It really is.
Katarina SzulcGUEST
Did you see what I posted yesterday? There were, um, car bombs and IEDs going off in Zacatecas, Mexico, because there's a very active cell of CJNG in Zacatecas called Fuerza Zacatecas Nueva Generación, so New Generation Zacatecas Forces.
Katarina SzulcGUEST
It's a sub-cell of CJNG.
Katarina SzulcGUEST
And there's someone who I've actually been-- who's kind of on my radar within that cell who's been really quickly climbing through the ranks of power, and it's very clear that this cell of CJNG is becoming a very violent and powerful one.

Then I moved to the city.

I worked as a night watchman and also as a warehouse loader, until a friend got me a job at a transportation company as a warehouse assistant.

Both teach you how to read the sky.
speaker_5NARRATOR
Both allow you to know the country in a way very few people ever get to experience.
speaker_5NARRATOR
The difference is that on the road sometimes the loneliness is broken by the presence of someone who shouldn't be there, and that was exactly what happened to me seven months ago on Federal Highway 49, between Zacatecas and San Luis Potosi, on a stretch that at night is one of the loneliest I have ever driven in my entire life.
speaker_5NARRATOR
The route was from Zacatecas to Tampico.

Ernesto López PortilloGUEST
Nosotros publicamos en la agenda que llamamos estructural, que es la permanente del programa, publicamos mapas nacionales interactivo de enfrentamientos del ejército con grupos criminales en todo el país.
Ernesto López PortilloGUEST
So they don't talk about media, civil society organizations, like Chiapas or Baja California or Zacatecas, because we publish information that has to do with what they are already living.
Ernesto López PortilloGUEST
So, on the one hand, it is an agenda with national reach.
Ernesto López PortilloGUEST
When we propose a legal reform to the president of the republic, people from different states of the republic also look for us because they are reforms, for example, to improve the national public security system.
Sergio AvilaGUEST
Running started because I started chasing my dad.

I grew up in a small town in central Mexico called Zacatecas.
Sergio AvilaGUEST
Zacatecas is desert land and it is the land of the indigenous Zacatecos.

And one of my dreams, the personal dream, not the professional dream that I had when I was a kid was to be a soccer player.
Sergio AvilaGUEST
And from now on, I'm going to say football.
La Diva de MéxicoHOST

AllieHOST
So that's my mother's side.
AllieHOST
They're from Zacatecas.
AllieHOST
My father's side, we don't really know a whole lot about the lineage that came directly from Mexico.
AllieHOST
But I will say like in comparison to when I was looking at my mother's genealogy and I was talking to my grandmother and she was passing down some of the genealogical information before she passed away, she was sharing with us the names of her relatives and they were all very Spanish.
El último huéspedHOST
This happened in the middle of 2019, when we walked a lot along the route of Toluca, Torreón and Coahuila.
El último huéspedHOST
On that route, we deviated from the city of San Luis to Zacatecas.
El último huéspedHOST
I had a partner named Carlos.
El último huéspedHOST
He came last on the convoy and I came ahead.
El último huéspedHOST
On the radio, he told me that we were going slowly, since his father, who is also a trailer, was just leaving San Luis Potosí.
El último huéspedHOST
Carlos already looked very disheveled because, out of necessity, he had made three trips in a row.
El último huéspedHOST
From Zacatecas to San Luis, it's like 230 kilometers of solitude and it was already 1 a.m.
El último huéspedHOST
I don't know when he got lost.
