Erazno y La Chokolata, a comedy staple for U.S. Latino audiences for over two decades, is set to launch a new video podcast titled “Erazno y La Chokolata En Video.” Distributed by reVolver Podcasts, the video podcast will release original content three times a week, providing fans with a fresh way to engage with the show’s beloved characters and humor. This expansion is significant because it allows the program to reach audiences on visual platforms without abandoning its successful audio format, reflecting the evolving media consumption habits of Latino listeners.
The new video podcast will complement, not replace, the daily radio show and audio podcast, which will continue their regular schedules. Fans can still enjoy the familiar mix of comedy, celebrity interviews, parodies, sports, pop culture, and segments like El Chokolatazo. By adding a visual component, the show can now showcase the physical comedy, expressions, and behind-the-scenes energy that were previously limited to audio. This move is important because it caters to the growing demand for video content while preserving the essence of what made the radio program a hit.
Jack Hobbs, president of reVolver Podcasts, emphasized the significance of this expansion. “Oswaldo has spent more than two decades creating characters and moments that feel like part of the family for millions of Latinos,” Hobbs said. “The video gives audiences an entirely new way to experience his extraordinary talent. ‘Erazno y Chokolata En Video’ preserves everything fans love about the daily show while allowing Oswaldo and his team to be even more creative, visual and spontaneous.” This quote underscores how the new format not only honors the show’s legacy but also opens doors for greater creative freedom.
Created and hosted by Oswaldo Díaz, the show features a cast of original characters, including Erazno, the masked lucha libre champion. Díaz’s vocal versatility and impersonation skills have made the program a cultural touchstone. Humor has always played a vital role in Hispanic culture, bringing families together and helping communities navigate challenges. By translating that humor to video, Erazno y La Chokolata can deepen its connection with audiences, making the experience even more immersive and relatable.
The video podcast will also allow the creative team to develop visual sketches, original features, and interviews tailored for digital audiences. This is crucial as more Latinos turn to on-demand and video-first platforms for entertainment. reVolver Podcasts, a leading multicultural content distributor, continues to expand its reach. Its recent partnership with Claro USA brings its catalog to Claro Música Pulso, serving over 500,000 subscribers. reVolver content is available on major platforms like Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Pandora, Deezer, the iHeartRadio app, Amazon Music, and the reVolver Podcasts App via the Samsung Galaxy Store and Roku streaming devices, as well as at www.revolverpodcasts.com.
New episodes of “Erazno y Chokolata En Video” will be released three times each week. The daily radio program and audio podcast remain accessible on participating stations and major podcast platforms. This launch matters because it signals a strategic adaptation to changing media landscapes, ensuring that a cherished comedy brand remains relevant and accessible to its audience. It also highlights the growing importance of video in podcasting, particularly for multicultural content. By embracing video, Erazno y La Chokolata is not only expanding its reach but also reinforcing its role as a cultural connector for Latinos across the United States.
