Who are 'La Pija y la Quinqui', the podcast that Pedro Sánchez has asked to go to by surprise?

Pedro Sánchez is in full swing on national television, like the rest of the political leaders who are going to risk everything in the elections on July 23. The current President of the Government went to the set of El Hormiguero a few days ago to face Pablo Motos in a harsh interview in which the presenter did not come off very well, especially for social networks.

A few hours ago, the date of the meeting between Ana Rosa Quintana and Sánchez was confirmed in El Programa de AR, which will take place next Tuesday, July 4. And it is that the leader of the PSOE has proposed to go to all possible spaces. But there is something that was not foreseen, and that is that he accepted the request to go to the podcast of La Pija y la Quinqui, one of the programs most followed by young people

"Do you want to come to the end of the season? @sanchezcastejon", the two friends blurted out on their social networks. A question that took a few hours to receive an answer from Pedro Sánchez. "Wishing to go. Tell me when and where. I'll be there. Thanks for the invitation!" replied the leader of the Socialists. A replica that, in a short time, has managed to exceed 45,000 'likes' on Twitter.

Pedro Sánchez surprised people on social networks by responding to the offer launched by La Pija and La Quinqui in which they invited the president to have a conversation with them. Far from being a harsh interview, the podcast created by Carlos Peguer and Mariang Maturana is characterized by their talks about their private lives and the casual and informal tone they use.

It is not surprising that Sánchez wants to attend this podcast, taking into account that it is one of the ones that has achieved the most growth in listeners in recent months in Spain.

With the passing of the episodes, they have become two of the characters best known by young people on social networks. A podcast that began its journey in 2022 and that introduced itself as "two friends who are completely crazy."

Carlos Peguer is from Extremadura and Mariang from Murcia, but they live in Madrid and they met on social media. Although they started their show independently, it didn't take long for them to receive the invitation from Spotify. And it is that there are already several celebrities who have wanted to attend this hooligan program.

Rosalía was the first who dared to sit down with La Pija and La Quinqui to have a fun time between glasses of wine and mugs of beer. After her, personalities such as Aitana, Nathy Peluso, Brays Efe and Sebastián Yatra passed through those microphones.

Apart from this podcast, the couple of friends also works on the radio program Cuerpos Especiales de Europa FM and they came to be among the collaborators of RTVE's Gen Playz. Now we only have to wait to see Pedro Sánchez commenting on the love affairs of La Pija and La Quinqui, without a doubt, something that nobody expected could happen.
