Spanish Radio Host Don Cheto on Mobilizing Latin Voters and His 20-Year Legacy On-Air: It’s ‘My Responsibility to Evolve’
Thania Garcia Ryan Seacrest, Howard Stern, Larry King… and Don Cheto? While the first three multi-hyphenates on that list might rule English-language radio, Don Cheto and his “Don Cheto Al Aire” show have a been a fixture of Spanish-language radio for 20 years. Every morning from Monday to Friday, between 6-10 a.m., Don Cheto’s loud and croaky voice narrates humorous takes on current events while singles from the burgeoning música mexicana genre play between segments. Listeners phone in to discuss everything from their relationship woes to cultural moments, like what new releases are hot on Netflix or the latest celebrity gossip or general news.
