One summer evening in 2005, Mathew Alvarez was told he had to stay the night at his grandmother's house. Mat grew up around the block from his grandmother, also known as Mamita, but was nervous. It was a rare instance when it would be just the two of them. He didn't know it then, but it would be one of the last times he would be able to connect with his grandmother. In this non-narrated episode, Mat reflects on his relationship with Mamita and what he's learned about connecting with family and his culture.Let’s Reminisce is an independent podcast from Brewhaha Audio Productions, created and hosted by Rick Brewer.

For years, my sister and I wanted to learn the details of how my parents met. And when I eventually did, it became one of the few times in my life when I can point to a specific moment and say this, this was the moment when it all hit me. How little I knew about my parents and that they had lives before I was born. I, of course, knew this, but never truly thought about it with any nuance. And this is where I wanted to go with my parents, the nuance. To learn about all of the little mechanics and innocent moments that had to occur for them to meet. To the awkward, complicated world of dating and how they became life partners. So, how did the stars align and why had it always been a secret?Let’s Reminisce is an independent podcast from Brewhaha Audio Productions, created and hosted by Rick Brewer.
