So I’ve recently listened to The Blowback podcast after they were on The Deprogram, and I’ve experienced some… feelings.

I started with their season 1, but saw that season 2 was about Cuba so I thought I’d give that a listen first and… I just finished episode 3 and I’ve started crying in both the previous episodes?!

In episode 2 they describe the revolution and at the end of the episode I was literally in tears. To hear how a revolution succeeded and turned an entire country on its head made me literally cry. Then in episode 3 there’s a voice clip of Castro speaking, and he says something along the lines of “I don’t care about power, I just want what’s best for my people.”

And again I teared up? Like…? Should I increase my meds? Please tell me there are some of you that at least feel the same every now and then?
