The Sunday Funday Podcast, a celebrated weekly show spotlighting comedians, took a poignant turn last week when Marcela Alonso hosted a special episode honoring the late comedic legend Marilyn Martinez.

Marilyn Martinez, best known for her distinctive sassy humor and impactful work with the Original Latin Divas of Comedy and other Latina troupes, passed away in 2007 from complications arising from colon cancer at the age of 52. Her absence has been deeply felt within the comedy community.

Titled “Marilyn Martinez Tribute with Marcela Alonso and Co-Host Christy Miller,” the special edition of the podcast brought together two comedic minds who shared personal memories and hilarious anecdotes showcasing Martinez’s unmatched humor and radiant spirit.

Marcela Alonso, speaking about her motivation behind this episode, expressed, “Marilyn Martinez was ahead of her time and never received the recognition she so rightfully deserved. Through this tribute, we aim to celebrate her incredible talent and the lasting legacy she left behind.”
