Do they see any hope that they might get a shot?
Well, Nancy Updike and reporter Ana Yancey Diaz-Cortez reached out to one of those people and talked to her.
She said all kinds of interesting and eye-opening things that we have not heard elsewhere in the coverage.
So what you're about to hear, you'll hear Ana Yancey interpreting.
She's helped us with all of our Venezuela coverage.
And what you're going to hear is her live translation recorded during the conversation.
So it's not word for word exact, but it's close.
Because this conversation is so of this moment, we thought it made the most sense to put it out now and not wait for some theme or something.
Hence this extra episode this week that you're listening to.
Here's Nancy Updike.
Nancy Updike is one of the producers of our show.
Since she did this interview, the Venezuelan government has released some political prisoners.
The government of Delce Rodriguez has been talking about expanding diplomatic ties with the United States.
President Trump has said that Venezuela cannot hold elections until the United States can, quote, rebuild the country.
This mini-episode was put together by Nancy, with Ana Yancey Diaz-Cortez, Lars Darcheski, Dorothy Kronick, Helena Carpio, Stone Nelson, Suzanne Gabber, and me.
We have a whole new regular episode this week.
As I said, it's really good.
It's called New Lord Drop.
