Luna Girón hosts her first episode as Camila Núñez, after nine years, appears for her final show.
1. Las Voces del Libro, produced by the editorial team of Universidad del Rosario and broadcast on Rosario Radio, celebrates its 10th anniversary on December 3, 2025 with a special retrospective episode.
2. Host Luna Girón, appearing for her first time as conductor of the program, is joined by Camila Núñez, who has been part of the show since her debut on September 7, 2016 and is broadcasting her final episode.
3. The episode's thesis is a structured retrospective: to honor the decade of the show by hearing directly from the people who built it, episode by episode, year by year.
4. The show's first episode aired Tuesday, November 24, 2015, and featured the book 'Del este de Europa al sur de América: migraciones soviéticas y possoviéticas a Bucaramanga, Santander' (2012) by Mayra Alejandra Umañas y Fuentes.
5. Gustavo Orjuela, identified as the first interviewer on the show, sent a recorded message recalling his interview with professor Tomás Ordóñez about Soviet migrations to Bucaramanga and expressing gratitude to the editorial team.
6. Claudia Luque Molano, who participated in 2016, describes the show's first Christmas special as a formative moment where academic publishing discussion was paired with traditional Colombian holiday music, producing what she calls 'conocimiento que también puede celebrarse.'
7. Leity Pimienta, locutora between 2018 and 2019, is credited by Camila with broadening the show's musical palette and is remembered alongside production staff Diego Garzón, Luis Izquierdo, Juan Carlos Ruiz, Mario Castro, Sebastián Ríos, and Nelson Duarte.
8. Laura Ballesteros, producer and locutora from 2019 to 2022, names two specific program formats she remembers: 'Que Leen los Profes,' which interviewed Rosario faculty about their personal reading habits, and programs produced in alliance with book distributor Siglo del Hombre featuring editors from Impedimenta, Ediciones Godot, and Nórdica Libros.
9. Julia Martínez Estrada, who joined as a journalism intern and panelist from October 2020 to January 2023, says the show opened her path into editorial studies and now works at Siglo del Hombre.
10. Santiago Aparicio, identified as an anthropologist from Rosario, describes his entire involvement with the show as occurring during the COVID-19 lockdown, a period when he had lost his job and found that preparing and broadcasting the program gave structure and psychological relief to an otherwise disorienting daily life.
11. Valentina Sánchez Vélez, panelist from 2020 to 2022, names a specific episode with author Manuel Felipe Rodríguez about his ethnography on street gangs ('combos') and social regulation in Medellín as her most memorable segment.
12. Carol Ríos, who participated in 2023, describes how interviewing authors about the doubts and motivations behind their work changed how she understood literature as a process rather than a product.
13. Luna reveals two quantitative milestones for the 10th anniversary: 385 total episodes produced and 22,603 cumulative downloads across all platforms.
14. The show maintains active distribution partnerships with Spotify, Deezer, HiHi Radio, Radio.Garden, and Apple Podcasts, and social media presence on X, Instagram, Facebook, YouTube, and TikTok under Editorial U Rosario.
15. Two ongoing editorial alliances are highlighted: Ciclo Librerías y Distribuidoras, represented by librero Felipe Grismaldo, and UNE (Unión de Editores Universitarias Españolas), through which the show has aired approximately three episodes in 2025 featuring Spanish university publishers.
16. Camila reflects that the segment 'Que Leen los Profes' drew student audiences by revealing personal sides of Rosario professors — their favourite books, musical tastes, and library organization — alongside their academic profiles.
17. The episode opens with 'Somos Dos' by Bomba Estéreo, chosen by Luna for its cumbia-electro energy as a sonic frame for collective celebration.
18. The format is a warm, conversational retrospective between two hosts with pre-recorded audio messages woven in; there is no live studio debate, and the tone is consistently reflective and celebratory.
19. Listeners who work in academic publishing, radio production, or studied at Universidad del Rosario will find the most resonance.
20. Listeners seeking analysis of specific books, author interviews, or non-Spanish content will not find it in this episode.
