Born from pandemic-era curiosity and a shocking declassified CIA document from the JFK files, this historical fiction podcast series explores the true, explosive events leading up to the Revolution of 1959. We follow the chaotic, interconnected lives of student leaders like José Antonio Echeverría, regime enforcers like Fulgencio Batista, and the enigmatic Rolando Cubela—a revolutionary assassin who fought alongside the Castros before plotting to take them down from the inside.
