In this episode we talk about the only Mexican novela to star an American actor: Dos Mujeres Un Camino, starring Erik Estrada of CHiPs fame. This novela written by Emilio Larrosa, Alejandro Pohlenz, and Veronica Suarez, was a hit sensation, due in part, to it's star studded cast that featured everyone from Laura Leon to Selena (RIP). The main storyline is chauvinistic and sleezy as fuck, but it's also hilariously terrible. Honestly, you can save yourself the trouble of watching it, and just listen to your recap. You're welcome.  Cast:  Gloria De Leon (IG: gloria.the.actress) Delia Gomez (IG: itsdeliagomez) Noveleando theme song written, performed, and produced by: Shireen Amini Find us on Instagram @NoveleandoPodcast Contact: If you would like to contact us, please email us at NoveleandoPodcast@gmail.com
