In this bonus episode, we sit down with an actual Puerto Rican Christian to get their perspective on Bad Bunny’s Super Bowl halftime show and the broader cultural reaction surrounding it.
This conversation goes beyond hot takes. We explore the cultural significance of the performance, what it meant for Puerto Rican identity, and why questions of citizenship, belonging, and representation still carry emotional weight.
We also discuss:
The historical and political backdrop of Puerto Rico’s relationship with the United States
Why the performance resonated deeply with many Puerto Ricans
The controversy surrounding explicit lyrics and public morality
The tension between cultural pride and Christian discernment
What representation in media does — and doesn’t — accomplish
Rather than reacting from a distance, this episode creates space for a thoughtful, faith-informed perspective from someone personally connected to the culture being discussed.
