In this wacky episode of Lost in Translation, Samantha and Luis are back with a mix of news, personal confessions, and cultural comparisons. They kick things off by reflecting on recent world events, before Samantha boldly admits her undying crush on a certain idol (yes, he’s still got it—and yes, Luis has thoughts).
Things take a turn as they dive into the topic of domestic help, comparing how different cultures approach having maids or housekeepers—and why it’s way more common in some parts of the world than others. Of course, it wouldn’t be a proper episode without a few hilarious interruptions from their self-appointed cohost, Lola, who’s on maximum cheeky mode today.
Expect laughs, playful debates, and a lot of real talk in this fun and slightly chaotic episode!
