Yoatzi I would definitely contact a lawyer in regards to your situation with Travis’s dad. Mistake me if I am wrong but you could actually apply for your papeles through a domestic violence case & especially because there are police reports.

I didn’t know Yoatzi wasn’t born here I hope she’s able to fix her documents soon Mexico is such a great place to visit

Yoatzi, you need to go to Mexico and bring Ella to get a picture with 5 generations of women in your family

i cried when you mentioned how your family members have your products and collabs on display 🥺🥺 family is everything

Okaaaaaaay guys ima need this to drop at like 7am porque thursdays at work dont start until i have my pretty not smart fix.

seeing where your parents are from and how they grew up is such a special feeling you cant explain🫶🏽😭

Why doesn’t Louie sponsor Yoatzi? daca here too girlie. It’s been sucking my whole life 🥺 I’m so glad she’s speaking about it!

since louie went to mexicooo, have him spell bat in spanish (Murciélago). PNS is literally my highlight of every week, i love you guys!

The guy you saw at the airport is named Jaime Maussan! My aunt works for him 🥰 he’s an Alien ufologist. Also love the Teotihuacán pyramids!! My family lives 20 min away & I never get tired of going.

I can’t believe how common our stories are! I was also born in Mexico City and came here when I was very little. I went through the whole DACA process too and my grandpa passed away while I was in the process of getting my residency. It hurt me so much because I felt like there was no way I could just go back, because of my immigration status. I just went back for the first time in 24 years 2 months ago and seeing the love Yoatzi has for her family and culture is so relatable because I feel the same way!! My family is also from Michoacán so the whole time I was like…” are we related? 👀 “ lol So happy for you Louie! Yoatzi I can’t wait for you to go back! 🩷🇲🇽

42 min in when Louie said he bawled his eyes out at night i immediately started crying because up until that moment i was feeling all the beautiful emotions right along with him! 🫶🏻💜

His name is Jaime Maussan he is a Mexican journalist and ufologist 🛸.

This was such a cute, wholesome and emotional video you guys 🥺❤ it's so cute hearing you guys talk about your family and how close you guys are, even if you barely ever see them. And I love how humble you guys are, too. It's nice to see that you guys don't take everything in your lives for granted, and you stay true to yourselves and don't forget your roots. You guys are the best, love y'all 🫶🏻🫶🏻

I loved this episode because all my grandparents have passed except my paternal grandma, and I don’t have the priviledge of leaving the country and coming back so it hurts. But I can imagine how beautiful and heart warming it must feel to be back where your parents grew

Another DACA girlie here.. I feel Yoatzi on this so much. Wanting to go see my whole family but not being able to is so difficult. Glad Louie was able to experience it ❤

I really loved when yall talked about your bisabuela especially about the generation she’s from. My grandfather is turning 104 in October and thinking back, we didn’t think he would even reach 100 back in 2020 when we were gonna go for his birthday in El Salvador (but the pandemic happened). It’s crazy to think of the life he’s had and putting into perspective other world events that he was alive for and the many stories el viejito can tell to this day about the past. Love yall and just wanted to share the value of having such an old loving soul in a growing family and wish that others have that kind of opportunity because it’s valuable.

4:18 fun fact, it was originally spelled Mejico bc spaniards were idiots. The original native spelling and pronunciation led to Mexico with the x.

Me every time Yoatzi would go “aww🥺” or “rlly?🥹” *me* “bro stfu you finna make me cry again and I’m in public rn😭” es algo tan especial poder ver de donde vienen tus raíces. Me agrada que Louie se la pasó bien 🥹🫶

Wow I got so emotional watching this episode. I never like to comment because I get shy, but I was crying watching the video. I am also under DACA so I definitely understand how Yoatzi feels and how happy I am for Louie to be able to go back to Mexico. I hope I get to see my family back in Mexico, I’ll be praying yoatzi gets her advanced parole so that she is able to live the full experience. Love you guys so much and I definitely want to hear more stories of your parents🩷

Those family members are genuine, bc they don’t pretend to support you, they’re not envious! And them keeping all your collab/merch stuff proves that 🥺🩵

Make Louie spell “Acquaintance” haha loved this episode! Your family seems so loving and genuine.

Yoatzi. Idk if you know but with what valence with your baby boys dad. You can get your green card. It’s direct trauma by a us citizen. (Idk if he is but if he is. Then you can)

Today has been a very shitty day for me! Then I realized today is Thursday, y’all are the best. I love how funny y’all are, already feeling better 🤍 Also I love Mexico City, my family are chicanos & it’s where I would spend all my childhood summers 🫶🏼

aw i feel like when louie was talking ab all the things he did over in mexico and visited his family it really hit me🥲 i cannot wait to go and visit my family for the first time it’s gonna be so wholesome for me and to make all the memories, listening to louie talking ab it i just can’t wait🥹🥹

My fav podcast!!!! Literally I look crazy laughing when my AirPods are in😂💕💜

this episode really touched me. my dads parents and grandparents are alive and everytime i go to gto i love being with them and seeing where my dad grew up. its very emotional. and even though my grandparents from my moms side arent here with us anymore, i also love going to la ciudad with her family and seeing the streets they once ran in and how they lived their life before us. mexico is truly a special place for many of us. i love imagining how my parents once were and how they would be as kids. it so cool to see where they grew up. such a mind calming place.

My family is from Michoacán! There is so much to do and lots of different experiences to do. You should definitely plan a trip to go there 🫶🏼

I always skip videos like this because it hurts me to not be able to go back to Mexico. I didn’t have a chance to say goodbye to any of my grandparents so I avoid to watch videos of people who reunite with their loved ones, but from the bottom of my heart I feel so happy for Loui for going back to visit. I went to check the pictures on his instagram and it made me cry 😭.

Guys!! Please bring Daus to the podcast it would be so iconic 😩🩷

with yoatzi’s traumatic experience in 2021, i think she might be eligible for a U Visa

Bring your parents back! Would love to see their reactions and hear their stories from pictures you took Louie!

I did advanced parole in 2017. Highly recommend!

When ever you fly international (Mexico or outside the USA) you neeeed to be there 3 hrs. early. To check in your bags, then immigration, then you have to find your gate, (which most of the time is super far 🙄) Yeah it’s a lot . Yes 3 hrs early minimum.

Omg I love this so much ! Mexican family bonds especially back then is such a heart warming feeling ❤❤ it just brings back so much childhood memories 😢 I wish I could go back in time and enjoy every single moment 💔💔 I lost my grandma and grandpa and it’s been so hard 💔 I only have one grandma left 😭 your so lucky Louie I’m so happy you got to experience that feeling again take so much pictures enjoy every moment with them ❤❤❤

Word of the century: Phlegm 🤭 since everyone has been getting sick 🥲🥲🥲😫 Love you guyssss 💖🥰 Thanks for always keeping us in the loop 💕💕🥺 like TikTok shop DUPEE 🤭😂❤️

Omg I LOVE how your aunt and uncles and family in Mexico support y’all!! That’s rare coming from Mexican families. There’s usually envy and jealously! Love it 🥰

Omg I’m a Castro and my family is from Michoacán too. My sisters and I have joked and said we are the other Castro Sisters :)

I wait every week for this podcast I love yall Louie and yoatzi 🫶🏽

Omg this episode hit so hard 🥺 my parents are from El DF and I am also on DACA. I have not been to Mexico since I was 4, so I don't have very many memories of my time there. Growing up was always so difficult not having family here in the States, and I always grew up feeling like there was a missing part of me. I got so emotional when Louie started describing his experiences there. My mom was deported in 2017 and I have 3 younger siblings who were born here and they were able to visit her and the rest of my family during school breaks and it would always break me to take them to the airport. I felt so alone when they were gone and sometimes felt myself getting resentful or envious that my siblings got to experience my birthplace before I could 😪🤧 I feel that I feel whole when I finally get to visit 🥲 I'm so happy for you Louie, I love that the Castros are so family oriented and share sentimental moments like this. Praying you get to visit soon as well, Yoatzi! One day, we'll cross paths, and we'll share our stories of going back for the first time, manifesting it 🤞

My fam is from CDMX and moved there from Michoacán! Thank you guys for sharing your story, your life, your family! 🩷💜🩷💜

ugh this episode is so special💝my family & I are not from here & my parents haven’t seen their family in almost 20 years and my heart hurts for both my parents all the time. It makes me happy to see that Louie was able to experience being with his family & share such beautiful moments! 🫂💝

20:05 i relate so much ❤️ i have my great grandma still alive and seeing her is the best feeling in the world! my son has been able to meet her as well! su tatarabuela ❤️

I’m so glad your family received you with open arms. I can literally feel the love ❤ forever wishing I felt that every time we visit family in Mexico but instead it’s all fake love from them

This episode made me particularly emotional for some reason 😭 I’m literally hiding in the bathroom crying at work rn 😭🩷 I love how close knit and humble your family is and I wish so hard I had that. Louie & Yoa have such a special way of making the viewers feels like they’re that missing family/friends we have been craving 😭🫶🏻🫶🏻 I’m especially emotional right now bc of losing my dad a few months ago so the emotions are ALLL over the place

This touched my heart so much 💜 I’m in tears I would give up everything just to experience this again 😞

heartfelt episode❤🇲🇽!!!

Your dad being Miguel from coco lol , being a shoe cobbler 😭🫶🏻

I love when you corrected saying “our cousins” I always felt it was different that yall say “my mom/dad” with possession when speaking to each other. My sis and I just say “dad/mom” not “my dad/mom” 😂

Yesss perfect timing. Tengo que limpiar so AirPods on and podcast on🥰

Yayyy just in time ❤ having breakfast ❤

Yoatzi, I can totally relate to you! It’s a struggle only us immigrants can understand. God willing you’ll be able to visit soon♥️

Aw I know that feeling about your grandma and mother full circle moment ❤❤❤ I met her for the first time couple years ago, and I had to meet other family - I cried so hard because I didn’t wanna leave my grandma 🥹💝 it’s so so soooo surreal

I’m going to visit my family in Mexico after not seeing them in over 15+ years. Super excited and blessed to be able to go but nervous lol.

I just got back from my dads side of the family & learned so much about my dad & his family🥹❤️ mi familia hermosa Soak it all in🥰

This whole episode made me cry. Every time I visit my grandparents ranchos it is so emotional and I feel at peace. My whole family goes every summer at the end of June

omgosh my parents were neighbors too and thats how they met🤧 I loveee this podcast🩷 I just went to mexico last month and typically I go to puebla, but I went to CDMX and my tio took us everywhere & my dad grew up a part of his life there, so it was crazy to know where he worked at etc.
