Season 10. Episode 91: Felix Contreras

Recorded live at The Rink Studios as part of the Inspiración Speaker Series, we kick off Season 10 with a powerful opening conversation.

Our first guest, Félix Contreras—NPR journalist and co-creator of Alt.Latino and Tiny Desk Concerts—joins us for a dialogue rooted in culture, identity, and storytelling. Widely respected for amplifying Latino voices in music and media, Félix shares insights from his journey and the impact of creating spaces where stories can be heard and celebrated.

From his early influences to shaping national conversations through NPR, Félix reflects on the importance of representation, the evolution of Latino music, and the responsibility that comes with storytelling at scale. This conversation explores how culture, media, and community intersect—and why preserving authentic voices matters now more than ever.

Grounded in purpose and driven by passion, Félix reminds us that storytelling is not just about visibility—it’s about legacy, connection, and creating pathways for others.
