Behind the Mic Podcast

Sal has just moved to Miami and is going to a magnet middle school to study magic. Listeners soon find out that Sal not only excels at sleight-of-hand but can also tear holes into alternate universes and bring things (and people!) into his own universe. Narrator Anthony Rey Perez skillfully interprets this delightful mix of realistic and fantastical events and nimbly switches between English and Spanish. Listeners will love hearing Sal and Gabi’s banter and growing friendship, the loving support of their Cuban-American families, and their out-of-this-world escapades as they try to make things right.
