{"store":{"baseInfo":{"podcastTitle":"Pixel Papis","slug":"pixelpapis","podcastDescription":"

Hosted by cousins Jio Crespo and Alfredo Ramos, this podcast dives into the worlds of gaming, technology, and entertainment through the lens of two Hispanic kids who grew up side‑by‑side—and never stopped talking about the things they love. Their shared upbringing in vibrant Hispanic households shapes every conversation, adding cultural flavor, humor, and a perspective you won’t find anywhere else.

Pull up a seat on the couch and settle in for easygoing, unfiltered conversations about the latest releases, industry trends, and nostalgic throwbacks. The vibe is intentionally real: kids laughing in the background, dogs chiming in, and the natural soundtrack of home life reminding you that you’re hanging out with friends, not tuning into a studio‑polished broadcast.

Whether you're here for the tech takes, the gaming debates, or just the warmth of two cousins chopping it up, Jio and Alfredo invite you into their living room for a show that feels like family, culture, and pure passion for the things that bring us joy.

In this episode of Pixel Papi’s, we go down a bit of a rabbit hole discussing what we are currently reading, books that we want to read, the current state of the gaming landscape, video games as an art form, and how they just don’t make games like they used to. Take a seat on the couch and join us on another episode of Pixel Papis!
