Però aquesta hipòtesi resta inconclusa, i tal i com cita el periodista i muixeranguer Pau Pertegaz, els orígens de la muixeranga podrien tindre vinculacions amb la població negra africana i esclava de l’antiga Corona d’Aragó...2023-10-1625 min

MamboMambo: Caliente caliente eh-ohVALÈNCIA. Tras todo el revuelo del Valencia Culinary Festival, pensábamos que el ritmo bajaría. Sin embargo, esta semana viene más caliente que un ensayo de Luna de Miguel. Porque empezará con el corazón encogido, como cuando empieza algo que sabes que va a acabar, pero terminará ardiendo como el asfalto. El lunes se romperá el corazón esmeralda del sueño. Carlo cierra y será la última oportunidad de disfrutar de uno de los últimos hosteleros de raza que quedan en la ciudad. Pero poco a poco recuperaremos el habla, la energía y ese desconsuel...2022-06-1300 min
CCCC PodcastEp 02 | Emergency On Planet EarthVivim un moment delicat. El planeta terra està sent atacat per l’acció de l’ésser humà des de múltiples fronts. Experts com el meteoròleg Jordi Payà o l’ambientòleg Andreu Escrivà ens aporten informacions valuoses.

MamboLos reyes del mamboVALÈNCIA. Tras un inicio de mes un tanto caótico, con esas lluvias torrenciales tan descontroladas como exuberantes, poco a poco nos adentramos en ese momento mágico del año que terminará con el solsticio de verano. No hay mejor momento para disfrutar de la ciudad que entre mayo y junio. La luz es preciosa, el clima es templado y la noche invita a dar largos paseos o a inundar las terrazas. València vuelve a vibrar con un sinfín de eventos, exposiciones, foros, conciertos… en definitiva: València se inunda de mambo. Y como esto va de ser...2022-05-0900 min
MamboMambo: El mes de las floresVALÈNCIA. Tras dos lunes festivos vuelve el Mambo a la ciudad. Y es una pena porque durante estas semanas se nos han pasado dos de mis citas anuales favoritas del año: el día del libro y el de la madre. Dos días en los que regalo lo mismo: libros y flores.

También hay fiesta del cine, alguna exposición y jornadas gastronómicas. Entre medias comeremos y beberemo...2022-05-0200 min
