Spanish Sin Pena Podcast
Spanish Sin Pena Podcast hosted & produced by SSP Alumni, Liz Sánchez & Suzy Exposito!
Season 3 of the Spanish Sin Pena Podcast!
Listening to the stories of others can open space to reflect on your own journey—your relationship with Spanish, your roots, and how it all shows up in daily life.
In this season, we highlight how Español lives in our careers and everyday moments. Tune in to Season 3—and let these stories move, inspire, and remind you that you're not alone on this path. These conversations are hosted by Spanish Sin Pena alumni and feature inspiring former students and community voices.
Suzy is an award-winning journalist & artist based in LA. Her family hails from Cuba & Belize. You can read her work in Vogue, Rolling Stone & the Los Angeles Times.
Liz is a freelance audio producer, writer, DJ & tennis coach (yup, you read that right!) born & raised in L.A. Her Chicago-native mother moved to LA to pursue a career in radio & film, where she met Liz's squash-playing Mexican father -- and the rest is history. Liz has produced shows for Marketplace, KCRW, Sony Podcasts - Neon Hum Media, CBS News, and more.
