Jesus Sepúlveda’s Mr. Tough Life on HBO Max is puro corazón con comedia. In just 29 minutes, he peels back layers of growing up Latino in L.A.—talking therapy, familia, and cultura—with hella humor and realness. This ain’t no watered-down stand-up. It’s for la comunidad, by la comunidad. If you want to laugh, reflect, and feel seen, Mr. Tough Life es pa’ ti.
Ian Lara’s Growing Shame on Comedy Central is puro corazón y chiste. En solo 30 minutos, el dominicano de Queens te lleva por un trip de risas, familia, luto, y lo awkward que es adulting. He’s chill, funny, and real con su cultura—sin tener que overexplain. It’s comedy con alma, donde te ríes, pero también te quedas pensando. This one? Mandatory pa’ cualquiera que quiera humor con raíz.
Aida Rodriguez’s Fighting Words is more than a comedy special—it’s a raw, funny, and deeply personal reclamation of identity. From reuniting with her father in the Dominican Republic to spotlighting her Afro-Latina roots and Caribbean lineage, Rodriguez blends sharp wit with emotional depth. With a DJ set by Venus X setting the tone, she delivers a set that’s unfiltered, political, and proudly her own.
