why we love this country so much. Yeah, we love this country. For, for me, for example, like, I'm Cuban, American. I was born in Cuba. After five years, I became an American citizen as fast as I could. And I love this country. Like, you have no idea. And like me, everybody around Omar Ciro, because this country saved our life.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Same thing.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Same thing.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Two cousins, pretty much.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
And if you do that, I'll go halfies with you and like, we'll put in a Jamba Juice in Havana. I bet you right there it'll do. Okay. Do they still have Jamba Juice? That smoothie king here. I'm amazed. I think of that as an 80s mall food court that we humble. We did. Ladies first, ladies last. Well, Would you do same thing?
Day (Spanglish Generation)
You know what? I agree with them in the sense that we do need supervision because it's been such a long time of this rotten, you know, ideology. We need supervision. And I don't think that it's. It's realistic to say, yeah, free us, and then we do have a plan. But I do believe that it needs to be supervised for a certain period of time, because there's a. There will be a lot of confusion, a lot of people, you know, kind of panicking, and we're going to need that, like, Big Brother kind of situation happening. But I do believe that it's only fair that the Cuban people get to vote for a precedent. I know a lot of people online, they're like, people in Cuba vote. There's a misconception. They don't vote. They vote for whatever they, you know, these policies. And you have to vote yes, because if you vote, know, then, you know, you're already blacklisted. So they've never voted for a precedent in over six decades. I think the Cuban people need to do that. They need to vote for their public, you know, officers. But I. Yeah, I agree. We do need. Whichever the plan is, it needs to be supervised by the US Kind of
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
like a bird that's had its wings clipped. You have to make sure you can get.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Every time that they say that the Cuban people vote, there's only one party. Yeah.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
It's like, so who are you?
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Absolutely.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
They have the, you know, the slogan is Patria muerte, Homeland or death. You're like, oh, homeland.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah, yeah.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
Literally with the sun.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah. It's. It's scary. And, man, it's. It's. It's a very important cautionary tale because, like you said, it's only about 90 miles away.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yep.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
And people have no idea. And then I see just how pernicious. I mean, like, look, like I've said, people can have reasonable positions on Iran, but you have people sanitizing the regime of Iran right now, going like they're not your enemy. Well, hold on a second. You could say it's expensive, or you could say maybe the communications have been wrong, or you could even say that you're against it, but you cannot say that it's anything other than evil. The Iranian regime, what was the first
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
thing they did when they fell? Threatening. They shoot missile to everybody.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Imagine if one of those was a nuclear bomb.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Well, I also think that's it. I mean, if the room. And again, I don't know when this is going to air. Because we pre taped this on. Yeah, hopefully. But they were just talking about an Arab coalition because Iran really screwed up. Right. And they fired it at uae. If an Arab coalition basically enacts regime change in Iran, I will laugh my ass off for a week. Like that's best case scenario. Like, we don't need to change the regime. All of these. Because all these people here going, oh, you know, you. It's just propaganda. They're not. Every other country in the region has said they can't have a nuke. If they have a nuke, we're going to need nukes. And we don't even want to have nukes. If they do the work. Perfect.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
I look at Russia, Russia went nuts because Ukraine was about to be part of NATO and was a proxy neighbor being a threat to them.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
We have Cuba 90 miles and we don't care.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
And it's full of Chinese, Russian, Iranian. Everybody passed by Cuba. We have a nuclear Russian submarine in Havana three months ago.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Cuban Russian nuclear submarine in Havana three, four months ago. Doc. In Havana. Yeah.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Military exercises there.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
And they do exercises there. Oh, yeah.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I mean, that was a redo. Right. Of the Cuban Missile crisis. People are just too far removed from it. Where we've been so dominant for so long and we've had it so good here in the country. Even though people say Americans are struggling. Sure. And that is not lost on me. And I understand we should have a government that is for the people, by the people, and represents the people.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
And we should.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
We're. We're not the world's. Well, we are the world's biggest charity, but we shouldn't be. We should focus on our people first. But having it tough in the United States, struggling, people don't know what that means. And I'll tell you what, people don't even know. I mean, it's not to your degree. And just where I was raised in Quebec, people there think it's better than, you know, they pay in Quebec for gas at least twice what you pay here. When I grew up, if it was 350 here, it was over $7 there. Just Nintendo 60. My generation, Nintendo 60. It'd be 40 bucks here, there'd be 75 bucks there. Just as a kid. Right. That was my allowance. I'm like, holy. So we'd go to upstate New York to get things and they are convinced
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
you had a Nintendo.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I know I did.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
We play with American privilege, as I said in the beginning, that it loops back to that. Right. You're so privileged that you Forget the hierarchy of needs. You don't remember what it's like. This is why the patriotism of the Cuban side you were asking earlier.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
My kids, my kids, God bless them. One day was my oldest birthday, and I'm like, hey, let's go to Disney World. And he loves the movie Cars. And I'm like, okay, we're gonna stay at the Cars Resort. I said, oh, my God, yes, he loves it. And then I booked everything. So, like, two months before it comes, the month to go to the. To the. To Disney. I say, daddy, I don't like the Cars anymore. I want to stay in Lion King 1. And we stayed in Cars. No, I don't want to. Okay. I went online, I put a video of kids from Cuba running through the border, going across the border. I'm like, that kid will die to go to the CARS Resort. And when I was young, I show him my school, I show him my park, everywhere I went. And he's like, daddy, Cars is fine.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah, Cars is fine.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Let's go there. And you ask him, what's the worst thing you can be in life? And he's like, a communist.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
Communist.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Because the struggle is real. The struggle is real.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
And, son, what's another word for communist? Gay. All right, well, let everyone know, too, where they can find you and watch your stuff, because I'm sure after this, people want to follow up and see what you're up to. Just let them know the best place to find you and support you guys. Yeah, we'll go around.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
It would be amazing to check on prisoner defenders online so you can see the list of Cuban prisoner political prisoners.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Okay.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
33% are women. And you have kids in there, too. And pay attention to that, because it's something that is happening right now. Last a couple of months ago, they killed another political prisoner in Cuba. What they do is they beat you up almost to death.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
I was asking about the channel, but you're talking about prisoners, so I'll go along.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
No, no, because I want to use all the opportunity they have for this
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
because please, please take the floor.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
To be honest, we've been very successful in what we're doing. People already know us. And for me, for us to be here, is to educate as much as we can the American people of our situation. So the Cuban political prisoner situation is happening right now. They're releasing people that almost dead. What they do is that they bring you down all the way and they release you to the street, and you die on the street. Right, but they're doing this to Children also, not only adults. They're doing this to children on 2026. So it's crazy. And you can find us on YouTube everywhere.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Is there a site where people can go to see the political prisoner info?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yes, it's called prisoners defender.com.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
okay. Prisoner defender.com on a lower third.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Yeah. You can find us on all social media as Lost Peachy Boy, P I C S y Boys on YouTube. El Peach Films. That's our channel. You can find us there.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
What does that mean, kid?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
Is it like anything pinche?
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Isn't that an insult Mexican and is that an insult?
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
No, no.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
For us it's like in Mexican is an insult. I just remember in Cobra where he goes, clean up your act. The guy's like, ah, too moderate. Pinch away.
Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
That's Mexican. For us it's like. It's like kid, because we cousins, they call us like pichones.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Okay, very nice. You sir. And I've known, you know, I've just come across your. Your rants that are more so like on. On Instagram and stuff like that where you break it down but let people know where to find you.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
So like you said Instagram and Tick Tock. It's at what Jose has to say. For those that don't know Jose Joshua in Spanish and on X, it's what Jose says the handle is too long, so I had to abbreviate it. But yeah.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
How have you not been banned from Tick Tock? Considering the Chinese influence I've been banned for.
Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator)
I've had some limitations since. But yeah, I've definitely some. Some sort of blacklist.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Yeah. I'm just not allowed on there.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
And sure, you day Spanglish generation. And it's exactly that. It's Spanglish. We do a little bit of this, a little bit of that. People tell me, well, you should do them in English. You should do in Spanish. You speak Spanglish. It's kind of like how it goes.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
And by the way, I realized how disrespectful that's what went you. It's because she was like, well, I don't want maybe use this name. Don't use it. So I didn't want to like use her real name. So it's like you. I realize I'm going along one woman like adding to you because my name
Day (Spanglish Generation)
is Dae Lynn, but everybody knows me as Day.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)
Okay. I don't know if you're trying to keep it more secret where you don't want people to know like your real name.
Day (Spanglish Generation)
It's out there. Somehow.
Host (likely a conservative commentator or podcaster)

Host: Steven Crowder
Guests: Day (Spanglish Generation), Jose Alvarez (Miami-based commentator), Lost Peachy Boys (Cuban American activists)
This episode features a roundtable of Cuban Americans—each with powerful, firsthand experience of Cuban communism, exile, and rebuilding lives in America. Crowder and his guests cut through American misconceptions, examine the realities of life under Cuba’s communist regime, expose the propaganda perpetuated by both American and Cuban leftists, and reveal how these dynamics threaten both Cuban and American futures.
The tone is deeply personal, often humorous but raw and urgent, as the guests share stories, dispel myths about the embargo and Cuba’s supposed “free” systems, and warn Americans about the spread of Marxist ideology—sometimes with America’s own government and influencers helping to prop up oppressive regimes.
On American Leftists Romancing Cuba:
“Every single major American celebrity, political celebrity… they all supported the Castro regime. They still wear Che Guevara shirts.” – Host [09:56]
On American Privilege & Social Justice:
“You’re so disconnected from hardship, from survival… once you stop worrying about food… you worry about social issues. That’s American privilege.” – Jose Alvarez [10:31]
On the “Embargo Lie”:
“The embargo is the biggest lie ever… It’s the Cuban Communist Party against the Cuban people.” – Lost Peachy Boys [31:43]
On Why Cubans Won’t Support Socialism Again:
“We know the difference. When you see the Democratic Party completely sold out to the far left, it’s not a question of what should we do…we’re not buying because that’s what we fled from.” – Day [56:24]
On Che Guevara’s Brutality:
“This guy in Cuba…made concentration camps for gays. Yes, concentration camps for gays.” – Lost Peachy Boys [78:41]
On the American Dream:
“America is the only place in the world you can come from nothing and have a business, be successful…” – Lost Peachy Boys [92:01]
Cuban-Americans featured in this episode offer a stark warning:
Closing message:
Cuban guests are deeply patriotic toward America, eager to return and invest in a free Cuba, and deeply invested in ensuring Americans don’t lose sight of the value of freedom and the insidiousness of propaganda—imploring listeners to recognize that the struggle for liberty in Cuba is, in many ways, a battle over America’s own future.
