My guest today is actor Juan Pablo Raba who co-stars in Liam Neeson’s border thriller The Marksman out on streaming now. He plays Mauricio, a Mexican cartel soldier out to retrieve his missing prize. We tackle Hollywood’s fixation with border stories and why Juan Pablo believes border stories need to continue to be told. We also debate The Marksman’s “white savior” narrative and why he believes the movie is really a “brown savior” film.

Then I review J Balvin's 'Boy From Medellin' documentary.
