De Eso No Se Habla is an intimate and poignant exploration of the silences that shape our lives, with Isabel Cadenas Cañón delicately unpacking the stories we often leave untold. With a keen eye for the overlooked and a deft narrative touch, the podcast dives into the unspoken aspects of history, memory, and mental health, unraveling the weight of societal taboos and their impact on personal identity. It’s a quietly powerful series, urging listeners to confront what remains hidden, both within individuals and communities.

"A podcast about silences and how to break them. Individual silences, family silences, collective silences. Isabel Cadenas Cañón has managed to build a loyal community thanks to her sensitivity and interest in telling stories about the hidden side of Spanish history."

- Andrea Morán, Ferrándiz. Alrededor de un asesino en serie/Los expulsados del paraíso. Sobrevivir a los Testigos de Jehová

De eso no se habla is a podcast that thrives on the margins, a highly produced narrative show about the things families, societies, and even entire nations prefer to leave unspoken. Isabel Cadenas Cañón isn’t content with mere excavation—she takes silence itself as her subject, showing how it calcifies into memory and, in turn, becomes history. The show has the rhythm of a whispered confession, yet it’s never indulgent; instead, it presses on the listener with the weight of everything omitted, everything edited out of the official record. Cadenas Cañón’s voice is steady, searching, always just shy of elegiac, as if she knows that speaking aloud is both defiance and futility. The program’s brilliance lies in its patience: a refusal to sensationalize, a trust that listeners will lean in. In its quietness, it’s more radical than many louder, showier productions pretending to break taboos..
