Miami, September 25, 2023 – The debut of the second season of the En Boca Cerrada podcast series set new records for what is already one of the most successful Spanish-language narrative podcast limited series ever.
In just its first week of release, the second season of En Boca Cerrada became the top Spanish language podcast in the U.S. and is the highest charting Spanish-language podcast in the country for all of 2023. In Mexico, the second season of En Boca Cerrada became the country’s top podcast in just its first week of release, hitting #1 on both Spotify’s and on Apple’s Top Podcasts Charts. Downloads of the series in the debut week of the second season more than doubled the average weekly downloads during season one, which itself was a record-breaking success.
The podcast focuses on Raquenel, formerly known as “Mary Boquitas”, and her involvement in one of the biggest scandals in the Latin world. For the first time ever Raquenel tells the story of what really happened, unfiltered and uncensored, including her relationship with superstar Gloria Trevi and producer/manager Sergio Andrade, the worldwide manhunt to arrest them on charges of abduction and corruption of minors, their years in jail together, and their trial—which made headlines around the world.
En Boca Cerrada is a joint production of Uforia and Pitaya Entertainment. It was written and co-produced by Raquenel and award-winning journalist María García.
While podcasts have exploded in popularity in the general market, Latino consumption of Spanish language podcasts has lagged. According to Edison Research, only 33% of U.S. Latinos have ever listened to a podcast in Spanish. The success of En Boca Cerrada shows that is changing.
The first five episodes of the second season of En Boca Cerrada are now available on the Uforia app, and the first three episodes are available on all other podcast platforms. New episodes are released every Thursday.
Like the first season, the second season of En Boca Cerrada will be comprised of 10 episodes. The ten episodes of the first season of En Boca Cerrada remain available on all major podcast platforms and via https://www.pitaya.fm/en-boca-cerrada/
