AOC Is Freezing Her Eggs — Fidel & Suzy on Family Planning, Latino Birth Rates & the Latino Sex Ed Problem

Hosts Fidel Martínez and Suzy Exposito dig into family planning: what it means for Latinos in 2026, why it's still taboo in our communities, and how much has changed in one generation.
The conversation starts with Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez openly sharing her process of freezing her eggs on Instagram, including the financial reality of paying out of pocket even as a member of Congress. Fidel and Suzy use that as a jumping-off point to break down the numbers: in 1950, the average woman in Latin America had 5.8 children. Today that number is 1.8. As the fertility rate declines in Latin America, Latinos in the U.S. are holding up the birth rate, accounting for 32% of all infants born.
They also get personal. Suzy talks about growing up in a Catholic family where women got the sex ed talk, but not her brothers, and navigating family planning as a queer woman. Meanwhile, Fidel dives into having his first child at 40, and how his perspectives on becoming a father shifted after experiencing grief.

From the Los Angeles Times and Sonoro comes the De Los Podcast — a weekly conversation where music, pop culture and Latinidad collide. Hosted by De Los editors Fidel Martínez and Suzy Exposito, the show pulls back the curtain on the stories, people and cultural moments shaping the Latino experience in the U.S. and beyond. Every episode is a front-row seat to conversations with the artists, actors, filmmakers and thinkers who are moving the culture forward — not just talking about it. Guests include Leslie Grace, Sen Dog of Cypress Hill, Xolo Maridueña, Fabrizio Guido, producer and singer Empress Of, among others. Think of it as the cultural conversation that major American media rarely makes room for — a space where Latinos get to talk, unfiltered, about what they create and who they are. Produced by Los Angeles Times, L.A. Times Studios, and Sonoro. New episodes every week — available on YouTube and all major podcasts.
