This is a special, unedited, bilingual bonus episode – and one wild ride of a story. We are releasing it just in time for the feast day of St. Lazaro, Dec. 17th!It’s the story of Heriberto Canela, who left Cuba during the Mariel Boatlift. His arrival in the United States was epic, but to add to that, he promised to return for his parents. So, after arriving in the States, he threw himself to the sea again. The near-death odyssey that ensued is detailed here straight from Heriberto himself, joined by his wife, and his son, actor, Jason Canela, who carries his dad’s legacy forward. Pirates, puking, shots fired, betrayal, illness, being lost at sea, promise, hope, family – you name it, this story has it. Tune in for more!
