  • Ep. 27: How the Dept. Of Ed. redefining “Professional Degree” affects everyone?
    Nov 30 2025

    On this episode of Vital Questions, Che Guerrero and La Co-Host break down how the Department of Education’s new definition of “professional degree” will affect everyone, not just students.

    We dive into what the Trump administration’s reclassification really means, why graduate loan caps could shut out entire communities, how fields like nursing, teaching, PT, and social work got left off the “professional” list, and what this means for the future workforce, healthcare, and the economy.

    If you care about higher education, the labor pipeline, or who gets access to opportunity in America, this episode is a must-listen.

  • Ep. 26: What is in those Epstein files?
    Nov 15 2025

    On this episode of Vital Questions, We’re back after two intense weeks of travel — and we didn’t come back empty-handed. Before diving into the chaos of the newly released Epstein records, we talk about our experience at the NYC Is Not for Sale Rally: a rare moment of community, safety, and solidarity in a city fighting to protect itself.


    Then we get into it:

    The House Oversight Committee just dropped tens of thousands of Epstein documents — emails, records, and connections that leaders across the political spectrum have tried to bury. The files show clear ties to Trump, raise serious questions about the failed investigation into Epstein’s death, and expose the “prison camp perks” Ghislaine Maxwell has been receiving while survivors are still fighting to be heard.


    We also break down why Rep. Adelita Grijalva, sworn in after a 50-day delay, became the key vote that forced these files into the light.


    And yes… the responses from right-wing media are exactly as unhinged as you’d expect.


    🎧 Listen to Vital Questions with Che Guerrero and La Co-Host wherever you get your podcasts.

  • Ep. 25: Are Republicans trying to steal upcoming elections?
    Oct 24 2025

    In this episode of Vital Questions, Che and La Co-Host dive into one of the biggest concerns: are Republicans trying to steal upcoming elections? With early voting already underway, they unpack how the GOP is using gerrymandered maps, attacks on the Voting Rights Act, and even talk of “emergency powers” to manipulate voting systems and hold onto control.

    They also break down the real 2024 election numbers. Only 65 percent of registered voters showed up, meaning less than half the country decided the outcome, and why every single vote matters now more than ever.

    From Missouri to Texas to Louisiana, the episode connects how these state-level power grabs could shape the future of democracy and why local races in places like New York, New Jersey, and Pennsylvania are key to protecting our rights.

    Stay informed. Vote with your values. Do not sit this one out.

  • Ep. 20 - Why Can’t Certain Right-wing Latinos Separate Church and State?
    Aug 15 2025

    On this episode of Vital Questions, we dive into why certain right-wing Latinos can’t (or won’t) separate church and state—and how that shapes their politics in the U.S. We trace this back to centuries of religious colonization, the political power of evangelical movements in Latin America, and the way Trump-era conservatives recruit Latino religious leaders to push anti-LGBTQ+, anti-abortion, and nationalist agendas. This isn’t just history, it’s happening right now, and it’s influencing elections and laws that affect us all.


    📢 Listen, get informed, and share this conversation because the separation of church and state isn’t just a legal principle, it’s a safeguard for democracy.
