MP3•Pagina principale dell'episodio

In this podcast episode, we explore the origin and rich Mexican tradition of the Day of the Holy Innocents, celebrated on December 28th. Throughout the episode, we unravel the biblical story behind this commemoration, which remembers the massacre of children ordered by King Herod, as told in the Gospel of Matthew. However, in Mexico, this date has taken on a more festive tone, transforming into a day of jokes and pranks, similar to April Fools' Day in other countries. With a mix of humor and reflection, we discuss how families, friends, and the media participate in this tradition, bringing with them a series of customs and popular anecdotes that make this day uniquely Mexican. We also analyze how this celebration reflects aspects of Mexican culture, such as community spirit, humor, and resilience. Join us in understanding why December 28th remains a date that, beyond the pranks, is a symbol of Mexico’s history and folklore.
