Chuck and Mike dive into the intersection of natural disasters and politics, focusing on the impact of Hurricane Milton on Florida's communities and its implications on the Latino community. With a heartfelt discussion on personal connections to the storm and its effects on family, they explore how climate change is reshaping political conversations among voters, particularly for Latinos. The duo also analyzes Vice President Harris's upcoming town hall with Univision, unpacking key messages on immigration and economic policy that could resonate with voters.

The conversation shifts to Vice President Kamala Harris’s recent media blitz, where she connects with audiences through platforms like The View, Howard Stern, and the popular podcast Call Her Daddy. Mike and Chuck analyze this strategic approach, highlighting how political candidates must adapt to modern media consumption trends, especially among younger voters who primarily engage with platforms like TikTok and Instagram.

Finally, they discuss the implications of Fox News launching a Spanish-language channel, they question the motivations behind such moves and how they might influence the Latino electorate. Tune in for a thoughtful exploration of how media evolution impacts political strategy and the representation of Latino voices in America today.
