La aventura de hablar español: Miguel de la Quadra-Salcedo
Descripción del Episodio
Todos tenemos personas que nos marcan de una manera u otra.
Pueden ser hermanos, padres, abuelos, amigos…
Y, de vez en cuando, aparece alguien que no solo deja huella en quienes le conocen, sino en generaciones enteras. Personas que tienen algo especial. No sé si es la actitud, la pasión con la que viven o esa curiosidad insaciable por el mundo.
En el episodio de hoy te cuento la historia de uno de esos hombres.
Un enamorado de los libros, la historia, el deporte, la ciencia y la aventura.
En realidad, estaba enamorado de la VIDA, así, en mayúsculas. Y contagiaba esa energía a todos los que tuvimos la suerte de cruzarnos con él.
Tuvo una vida de película: ganó una medalla olímpica (aunque después se la quitaron), fue condenado a muerte en el Congo, conoció a Gandhi, a Pablo Neruda, al Dalai Lama, a Salvador Allende o a Fidel Castro… y durante casi 40 años recorrió el mundo con miles de adolescentes en una especie de rito de iniciación que nos empujaba a mirar más lejos, ser más valientes y entender mejor el mundo.
Este mayo se han cumplido 10 años de su muerte y he querido rendirle mi pequeño homenaje contando su historia.
Muy pronto te presentaré un nuevo programa en el que estoy trabajando para que tú también puedas contar historias utilizando los diferentes pasados con seguridad 😉, Regístrate en mi web para recibir toda la información, puedes hacerlo AQUÍ.___________________________________________
We all have people who leave a mark on us in one way or another.
They might be siblings, parents, grandparents, friends…
And, every now and then, someone comes along who leaves a lasting impression not only on those who know them, but on entire generations. People who have something special. I don't know if it's their attitude, the passion with which they live, or that insatiable curiosity about the world.
In today's episode, I'll tell you the story of one of those men.
A lover of books, history, sports, science, and adventure.
Actually, he was in love with LIFE, in all its capital letters. And he shared that energy with everyone who was lucky enough to cross paths with him.
He lived a life straight out of a movie: he won an Olympic medal (although it was later taken away), was sentenced to death in the Congo, met Gandhi, Pablo Neruda, the Dalai Lama, Salvador Allende, and Fidel Castro… and for almost 40 years he traveled the world with thousands of teenagers in a kind of rite of passage that encouraged us to look further, be braver, and better understand the world.
This May marked the 10th anniversary of his death, and I wanted to pay my small tribute by telling his story.
I'll soon be presenting a new program I'm working on so you too can confidently tell stories using different past tenses 😉, Register on my website if you want to receive all the information. You can do so HERE.

The Last 12 Weeks
By shows
In 1992, David Wood was convicted of murdering young women and girls and burying them in the desert outside El Paso, earning him the nickname the Desert Killer. More than 30 years later, his lawyers have one last chance to argue his innocence and stop his execution. “The Last 12 Weeks” follows a team of capital defense lawyers as they try to save their client’s life. The series, produced by Serial Productions and The New York Times in collaboration with The Marshall Project, focuses on the high stakes and at times bizarre work involved in trying to halt an execution. With an extraordinary level of access to a capital case in its final stretch, the longtime death penalty reporter Maurice Chammah takes listeners into the room with the lawyers as the clock ticks down. Maurice and Alvin Melathe, a producer, follow members of the defense team as they look for alternate suspects, try to find new evidence to poke holes in the case, and track down hard-to-find witnesses. In the end, will the lawyers’ efforts be enough to persuade a deeply skeptical court system — and stop an execution three decades in the making? “The Last 12 Weeks.” A five-part series … on a deadline.
