Sebastian Robles and Josh Leyva have been in the social
media game since before the word “influencer” existed, and they know the
internet inside and out. As connoisseurs of music, fashion, and culture, La Plática
hosts Sebas and Josh are bringing you a fresh perspective into music &
entertainment, trends, fashion, and more, one plática at a time.
In a culture raised on machismo, Josh and Sebas not only show us that
gentlemen exist, but also serve as an example of what confident and emotionally
mature men can aspire to be. It’s this rare perspective that sets them apart from
the rest, bringing a unique point of view to every discussion.
Through candid conversations with their guests, Sebas and Josh get to know
them for who they really are - behind the cameras, beyond their social platforms,
and their professions. Get to know all kinds of people doing cool things, including
Latino trailblazers in music, content creation, film, and science, just to name a
few.
