Historical interview recorded at eRadio's studios in Bogotá on October 8, 2015, with Alberto Cepeda Zubieta and María Victoria García. A piece of journalistic memory on radio, communication and Colombian political context.

Historical record from Nelson Vahos’s archive, recorded at eRadio’s studios in Bogotá, Colombia, on Thursday, October 8, 2015.

María Victoria García, wife of Francisco “Pacho” Santos, presented aspects of Francisco Santos’s political platform — the former Vice President of Colombia and, at the time, an active figure in Bogotá politics — during his bid for the Mayor’s Office of Bogotá.

Alberto Cepeda Zubieta spoke about radio and the way radio was made in his era, and confirmed on the recording that he was the official voice of Marlboro for Latin America.

Why This Piece Matters

The interview carries documentary value for bringing together, in a single broadcast, radio history, professional testimony and the political context of an important period in Colombian communication.
