This podcast episode examines the pivotal moments in Argentine history during the rise of Juan Perón and his connection with the working class through the "descamisados," a term denoting shirtless workers. It details Perón's political ideology, known as Peronism, and how public demonstrations—particularly on October 17, 1945—solidified his and Eva Perón’s political partnerships. The transformation of Eva from an actress to a powerful political figure is explored, highlighting her strategic efforts to connect with the working class and reshape her identity alongside Perón, ultimately cementing their legacy in Argentine politics.
