“When you see somebody that doesn’t look like you going through things you can relate to, maybe the next time you see them they won’t be that foreign,” Castro says.

Castro eventually landed high-profile roles as Jaime Castro on the Comedy Central series “Broad City” and David Rodriguez on the Netflix series “Narcos,” but he said his earlier days taking on a variety of different parts is what truly prepared him to have his own show where he portrays myriad characters.

In its current iteration, Castro represents the spectrum of lives Latinos lead, portraying everything from an ICE agent to a father attempting to have the birds and the bees talk with his son to a nephew leaning on his tías after a rough breakup. This is why he sees “Alternatino” as a “bonding tool,” one that shows that Latino identity is “not something you have to overcome. It’s just something that you are.”
