Larissa and Gareth would like to thank Uoster Zielinski for the graphic design and all the essential workers out there, keeping ...

We're back! Nothing like Supreme Court justice and an unhinged billionaire fighting for the soul of Brazilian democracy to get Gareth and Larissa back on the metaphorical airwaves.This was recorded just when things kicked off, with X-Twitter getting banned, fines being imposed on those who attempt to circumvent it, and the creation of the verified …

Hello, friends! We are taking a break! It's not you, it's us, we promise. As you all know, we are an indie pod, and both of us have full-time jobs. At the moment, other things beyond those full-time jobs have been draining our time and we just can't deliver a good episode for the next few weeks. We are coming back! In two months! With brand new epi…

Hey, friends! It's Pride Month *everywhere* and Larissa has finally been able to do an episode on the date of something! This week we talk about João W. Nery, trans activist in Brazil and first man to receive gender confirmation in Brazil, and his importance in ensuring the rights of trans people to have access to adequate identification that doesn…

Hi, friends! Sorry we're late! This week we had a wonderful guest, translation expert Justine Houyaux! And when we have cool people on the pod, of course, we like to make them play a silly game! So Larissa rounded up a bunch of Brazilian expressions and asked Justine to guess what they meant - Gareth gave his best shot? As always, we'd like to than…

Hi, friends! This week we discuss Eurovision and Brazilian corruption (yes, again!). I mean, not as connected things, although there are some parallels? Anyway, hopefully we've exhausted the topic of corruption for the time being. As always, we'd like to thank Uoster Zielisnki for the graphic design and the essential workers for keeping us safe.…

Hi, friends! We're so sorry we were gone last week, with no warning! Totally Larissa's fault! We hope you are safe and well. This week we continue talking about corruption and other crimes, as police violence continues being awful in Brazil against black people. So, content warning for the final minutes of the episode, ok? As always, we'd like to t…

Hi, everyone! Yeah, bit late again, so sorry. This week we have a bit of history, talking about how Petrobrás was founded and has made Brazil 8th in oil production in the world, and how it ends up part of daily politics in Brazil, including the Car Wash operation. As always, we'd like to thank Uoster Zielisnki for the graphic design and the essenti…

Hi, friends! We're behind this week as Gareth was a bit under the weather. He's all fine now and celebrating his birthday! In this episode, we ramble on about Neelix, Scott Bakula and, of course, the cancellation of the Brazilian Census.

Hello, everyone! This week we wanted to go light and fluffy - but this is still (mostly) a Brazilian politics podcast, so we just went for lowbrow comedy instead. Enjoy the Bizarro Bills of Brazil! Never will a night's sleep be peaceful because now you'll have these babies to keep you up at night! As always, we'd like to thank Uoster Zielinski for …

Hello, friends! We got a nice, light topic this weekend. As David Tennant cracks jokes for the BBC about the genocide going on in Brazil due to the mismanagement of the pandemic, a joke that would never have happened about the United States, it becomes obvious that updating our audience with actual data is definitely of the highest order. We talk c…

Hello, friends! This week, Gareth finishes the riveting story of Owain Glyndwr and the last battle of the Welsh against the English! And, for our one year anniversary (!!!) we opened our very own RedBubble shop! Ain't that cool??? For now, it's just the logo on a sticker, magnet, and pin options, but we'll branch out soon enough. Let us know what y…

Hi, friends! So, for this week, Larissa and Gareth decided to torture themselves by watching the Netflix docu-series (ugh) 'Killer Ratings'. We did it out of love, so now you don't have to! The series is a poor attempt to document the (alleged) crimes of Wallace Souza and his ring, killing drug dealers so they could then drug deal and using the ima…

Hi, friends! This was supposed to be a quick updated on Lula's situation and it turned into a deep dive into the last 20-ish years of Brazilian history!

Hi, everyone! Today's episode is a bit of a treat: we got our friend, Isaac Goff-Mitchell, from The Youth Vote podcast to play a game with us, pinning our very own Gareth Davies against him!

Hello, everyone! Finally, we are back with part 2 of our episode on Carnaval and politics! Very sorry for Gareth's technical difficulties.

Hi, everyone! Today's episode is about how political Carnaval can be, so much so that we made it into a two-parter! And since it is also a BIG topic, we talked about the Carnaval in Belo Horizonte, where Larissa lives. Of course, with festivities cancelled this year - for a very good reason - this is very bittersweet. This week was also Larissa's b…

Hi, everyone! Happy weekend! For this episode we dive into to the Free Brazil Movement, or MBL, an extreme right-wing organisation that is linked to other organisations that are funded by the Koch brothers.

Hi, everyone! Because the world is weird, Larissa might soon be moving to Wales! With that in mind, Gareth decided to torture her with questions he knew she couldn't answer and badger her into the above title for which she found a suitable compromise. This pub quiz in no way reflect Larissa's abilities and she was NOT allowed to study for it. Also …

Hello, friends! In today's episode, we talk about Gareth's level of attractiveness, Mario Lopez's next venture, and Brazil's energy grid. Yes, because Amapá is still having issues and power outtages and the thing is, this is not a new problem. It's just gotten worse recently with the substation going offline. So, get ready for some data-filled rant…

Hi, friends! We've made a blunder and chose a movie that's not great for our purposes here on Brazil Nuts. Blame our excitement for doing something different. Blame Gareth for wanting to do a movie episode for Halloween. On a Brazilian themed podcast. Yes, blame Gareth, that's better. We're very sorry if anyone was triggered in anyway by our first …

Hi, friends! We are SO sorry about how late we are this week. The life of indie podcasting is a thrill! This week we talk about The Rock's endorsment, Men at Work's significant contribution to music, and the 1998 Brazilian film Central Station.

Hello, sports fans! This week we decided to stick with the military dictatorship and talk about Brazil’s victorious 1970 World Cup campaign and why it was actually a huge political win for dictator-in-chief, Emílio Garrastazu Médici.

Hi, friends! Here we are, late. Again. But honestly, this one was a doozy. We had so much fun making it we’re not even sure there’s any substance to it and it was almost impossible to edit!
