The episode opens with a live reaction to Arcángel's controversial speech at Madrid's Movistar Arena, where the reggaeton artist thanked Spain for colonizing Latin America, said "we used to be Indians — these people came and gave us value," and told the crowd Spain owes no apology. Gadiel — a Dominican himself — breaks down why this is historically wrong, culturally painful, and a failure of education. He plays Jasmine Ruiz's viral response, which walks through the advanced Taíno society that existed before colonization, including leaders, farmers, builders, and trade routes between DR, Puerto Rico, and Cuba. He references Columbus's own journal describing the Taíno as "beautiful, generous, and giving" — before writing "they would make great servants." Gadiel also flags the mining protests currently happening in DR, where foreign companies are digging up gold on Dominican land — connecting the colonial past to the present. He then acknowledges Arcángel's apology but frames the whole incident as a failure of education, not malice: "I got no hate. Just read a book. Everybody send him a book." The episode shifts to something personal. Gadiel's 21-year-old sister just graduated with a political science degree, and at the celebration dinner, a young family member loudly bragged about sleeping with a woman who was sitting nearby with her baby — in front of Gadiel's sisters and father. Gadiel uses this moment to introduce "LQB" — Low Quality Behavior — a term for the kind of conduct that young men are being rewarded for online but that destroys real relationships and community. He talks about growing up wanting to be a superhero, the death of the gentleman, and how men who seek validation through women and money have no real purpose. The final segment is a passionate redefinition of masculinity. Gadiel argues that true masculinity is about bringing joy, protecting people, being empathetic, and being secure enough in yourself that nothing threatens you — not women's success, not gay or trans people, not criticism. He references chimpanzee research showing the alpha male is the one who carries babies, stops fights, and brings the group together. He closes with a message: when a man is truly in his masculine and trusts himself, the people around him — including women — feel safe enough to be themselves. "Make it cool to be a superhero again."

Speed visited the Dominican Republic as part of his Caribbean streaming tour, walking through the Colonial Zone — the oldest city in the Western Hemisphere — and the stream reportedly hit 1.6 million concurrent viewers, which would have beaten his record set in Indonesia. But something felt off. Gadiel breaks down the math: at the same time Speed's stream showed 1.6 million viewers, Alofoke's Casa de Alofoke reality show was also pulling 1.2 million viewers. Those numbers together didn't add up. The next day, Speed announced that YouTube reps told him the stream actually peaked around 300,000 real viewers and that someone had botted the rest. He didn't name names. That's when Alofoke lost it. He reportedly paid 100,000 Dominican pesos to have Speed's mural painted over and went public defending himself. Gadiel's take: "No innocent person acts like that." He compares it to someone getting accused of cheating and overreacting to the point where the overreaction itself is the tell. He acknowledges that Alofoke does pull real numbers — he's seen Dominicans everywhere watching his shows — but the reaction to the bot allegation looked guilty. The episode expands into a broader conversation about how the internet rewards bad behavior. From Alofoke calling Black Spanish women "chimpanzees" to Fresh and Fit's toxic content model, Gadiel talks about how creators get rewarded for going to extremes, and how that's shaping the next generation. He also shouts out what Speed's stream got right — showcasing DR's beauty, culture, fruits, and people — and laments that the bot drama overshadowed all of it. Gadiel closes by admitting he fell down the rabbit hole and had to force himself off the internet, reminding the audience (and himself) that none of this drama matters as much as the real things in life. Timestamps: 00:00 — Speed went to DR and "broke the record" at 1.6M — but did he? 02:40 — The math ain't mathing: Speed + Alofoke both at 1M+ viewers at the same time? 05:13 — Speed says YouTube confirmed it was botted — Alofoke SNAPS 07:09 — Alofoke paid 100K pesos to erase Speed's mural — "you're looking guilty bro" 13:39 — The internet rewards bad behavior and it's destroying the next generation 🎤 UPCOMING SHOWS: Arizona — June 21st (Father's Day!)

]]> Speed vs. Alofoke: A Dominican's Honest Take Gadiel Del Orbe 00:16:41 Gadiel breaks down the IShowSpeed vs. Alofoke drama from a Dominican perspective. Speed streamed in DR, hit 1.6 million viewers, then told the world somebody botted the numbers — and Alofoke took it so personally he paid 100,000 pesos to erase Speed's mural off a wall. Gadiel lays out the timeline, why the reaction screams guilty, and the bigger conversation about how the internet rewards bad behavior at the expense of Dominican culture. Plus: the Dominican Michael Jackson who can't dance, and why Gadiel had to get off the internet after falling down this rabbit hole.

Gadiel opens with his experience at Latino Hive in Napa Valley — a networking retreat for Latino executives, entrepreneurs, and creators. He talks about the power of being around like-minded people, visiting Latino-owned vineyards, and the eye-opening realization that Latinos have $3.4 trillion in buying power but still don't own their own major networks or media companies. He met VCs, business owners, scientists, and women who are dominating in their fields. From there, he recaps hosting Monster's Ball, a comedy festival at Comedy in Harlem — the only Black-owned comedy club in New York City. He describes it as the best comedy experience of his life, comparing the performers to NBA players and explaining why Black comedy audiences push you to be authentic in a way no other crowd does. He shouts out Isaiah Kelly, PJ, Jamie Roberts, Nikki Sunshine, and the entire Comedy in Harlem crew. The episode shifts to Spirit Airlines shutting down — 17,000 jobs lost overnight. While Gadiel empathizes with the workers, he doesn't hold back on the airline itself, sharing his own story of getting charged $150 in hidden fees for bags on what was supposed to be a cheap flight. He breaks down the bigger picture: jet fuel costs spiked 104% in two months because of the Iran war, JetBlue is sitting on $9 billion in debt, and even if the war ended tomorrow, experts say it would take months for prices to recover. He connects it to grocery prices doubling (his basic shopping won't go under $100 anymore) and the ripple effect on everyday Americans. He closes with the looksmaxxing trend — over 300,000 daily searches from young men ages 18-24 who are watching influencers like Clover Killer and literally smashing their own facial bones with hammers to reshape their jawlines. Gadiel ties it to a bigger concern about the next generation of men being uneducated and image-obsessed, while women — like the Latina physicist he met at Latino Hive and his own 21-year-old sister — are outpacing them in education and career. His solution? Start a new country called Platino Republic, and bring bachata back to save the world.

Ep 47 In this solo episode, Gadiel tackles dating in New York City head-on. He opens with the economics of it — a first date in NYC runs around $180 on average, cocktails cost $19 each (you could buy the whole bottle for that price), and meanwhile she's posting "self-care" on her story and didn't even take a picture of you. He shares a dating horror story from LA where his date spent the entire dinner on her phone taking photos of the food but never once took a photo of him. Gadiel breaks down how millennials and Gen Z are ditching dating apps and opting for book clubs and in-person meetups instead. He talks about the cultural differences in dating — how Caribbean women in NYC are thoughtful and offer to Venmo you after a date (even though you say no), while LA women don't even say thank you. He shouts out NYC women in their late 30s and 40s who have careers, know what they want, and are holding it down. The conversation takes a turn into Dominican culture with the Sanky Panky phenomenon — men in the Dominican Republic who wait on beaches for American and European women to fall in love with them so they can get a visa. Gadiel shares a personal encounter with a Sanky Panky and breaks down why these guys speak four languages out of sheer determination to leave the island. He then reacts to the White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting, the viral moment of a boomer casually eating his salad during the chaos, and reflects on the state of the world in 2026 — how our nervous systems are fried from constant bad news and how he's been journaling to recenter himself.

Plus: his reaction to the White House Correspondents' Dinner shooting, the boomer who kept eating his salad, and why our nervous systems are completely fried in 2026. nyc rent, nyc women, bilingual comedy, $19 cocktail nyc, dating in nyc, la vs nyc dating, sanky panky, dating hack, dating in your 30s, expensive dates nyc, caribbean women, cost of dating new york, park date, funny dating stories, nyc dating 2026, dating is a scam, who pays on first date, millennial dating, spanglish podcast, dating at 39, hinge dating, nyc podcast, gadiel del orbe, dating apps, single in new york city, solo podcast episode, white house correspondents dinner shooting, dominican comedy, comedy podcast, latino dating, dominican republic dating, gen z quitting dating, comedian life true full 47 40c83b2a-f3e8-489e-a51b-011e68261d10 "Nobody Told Me This Part" — The Truth About Chasing Your Dream at 39 This is a solo episode — no guest, no filter, just Gadiel talking directly to the audience about what the last week actually looked like behind the scenes. He opens up about feeling stuck in routine, going on stage every night but not pushing himself, not writing new material, and falling into the trap of coasting on crowd work and improv instead of doing the hard work of crafting new jokes. He talks about the isolation of being your own boss, the comparison trap of watching other comedians blow up, and the constant tension between hustling and actually living your life. The turning point came when his mentor, Ida Rodriguez — one of the top nationally touring female comedians with specials on Netflix, HBO, and Showtime — flew into New York City. After four days of hanging out, eating with friends, and getting real mentorship, Gadiel walked away with a clear blueprint: sit down and write every morning, build structure around your ADHD, stop hiding behind crowd work, and get out into the world to find inspiration from different art forms. He shares the story of a chef who found inspiration in an art museum and used it to build a massively successful restaurant — and how that same principle applies to comedy. Gadiel closes with his focus going forward: signal over noise. One goal — write and craft the strongest hour of comedy he's ever created, in both English and Spanish, and take it everywhere. He also leaves the audience with a challenge: notice how many times you complain or make excuses this week, and cut it out. Timestamps: 00:00 — "Nobody talks about chasing your dream at 40" 05:30 — Going through the motions — killing on stage but cheating myself 12:00 — Ida Rodriguez flew in and gave me the blueprint 20:00 — "You need to experience life to create art" 28:00 — Signal vs. Noise — what I'm doing next

Black Rose & Norberto In this episode, we're reunited with two of the podcast's original voices — Black Rose and Norberto — for a wide-ranging conversation that touches culture, sports, dating, and the state of modern masculinity.

    What we cover:

    ⚾ World Baseball Classic Recap The Dominican Republic brought an energy to baseball the world hadn't seen before — celebrations, camaraderie, and pure joy. The crew breaks down their dominant run, the heartbreaking 2–1 loss to the USA, a controversial umpire call, and why the US team felt like the villains of the whole tournament.

    📺 Louis Theroux's Inside the Manosphere — Documentary Review Was it a real exposé or free promo for these creators? The hosts give their honest take on the red pill figures featured, including Myron and other top streamers, and debate whether documentaries like this help or hurt by amplifying the very voices they critique.

    💬 One-Way Monogamy, "Princess So" & Modern Dating What does it mean when a guy is called a "princess so"? Is one-way monogamy something real women accept? Black Rose keeps it 100 about what she actually wants in a partner — emotional intelligence, consistency, and balance.

    🐀 The Rat Utopia Experiment A fascinating social experiment that might explain everything happening in gender dynamics right now — from men going inward to women opting out.

    💪 A Message to Young Men The episode closes with a real one: if you're a young man looking for guidance, skip the Lamborghini flex culture. Build community, respect women, and lead by example.

Jasmine shares how she quit her corporate job, left a relationship, and flew to the Dominican Republic in the same week, then rebuilt her life as a full-time content creator and actor.

    They talk about the reality behind “I hit six figures”, the dry spells of self-employment, and why you need a financial cushion before you quit your 9–5. Jasmine also opens up about being the first in her family to graduate high school and college, enter corporate America, and then walk away from it.

    From there, the conversation goes deep into:

    Growing up in the Bronx projects and still finding joy

    Being labeled the “black sheep” and “snob” for asking questions

    Cycle breaking: questioning family scripts, beliefs, and traditions

    How education and critical thinking can cause tension at home

    Politics, NYC, Zohran Mamdani, and frustration with leadership

    Classism & colorism in the Dominican Republic and the U.S.

    Consumerism, brands, Jordans, and why minimalism feels better

    Selling books vs. selling sneakers (and why the books hurt more)

    Fantasy & sci-fi, Octavia Butler, and how reading shapes your mind

    Astrophysics, curiosity, and trying to grow intellectually while creating

    If you're a first-gen kid, a creative thinking of leaving your job, or someone trying to break generational cycles and live more intentionally, this episode will hit home.

    ]]>     Wed, 26 Nov 2025 16:26:20 +0000 Contact@gadieldelorbe.com (Jasmine Ruiz, Gadiel Del Orbe) https://thegadieldelorbeshow.simplecast.com/episodes/from-bronx-projects-to-full-time-creator-breaking-cycles-w-jasmine-ruiz-CYd19nV_ Gadiel and Jasmine have a raw, funny, and real conversation about starting over, identity, and breaking cycles. Jasmine shares how she quit her corporate job, left a relationship, and flew to the Dominican Republic in the same week, then rebuilt her life as a full-time content creator and actor.

    They talk about the reality behind “I hit six figures”, the dry spells of self-employment, and why you need a financial cushion before you quit your 9–5. Jasmine also opens up about being the first in her family to graduate high school and college, enter corporate America, and then walk away from it.

    From there, the conversation goes deep into:

    Growing up in the Bronx projects and still finding joy

    Being labeled the “black sheep” and “snob” for asking questions

    Cycle breaking: questioning family scripts, beliefs, and traditions

    How education and critical thinking can cause tension at home

    Politics, NYC, Zohran Mamdani, and frustration with leadership

    Classism & colorism in the Dominican Republic and the U.S.

    Consumerism, brands, Jordans, and why minimalism feels better

    Selling books vs. selling sneakers (and why the books hurt more)

    Fantasy & sci-fi, Octavia Butler, and how reading shapes your mind

    Astrophysics, curiosity, and trying to grow intellectually while creating

    If you're a first-gen kid, a creative thinking of leaving your job, or someone trying to break generational cycles and live more intentionally, this episode will hit home.

They dive into what it means to be the “cycle breaker” of the family, why asking questions can make you the black sheep, how classism and colorism show up in Latino communities, and why joy, humor, and intentional living matter now more than ever.

    Josie Caballero – Trans Latina Navy veteran and democratic socialist running for Montgomery County Council At-Large (MD)

    In this episode we talk about:

    How Josie and Gadiel met in the Navy and why she feels like family

    What it’s like running for office as a trans woman in such a divisive moment

    Why terms like socialism, communism, and capitalism are so misunderstood

    “American socialism” explained through Medicare, VA benefits, public schools, roads, firefighters, and Social Security

    How we got from FDR and the New Deal to today’s corporate-driven economy

    The Dunning-Kruger effect and why so many people are confident but wrong about politics

    Josie’s turning point: from conservative Republican to democratic socialist

    Why the housing crisis exists (private equity, “luxury” buildings, and fake “affordable” units)

    How rent control, public housing, and better building standards could actually fix it

    ICE, raids, and why Josie says we’re already edging into an authoritarian state

    What due process really means — and why it matters for citizens and immigrants

    Josie’s policy priorities:

    52% of the county operating budget guaranteed for schools

    3% rent cap with no loopholes

    Enforcing the law against ICE when it breaks it

    Por qué este es el primer episodio 100% en español del podcast

    La escena de teatro y stand up en Puerto Rico y cómo Chente se obsesionó con la comedia

    El origen de su podcast: de “carta de presentación” a máquina de llenar teatros

    La pandemia, dejar el stand up por un tiempo y convertirse en podcaster de lunes a viernes

    El momento en que se dio cuenta que el público iba por el podcast (gracias al intro song)

    Las entrevistas grandes: Bad Bunny, Residente y el poder real del Internet

    Giras por Nueva York, Orlando, Florida y Dallas: discotecas, restaurantes y aprender a matar en cualquier escenario

    Qué haría Chente si perdiera su canal y tuviera que empezar desde cero

    El futuro de la música latina, los instrumentos y la influencia de Bad Bunny

    ]]>     Tantra Intimacy Coach: Intimacy & Real Talk on Sex (w/ Black Rose & Zipporah, Tantra Intimacy Coach + Somatic Therapist) #10 Zipporah, Black Rose, Gadiel Del Orbe 00:55:50 Tantric sex educator Zipporah and comedian Black Rosa join Gadiel for a candid, myth-busting convo about what tantra really is—and how it can strengthen relationships. We break down the core ideas (breath, presence, connection), practical ways tantra can help repair trust, reduce anxiety, and bring partners back into sync, plus the most common misconceptions (it’s just about sex, it’s a religion, it’s only for couples). In this episode we go deep on conscious intimacy: what Tantra actually is (beyond sex), how to “set the container” (breathwork, music, scent, touch), why slowing down skyrockets pleasure, and practical ways couples can reconnect. Zippora shares insights on sexual healing, somatic therapy, consent, boundaries, heart-centered orgasms, and why alcohol can numb connection while small, intentional cannabis doses may enhance it. We also unpack porn’s impact on desire and performance, communicating kinks without shame, first-date timing, and why the chase (and mystery) still matter. Plus: shibari basics, play-party etiquette, and choosing partners with intention. What you’ll learn Tantra as a lifestyle: presence, ritual, and the five senses Concrete pre-intimacy rituals that boost chemistry Emotional safety, consent, & communicating desires Porn vs. real intimacy; performance anxiety & rewiring dopamine Cannabis-assisted Tantra 101 (microdosing, not numbing) If this convo helped, drop your takeaway in the comments, hit subscribe, and rate the pod ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️.

    Anti-Blackness & colorism • Colonial legacies • Media erasure vs. representation • “Latinidad” as marketing vs. lived identity • The (non-existent) unified “Latino vote” • Anti-intellectualism & gender gaps • From outrage to outcomes: what actually helps youth

    Actionable takeaways:

    Invest time/money in youth programs, test prep, and mentorship.

    Attend your local community board—track where funds go and advocate for youth/education.

    Start small, consistent conversations in real life (family tables, group chats, barbershops).

    Books mentioned (great starters):
    The Afro-Latin@ Reader • Latino Inc. (Arlene Dávila) • Making Hispanics (Cristina Mora) • Hopeful Girls, Troubled Boys (Nancy López)

    Guest: Dominican sociology PhD researcher (IG/TikTok: @plata_knows)

    Host asks: If this added value, drop a 5-star rating, comment your takeaways, and share with a friend who’ll push the convo forward.

    Why it matters: ideas shape budgets, schools, and who gets seen/heard.

    How to help: show up locally, fund youth and literacy, mentor, and keep the conversation going.

Expect history, receipts, and practical steps you can use today. Episode Summary In this episode, we go deep on race, identity, and power with a Dominican scholar currently pursuing a PhD in sociology.

Sasha opens up about losing her mother at just three months old and how that early loss forged her resilience, humor, and Dominican-American identity. She recounts moving to New York City with nothing but a MetroCard and a notebook of punch lines, hustling open-mics from Washington Heights to Brooklyn, and ultimately writing the autobiographical stage piece that would sell out downtown theaters. Beyond her solo success, Sasha lifts the curtain on producing Dominican comedy showcases, explaining how she curates lineups, wrangles venues, and amplifies Caribbean voices that mainstream clubs overlook. Gadiel and Sasha swap survival hacks for big-city creatives, roast the wildest subway characters they’ve met, and dig into why personal grief can be the sharpest tool in a comedian’s kit. Raw, inspiring, and hilariously honest—this episode proves heavy stories can spark the loudest laughs.

    ]]>     Love Island Chaos, Dominican Colorism & the Irma Hernandez Tragedy — Norberto Briceño #2 Gadiel Del Orbe, Norberto Briceño 00:55:32 Norberto Briceño returns to spar with Gadiel over this week’s hottest—and heaviest—headlines. First stop: Love Island USA, where Kenny & Jana’s blow-up has Twitter divided; Norberto breaks down why reality-TV “villains” are now marketing geniuses. The conversation pivots to a deeper issue: colorism in the Dominican Republic—its roots, its memes, and how both hosts navigate shade jokes onstage without punching down. The mood turns somber as they unpack the heartbreaking murder of Mexican teacher Irma Hernandez, allegedly at the hands of cartel gunmen, asking whether comedy can coexist with stories this dark. Expect rapid-fire Spanglish, subway-level side-tales, and a surprising dose of social commentary—all in under an hour. Press play for laughs, gasps, and a fresh perspective on Latinx pop culture’s brightest (and darkest) moments.
