TUKI FASHION and MOTORCYCLE STUNTS - Episode #55
Do you remember the golden age of Pogs, Yu-Gi-Oh!, and piñatas overflowing with candy? 🇻🇪
Join Luis Álamo, Samuel Rodríguez (Sampins), and Alejandro López on Fuera del Perol, the podcast that transports you back to Venezuela in the '90s and 2000s with humor, anecdotes, and great vibes.
In this episode, we revisit the boleta culture and the tuki urban tribe: their origins, fashion, music, and traditions. Were you a tuki? Do you identify with the boleta culture?
We also enjoy anise liqueur and toast to the memories while discussing new versions of urban songs and the Netflix series "Bridgerton." Don't miss this nostalgic trip. Subscribe, turn on notifications, and join us on Patreon for the extended version and Alejandro's boleta quiz.
